Good Morning California, From London!

This is one of those very rare occasions that I'm awake early enough to do the Good Morning post...too bad I have to be 8 time zones away to do it though.

I'm coming home!! The weather here is a mess, there's a record snowfall across the UK and it's screwing up the airports, roads and trains. I'm chilling out at Heathrow a few hours early and when my internet time is up I'll go hang out in the airport lounge. :)

So how is everyone?!? What's the lastest news? Is everyone still moving to lose? Any cheaters, fakers, or drama queens want to be heard this morning? STEP UP!

I believe the Huntington Beach Surf City race is coming up. I won't be ready to do a half marathon, but I can do a 5k for sure....has anyone entered?

When I get home I need to detox after all the bad stuff I ate, and yes....I will face the ugly truth and hop on my scale. I dont know if all the running with luggage and walking will be enough to balance out the yummy treats I've eaten.

Cheers Mate! Save some California sunshine for me! 

 

 

Good Morning Monica and Cali Friends,

Almost welcome home Monica, but it's not sunny California in the northern part of the state, it's mostly rainy and foggy and COLD. 

Not much new in my neck of the woods.  We do have lots of newbies on the Cali forum which I'd like to formally welcome and let you know we're so glad you've come to this forum for support.  Please feel free to ask questions of us "experienced" folks who've been there done that and are continuing on our journies together. I urge you to join in both on line and at your local coffee and lunches, you'll meet some fantastic folks.  Like any type of community, we have sub-divisions but I think by-in-large we are all here for the same reason, to support each other on our way to a healthier lifestyle and to make friends.  Speaking of friends, there are some "experienced" folks who haven't been posting that I miss A LOT and hope that they will start posting again soon.  Now that the holidays are behind us, I am longing for familiar!!!

Well I need to get scooting to the shower and off to work.  I will be hosting an Employee Benefits Fair today.  So much work done pre-event, I'm not sure if the employees will even know but geez I'm pooped!  LOL

Hope everyone has a great day, If you live where it's raining, be safe, stay warm and dry!

Hugs,
Barb

Good Morning Calif...

Well yesterday was my frist day back to work. Not to bad really, my ankle was proped up and I sat 99% of the day and DID NOT walk around much on my foot. So I hope Stephie is proud of me. LOL Of course by the time my 12 hours was up, I was ready to die, so I took 2 pain pills and was out for the night. Funny how something so small (in my book) can just wipe you out. Of course them 4 hours naps where removed so that might have something to do with it. LOL

OK I need to get in to the shower and start my day. I wish you all a great day. Be kind and remember some day you will sit in judgement..By SOMEONE!

Love to all

Lusty Lu 

Good morning everyone.  I am so glad that you have had a great trip Monica.  I would love to do that sometime in the future. 

Barb, I hope your Benefits Fair is a big success.

Lu, have a good day and keep that foot up. I also agree with you I miss our regular experienced poster that have been missing.  I hope they realize how much we miss them and their input. Please come back!   

Today is a "Pamper Elizabeth" Day.  I am going to have a mani/pedi and a facial this morning.  I think I will take it easy this afternoon too.  

Well I hope every one has a great day even if it is raining out there.  Just remember how much we need it.

Have a safe trip back!!!!!  Hopefully this rain will go away before you get here.

Morning Monica or is it afternoon over there now? lol....

Sounds like you are having the trip of a lifetime. I hope your journey home is safe and without delays. I can't wait to see some of your pictures and hear all about your trip.

There wasn't any Cali sunshine this morning but, it may pop out for a visit for a couple of days. Then supposedly there will be more rain on Sun, Mon, & Tues. I love the sun, but I love the rain too!

I am looking forward to seeing you again on Saturday.

They say NO rain Saturday!  Yippppeeee!

What a trip you have had!  I know we all missed seeing your posts.  It is cold and rainy here too!  You know what they say "it doesn't rain in California but man it pours."  Welcome home

Hi Monica,

We cannot wait to hear about your trip.  I hope you have an uneventful yet safe flight home.
