No wonder why you're doing so well living in Alaska!!!   LOL   You were born for the cold too....hehehehe.    I'll have to look now and see where Warren is...I'm in Northern Mn but not sure where it is.  I'm Northeastern right on Lake Superior I'm guessing it's on the other side of the state.

Did i ever tell you that i was born in Minnesota??  Northern part.  Warren.
My sis was born 14 months before me & she was born in Grand Forks.  The OB department in the hospital was not ready yet when she was born.
My mom said she walked over to my grandma's and dropped off my sister and then went & had me.  Somehow, since my b-day is in Janurary, I think she may have been driven from gramma's hose, though!!

Just had to share.

I was on the phentermine when the Phen-Phen diet came out, and I did good with it.  And I took it for like 2 months in early 2003 to get that last little bit of weight off before my TT.

Keep up on your struggle with those vitamins, IT PAYS OFF!!!!!!  Trust me, I WAS FLOORED when the doc said I was "normal"!!!!  hee hee hee hee  (what, me normal??)  Now, I just need to keep on my vitamins for another year, and see how my labs are next time around!!!

Court, Good Luck on your offer!!  Sounds like you have a busy day & evening planned for you.  I have been thinking of you, and hoping that you get a renter SOON!!!! 
1999, I had bought my first home, and then, when I moved in with Mark in '03 , I rented out my house, and it sure helped with the mortgage payments!!!  Then it sat empty for like 4-5 months while I had it up for sale, and it was a 45 minute drive from where I was living, and it snowed every week, so I had to leave the baby (he was 5 months) with Mark when he got home from work, and go & shovel off the shed roof, check on the house, and find someone to plow up the snow, so that the house at least looked like someone was taking care of it, and did not get vandalized, broke into.  So, really, I understand the stress, finances, worry.....  I TRUELY DO!!!!

No plans tonight, but maybe....... take Hunter bowling for the first time.  We went last week & had a blast, and we truely think that he is old enough to take and start to bowl.  It is going to be cold & dark up here in Alaska for months, so we may as well start doing a family night out of the house every other week or so.  It will be good for all of us!!

Michelle, have a good time with your chruch group & walk this evening!!
Now that this is a book, I will end it!!!!!

Didn't make it to the gym last night but had a good time socializing at church.   Today is work then my walking group.   I love Thursdays!!   It's so nice to exercise and have good company along the way.   We have moved inside to walk now though since the weather has turned mighty cold here these days.   We usually walk for at least an hour.  Sometimes we stop for dinner or coffee afterwards but most of the time not.   I will stop in the gym to get my weekly weight as I need to weigh in for the Thanksgiving challenge on the pregnancy board.   Otherwise I need to get my list going for grocery shopping this weekend.   HOpe everyone has a great day!

Glad to hear it turned out good Jaime.  Research the phentermine.  I was on it years ago and had some issues.  Passed out & got really sick.  On the other hand my sister took and it had no issues at all.

I have to get my blood work done and I am not looking forward too it.  I am worried about it as I have been struggling with taking my vitamins.  I guess we shall see.

So I still didn't make it to the gym yet.  I am really going to have to push myself to get back into the habit.  I am quite frustrated with myself but will work on it.  Been doing a lot better with my eating choices though.  Yesterday was pretty good for me.  We decided to put an offer on one of the houses we looked at.  It is a short sale and we are offering a bit less than they are asking so it is a long shot but worth a try.  It could be awhile before we hear anything.  Posted ads for the condo to rent it so keep your fingers crossed for a renter.

Not too much on the books for today.  Work of course & I know it will be busy.  We have the girlies tonight so I am sure the evening will be busy too.  What are your plans?  Hope you have a great one!

Topic: Lab test results
I had my bloodwork done on October 11th, yes a whole MONTH ago!!!
I just spoke with the doc this morning!!!  I was wondering if they had received the results (the office is in Washington, and I am in Alaska), so I had them re-fax them, and FINALLY heard back today.

Everything "looks good" and is in the normal ranges!!!!!!!!  YEA!!!!!  The doc tests for so much, vitamins, iron, cholesterol, thyroid.  I am glad he is SO detailed about that.  We also touched base on the weight issue, and discussed diet, exercise.  And he also mentioned that if I could have a doc follow me up here in Alaska, it would be good to get me on phentermine along with diet & exercise, my weight loss would be way more effective.  But he would not write the prescription, because I needed to have my blood pressure checked while on it.

He is sending me a prescription for iron, it is called Niferex.  I am just SO HAPPY that my levels are so good!!!!

Edit: to add I also posted this on the pregnancy board.
