Hi Cathy!
Welcome back - glad that you stopped by!
And that's so exciting that you have a WDW trip coming up so soon! Where will you be staying? Any special plans for this trip (ie: are you planning to see some things that you haven't had a chance to visit before, etc.)? Are your DH and DD's all excited about the trip, too?
I will be making my 14th "pilgrimage" to WDW in exactly 4 months!
It will be my DH's 5th time there - we have gone for the past 5 springs, consecutively (he proposed to me there on one of those trips, then we returned during the same week, the subsequent 2 years to celebrate our honeymoon and then our first anniversary!
)! Hoping that Linda ("Slightly Goofy" or "SG", as she has come to be known!) and her DH might be there at the same time as we are, this year!
Wow! Everyone has stopped by - where have I been?? Great to hear from you, Angie! And congratulations on your great success with the South Beach Diet! That is fantastic! I'm sure that you will look amazing in your Mardi Gras dress! I can't believe that it's almost that time of year again - it seems like just yesterday, you had sent us photos from one of last year's Mardi Gras Balls! Don't feel badly about the weather down there - it's still hovering between the single digits and low double digits (temperature-wise) up here, with wind chills below zero and lots of snow and ice on the ground - yuck!
You hang in there, Depply - I'm sure that you'll do a fantastic job with your weight losing, as well! And don't deny your appetite......just kinda "refine" it a little bit - that's what works best for me!
You're right - we probably will have to start a new "chapter" of our thread, soon.........when we hit 150 pages......we'll leave that to Linda, our fearless Founder, since she gathered everyone together and started this one! The Suite will live on, on the Community Board!
I'm sorry that your signature disappeared, too - is there any chance of getting it back, or are there new Boards regulations about signatures? How is school going, so far? I agree - Linda gives great and very wise advice!
Hi Elaine! Nice to see you! Getting psyched for DL? Do you have a definite date for your trip, yet? What's been new out there? How are Luis and the kitties?
Hi Linda! Thanks as always for your sweet words! How is everything going, out there? How are all of your boys? And how is your SIL feeling? How are YOU feeling, for that matter? Again, don't worry about those "alleged" extra pounds - I'm telling you that they will disappear when you least expect it!
Well, I'm back in school again now - I guess that my break couldn't last forever!
I think that I've begun to "iron out" my career confusion, too. I'm planning to transfer to my original alma mater, Douglass College (at Rutgers) next semester, then apply to the Rutgers School of Public Policy (as an affiliated Douglass student), and change to the Public Health major, hopefully next fall. I think that that would probably fit better with my academic and professional background, would require a lesser amount of classes............and would "save" me from all of the math and science classes that I would have to suffer through if I stayed with Nutrition!
I'm taking all Nutrition classes this semester - some of them even apply to the Public Health major, so that's good. Plus, I'm interested in that subject matter. I think that it will also be easier for me to find a job - now and in the future - in the Public Health field that works (better than Nutrition) with my set-in-my-ways-weekday-work-schedule-"requirements", as well!
So hopefully that will all work out!
Not too much else to report from the icy Garden State!
Hope that all is well with all of you! Take care and stay warm!
hello ladies ! just thought id stop in quickly and thank Linda for her always excellent advice and to wish everyone happy weight losing ....i went to the gym today but its my appetite that really kills me
