It's Friday.......let's chat!

LaChelle, That I know of, no one has talked about meals at all. I know that Bill, Gail & I are talking about trying out Buffalo Run for dinner on Thursday. We'll be staying at Santa's Lodge and I think there is a restaurant in there. If so, we'll probably just eat there for breakfast. I'll have my cell phone with me so you (and anyone else going) are welcome to give me a ring and see if we can meet up for any of the meals. We should get there early Thursday afternoon and we'll be heading back to Indy Saturday before noon. My cell # is in the directory. Sherri

Lachelle, We are staying at Lake rudolph. I called yesterday for reservations. (i forgot) They only had Thursday available, I am on waitlist for friday night. We will be down there early thursday morning. Check in is at 1:00. See ya there. :) SHanna

Good Morning everyone! What a beautiful Friday. Tomorrow we head out for Matt's company picnic at Holiday World. Unfortunately, that means we won't be able to join you all next weekend. Then I won't be able to attend the clothing exchange because I have a family reunion in Michigan. It seems like I'm not going to see most of you until my wedding. The Sunday after my wedding a bunch of us are going to Turkey Run for the day so if anyone is interested in doing that stick around for the next day. Lots of neat trails out there. Cleaning house today and taking care of Q. I think his meds are finally working. At least he acts like he feels better. Love and Blessings Jodi

Hi There everyone,   Alot has been happening at work & my hrs. have changed- 2-7 M. & T. & 9-2 W. next week- then we are gone to see our daughter & SIL.       for 10 days !!!! I do most of the cooking & the guys love to fish,plus theres our nightly campfire & dominoes/card challange. Wendy & I get to spend some real quality time together, playing cards. taking walks, and just being in each others presence.        Jodi, I bet your plans are getting all done and you are getting excited!!! Did you get your cake ordered? I found out the girl I was going to talk to is now at Crawford's there, so that is why I couldn't get ahold of her. You might try there. Gail- what time is your appt??? I have to go to Lebanon at 10am. for my b-12 & then be at work by 2pm. -let me know and maybe we can hook up!!! If we get an hr. or 2 together it would be "heaven"  Oh update on lil Aiden- he will need to wear a helmet for 2 yrs. to shape/protect his head. He is so little that it won't be a problem for him- just Mom& Dad are tasking it hard. She thinks she's to blame for it- not!! keep them in your prayers please.  Brenda- feel better sweety!

Shanna, LaChelle, everybody~~Have fun everyone at Holiday World!!! Gotta go get ready for my day- so have a great weekend, keep a smile on your face and the Son in your heart!     

Good Morning Folks!  It's a glorious day. Today is a Big day for me.....I was 184 this morning. That is exactly 100 pounds from my first weigh in when I started this journey at my pcp's office last sept/oct. I think this day was even bigger for me than the day I hit ONederland. I went out to dinner last night at Zydecos in Mooresville with a bunch of excoworkers. I had a great time and Man was I the talk of the table. It felt great.I am flying throught the 180's. My new protein shake concoctions seems to be really helping. Last night was Pina colada blast! Powder/pineapple/banana/SF SB Vanilla syrup/ ice/1% milk. YUMMO! I work tonight, I should clean my house but I am just not feeling it, today. Counting down my days for Holiday World. Can't wait:) Everybody have a great weekend...Skinny thought xoxo shanna

Shanna what is your recipe for the pina colada protein shake? That sounds pretty good.

Well, seeing as I don't dump ;( I am ok with fruit so I have been doing alot of fruit smoothies lately, I am so sick of anything containg SF choc. or Peanut butter YUCKO! So I have been using body fortress 1 scoop (26g) protein powder, 8 ozs. 1% milk ( 8g), 1/2 tiny petite banana, 2 tbsps. pineapple ( in its own juices) 1 dash of SF Starbucks vanilla syrup ( 6.95 for a 1 liter bottle at starbucks**** and blend ( 34 g protein). I did get some SF Davinci syrups at our New Camby walmart today...they have Vanilla, carmel, Kaluha and hazelnut all SF! SMaller bottles but a little cheaper than Starbucks...I have been experimenting. I am loving the Sf Carmel Frappacinos right now so I am going to attempt to make my own with my Protein Powder. ( wish me Luck) XOXOX Shanna
