How are you all??? I have been working a lot. I work 45 hours a week now. I wish so badly I could find a job where I could be with my family more. But that is the price we are paying for a new house. Speaking of my new house, Frank and I found out today that Madison has not approved Phase II of Oxford yet. That is why they have not started building yet. Looks like at the earliest it will be September when they start building it. I was so looking forward to being in my new house by Christmas, well we won't be. I am so dissappointed. Good things come to those who wait. That is what I keep telling myself. This give us more time to sell our house too. If we have not sold this one before we close on the new one Frank says we are still getting the new one. We can still sell this one. Anyway, I have missed all of you! My schedule is different almost everyday. That is the way it goes when you work in fast food. I am the first assistant manager at the one on the corner of Max Luther and the Parkway. It is the newer one. I have also been busy doing school supply shopping and school clothes shopping. I am not done with either one of them yet. I am doing great with my weight loss. Actually I wish I could quit loosing weight. I eat at the very least 6 times a day. And I snack in between. I do this just to maintain at 128. I went to the thrift store a few weeks ago and bought a size 2 pair of shorts. I came home couldn't button them, well yesterday I did button them. They are still tight and I won't wear them until I can fit into them, but I can button them. I wanted to be a size 10, but I got smaller. I wish I could get a breast job done. But my insurance won't cover it. Oh well....maybe one of these days. I am just talking about everything and I hope I don't bore any of you. Have any of you order from Swchan's? We had their beef guloush the other night and it was soooo good. We have already made a list of the other stuff we want to try. It is costly, but it is soooo good. Did I say that already?? LOL.... I am asking everyone I know cause I really need some help with this, we need a weekend babysitter. From 7:30am til 5:30pm and Saturday and Sunday. Sometimes it won't be for the whole time and sometimes it will. My hubby works weird shifts. In fact in about a month he will be off Saturday and Sundays for 4 weeks and then will have to start working them again. Anyway, if you know of anyone who would be interested please let me know. Or you can give them my phone number. We will pay them. Well my dear husband wants to go out for a few minutes. Ya'll take care and know that you all are in my thoughts and prayers. Love to all!! Linda

Things are looking up! I am so proud for you! I love you girl! Gail

Congratulations.....YEAH YEAH YEAH...I'm glad you got into school. I haven't seen you come by naked in my neighborhood yet....LOL Beth

Just got word - School is a GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now doing naked backflips in YOUR neighborhood!!! One hurdle down -- one to go!!! How do I spell RELIEF??? Her name is Alice -- and even though I am a closet heterosexual, if she were standing in front of me right now -- I'd kiss her!

Hell -- I got to thinking last night -- IF I can get into school next term and IF Colorado offers me a job -- I can do BOTH!!! The class is a weekend class -- Saturday/Sunday once a month for 3 months -- airfare is $430 roundtrip and I'd be taking home after taxes about $1200/mo. more than I do here (and the cost of living is cheaper there) -- so keep your fingers crossed that they BOTH work out in my favor!!! That would be the ultimate!
