@AlexandraFindsHerself1971 It absolutely matters! And my problem is I've got the Fay and then I have mortal races, but my Fay have been completely monopolizing the conversation with their history (especially my Unseely King who turns out not to be so Unseely (well, depending on whether you consider Unseely to be evil or…

now see? Now I'm thinking there's gotta be a catch - you're sounding too good to be true lol :tongue:

Definitely! I had an opportunity to go to Yellowstone back in 2007, but I was by myself and wasn't in the shape I'm in now, so I stuck to the main areas, but that touristy feel kind of put a damper on the enjoyment of the park. Like you said, @NovusDies , I don't mind passing someone once in a while - especially when…

*shrugs* well, you asked, and all I have to offer is my one second hand version. Besides, in my family, its not the cats you have to worry about - its my dad and sister lol

@paperpudding I would think that truly, especially since they had 2 kids within 14 months not to mention the crazy family she comes from, but this was also going on long before she ever got pregnant. They were married for 6 years before their daughter was born, and she was like that the whole time. And even if she's…

Water weight is back to killing me again this week; its got my trend screwed up and back up to 221 on happyscale *sigh* Meanwhile, I'm trying a page out of @NovusDies book: I plan to spent tomorrow winterizing my yard, putting in flower bulbs, and whatever else I can find to do outside. So I'm trying to eat at or maybe a…

@psychod787 Well, they stay off the counters, but I do have to keep a table cloth on the dining room table, and make sure to sanitize it every time I use it - will that be adequate?

On a serious note, I do find it interesting what we as individuals will find attractive. I have given online dating a try just so I could tell the people who kept suggesting it that I had given it a serious shot, and one thing I noticed about myself was that apparently, while I might find the Adam Cartwrights of this world…

@psychod787 nope, my upper body strength is nothing spectacular; I only swing that maul during the fall when the parents are getting their winter wood in. *sigh* you could be the man of my dreams. Tell me you'll tolerate my 5 cats and I'm yours :tongue: And for the record, I am neither a pillbilly nor a Pentacostal though…

@psychod787 now that's sounding like Prince Charming to me. Tell me you clean up after yourself and aren't intimated by a woman using a drill and a reciprocating saw or swinging a splitting mall and running a chainsaw and you might just be deemed the man of my dreams lol

@futurefit2020 Well, in my brother's case, he's not a controlling creep but i do think he's rather an idiot. He went and found him a wife that "needs" him alright; she sits on the couch and has emotional breakdowns while he works 10 hours a day and then does all the housework, cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the 3…

I'm a single woman in rural Appalachia and while I love my home and live here because its where I want to be, the sad truth is that with as poor as the region is and as bad a shape as the economy is, a huge subset of the population are drug addicts/alcoholics, etc. Often the good ones have to leave the area to find decent…

@conniewilkins56 See? this is why I wish you were closer - I have only rudimentary makeup skills and have no idea what you're talking about lol And none of the makeup advisors are operating right now :frowning:

@conniewilkins56 & @speyerj *laughs* I don't think I qualify as "hot" or "beautiful" but I like to think I at least clean up well these days! I can't help but see the stupid saggy skin under my chin. But at least I don't have grays in my hair anymore - and I do agree with the beautician that the hair color suits my eye…

Hi, Jackie! It's great to see you back and I'm glad things are turning around for you! Conversation has gone a little quieter than normal here abouts, but we're all still here,plugging away :grin:

AND today, I went and got my hair cut and colored, so here's the new me!

I thought I'd be daring on Sunday and tried a sheath style dress to wear to church. I think I pulled it off, considering the compliments I got lol

@conniewilkins56 That's fantastic news! And keep at it, and you'll be surprised at what you'll be able to do with those dance moves - you'll be cutting a rug in no time :) Teach your grandsons to try to keep up with you!

@amart4224 You're right - there is a visible change! Congratulations - you look great! :smiley:

I was able to get a 6 1/2 mile walk in this afternoon, the first time in over a week. And boy, do I love having those extra calories back! lol Water weight from last week has my scale screwed up this week; because I gained 4 lbs water weight, my happy scale trend weight popped back up above 220 lbs, but I'm refusing to let…

Water weight blues strike again. Earlier in the week, I was consistently under 220 lbs and enough that I was able to record my weight as being under 220 lbs on Thursday. But Thursday afternoon, I went shopping with my sister and we ate at Olive Garden, and the water weight has my weight popped back up to 223 and it won't…

Good lands! I am NOT eating at Olive Garden again! My sister wanted to go to Beckley yesterday and I hadn't spent time with her in a while, so I agreed to go with her. Found the blue jean skirt I needed and I spent too much money in JoAnn Fabric but hey, I found the material I needed to make the stuff animals I plan to…

or I've been in that toilet bowl for so long I have no idea how to get out of it lol You might be interested to know I did actually send in a contact request form to the company's life resources program. Now I just have to dig up the courage to actually discuss the whole career issue/depression problems with them......

Now to try to mentally change gears and get myself to slow down to maintenance. THAT'S going to be fun to try to get my brain to agree to..... I want to hopefully by the end of October be sitting around 215 to give me that 5 lb buffer for water weight fluctuations during November and December, but honestly, I'm not going…

I’m not keen on resurrecting a really old thread but I didn’t really want to start a new one on the same topic and thought that you know, this thread had some good info sow maybe it SHOULD get bumped. Deep breath: I HIT MY GOAL WEIGHT THIS MORNING TO RECORD IN MFP!!!!! And since I‘be been there for the last 3 days, the…

That's great news!

I wish I had that problem! lol

I had noticed all my rings are loose - I mean really lose as in don't flick a hand or your fling the ring off kind of lose. The sad part is all my rings but one are the costume variety and can't be resized, and the one that CAN be resided I'm waiting to see where I stabilize out at before paying to have it resized. On my…

@bobsburgersfan congratulations! Boy do I know how much relief there is when you finally hit a number you've been wanting to see forever! This morning I couldn't believe the scale and still don't and still keep thinking there must be something wrong with my scale. I tested it a good 12 times and 9 of the 12 came up the…

@conniewilkins56 That’s wonderful news for you! We all desperately need a break once in a while! I’ve spent my day on the road. I left home at 8 this morning heading to my Doctors appointment in the northern part of the state (I live in the south). The state park system has this VIPP program where if you visit 15 specified…
