What's New Wednesday!!
Thanks Pat, you are such a dear person and it is soooo nice to have you here. Love, Marti 
Good Morning Everyone..
Marti...you are under alot of stress and with your strength and will power you will lose those 10#...I hear alot..basics, basics, basics.
Annette...you have done fantastic on you wl and if you stick to your plan you probably won't be facing that gain that your surgeon mentioned. You've come so far to change things now.
Margo...once this reunion is over you'll feel great that you did this. It's alot of work to make everything "just so" but you'll reap the rewards too.
Jan...you are my idol with walking. I'm still working on getting started.
I live in the city and I wouldn't enjoy walking on some of these streets but I have to get going on this.
Kathi...you'll have to let us all know all about "Ahhhnold", the Terminator. You seem to have the right determination to be successful in this wl journey cuz you won't let a slight shift in the scale to fluster you.
Carla..I'm so glad Ike didn't wipe out Fla. I really feel for the Cubans tho.
Hopefully Ike will not crunch Texas.
Judy...haven't seen Y&R since last Fri..working long hours last 2 days but will PM you after today's episode. I'm still praying that you get that apartment or equivilant..you definitely need to "get away" from the current situation.
Pat..good morning and have a great day!
I had my last nut appt yesterday...I was shocked I lost 5 more pounds!
I was at a stall and just kept doing the basics and it worked. Total 30# now since April. My nut was 20min late for my appt yesterday and I had to leave 5min early to get to work so I had a total of 5min with her. We talked fast. She said it'll take about a week to gather all my info then off to my insurance for approval which she said may take about 3wks. She said the insurance will contact me directly or I'll have to call them. I tried on some clothes that I had pushed back in my closet (didn't fit) and tried them on this AM...fit and some loose! This is amazing. Now all I need is a pouch to curb my hunger to really zoom to a healthy lifestyle.
Have a great day Everyone!

I love Spring!!!!!!
I love Spring!!!!!!
Good morning, Marti, we have missed your bright shiny face on here. Our family is not complete when one of us is missing. We are glad that you are back in the fold of our family.
It is chilly here this morning. It is only 57 and here it is going on 10 already. I know that fall is definitely in the air and not to far around the corner. Misty is wondering why the sliding door isn't open this morning. Maybe because we would both freeze our fanny's off if it was. lol
I am planning on staying home today. Nothing is planned and that is going to be nice. I am going to work around here and find new homes for the stuff that needs to be outta here. The other stuff is finding a home in the dumpster. That sounds like a good home for it. I wish that all of it could go there but sorry that it can't. I have to find the home for most of the stuff in the filing cabinet. Oh do I dread doing that. I am not sure why but I hate putting the stuff in the filing cabinet. I know~it doesn't make much sense does it?
The meeting at church went for what seems like forever. I thought that it would never end. I am not really happy with the way it went but who am I? I have another meeting next Tuesday for the "Church Goals" and what was suppose to be done on the evaluation sheet. Most of them didn't do the the evaluation so why are they going to come to the meeting? I sound like a pessimistic Peggy but after dealing with some of the people that I do I have earned that name, let me tell you. We have the Charge Conference on the 2nd of November and that is something that I have to be at. I have nominations that is meeting before Charge Conference and I am happy to report that this is my last year on it. Maybe they will begin to leave me alone when I am off nominations. Yeah right. I have to remember that no one can take advantage of me unless I allow them to.
I better get going. I am sending love and hugs to all of my OFF family. Know that my prayers go up for you many times during the day, with special ones for those in need of them. Have a wonderful day and remember that you are loved.

It's not what you gather, but what you scatter
that tells what kind of life you have lived.

I am a big helper out on committees, but try very very hard, to not be in charge.....Good Luck, Love, Marti |

Hi Marti and everyone:
Gee, it's afternoon already. I slept really late today. I got up at 8 when I heard the lawnmowers go by, and I closed the window (just had it opened slightly because it was a little stuffy in the house). The next thing I knew, the phone was ringing and it was 11:20 a.m. Wow, I was going to do so much this morning ... all gone by the wayside. Oh, well, there's always tomorrow.
The phone call was from the pain clinic, setting me up with the rehab doc to talk about my knee. I hope he can help. Nobody else seems to help me. I have an appointment on Sept. 26. I wi**** were sooner but I guess it takes time to get all these appointments.
Work wasn't too busy last night, just pretty normal. There's supposed to be a big article today about the movie being filmed in the newsroom Sunday ... and using the five of us as extras, with quotes from us. I didn't have as many good quotes as some of the others ... I guess I was just too tired Monday to think of some good zingers. Although I did come up with a good one, whether they use it or not is another matter ... I said they had us walking around the newsroom and with me that's dangerous. "I'm such a klutz that I'd probably trip, and my big break would really be a big break." One of my fellow copy editors said the newsroom never saw so much walking ... I thought that was pretty funny and wish I had said that. When I see the link, I'll post it. I didn't see any photos taken of me ... saw one of Mike, the other copy editor, and T.J., the photographer. If they're going to use photos of us, I hope they don't use the one of me taken three years ago. That wouldn't be fair!
Margo, I love your genealogy find! Yes, I know who Elizabeth Cady Stanton is.
Marti, hang in there. I can't say I have been a faithful exerciser, but I have tried to get on my little exercycle a few times a week. My problem was snacking on peanuts ... I had to put them away from sight. When I did that, the pounds started coming off ... also, I cut back on the dark chocolate.
Judy, I wanted to watch Fringe, but I could only DVR two shows, and I was trying to record two ballgames at the same time. Ballgames take precedence ... unfortunately, the Sox lost both games ... so I didn't even watch them. I'll have to catch Fringe on Sunday.
Well, I guess that's all ... don't remember everyone else. I'm half awake. I didn't even bother with breakfast because I'll eat lunch in an hour or so. I just made coffee. My AchievOnes finally came in! So I'll pick them up today.
Have a good day!

It's almost not morning here anymore. Cloudy cool day. Marti, Boy do I know where you are. I finally made myself get weighted on Sunday and I have gained 29.5 pounds. I am sad but more mad at myself. I was always told if you do something for 3 weeks it becomes a habit, Bunk, I ate perfectly on the straight and narrow for 2 years had a steady year and this last year I find myself eatting at times like the "old" me. I started South Beach on Monday and already I feel 100% better and not having cravings. I am apprehensive as I always failed "diets" in the past. I am honestly not going to look at this as a diet, but as a life style..again the words I always said in the past. It's do or die time for me. Oh your house sounds so nice and clean, I have been working on getting thigs back to "Pre Chuck " shape, oh my I move something and find another pile, and dirt dirt dirt, this is going to take me weeks!!
Margo, your research is awesome, If I was a relative coming to the reunion, I would be so excited to see what you have done..Just last night I found the sign in book to my great-grandmothers funeral and on the back page they had a family tree form, my grandmother filled it out !! I was so excited, not sure there is anything new but I have so much trouble keeping everyone straight when we start going back.I have never found anyone famous or well known justhard working people who must have spent all their free time making babies, big big families.. Blessings
