    Nykaren-- You are so brave to have those young people staying with you. I get so stressed out when people come to stay, even family. So afraid of being judged I guess.

    Heather--Sounds like you had a nice phone visit and I pray next week goes as planned.

    Katla--Glad to hear about your 2 zones. Enjoy!

    Allie--Sorry to hear about your DB.

    Tracey--Sending hugs and prayers.

    Michele--Love all the things you have painted for your yard.

    We had one day of 60 degree weather and now today more rain and only 30's. Sounds like later this evening and tomorrow they are talking about 2-4 inches of snow. Just what we need as they are starting to get the water from the flooding cleaned up. We are to go to Broken Bow tomorrow for a state ralley for our motorcycle group. Will be driving the car and depends on the weather is we go. I am so ready for spring.
    Blessings, Vicki GI NE <3

    vickie I feel the same way having people over, (we have very simple, minimalist taste, not fancy at all). But we both agreed, these young people are far from their homes and this is a great opportunity for them to see NYC for the first time in an affordable way. My DD is a great little tour/event planner, and is excited about this chance to share her love of nyc with west coasters! DH and I will just deal with it :# .

    oh boy, my DYS just asked to stay a our place for 2 days while touring area colleges with her kid in April also....wait till I tell DH. When it rains it pours!

    Dana: If the trees are dropping stuff does that mean you have lots of ‘free’ firewood available?

    On company - I love to have company, the more the merrier! When my friends came, they often came in mass and we had 12-14 people staying with us, including kids. Of course, that only happened every few years and now the kids are all grown so it's just the adults now and the numbers are down.

    Just finished watching the final of Masterchef. :D
    The day went really well. We collected Bea from her home and DDIL told us she was going out to meet my son and they would not be coming back before the restaurant meal. OK. :*
    Kids were great coming home, but tea time was a bit of a scramble. Not much of what I had prepared was eaten, but it didn't seem to matter. We finished off with Oreos! :laugh:
    Putting Bea to bed was my job and as soon as that was finished (phew!) I went out for fish and chips with mushy peas. Could not resist buying a bottle of Prosecco to go with it.
    All the kids are asleep. My son rang twice during the evening to check everything was OK. I was in a state because my phone had gone crazy, was hot, and had run down the battery. I assured him that my panic was nothing to do with the kids, just a technology malfunction. I think turning the phone off and on again has cured it.
    Expecting them home soon. It sounded as if the meal, and especially the soda flight was going well.

    Love Heather UK xxxxxxx

    :)Rita, Congratulations on your success. I know how long it has taken you to find a plan that worked for you and that you could live with. You look great.

    Hi all! Beautiful weather here. Daffodils and hyacinth are up and blooming. Barbie, didn't you plant lots of bulbs last fall? How are they doing.

    Rita - Nice pic.

    Everyone take care, Sue in WA

    Quick post, had to reply to Tracy:
    When you have been offered a job, it is very simple to say that you need "x" time off as your daughter is getting married on this date. Most employers will be understanding. If the interview is getting very chatty, especially now that the date is getting closer, the upcoming nuptials could be mentioned than also. Keeping my fingers crossed for you! I know the right job is out there, just waiting for you!

    Happy Friday ladies!

    For some reason with MFP is unstable on my laptop and kicks me out. Still haven't resolved the javascript problem. Just imagine a "like" or "hug" on all of your posts :)

    Janetr[/b] - I like what I'm hearing about your new doctor. Mine dresses like she's going on a hike with cargo pants and knit tops. DH's doc in the same clinic generally wears a nice shirt and pants. I don't think they own white lab coats, lol. The nurses wear cute smocks tho.

    MFP has been unstable like that on my computer at home, my computer at work and my phone. But I just click Log In at the top and it logs me right in without entering name and pw or anything.


    I think white lab coats are a thing of the past. :)

    Barbara - although I agree the email was cold, I was always taught to make a phone call. It seems that the norm now is to not call or email at all. I understand it from being on that side of the desk, but it doesn’t make it any less frustrating.
    Glad you found out about Scooter early enough to do something.

    Janet - I think that is an awesome NSV, I have a few friends that had surgery and have gained it and more back. You are doing well.

    Machka - hope you get some rest this weekend. Wouldn’t that be a lovely place to do it in!

    The "form email" is how I've been notified I haven't got the job for the last decade at least ... since I've been in Australia. It's not even a personal email. But before that it was the form letter.

    And yes, I am taking a rest weekend! :)

    Luana and Nancy, you've both come to the right place! This is a thread with no judgement, some ladies are already at goal and just trying to maintain, some are wanting to lose lots, some not quite so much, very diverse group, but very chatty and supportive! If you need to rant, instead of stress eating, rant away! You can put it in the form of a spoiler, hopefully I will tell you the right way to do it, click on the paragraph at the top and a spoiler choice will drop down. Then we can read it or not, and you've got it off your chest!
    Hope everyone else is having/has had a great day! Weather here is warming up again, I do kind of wish we would get some rain, tho, the forests are VERY dry, does not bode well for the summer, again....
    Anyway, time for bed for me. Hugs to those needing them, congrats to those celebrating (Rita, you look great!) and welcome to the newbies!
