Hi All,
I am actually bored with all of this time off !

I have not had a chance to stop by. My daughter and I had Friday off and we are off again today. I am actually getting bored with being home and we may have a delay tomorrow due to the weather !

I have been compliant, just no loss or gain this week...Kinda odd, but maybe my body is getting ready fo a big drop !

I hope that you all had a great Valentine's Day...I went to see the movie"Valentine's day" with DH...Cute, light and enjoyable...

No hot passion here- hubby too stressed with being out of work:(

More later !

Hey Pam,

Thinking of you..... We need your smiley face here.

It's Sunday and I've had a really weird week...
Bad headaches, got a TOM (Which I NEVER do anymore- ) and no energy. I think the stress of everything I have to deal with is affecting me physically. I had a crazy, and intense week at work...I thought it would never end. My new principal observed me running a social skills group for first graders-part of my evalaution (she is very anal and intense) and I had meeting after meeting, with NO time to eat, drink, or pee ! So much for mf supp'd every 3 hours ! I would end up eating 3 bars at once, on my way home from work and I was starving...

So I decided to check back in...and recover...and start a new week. I still feel really crampy and bloated...
I am trying (sometimes i just get scared and start crying) not to panic about our mortgage. My DH, is not working as you know and I am worried about how to make it all work. We had a forbearance loan for 6 months due to another $$ loss from his previous business, and that is over. We submitted more paperwork for another hardship loan...They said "No can do-since your husband is out of work, we can't depend on your salary alone to make a reduced payment...WHAT???? :shock I make a decent salary, I think... So now I don't know what to do.
I have to pray and hope that an answer will come...Wish I knew the answer, but for today I don't...

Congrats to all of you who have lost this week ! Yay for you !!

I will check in again when things are better...

Oh wow-I really don't know what to say, except that you are coping as best you can in this bad situation. I hope everything works out or at least allows you to see some light at the end of the tunnel. As far as the job goes, I hate that you are having to deal with a new principal. My observation will be this week and I am dreading it. Here's to wishing you happy and positive thoughts!

Tuesday..SNOW DAY !!
No school again, but I actually welcomed it this time.
I fell 2 times last night in our driveway, with just a light coating of snow...
*sigh*
My DH and I are meeting with a company called N.A.C.A to help us with our mortgage issues...
Pray it helps reduce our monthly mortgage payment...
Still can't see the light, but I'm trying...

Thanks for your kind thoughts OKSOONERGIRL26 !!

[Susie Q]

Hang in there, girl, and keep the faith. I pray that you're able to see some light soon!!

Hugs to ya!

Hey there Pam! Just wanted to give you a

Hey pam Thinking about you.

[katesmom]

Good Morning...
Thanks to.... Twanda, SusieQ,Joy,Lifelovinaries, and Katie
I am not here to report any weight loss today...Just to say hello and thank you for your support.
it means a lot to me in so many ways...Well your prayers are working !

1) Last week my DH won $200.00 in a lottery scratch off ticket which enabled us to buy enough food until payday
2) I got a gold coin at Big Y (and I have NEVER won a gold coin) when I was at the checkout
3) We got a message that we can still continue to pay 1/2 of our mortgage payment until they are done reviewing our file

I consider these few things huge in the scheme of things...

As far as my MF plan...Let's just say that tomorrow is a new re-start for me...
My case of mf supp's came yesterday and I haven't even opened it yet...

I pray that I can get going again and as you all know, once you're in the grooove, everything in your life looks a little better !
Sure hope that you all have a fantastic Sunday !!

No more big snow storms...right??????

[Joy]

sending you wishes for a good week

Good news Pam on the $200 and the 1/2 payments....I don't understand the gold coin, but if it made you happy then Good news on that, too.

It is funny how little things add up, isn't it? Little stresses and tiny things going wrong--they build up and derail us sometimes. Not the huge things....but just a collection of little things can become just like that story of the straw that broke the camel's back. Too many little stresses can undo our best intentions and plans.

But, also, the little good things add up, too. They make the day seem brighter, more things seem 'doable' and the future isn't as scary.

I pray this week will have lots of good little things in store for you and your family. That you'll continue to see little blessings left and right...that you'll be able to get yourself back on program and feel strongly committed to following through no matter what happens.

You'll be in my thoughts.
