The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 10

[julia & nicks mom]

I just wanted to let you all know that I reorganized my design gallery and started a thread with a breakdown of my gallery and questions I get asked the most about making shirts -

this is the link - it is also in my signature - I know that you all are pretty good at pointing people towards my things and this would help you all out!!

Hey, everybody. I just got a PM from Paula. Her SIL Tammy passed away this morning at 12:56. She is pretty upset, and is getting ready to leave for her MIL's house. She will be gone until Monday or Tuesday of next week. She said to thank you all for your prayers, love and support, and asks for more prayers as they go through this next little while.

to Paula and her family.

Paula, I am so deeply sorry.

Glynis, thanks for sharing the info.

We had a little what we call "weather" today....

I left work late and as I pulled the handle to get into my car, the sky opened up. I left my mirror tucked in. I had opened the window last time to flip it and gotten soaked. Lesson learned. I just used my rear view. There weren't many cars on the road. I turned the corner and heard this crack!!! and part of a tree fell right on top of my car.

I love Miss Blueberry. She saved my life again. The limb just bounced off the top and onto the road and I rolled right over it. It happened so quick I didn't have time to react at all, didn't have a heart attack or p@@p my pants. Nothing. I just pulled over and couldn't believe I was alive....

One of my staff's daughter led the news tonight. A tree fell on her house. She had just walked in when BOOM. It is resting on her roof. Sheared off her shutters and the framing over her door. Didn't penetrate her roof though. We are both blessed.

I'm calling it a night....

Steffy, I am so glad that you are alright!

Oh, I can't wait to see the pictures. The pictures of your last get together were so darling! And Olive Garden!!!!! I'm so jealous! That's one place I don't dare go, yet. Too much temptation for me! Have some chocolate lasagna for me, ok?

NO! Not sabatoging the diet. Having plain salad and a plain chicken dish. I'm going to be good tonight, but enjoy the company.

That is just so terribly sad. I'm sure she died of a broken heart. They will be in my prayers.

I am so glad to hear that. I was trying to decided what would be weight watcher friendly. Maybe we can request our own salad bowl with no dressing on it with our dressing on the side. We will have to see.

That's a good idea! I want to check their website before going to see what would be good to choose.

ETA: I just checked. They will do a low fat dressing on the side, have several low fat entrees (at least one in each category), will substitute whole wheat pasta on any pasta dish for less carbs, and will substitute veggies. Sounds good to me!

I finished 4 shirts. My kids decided on some more designs so we needed more shirts. Ok so all 4 of us get in the car (I promise them McD's if they are good in AC Moore). so they all get in, I put the key in the ignition & nothing!!!! no noise..nothin!!!!!! So my car is dead...it's not even that old (2002). I called Dana & he said he'd look at it when he got home. Hopefully its just the battery or something. so now I have no car & 3 kiddies in the house all day!

When I went on a surprise trip last May - we couldn't get castle reservations - about a week before - i called and had my choice of several times - as people get closer -they will make changes to their plan - about a month out -I would start calling EVERYday!!

Kate - I sent you a PM.

Wow, do you have willpower, or what!!! Enjoy your evening!

I was told by a co-worker that the breadsticks are 3 points. I am not sure if I want just 1 breadstick that bad or not. I went to the website and I think I am going to get the Chicken Giordino......that is only 12 points. I have 14 points left today so I can have that with a salad with ff dressing. Depending on the portion I may do your trick and ask for a to go box as soon as it comes out and set 1/2 aside for lunch tomorrow. Yeah.....that's my plan!!!!

You won't be sorry! You guys will be talking and laughing so much tonight, that half will fill you up, and then tomorrow you can have the other half, and remember the fun you had with the DDA'ers. It will be like reliving the moment!

Ok, I actually did some shirts for the twins yesterday. I found some darling stencils at Michael's and thought I could use them with the spray paint technique that I did for Katie's party, without having to mess with flour and water, and peeling it all off. Here's the results. Tell me what you think.

The Pooh bear is easier to see, but Leslie wanted both blue and pink for her Tinkerbell shirt. As long as she is happy, right? I'm going to be looking for more of these stencils!!!!!

Who do you think my first phonecall of the day from work is to? And I'm pulling a "Jo trick" and asking for both two and four just in case they do have a four top that they don't want to give me. But don't tell the dining board. They might yell at me.

I didn't know about the whole wheat pasta option...that's REALLY nice. I LOVE wheat pasta...

No, not willpower. Called "I spent the money on the program and John would kill me if I cheat and have to stay on longer than needed"!

Lynn,

Where did you see how many points the dishes are?
