[mom x4 grandma x4]

Carrie,
the total post for the thread is in the upper right corner of each post.
I believe this was 2541, but cant remember for sure, but look in the right corner and you will see it. we want to make that to 4000 by the cruise.

Hope that is what you were asking?

Dont worry about remembering names, none of us remember everyone, just a few, but once we meet and you have face to go with the name it will be easier. I answer to about anything, Kathy,mom,grandma, hey you, fog horn , old lady. etc...

Hey Guys!

We were just getting too cose of the bottom of the page, so I wanted to knock us back up a few notches.

It is turning out to be a very nice day here today in Atlanta. Blue sky and low 70s so far!

Yes, I guess that's it. I just thought that it must be something higher. I guess I will need to post a lot more to help out.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY BILL AND SHELL


HAPPY ANNIVERSARY STEVE AND PAT


I wish you all many more happy years together.


Carrie - I too just went back to WW on Monday. It was very difficult with the kids home this summer to get to my meetings. I LOVE going to meetings and I know that is what helped me the last time. I took off over 100 lbs but have since put back on about 20. So I am working hard again and feeling great about it!

I'll check back later - gotta keep those posts coming - right?

YEAH KELLY ON 100 LBS!!! We've been trying to be healthy, and Bill's lost about 80 or 90 over the past couple of years. I just went to Kohl's and bought new jeans ... TWO sizes smaller!

Hey Sarah ... yep, looks like your guy won last night! I could not believe that it wasn't Dilana, especially after Tommy said it was the person with the highest number of votes for the night ... I was sure that meant Dilana. But I think Navarro has a little thing for her (and he's very single right now!) so I'm expecting that he will mentor her ... um, musically, y'know ... and we'll hear from her soon. Same with Toby.

Carrie: If you send me your e-mail address, I can send you the list of the nuts on this board ... which really helps in keeping everyone straight! We'd love to get a pic of your family for the list, too!

BUMPING UP. Happy Thursday.

Shell - did you send an e-mail about the late seating?? Didn;t somebody mention that in a post?? We are currently on early but want to switch to late if we can all get linked together. Did I miss the e-mail?

Thanks Shell. My DH also lost 80 lbs but put a little back on so now he is working hard with me which really helps! Good luck to you both!

Sarah, I sent it yesterday. I'll forward to you again right now.

OK everyone, I just got caught up on Dancing with the Stars, so I can join in the conversations Springer surprised me. Mario is unstoppable. Emmit blew me away (very graceful). I don't think I know any of the women!

 

[joelidol]

M*A*S*H, ah yes! Love that show. It's on now, the one where Colonal Flag gets a North Korean to be healed, then executed in Seoul. Um....?
Kathy, that's so cool that you saw it while it was still being aired. Boy that Hawkeye is such a character!

It's been a rainy day in PA. [Sigh], what gloom.

Did anyone get to see the "Twiced Charmed" play on the ship? We watched every play in the Walt Disney Theater during the week. Here's a clip:

Oh, and to reiterate what my mom said: Chocolate Lava Cake!!!
Soooooo much better than regular cake! My mom even said the trip won't be the same. Oh How true!
Refrige is back! Right on!
More nana's for you all!

Hi all!

"Abra-abra-cadabra, I wanna reach out and grab ya. . ." Did that one get mentioned during our walk down 80's lane? I have NO idea how that popped into my head!!

My DD5 asked if that was a real song or if I made it up!

Will try to post again tonight. Must run (literally!).

Carrie- I can't remember names either! The one I remember the most is Kathy and that's because she and I have been e mailing each other. She has been a great help with my many questions. THANKS KATHY!

I am a lifetime member of WW also. If you saw me now you'd never know it! I haven't been to a meeting in about 5 years. When I became a g'ma I had to get fluffy! It's in the grandparent rule book

Shell and Bill - I hope you have a great evening and celebrate that anniversary.

Kind of curious to see how this Survivor plays out. Anyone watch that? Ohmygosh! It's on now
Bye
Pat

Hey all: Good thrusday evening.....yes tomorrow is friday and I dont have to work this weekend.

Bill great on the workout. I really need to get on the treadmill myself, however, this little broken toe is still giving me some problems and I dont want to make it worse. I need it completely healed by the cruise.

Well my sister is working on our seating time. I'm waiting to here from her tonight to see if anything can be resolved. Once it is, I will notifiy the person in charge of late or early seating.

Will post later to keep us going....

***I broke my toe once and it took forever to heal. I never thought I'd walk normal again. It's in my top 5 of most painful events in my life. (probably #5)

When I talked to my travel agent to make my final payment, she said that it's really no problem to switch meal times. We were originally on the early seating for our cruise we scheduled for last year. Then we decided to switch to the late seating. When we postponed for a year, I has second thoughts and tried to switch to early again. I was told that I'd have to go on wait list (this was 14 months before the cruise!). When I made the final payment I told her to take us off the wait list. I think my kids will be o.k. being up that late on vaction. We can sleep in as long as we wish since we have inside cabins we won't even know better.

 

[Dixielady908]

Well my DD dog Louie decided to pee on my dogs bed. All I can say is this is going to be a very long year.

Well nothing going on here....

Just keeping us bumped up and keeping the post going.

Hi there!

Did any of you reality TV fans notice that on Wife Swap, the one wife dresses like a ? Maybe I'll get some ideas for pirate night on the cruise. Arrrrr.

We actually had a warm day today and the temps are supposed to get near 80 as we head into the weekend. I like fall, but I'm not quite ready for it yet.

Have a restful night everyone (especially Lynn & family!)!

Talk to ya tomorrow.

So i'm on a business trip in Toronto this week. Good meetings, all was just super. Raced to airport to try to make a 6:45 direct flight home to take the place of my trip through Philadelphia. Of course, I just missed it AND my flight to Philly was running 90 minutes late which became 2 and a half hours which meant I missed my connection to Pittsburgh which left me spending the night in the Philadelphia airport.

This was a first for me (and hopefully last). There were no hotels available between the airport and New Jersey and I didn't really get in until around 11:30 p.m. soooooooo I have been up all night (i can never sleep in these situations). And the worst part. I was in a part of the airport that did NOT have internet access. So boy was I bored for about half the time after I got tired of working and tired of reading. I watched a bit of Wedding Crashers but don't think I truly appreciated it because of how tired I am.

And for you eastern PA'ers who think - that's not so bad, the airport is kinda nice with all those rocking chairs and all. Nope. I was in the entry way of the F concourse with about 10 other flight missers/no hotel getters. And I was afraid to go anywhere else because I kept imagining getting locked out somehow and being stuck in the rain.

Truly it wasn't as bad as I had imagined but BOY am I tired. The most stressful part was when DW was trying desperately to get me a room right after I landed in Philly and calling with the bad news that every hotel she called was booked.

I'm actually still here right now sitting in the USAirways Club getting ready to get on a 6:30 a.m. flight home. Fingers crossed that it actually goes at 6:30. It's raining again.

So...if you think you're having a bad day......

IT'S FRIDAY!!!!!


The weekend is almost here!!

Tonight my son is bringing his dog Poncho over for us to dog sit for him for a week while he goes to Oregon for a vacation.
That will give Minnie someone to play with, when he wants to play. He is older and doesnt have the energy of a puppy.

Minnie is walking excellant already after only 5 walks. She doesnt even want to run up to other dogs now. She loves it when the neighborhood kids are out and want her to stop and get some petting along the way, adults too. It is a good way to socialize her with strangers. So far she has really loved it.
If you say the word WALK, you'd better mean it!!! She rears up on her hind legs and moves her legs like a horse does until you get the leash out.

well I am off to the store and bank this morning because I dont want to leave these two dogs along for a few days. No telling what kind of trouble they would find.
I'll check back later to see what's happening here.

Hey, our gas went down to $2.43 !!! YIPPEE!!!

Kathy
