Theres really three thousand people there!  It's actually bigger than I thought.  One of these days I want to travel around and really see what different places here are like.  For some reason when I think of a small place where you live I think of like twenty people there.ha

I was telling dh the other night I want to fly over to Juneau to see what it is like.  He has this thing about not wanting to move out of Alaska.  Well, Alaska is big! :)  I'm sure we can find somewhere we both like.  I absolutely LOVE Homer, always have.  But the jobs are scarce.  I also don't like the idea of no big malls there, no Fred Meyers, KMart, or even a Walmart.  I like my shopping too much, not sure if I can live without them.  Juneau is so close to Seattle  I think that might be a good spot for us....maybe. :)  Hmmmm, maybe I should suprise him with a week there sometime.  It will probably be the only way I ever get to see the place.  I also want to see Sitka!!  

For the scale, I have the same issues you do.  I have a WW scale that does program a few people on it but I've never worked it.  I just tried to figure it out for you but I couldn't get it to work.  I have a feeling though if you press on the "user" name, it will show your weight, or weight loss or gain.  I doubt if they have any kind of code or anything on it, but that would be cool if they did.  I know I don't want people snooping around looking to see how much my weight is.  My recumbent bike does this also.  You put in your weight before what program you want to see how many calories you burned.  Although I love this feature, but I hate the fact that the next person who gets on it sees my amount of weight entered.  Theres no privacy at all, unless you mess it up at the end of your session.......woohoo 120 pounds!hehe  That would fool everyone!ha

120 lbs... LOL that would be FUN :)   I don't even want my dh to know what I weigh... though HE just weighed in front of ME... he was 258 pounds.  It's a real private thing for me... I don't want to share this with anyone IRL. Juneau isn't a bad place to live! It's small (in terms of Anchorage!) They have a brand new Super Walmart as well as a larger Fred Meyer. Kmart was there but pulled out when they closeds all K-marts in Alaska. Walmart actually bought their building :)  Most people stay out in the valley area in Juneau... the stores up town are usually closed when it's not tourist season... same with Sitka. My MIL lives in Sitka as does dh's sister... we had our last two bio kiddo's over there. It's a big tourist place these days. And the ferry system stinks! They have ONE ferry north and ONE south PER WEEK. That's why MIL is here so long! She'll get ready to GO, then changes her mind and has to wait another FULL WEEK :)  (I think she IS leaving next Thur though:)  Flights are bad to :(  Just made the least convenient possible! The nice thing with Juneau is they are a larger International airport (not like Anchorage!) but they have many more straight flights to/from the mainland... more specials etc. Not sure what all airlines go in there cause I fly Alaska airlines if I have to fly.   If your looking for CLOSER to Seattle... Ketchikan is closer- my only thoughts on that... ick :)  But, there IS a Walmart LOL The scale... Thanks for trying to figure it out for me :)  I think I'm going to do some research on them! That's going to be my next purchase :)  I want one that WORKS :)  Like Kris.... I am tired of having to get on it 3-5 times and taking the reading I see most!  :)

The wife and I are headed to Bed, Bath & Beyond tonight to see what selections they have.  My main concern is accurate weight. I want to honestly know what I way and not have to step on and off the scale 5 times and take the average reading.  Something nice and big and sturdy sounds great. I love the idea of being able to see the numbers over my belly. I had no idea that they actually made scales that had the numbers further out.  I'm kinda excited about going scale shopping! lmao!

haha, funny.  have fun!  reminds me of my dad buying one.  he came home with this humongous thing that takes a whole corner of the room.  he thought he did so good, while my mom hated it.  my dad died about a year ago, mom brought that ugly thing with her when she moved here .  she still complains about it, but she'll never get rid of it. :)
