I am going to take a bath I will be back in a little bit. I got new Christmas bodywash. They were 7 in a pack, mostly food related. Red Velvet Cake, Vanilla Sugar, Sugar Plums, Candy Cane, Ginger Snap, Mint Chocolate. The only one not food is Winter Frost. maybe I should squirt it in the tub as bubble bath and eat the bubbles. I think I will use Ginger Snap. BRB

You are a sad sad example of how not to bathe. You work so freaking hard all day to stay on your diet and here you go trying to soak the pounds back on. *wagging finger*
Anyway...I have taken my magical handful of pretty pills so I will be checking out soon. So, night all and when Tru comes back tell her I initiated a coup and she is no longer in power. She has been ousted. 'Kay?

You deserve them, Bonnie, after losing 11 pounds last month. You'll need the energy to sew when your flannel arrives.
Tru, I like your recipe. Boxed dry soup mixes have so much sodium. I'll have to look for some potato flakes without wheat or MSG. Sometimes that's not an easy job.
My goal for this month is to hold under the --0 mark I acheived last month. If I can maintain my 5 pound weight loss in December, I can lose more in January.
You guys are entertaining if nothing else! I've just spent a good deal of time on a website where you couldn't post anything you wouldn't want a seven year old to read, so this is a little different.

Well it is a new day. I woke up refreshed and ready to get back to work.
Last night I cut 7 different homespun fabrics into 1" strips and rolled the fabric onto all different sized styrofoam balls. I have this HUGE bag of them now. They are just darling. That is what is going to be used on our tree and wreaths and around the house. We will be accenting with gold stars too. I was thinking of buying a grapevine garland to use too. It really is beginning to feel like Christmas with the decorations slowly going up. I have to sew the 9 denim stockings. They are going to be so incredibly cute. I bought some buttons in homespun colors and will be putting those on the stockings too.
I have to leave here in a few minutes to meet with my therapist (a new one cause MY therapist had the nerve to break her water and have her baby last week. UGH. Some people's children.). After I see the therapist I will probably take my mom to lunch at the Olive Garden. They have their unlimited soup salad and breadsticks for 6 bucks. Sounds really yummy to me!
My mom thinks the guys that are going to install our new windows will be here today. I do not know how I feel about that because it is so cold right now and God knows I do not need to see any more butt crack.
Okay so I told Tru last night that me and my army of one overturned her rule as boss here and that I was the boss. Well, I take it back. I uncoup you! You are the boss!
OOOH my. I am now getting sleepy. Dumb meds. I have to stay awake now. Too much to do.
I will smell you guys later.
