Good morning Missouri....

Sitting here drinking my protein coffee and trying to decide how to start the day.  Need to run a bunch of errands then work on Christmas.  I was too down to start yesterday.  I did a little but not enough to qualify as decorating.  But my attitude seems a little better today so we'll see.  Does anybody else feel like they run & run and never get anything accomplished?  Sheesh

Jan...you are so funny!  You keep bringing up things I haven't heard in years.  Castor oil....blech.  And the breakfast in bed snippet....priceless.  I have magazines in a file cabinet that I haven't read in years....not sure why I hang onto them, either.  But I do, thinking that one day i will need them.  Nope, probably just one more thing for my kids to throw away when I'm dead.  Not that I'll care.

Collette....you have such a beautiful heart.  Thank you for that and the reminders to pray constantly.  And I was so sorry to hear your friend died.  Seemed so sudden...and death is so hard on those of us left behind.

Tammy V....I am soooo sorry to hear about your husband's brother.  Believe me, when this board says they are praying, they are!  Hang in there, I know this is hard on you and your family.  Keep us posted.

Sugar....try to not kill yourself today, ok?  I know you are so busy and I don't want you to get run down.  You are such a blessing to me and all of us here.  I don't know about the Christmas party.  I want to come but the kids are coming home from Washington and I don't know what their plans are, yet.  If I can get down there, I will let you know...k?

Vesta....the idea of you running thru the house nekkid to get to the hot tub just cracks me up!  I know we are going to need one soon....my poor hubby has worked so hard all of his life and his body just aches.  Me...I'm just cold and want the heat.  snicker.  I will surely try to meet up with you next time you head this way.  I spent 3 years in Bethel, KS (KCK)  when I was growing up.  Somewhere near N 77th.  I've wanted to go look for it but I'm pretty sure it's gone. 

Sheila....you sure are having a time of it, aren't you?  Have you been able to find anyway to eat healthy and not lose?  And your collar bone...doggone it.  I hate to hear that you are still having issues.

Andy....you are just ornery.

Susan....better keep your eye on him.

Barb....I understand about not wanting to put up decorations.  I waffle back & forth.  But my kids are coming home this year so I need to get my rear in gear and do it for her.  Shelby loves our home at Christmas.

Bec...you're a doll.  Thanks for being you.

Cor....AAAAHHHHHH!!!  There, I screamed for you.  We know how you feel!

Janet....praying for your pain.  You need some answers, soon.  Pain can cause serious depression and I know you hurt.  How are the boys?  Getting any better?

There are so many that we haven't heard from....wish they would come out and play.  Jeanine, Bev in KS, Debbie D, Deb (Pooh) and so many more.  Are you all ok?  We miss you....

Love to all,
Peggy

Did you all miss me?  The trip was great - just to long.  Drive home was bad from Moberly to Kirksville as is was snowing & raining.  Slept most of the way home as my cold was worse.

Went to work Monday and got sent home as I was having bronchial spasms and trouble catching my breath.  Got in to see my pcp at 2:30 and my cold has now been diagnosed as bacterial pneumonia.  Geesh!  I knew I was sick but not that bad.  Off wor****il Friday so will see the dr again wednesday.  Taking more pills and the cough medicine with codiene (which really helps) and doing my breathing machine treatments every 4 hours.

 

You all take care - Sandy

wooohooo was this a pretty day or what!?! I just got home from the Y with my workout buddy Jade(my daughter) I feel so good.  We've been going 6 days a week for 3 weeks now.  Next week the trainer is going to put us on a weight lifting program.  Today was weigh day for me and I was praying that I made it to -50 but I was short 1 stinking pound!  Can you believe it 1 lb!  So hopefully I'll move right on past 50 this week.  I did loose 4.5 lbs for the week which is pretty good.  I swear being able to eat fruit now has changed my world. HA!  Its so easy to get all the protien in with fruit smoothies.  man o man.  Well I have to fix some dinner, if anyone needs any low carb recipes I have a bunch from when I was on this crazy low carb diet from this weight loss dr I use to go to. I made this shepards pie last night that's low fat, low carb, high protien and so easy, it takes minutes.  Anyway its great to know that this is my life now, the way I eat, the way I excercise, the way I think, forever!  NO MORE DIETS!!!! Can I get a WOOO WOOO?  Hope everyone has a great day! Lou (~.~)

I would love some low carb recipes, hubby is diabetic and we watch the carbs.

Anything would be appreciated.

Hello Dear Jan,

Yes, I know I must be a horrible "friend", not posting anything for so long. I am going to be updating my profile and posting a message explaining what has been going on with me since that wonderful day in Dec. 2006 when I had my surgery. I just had my 2 year anny and I guess I felt kind of homesick for the message boards. I can not promise frequent posts, though. I am now in school full time for my doctorate with my kids here and my husband gone. It's nothing terrible, and I will explain tomorrow (Wednesday). I have missed you all, and please be patient with me while I catch up on everything.

Love you all!!!

Kat
