WI day! I hadn't weighed myself in 2 weeks-yikes!

I am at 148 lbs! I am very, very happy with that!

I have also decided to put exercise on my "to do" list each day. I have all this stuff on my list and never put exercise on it, why? I don't know, but I will from today on!

Gotta jet, but I am going to re-goal tomorrow... see you then!

Hi Jay-nee,

Congrats on the WI Sounds like you are busy, but doing good. I'm so happy to hear it. Maybe I should stop by the budget boards, too. I really need to get my finances in better order

How's the "To Do" list coming?

Sunny

Gosh, it's been so long since I've popped back here! yikes. I do think about it but never seem to get enuf comp time to do it! argh! There just aren't enuf hrs in a day sometimes...

Well, a quick rundown on my life in the last few weeks. My divorce is finalized! The offical date is 09/13/05! To celebrate, I brought the kids to WDW for a true BUDGET trip (total $1255), my DM footed about $900 of it too. She knew we needed a BREAK! It was awesome.

So now I am working on a budget. A real budget. It's hard but I'll plug along at it. I need to make things work so that I can stay working PT until my DD graduates fro HS (6 1/2 yrs). It'll be tough but it's what the kids and I both want so we can do it. I've read and been told that a real budget can take several months to fine tune so it'll will take a bit. I'm up for the challenge though.

I can feel that winter is coming now... That bums me out 'cause it makes me think of oil bills, shoveling, being cold, etc. Not fun!

Well, that's about it for the moment, just wanted to catch my WISH buddies up. Miss you guys!

Happy Wednesday!

Glad to see you back on the boards. Congrats on the divorce being final.

Good luck with the budget.

Have a great day.

Glad to see you back and glad to hear that you got to take a break!!!! I'm sure you deserved it (I've been divorced too so I totally understand).

Keep on
Chris

Good to see you! and, Congratulations! It sounds like you are doing really well; this is a particularly hard time to make a budget, with the rise in gas and food prices.

It's so great you got away to WDW! Nice way to celebrate.

 

[Blueeyes101817]

Congrats on the Disney Trip. I hope your family had a great time at the Magic Kingdom. Your mom is wonderful for supporting your trip plans. You've had a difficult time but sounds like things are turning around! Congrats on making goal weight. I'm right behind you but it seems like its taking me forever!

 

[Blueeyes101817]

hope you are doing good jaynee!!!!

 

[jay-nee]

I missed you all! It's been so busy here! But, so awesome!

My brother and his family came up from TX to visit for almost a week and we had a huge family reunion (my DMs side of the family), we've never done that, but it was so great. I got to meet my two nephews for the 1st time ever! They are 9 and 11 yrs old and, boy, did we have so much fun! So much so that they might be coming out for a week next year to hang out with the kids and I again! WAHOO! They stayed with us for 6 days while their Mom and Dad went to a wedding (and visiting) in VT - where my brother used to live.

I so want to catch up with everyone! I missed you guys! Actually, I haven't even weighed myself in weeks (not good...) so I will do that now. (I'm kind of scared...) I weigh 152 lbs. Not bad considering all that I've been bad with...yikes...

Just an FYI, I am making progress on my budget. So far, so good. We are not doing ANY extra driving and are working on keeping our grocery budget in check (between $200-$300 a month). I have kept Cable for now because they cut me a break on my package so I will only be paying $32.56 a month for the next six months (including taxes). It will give me some time to reevaluate in the interim. Thankfully, I only pay $9.95 for my Internet, I don't think I can beat that anywhere. I don't use the phone unless I have to.

Well, my plan will be to get back into my exercise routine and drop to between 145 and 148 again, I felt really goo there. Not good to creep up again.

So, I hope you all are doing well.

BTW, thanks a million you guys for stopping by and saying HI! I'll be doing the same over the next few days. See you then!

AND, Happy Tuesday!
