i have to apologise to anyone i haven't said hi to or commented on. i read beachbound's comment and it hit home. as one of the really talkative people on this thread i try to be a 'meeter/greeter' and include everyone and i am well aware, to my chagrin, that i sometimes don't read back far enough, or i get caught up in getting my idea out there that i forge ahead and leave others feeling unnoticed. beachbound--thanks for saying something! none of us mean to exclude anybody! we all need all the support we can get.
purplemem-- i like your idea very much! believe it or not, sometimes even i want to be quiet once in awhile! for real!

I'm good with the new rules, I don't think I could do it just on my own, I'd need some gentle nudging and maybe the occasional push lol

So, i won't have a whole lot of control over what is being served, but i will have control over what goes in my mouth... BTW, I am new to this group.

Quick thought for today~ No matter where you are in your journey, there is always someone who wishes that they were already where you are now. Unless of course you are that chick from Dr Oz! ;-)
