My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen

Thanks for such a warm welcome.

Welcome Cathy,
I haven't been on the board as much as I'd like since life keeps getting in the way. But this is a fabulous group and so supportive. I miss them all very much when I am away.

Anyways.....welcome to the loser's bench Cathy, keep posting so we get to know each other. Glad you found us and we are dusting off a spot for you......

I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.
