We knew you would do it!



(Today Sunday School, tomorrow the country!)
(Do you feel like Hillary Clinton?)

Thanks....but you are a big president yourself!!!!!

Yeah if I got on the scale that would be the prognosis as well! Now that egg nog chai is available I officially threw in the towel

ummm John, here comes my next big confession. I do not own a scale. I weigh in at the Dr. once a month, or more if I need to and I always weigh backwards, so I have no idea how much I wiegh right now. 1 year ago I asked and I was within 15 pounds of my goal weight and the DR. changed my goal wieght by 10 pounds so it was 25. Then I was really really bad and got fatter and had to buy bigger jeans. Then I got even worse, so I can tell you that I run for 40 minutes every day. But I cannot tell you how much I have lost or how much I weigh.

I am trying really hard. Does that count?

My MIL wanted me to go to Longaberger basket bingo with her today. I never play bingo. I went because my SIL and my friend ( the new SS VPres.) were also going. I went directly from church and I won a basket! I won a basket with liner and protector.

I will tell you my day...I will give you it play by play...I will of course break it up....(I need to help the post count)

Wake up and get everyone ready for Chruch...rushing around as always.

The current pres. and the sec. did not have the ballots run off. The pres. "This was not my fault." She was actually telling people this! I did not hear this as I was actually teaching SS to little children. This is what was told to me later.

We finally get our ballots. The current Pres was pacing the halls (instead of going to SS like everyone else.) After she got the results she sat in the church office and cried. This woman sings in the choir (which I direct.)
She cried for the ENTIRE service. She was bawling during the anthem. I was sitting directly in front of her. It was horrible. I feel like this woman might have a nervous breakdown or something. It was unbelievable.

We despiratly needed a change. One of the counters told my DH that it was a total landslide. I have been praying for her. I never thought she would take it so badly. I didn't want to hurt her....it was just time for her to give it up. KWIM?

The story gets "better."

Oh my! Do you want to give my doctor's number to her? It sounds like she needs some serious help there.

Yes

 

[DrHug]

How precious!! So do you have to pick just one to put on the card? How would you do that?

Aww! Just do a Comp Card. How cute she is!

 

[klineyqueen]

My MIL dropped me off at the house and my DH was loading the kids in the car to go to our friends house. We had a great night. We played cards, had dinner, and a general good time. I missed DHW. That is ok....I would rather hang with my friends. There were 2 couples there besides DH and I. We really did have a fun night.

So I really was MIA. I wasn't back home all day.

Brandi,
Sorry it went so oddly for you this morning.
This one's for you.

Well you were just the winning woman today!!

 

[elaineteresa]

WHy would you do that? I didn't think that people actually drank dry milk! Look what I know!!! Yikes!

I think that was one of those little economizing tricks that were passed on to women. Maybe the pediatricians promoted it - I'm not sure. But my mother did it as well and insisted that we drink one quart of milk a day. She mixed it 50-50.

 

[MommyMinnie]

This is for Todd

 

[Jhalkias]

You sound just like my DH!!!!

Well thank goodness there are more of us. I mean, c'mon, no self-respecting guy could wear those . . .

(I am sure I will see some 6'5" 250lb linebacker wearing these on our cruise, that was lurking on our boards, will recognize me from my sig, and throw me overboard)

Todd Again

I honestly think she needs some kind of help. It was very over the top sort of reaction. Honestly, if I were her and was that upset...I would have gone home (being that I am the director and that is a paid position...I couldn't leave...but she could)....not sat in front of the whole church and sobbed. Many of the choir members were annoyed because of how she was while we were singing.

Angie and Dennis

Brandi,

Brandi, it sounds like your church will be the better for their decision. No one should be that invested in a position.

 

[DrHug]

Alright, I don't want to turn into a Brandi and not leave.

Hey...I resemble that remark!

Last night I shot an elephant in my pajamas!

 

[klineyqueen]

Well you were just the winning woman today!!

Today was my lucky day!

 

[Jhalkias]

Warmed up!
​

Yeah, go ahead and laugh!

I had to go to Dick's sporting goods today to get some new gloves and some warmer socks. I also got new long Johns. I told Amy I am NOT going to freeze at the football game this weekend. Watch now, it will probably be in the 50's again! My fingers and toes froze this weekend at the game!
