20 to go!! I need some saucy, supportive, soul-sisters!!


Quote  |  Reply

I'd like to start an intimate group with people who have a GREAT sense of humor, can be honest without being snide, don't mind divulging their ups and downs, and have some inspiring words of wisdom and support to share.  I am looking for a few online accountablility pals to help me get over this last 20 pound hump!!  I have lost 38 pounds.  I know I am going to make it, it's just nice having some "slimming sisters" who have "been there" and are "going through that" to share the journey with.  What do you say...are you up for the challenge???

It make me sad for him too.  There really is some intelligence in his noggin.  I do wonder how smart he really is though.  He just took off in Dads pickup that he's not supposed to drive.  Legally he can't.  6 DIU's.  If he gets caught, the pickup gets impounded and he goes to jail. 

I'm wiped out after a day of grocery shopping.  Lugging around 4 grocery bags packed full (not the plastic, but the fabric kind) of canned goods and meats is a muscular work out. 

It was so windy today.  A huge limb snapped off a tree a half  block from where I live.  I didn't see any roof damage, but the limb is still up there on top.  There's a couple of trees very close to my back door that sort of bother me.  Sometimes you can hear them scraping at the side of the house. 

Believe it or not, I'm out of words.  I better get some sleep.  Have a great evening everyone, and good morning to you AQ. ~PC

You ladies make me feel bad for laughing at all the Norm stories. I havent been in hiding and have actually been sneaking on and off but I unfortunately dont have any juicy updates. This P90X program isnt all its cracked up to be. I am really starting to think that everyone has ditched the weightloss bandwagon...but NOT ME...I am determined to get this thing right!!! Have a great day!!!

Minx!  Moochie and I are still here.  We miss you!  I think you should be our next Queen! (I thought I could feel someone looking over my shoulder! You little Minx, you!!Cool

Besides BU's practical joke on Norm, April 1st was a lousy day.  I thought I had one more day to make revisions on both of my papers for classes.  My trial version of Word had EXPIRED!  Here's two papers that I can't submit! Yell  I found this website that says it's compatable with Word.  It's www.OpenOffice.com.  DON"T use it.  I had to retype everything and it took me all day.  (I should add that I couldn't copy/paste, edit or print)  I submitted the papers, thinking all is well.  This morning I had an email from one of my instructors.  She can't open what I sent because it's in .odt format.  She told me to change it to rich text.  (????).  So I go back to OpenOffice, and I got an error message, that some portions couldn't be configured.  I lost all of my hard work.  Believe me, it's not for the lack of trying to recover it.

I was on the phone with Mia half the afternoon trying to figure out what to do (my daughter is brilliant, ya know).  But we still couldn't get it.  I got a hold of my academic advisor and she tried to help me but couldn't.  I then notified my instructors and let them know what the frick was going on.  I got a hold with my friend Karen and explained my situation.  I just got an email and she told me she would get it for me.  Innocent I won't get the student rate because MS has to verify that I'm a student.  They said it would take 1-2 weeks to verify.  (They got to be kidding!)  I'll pay the full bazillion dollars and make payments to Karen, and I won't have to worry about it again.

Now I will go to bed not so stressed as I have been all day.  I think I forgot to eat dinner.  I swear, I don't even remember.  I am drained, so I better get to bed and dream about Norm leaving to go to work tomorrow.  (I'm picturing a boot in his arse) ~PC

LOL PC... about the boot NOT the assignment loss!  That would have to majorly suck!  Same same here too Minx.... Still stressed, still behind in uni, still not eating right, still no exercise this week, still down on me yarda yarda.... life goes on....

Why do you think you the only one on the weight loss bandwagon Minx?  If you mean this thread then.... yup your probably right with me but PC is still yo  yo yoing!

Hey the yo got me thinking about ho and I have been meaning to ask.... We have had a song come out in the last couple of week (probably been out for a year over there) and it goes....

JHo....

* EDIT: had to google it as I forgot the line I was trying to remember everytime I heard it to tell you guys LOL... I just found out it is by the Pussycat Dolls and the lyrics are:

Jai Ho!

So now JHo there is a song about you AS WELL!!!(even if it is sung by a chick)  Double famous!  Woot Woot....

K... now I wasted WAY too much time need to get back to study Yell

I think I'm frustrating Norm this morning.  I've walked out to the kitchen 3 times and each time he was watching porn.  I'd turn around, and he'd just be shutting it down to regular TV.  I'm half tempted the make a dozen more trips, just for the pure spite!   Another 4 hours and he gets a double booting when he leaves for work. 

He brought home a brand new garbage disposal on Tuesday night.  It's still sitting on the counter in the box.  Since he was too tired (whatever!) on his days off, I don't see it getting installed unless I do it.  There's two boxes of brand new mini-blinds that have been here for over a year that need to get trimmed down (3/16") because they just won't fit into the windows.  I'll probably just chisel out a grove to make them fit.  I don't know why he buys this stuff and let's it sit around.  There's also a lawn tool organizer that his dad bought last Spring just waiting to be hung up.  All the tools sat outside all winter. 

Enough groaning about Norm.  Looks like it's going to be beautiful today.  Kisses to Larry~PC

Ewww.... everytime I think of him watching porn I gag (if there was an emoticon of vomiting I would insert it here)

I thought of another fantastic mind playing game you could do with Norm.  Put a big black dildo in his bed one night or next to him when he is passed out or in one of his draws to find later... he will look at it and start wondering what he gets up to LOL!  To top it off put some gay porn books around with it hehehehe....

Okay, maybe thats taking it a little too far.  But it would be funny (or do I just have a sick sense of humor?)

Today = Study and NO procrastination! 

* ~ Kisses back from Larry ~ * Moochiepoo

You provide the dildo and the books, and I'll happily sabotage him.  I think we named the wrong one Minx.

I didn't get my Word 2009 today like I was supposed to.  Karen gave me a Office 2000 to use until Monday.  Well, there's a problem with it. I can't get it to open up ****.  Yell I did a virus scan which took over an hour uninstalled it, then reinstalled it.  Crap, damn and Norm.  <- 4 letter words. 

Time for food.  Favorite time of the day.  (unfortunately-Surprised)  ~PC

I am feeling your pain PC! I am looking at getting a laptop soon... a mac one.  I am not looking forward to figuring out how to use it and where everything is and the programs ect ect.  I have only ever had a pc.  I am looking forward to having it tho!

Taking Ez and a mate to a kids day at a local golf club.  There is water slides, face painting, jumping castle, mini golf.... all free apparently.  Then they sting you on food and drinks!  I claimed driver so then I can't drink alcohol (too expensive in $ and cals Undecided)  Should be a fun day for all!

Hope you have a better day today PC... I will send good microsoft vibes your way!!!

I'd love to have a laptop!  I get so tired of sitting at this make-shift desk.  I shouldn't complain as I used to have to share a computer with you know who.  I always felt like I had to sanitize the keyboard before I used it. Undecided 

Tomorrow (Sunday) is a big day.  Somehow I got roped into a church event where we do nicey-nice stuff (maintenance, yard work, blah, blah) for places like the Boys & Girls clubs and schools.  I am the chairperson for feeding the homeless at the Homeless Shelter.  I've got a group (hopefully) of volunteers that will be bringing (hopefully) comfort food casseroles (hopefully).  We'll be feeding 85 clients (homeless).  I suppose now is as good a time as any because I can't do anything on the computer until Monday for school. 

BU is all mad at me.  I had bought her some of her Special Kitty moist cat food, then I went and left it with the food that I dropped off at the shelter this afternoon.  She's got a bowl of dry food, so she's not going to starve.  Her and I shared a can of Tuna for lunch.  She just turned up her spoiled little nose at it.  Yell If I wasn't so attached to her, I'd trade her for a turtle.  At least the turtle would eat some lettuce.  (I would never trade my BU).  I felt Larry shiver at the thought! Tongue out  That's it for tonight.  Better get my beauty sleep.  I'm over due.Tongue out  ~PC

I hung back from posting another one last night, just to give someone else a chance to be #650.  Tongue out~PC

Couldn't help yourself huh? lol  Ez is home today sick....  After dinner I felt really sick, she had a sore tummy and went to bed.  She woke up and vomited about an hour later... yum yum!

She is feeling a bit better this morning but is running a temp. still.  Nurse mummy will fix her up tho Innocent  Not much else to report... going to have to fit some study in today one way or another!

Well, you know me; selfish and seeking fame and if being #650 gets me recognition, then I deserve it!

Ez is a nickname for Ariel?  Having barfing kids is easier than barfing husbands, don't you think?  I hope she gets to feeling better and doesn't give it to lil' Larry. 

I see that Queenie popped in to her journal page on the 30th, but didn't bother to stop in here to say hello Cry to us, her faithful and loyal subjects. 

Dinner went to well at the shelter.  Everyone that brought food outdid themselves.  I was kind and brought home bags of food for Norm. Innocent  I cant believe they were going to throw it out!  I bet I brought home 10 lbs of baked potatoes!  I came home with more food than I took!  There was one A-hole punk there that thought his poop didn't stink.  He was standing next to me bragging about something to someone and I heard him say "watch this".  He spoke into the phone and said "call bitch" and the phone automatically dialed his bitch.  Then he started talking all "hood", brothers, gang lingo to his bitch on the phone.  I just wanted to slap him.  He was just so rude!  I could have been the Virgin Mary for all he knew (QUIT laughing Moochie!). 

That's all for tonight.  Fingers crossed that I get my Word  for the computer tomorrow.  ~PC

 

Hey Kitty,

Its me Kass, I have fallen off the wagon the last 3 months. Ive gained back 7 lbs. I look and feel awful. But I am going to try to get back with the program. write and let me know what's going on in your world. I was really glad to see that the saucy sistas were still alive and kickin. I have missed ya'll and didn't realize how much til I logged in . My scales realize how much ya'll help me. It is groaning under the added weight. Hello to all , let me hear from ya. Kass 

HI LADIES!!!

Moochie~The thought of you singing the Pussycat Dolls is JUST hilarious to me!!!

Tonnie~Poor thing. I hope that you got all of that computer stuff figured out. I am no genius when it comes to computer software. I have two laptops that currently arent functioning at 100% but I'm too lazy to take them in and see how much it would cost to fix them.

I hope everyone is doing well!

Minx - funnily enough my daughter thinks it is hilarious when I sing as well Surprised  Lucky I am studying for another career!  So how is the raw eating going?

Kass - don't kick yourself too much.  Think on the positive side.... you have made it back here so your on the right road.  You lost those 7lbs once - you can loose them again!  Trust me.... I've been gaining and loosing the same few pounds over and over and over and over and over and over and over again Sealed

PC - I sent happy microsoft vibes out last night so with any luck you should get your software today.  I am not getting my laptop now.... not for awhile yet at least. 

We put a contract on a house and all is looking well for it to go through so I will be moving soon - yay!  Just another thing to occupy my time and energy - sorry study... you go on the backburner again Yell 

Back into training today.... time to burn off my slothing around for the past week - somehow I think it is gonna hurt!  Oh I won the comp and got a subscription to Womens Health magazine so that is pretty cool huh!

Hello, loves!!!  Am I still welcome to show my face around here???  I took myself out of the game for a while...sick and tired of NOT being committed to losing that last 20, but obviously not enough to get my ass in gear!!  In fact, I'm up FIVE FREAKIN' POUNDS!!!  I've been gorging for two or three days, then eating clean for a day or two, REPEAT!!!  I go to the gym 2 or 3 days one week and then not at all the next.  And the topper was when my dear friend was diagnosed with stage 2 cancer of the tongue.  They will be removing half of her tongue and attempting to reconstruct it using an artery from her left arm.  She will have to undergo months of therapy to relearn how to swallow and talk.  So, I guess I've been wallowing in self pity, then immersed in my friend's crisis, and now it's spring break and time for me to refocus, recommit, and reestablish myself here, if you'll have me back.  

It's going to take me half of spring break just to catch up on all the posts!!!  I truly have missed all of you!!  PC and Moochie ~ I find myself down without a daily dose of your demented humor!!!  (How's Norm???)  Well, I guess I'll spend an hour or so STARTING to catch up.  

Fat and Sassy ~ Queenie Kiss

WHEW!!!  I just got caught up.  Here's the gist of the past 2 months...

Minx is now the Queen (I should have known the jester would dethrone me!);

Moochie is now the Minx (due to her filthy mind and willing body);

Norm is still a porn-lovin, mess-makin', wanker-whackin' drunkered;

Meemers quit smoking *KUDOS, girl*;

Duncan is in hydrotherapy while JHo flits around the country;

Kickass is still fighting the good fight;

Johnnycakes has abandoned our thread; AND

Pussycat has stomped on BU, kicked me to the curb, & scared off another 2 newbies!

Well, gals, I'm going to try to hang around as long as PC doesn't chase me off, too.

Catch ya later ~ Queenie Kiss  (or am I required to find a new nickname???)

Great summarization of our antics without you.  We are all sick-o's.  You are still the Queen as no one could ever really replace you!  Glad to know you've pulled your head out of your arse and rejoined us!  (Sorry about your friend. Cry)

Two days of really nice weather!  Up in the high 60's.  Today is supposed to be more of the same, then back to Winter (or so the weatherman said).

STILL NO MS WORD!!!  Now, I have to go to the college library and redo my papers.   Yesterday I had to control myself.  When I went to the shop to pick it (MS Word) up and it wasn't there I was ready to explode on anyone and everyone.  I hated UPS, Microsoft, Anatomy & Physiology, and everyone or thing that got in my way.  I need to add T-Mobile to that list.  Yell  Calm, cool, it's not worth it!  Kiss my jesterly arse to them all!!!! and #$%% as well!

Have a lovely day ladies.  ~PC   

 

60's is nice weather???  I would be wearing my Nanook of the North parka!!! 

The weather has been GORGEOUS here for the past few weeks!!!  Sunday, DH and I took the boys to Fort Myers Beach for 4 hours...86 and sunny!!  Yesterday my friend, Tammy, and I went to the beach for 4 hours (before she goes in for her pre-op)...82 and sunny!!!  Today, it's 73 FREAKIN degrees!!!  Tomorrow it's supposed to be 74 FREAKIN degrees!!!!  WTF??!!??  Just in time for spring break, the weather is going to be UNCOOPERATIVE, UN-beach friendly, and UNBELIEVEABLY and UNSEASONABLY COLD!!!!  PFFT!!!

Oh well, I'm babysitting my girlfriend's 9 year old twin boys today and tomorrow.  I guess we'll go to the movies and then to McDonald's playland during today's cold snap.

I'm off to entertain my way through the day!!  Chat more later!

Kisses ~ Queenie Kiss

 

WELCOME BACK QUEENIE!!! We really did miss you around these parts!

Tonnie~I should have known it was too good to be true (even though I did BRIEFLY enjoy playing the role of the Queen)!

I thought you guys would like to know that they call me the health expert at work. Everyone is always bringing ridiculously, unhealthy snacks to work for our meetings and I really want to suggest that when they bring DONUTS, CHIPS, CAKES, CANDY, PIE, etc....that they also consider bringing FRUIT AND VEGGIES! Well there was a meeting today and even though there was ALOT of bad food there, I noticed that there was a BIG bowl of mixed grapes. Another thing, I get the feeling that people are upset/offended when I dont want to eat their food or go out for lunch, but I REALLY DONT CARE. I dont wake up at 530 to workout, cook breakfast (and lunch), just for the he!! of it. I do it because I want to eat sensibly while at work and because I care about what I put into my body. One guy even had the nerve to suggest that I was simply "starving myself." SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT PLANET THESE PPL ARE LIVING ON?????

Enough with the venting....have a great day!

Allergy Remedies
Is It Possible to Go Natural?
The side effects of allergy medications keep some people from using them. Natural remedies can be a great alternative, but some are more effective than others.
