    Pip....fellow Gemini-ian, Tonight I PLANNED some boiled carrots, with some brown sugar, light marg and some walnuts, BUT I fixed husband homemade biscuits and bacon gravy SO I had two biscuits, two spoonfuls of gravy and practically LICKED my plate...well I used me finger!!! No guilt, for this Gemini. We Gemini's are emotional!! When I am happy EVERYONE knows it, but when I am angry.....watch OUT.... My momma used to say a poem...something like "When she is good, she is very, very good, but when she is mad, she is horrid!" Or something like that....

    Being headhunted by one of my old companies... interview Monday. Would require relocation to Raleigh, NC, for 18-month contract. Thinking hard. It's stupid-high money, but high stress, or at least it was. Lots to think about. Been in talks all week, and discussing with my amazing husband.

    Weighed one pound less at the end of Feb than at the beginning. Goal is the same for March.

    Lisa in West Texas (for now)

    Been wondering how things were going for you. That's quite a decision to make. Let us know what happens. We know they would be lucky to get you.

    Why didn't you stay? We could have been neighbors!

    My husband's job moved us. We have lived many many places so I shouldn't have been surprised but usually we get at least three years in a location. We are done moving now. Been in Houston for 15 years and I'm not moving away from grand babies! My husband is close to retirement now so we are settled.

    Marcelyn. Stuffing herself in New Mexico with enchiladas this weekend.

    Lisa – Wow Raleigh,NC !! would you leave DH behind and commute? ....Kim from N. California

    Kim, yes, that's why we're having serious discussions. I can clear as much in 18 months as he can in 4 YEARS. It's a big decision. Which we can't make until an offer comes through... but I don't want to even interview unless we're willing to consider it. Which means we are, I guess.

    Marcelyn: Green or red sauce? I love New Mexico cuisine.

    Heather: A bit late, but kudos on the lovely blue dress and those cute boots, too.

    Katla: Knowing how much you love to sail, I'm glad you have a date on the water with DS and DDIL.

    Lisa: Oh wow. What a tough decision. Eighteen months. What kind of work? Seems like you just finished a pretty stressful stint at the restaurant...hope you see a clear path to the right decision.

    Grandmallie: Proud of you getting back on the exercise wagon.

    Counting down the days till I leave for Newport Beach, California on Tuesday. Hoping that all the planning and details are done by Tuesday, and this conference goes off without a hitch. And nice sunny weather wouldn't hurt, either.

    Stay well, friends. We can do this.

    Lisa, what a huge decision, knowing what I do about you, you'll figure out a way to make it work, or pass - you seem to have a good handle on what is important.

    Rori, it's Chief of Staff for a Director at a massive high tech company. Basically operations manager on steroids. Thanks for the vote of confidence, Kim! Lots of considerations at hand...

    Just a pop in to say
    HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOYCE!
    and
    NICE FENCE PIP!
    and
    WAY TO GO GAYLE!

    and because I can't figure out how to put pictures in a message reply on my phone I am posting some pics of my mother's China. It caused me great anxiety to take it out. I can't imagine using it and am in financial trouble so...

    Hi, everyone, my name is Char from Sthe Louis MO. I'm so happy to have found this friendly group. I am 69 years old and will turn 70 next month. It is late in my life but this is a battle I have fought all my life. Here's hoping I can get it right this time.
    I'm getting ready to have bariatric surgery some time in July.
    My main exercise is walking which I do in my house 5 days a week. My goal is to walk 30 minutes 2 times a day. I do make it most of the time.
    I am here to both get and give support and encouragement .

    I lick my plate, too, and I'm not a Gemini-an. :devil:

    Lisa: Good luck with a decision that will affect both of your lives. I hope there is a win-win possibility here. :heart:
