What's new Thursday?
! Hope there's some sugar-free 
and maybe a toast 
or two in your honor. Enjoy the day.
Hi Eileen,
It really is great hearing you sound like you are making the transistion into your new life so well and are feeling like you are more challenged to produce then you were before you lost the old job. . . just proves that one door closes and another opens, but it does stink being in the hallway. . .
Last night went rather well and I came away with a renewed sense that one day soon I need to find a way to do what my passion is and find a way to get paid decently enough that I can quit going to a job that makes me feel like I'm somehow not good enough, which is not a good way to feel, especially when one knows that they are capable. . . anyway, I am looking into something, but it will take schooling and time and in the meantime I work at a job that helps make my life possible and I don't have to like it, I just need to remain grateful to have it and bring my A-game each and every day.
Here at work, writing this in between doing stuff. . . I took a nice long walk with Foxie Roxie this morning, as the humidity was comfortable and the heat of the day will not be had until later in the p.m., tonight is my AA homegroup meeting and then home to bed, exciting day, isn't it (lol). ..
Well to those of you with big life challenges and even those who are doing ok, I send thoughts of peace and strength to help you get through those challenges in the best possible of ways.
Hugs, Laureen
P.S. Where has Darlene been? I know I have not been on here a lot lately, but I don't recall seeing her post anything in a while. . .

My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen

Hi Eileen and all my OFF friends,
We had rain, thunderstorms and tornado warnings all afternoon yesterday. It really cooled things off and got rid of the humidity, yay. Sleeping last night was wonderful without the drone of the AC.
I'm depressed about gaining some weight back. I've been holding at the same weight for a while so I'm not worried about gaining all of my weight back but I am worried about not getting that last 30 lbs. off. I know what I need to do, I'm just not doing it. What the h*ll is wrong with me. I agree with those of you who say they should have operated on my brain too.
Eileen, those little cuts are the most annoying when they won't close up. I took a dig out of my pointy finger when I was washing windows a week and a half ago and it still isn't healed.
Nancy B., I hope you get some grandchildren somewhere down the road. I'm still surprised at mine. My only child/son was 26 when he married. They were saying they were having kids in five years. Then when all their friends started having babies, it changed to the two year plan. He will be 35 soon and he has four kids - 7, 5, 3 and 1 - all two years apart!
Tonite is Boston Med so I'll be watching that on TV. I need to get some things done around the house too, like always. I hear you Susan about the difficulty of really having a 'me' day. That's why it's hard to hide my enthusiasm when hubby will be away for a few days for work.
Happy Birthday Marcy.
Hugs to all.
