    Oh thank you thank you!! I will and we will!

    I wish I could box up everything foodwise in my house and send it to someone. The cookies I keep for my DH seem to be calling my name especially after dinner and in the middle of the night. I've been really watching the serving sizes of things I eat and that is an eye opener. The hard part is when I'm tired or there is an social activity that includes refreshements like graduation party tonight for our grandkids. Just have to take it ODAAT and keep plugging away. Does anyone have a suggestion for a good pedometer I can buy?

    This is what the bday card that Cathie gave me said:

    I'm in love with you!
    There I was -
    one minute gettting to know you,
    enjoying you, and wondering
    where it would all lead...
    and the next, thinking about you all the time,
    knowing that I never, ever
    wanted to be without you!
    I guess that's the way life is.
    Your going along
    doing your everyday things,
    and out of the blue,
    life surprises you
    with something amazing -
    something you had no idea
    how much you wanted.
    That's what you are to me, you know,
    an amazing gift...
    Falling in love you
    was something I hadn't expected,
    but being in love with you
    is something I couldn't stop,
    even if I tried.
    What I am trying to say is -
    you're "it" for me,
    now and forever.

    ---Linda Lee Elrod

    Isn't that the sweetest most loving card? Man I so love her.

    Okay...now back to your regularly scheduled topics. LOL

    I want to thank everyone for the beautiful floral fat quarters I received. I love all the colors. I have decided to use the fat quarters to make a quilt for myself. I haven't decided what pattern I will use yet. Thank you all again!!!! Big hugs, Sandy

    Missy, I'm so proud of your weight loss. I recently went through my closet and found some clothes that fit me again, now that I have lost 24 lbs. It is a wonderful feeling. I am so happy for you, in having that same feeling when you put on that dress. woooohooo. You go girl!!! Keep up the good work and you will be at your designated weight before you know it. Hugs, Sandy

    Oh Sandy I sure am hoping so! This morning when I worked out at the gym I was able to walk another 1/4 mile. I probably already told yall that but man alive it made me so happy. It has been more than a decade since I have been able to do that. So exciting!
