The MakeMeThinner Support Forum

Good morning, MakeMeThinner Forum Friends ~

Just a little update here on Miss Martha. She is on the run!

Martha is driving the highways and byways of Mississippi – her hiney has barely touched her desk chair because her Mommma has had several medical procedures lately – had her pacemaker battery changed, nerves in her back operated on and the list goes on – two aneurisms that need attention (aortic and renal) and she is taking her sister-in-law to and from work each day and delivering restless kids hither and yon.

Keep her in your prayers – the daycares, pharmacies and doctor’s offices were blown away when Katrina breezed through and Martha must wait in lines and drive further away from home now for the help she needs for her family. Doug is working out of town until next week… This Girl needs a vacation from life!

Hugs to Martha!

Thanks for the update! I will keep Martha and Doug in my prayers and thoughts.

Oh MY Gosh!!!! Our poor Martha does need a vacation. I emailed her the other day and didn't get a response like I usually do, and was beginning to worry. Thanks for the update Nancy.

Martha, you will be in my prayers. I wish I was closer so I could be some help. Take care as you are in my thoughts and prayers.

I dunno.

She said she's just busy right now and will be back online when things calm down.

It is interesting how life gets in the way of our MakeMeThinner Forum time!

While many of us would love to be here 24/7, there are times we must vacate our computer desk chair and attend to them. I don't have that “Samantha Nose Wiggle” thingy going on that gets the yard work, housework, commuting and laundry done instantly! I am always amazed at how many people can read and write on the Forum during their office work hours. When I was working at the college there was NO way I could be online with anything other than office-related business. Period. Point. Dot. I'dda been out the door in a moment.

I would love to always be in my Leopard Woman mode - you know, walking around in my leather pants, spandex turtle neck and fake leopard fur vest, my Hawaiian heirloom bangle bracelet with 'Kuuipo' ("Sweetheart") engraved in black enamel on the band and freshly painted nails, “The Pink” extended with my dangly gold pinkie ring while sippin' on a Chai Latte but the truth of the matter is...I have to wash our underdoodies and scrub the toiletto, too...the mundane madness of life gets in the way of our MakeMeThinniness!

Sometimes people just need space, it's not that we/they want to be absent but it becomes necessary at times. However, needing space is never a license to TAKE up MORE space or to s-p-e-a-d out! You all know how easy it is to succumb to random acts of eatage when we feel the pressures of life squeezing in on us!

Encourage one another all the more and please, dear dear MakeMeThinner Friends keep on doing what you do for one another - you are the best!

Nancy - any word from Martha Lately ??? Mytime

[Nancy]

Nope, Little Darlin' - not a word or a peep! I have been so busy myself that I hardly know if I'm coming or going! I will try to give her a call in a few days when I get an opportunity. We are moving, having company, preparing our cottage to sell, etc.

Thank you all for taking good care of one another!
