    I went to see my sister at nursing home, she looked good and seemed in good spirits. I also went to my other sisters house and ate butter beans and cornbread. I am glad to spend time with them. Janice

    Steph..good to see you.
    Janice..glad your sis is doing better..love corn bread..actually any kind of bread. ;)

    On my way to the gym. Leaving extra early because traffic will be heavy and I don't want to miss my session again. Down .04 and will take it! It's a new number bringing my loss to 18.4 so may I'll make the 20 by December.

    Good Friday Morning to everyone,
    -Connie, Congrats on your loss. Great work!!!
    -Janice, It's great that you enjoy your sisters. Wish mine were close enough to
    drop in often.
    Nice weather other than so dry. We are an extreme drought area and need
    significant rain. Our lake is down 20 inches!!!
    Have a great day and weekend.

    Connie-So glad to hear that you lost more weight, heres hoping you lose over 20 by December. I like it alittle cooler, my electric bill went down $43, since I haven't been using the air conditioner and pool filter. But we're suppose to get below freezing this weekend mornings and I dont like that. It suppose to get warmer later next week, again after the freeze. One thing maybe it will kill out some of the bugs.Janice

    Nancy-That is amazing your lake is down almost 2 feet, its been dry here lately, but nothing like that. We had a really wet spring this year, thats when we got the most rain. I moved 20years ago to another city than my family, but its really not very far from them. I am the one that mainly goes in to see them. I am the youngest of the 4 of us, they are stair stepped in age, then I came along 5 years later. I feel I have alittle of all of them in me and then my own personality combined. I grew up in a household of nothing but women, my mom and dad got divorced not long after I was born. I have a half sister that is a year and a half you ger than me, that lives in another state. She always did so we're not very close to her. But yes, it is great to be able to hang out with them. The one I had beans with just retired in July, so now I can see her more, mostly we have been busy trying to keep up with my sister in the nursing home and visiting her. My oldest sister is having a birthday soon, we will all go out to eat soon to celebrate it. How many sisters do you have, Nancy? I wish you could see them more, too. Janice

    Hi everybody. As I am laying in bed reading posts I just realized I hadn't had a chance in two days to read these. I have been so busy that I had forgotten to read posts. I logged food and exercise but that is all I did. Shaundra had a show tonight for tap and jazz. The kids did a very nice job. I forgot my camera like a dingy blonde but if you had seen all the sticky notes I had on my car steering wheel you would understand. I even managed to get two pans of my brownies made cut and delivered. I went to a friends memorial service for 20 minutes before we had to run to the dance. And we got a frantic call that the director needed another roll of ballet flooring. The stage was in a school out the road at 15 mile. What stinks is it takes almost a half hour to drive out to it. So my hubby and I drove to the high school where the flooring was grabbed it delivered it out to the other school and drive back in just to drive back out two hours later. I what a crazy day. But it is done and on to the next show. Mary Poppins in the next item on the agenda. It will be the first weekend of November. I am already working on costumes for that. They are even going to have a harness for Mary so she can fly. I'm drained tonight. I will post more tomorrow during nutcracker rehearsal.

    Good morning, misfit losers! Happy Saturday!

    Nancy..you have a large family! It's a blessing to still be able to enjoy them. Since you are the baby, did you get away with a lot growing up?

    Really loving this cool weather and so does my fur baby! He's loving a longer walk now and so do I.

    Have a wonderful weekend, losers! Stay strong!

    hi all,

    trying to get through the weekend! had a party last night and another tonight. didn't eat a ton last night but salty!! more drama with the 7th grade kids but trying to not let it get to me and EAT!! it is just a bad grade of kids. my daughter's grade is so much better. hope you are all doing well.

    connie and marie, I agree the same is a bummer but it is so much better then a gain!! and it is not really the same as we have all lost some weight so overall it is a loss from where we have started. when I look back at my progress, it looks like a drop, a plateau, a drop, a plateau.....slow and steady!! hang in there ladies!!

    Barbie, glad you are having a good trip!!

    Hello Losers,

    Last night was our last sailing club dinner for the season. It is called Tom Turkey and the food is catered and fabulous.
    We had a live band and I did do some dancing. ;)

    Instead of staying on the boat, which would have been freezing, we stayed at a Guest suite in our friend's condo and
    it was so nice and comfortable. We didn't know they had to pay for it, so we took them out for breakfast in return.

    I just made some homemade soup for tomorrow's lunch. We are babysitting Isaac tomorrow and staying overnight.

    Have a good evening everyone.

    Shirley

    :) I had just gotten rid of the water weight after eating Chinese food last weekend and now after a weekend with restaurant meals, it will be back again. I ate some things I don't normally eat (bread, cheese, tortillas) but all in all, my eating was pretty smart and portions were OK. I didn't walk as much as I wanted but got over 10,000 steps Friday and Saturday. We can't pick up Brandy, Sasha, and Bernie until tomorrow so there will be no dog walking until tomorrow afternoon. :'(
