Hello Judy....I have had a hard time getting to be able to reply to your post. I hope I don't lose it!!!!
YAY YAY YAY!!!!!!! I am soooooo HAPPY...the the little WORM is gone!!! I am sure your BOSS wasn't happy about his hours!!!! It is wonderful that you already have a new guy lined up to step in and take over!!! I pray this guy isn't just all talk! You really need someone with some hustle!!!
Have a good night...I am exhausted and have a headache time to go!!
Love you....HUGS.....connie d
Hi Ladies,
I was over the moon this morning. I lost almost 6 pounds this week. I'm at my lowest weight 170.4.
Nothing much going on today. I did my exercise this afternoon. Tonight for supper I'm making a new dish called hamburger pie. Hope it is good.
It's cold here today and suppose to get snow storms Wednesday and Thursday. As far as I'm concerned the snow can stay away. At least spring is a month away.
Everyone have a good day. Thoughts and prayers for everyone.
Love and hugs,
Yvonne
Hello Yvonne.....CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! 
That is wonderful news!!! I remember when I hit my lowest weight loss number. Enjoy this crazy ride!!!! 
Did you get that Hamburger Pie on Facebook? I saw one on there and saved it to my Pinterist account. Let me know how it turns out!!
Love to you and hugs too....connie d
Good afternoon Julia and everyone......
Julia...I want to see "The Witch" as well. Did you like it...you just said, you thought it was eerie and you weren't bored. Is it worth going to or should I wait for Netflix???
That is probably a great idea to check into the solar energy to your homes. Some people really do benefit quite a lot. Good luck...keep us updated.
As for me.... I agree...I wish some of the former group would come back too. We have wonderful people here but we could still use a few more!! I have quite a few on my Facebook friends list. I would still like them here as well.
I had an appointment with my psychiatrist today. He was absolutely amazed at the change in me. He said, WELCOME BACK CONNIE!!! We are back to our old appointments every 3 months instead of 3 weeks again.....YAY!!!
I love the recipes that Vickie has been leaving for us. They all sound so good. I am going to make the Shrimp Roni on Thursday!!
I do have a headache so I am getting off this computer.
Prayers for our amazing OFF Family and their families.
Much love and oodles of hugs to all.....connie d
Hello sistas!
Today is my surgiversary. I didn't even think about it until I saw the date today. Six years out and I'm so pleased with myself--even with the regain I had this year. I will get this extra weight off soon. Carrie and I are already planning our exercise regime for when we get to my house next week. I know what I need to do; I just need to do it.
Well, today we had Caralee's newborn photo shoot. That went well--NOT! OMGee. Poor baby pooped FOUR times and just never could settle down. Don't know if her tummy was hurting her or if she just didn't like being nekkid, but she never did relax. So we gave it up for today and rescheduled for Friday evening. We'll see how it goes four days from now.
Anyway, Carrie and I are both exhausted. I've been peed on and pooped on and I really, really miss my bubble tub! I would love to take an hour long bubble bath right now. Carrie is hurting and sore. She just took a pain pill and I sent her to lie down. C-sections are not easy to recover from.
So I think we're about DONE for tonight. I plan to shower, change into jammies, and settle down to crochet for the rest of the evening. Oh, and Julia, I tried rolling a ball of yarn from another one of those "hanks" and I did get it done, but wow! That yarn tangled up so fast! One minute it was feeding off into a ball and the next minute, BAM! BIG KNOT! So far I've spend way more time untangling yarn than I have spent crocheting.
We were watching Beach House Hunters (or whatever it's called) last night and two of them were for couples who wanted to move to Belize. Made me cry a little bit because, of course, that's what Butch and I had more or less planned to do. Life sure does take some awful unexpected twists and turns, doesn't it?
However, on a more positive note, they're showing my lakehouse again today. C'mon, people! Make me an offer!!!
Well, like I said, I'm about done in. We stopped and bought Schlotzsky's sandwiches on the way home, so I don't have to cook tonight. (And yes, I ate one, meat and all. I don't care tonight.)
So, I'll close for now. Prayers for Arlene's SIL tonight. Love you all!
Vickie
Hello Vickie....sounds like you and Carrie will be exercising together and have good plans to lose weight together. Good for you!!
HAPPY SURGIVERSAY!!!! You have done great with your weight loss!! You will lose that regain...you have the drive and desire to get it done.
So sorry about the photo shoot. Poor little Caralee was having a bad day. If she went potty that many times she probably was having a lot of tummy pains. I hope Friday works out better.
Sorry about the yarn issues!! That would not make me very happy!
I am glad they are showing the bakehouse again. If just has to sell soon. If I had the money I would live there!!
Have a good evening....rest and relax....enjoy the down time.
Did you ever send that CHAI Tea or did you decide to pass it on to someone else. No big deal if you did. I am just wondering.
Love you....HUGS....connie d
Hi everyone,
Sending loving vibes to everyone.
Patricia, you have been through so much. Sounds like your daughter takes the weight of the world on her shoulders, everything is her fault, she thinks. It isn't. I used to borrow other people's issues and it nearly drove me insane. She could use therapy as many have suggested. Your pain is your pain and is not her fault. I do hope she talks to some one. I did not know you are bipolar. Here I whine about my anxiety disorder and you are bipolar.
Judy, it is about time you fired the handyman. I would love to have a job where I could paid for doing not much except waste time. You DO have to write a book about your apartment complex. With your sense of humor, it would be a best seller.
Beautiful Connie, hope with the new pain meds, you are feeling better. Living in such cold weather doesn't help pain either. I think of you and your very strong will and strength often. Much love.
To all those I have missed, I have yet another case of CRS. Sorry.
But I send all my love to you girls.
Arlene.
Julia and Ladies,
I am dragging up the caboose again. I am exhausted. DH told me today that he is having trouble seeing out of his surgical eye and I said, did you call the surgeon and he said, no and I asked him how long and he said well it sort of started Friday....so, here it is Monday and he is still having trouble seeing and he has not called his doctor. I am so mad and I have to say that I totally lost it. I told him that he cannot let these kinds of things go and you know fussed at him and felt really badly about it but dammit, he has no idea what kind of damage he may have done letting it go this long.
Okay on a brighter note, today, my pants were so loose that they slid right off my hips. My tutors are starting to notice my weight loss and I am so glad that finally I can tell and so can others.
We have an appointment next Monday to take our cat in for her last car ride. I am so upset but she has gotten so bad she isn't eating at all...she is still drinking water but no food. The earliest we can get it is Monday but if they can get her in earlier, they will call us. I have her separated from the other cats in the big cage. We have her bed in there and a few of those pee pads and food that she won't eat. One of my friends came over tonight and tried to feed her with a syringe but Ginger just wouldn't swallow the food...I should not have let her get this bad and I feel so bad but she isn't meowing and she seems to rest. DH keeps getting her out of the cage and holding her but she seems just as content in the cage.
Well, I better get off here and iron my shirt for tomorrow. Ladies have a good night.
