Thanks Janet! I really appreciate your friendship and support. I will turn 39 tomorrow. So, I'm sure I'm not the baby of the loop. But who knows.

Our program we did last night was on the checkbook system and we had to find a buddy to help us stay focused. So, I chose our leader since she is our newest KOPS. She was really happy that I picked her. Of course my mom was upset that I didn't pick her..but our weight recorder told her to stop trying to sabotage my weight loss, with big helpings of ice cream. So she was a little upset about that.

Talk to you soon...and SEE YOU AT SRD!!!!

I'm so excited...paid my stuff last night. The chapter used to pay registration, hotel room and shirt..but didn't have the money this year. And luckily I just got my income tax and that was the first thing to come out.

LUV YA

Well, you're not actually the 'baby' of the

loop, that would be , but I'm pretty sure that you are the 'baby

girl'. LOL.

I'm glad that you didn't let your mom's feelings factor into your

choosing a 'buddy' for the week. My feeling is that our moms had every

opportunity to be supportive in our growing-up-years. If they want to

be our 'buddies' when it comes to wt loss support now, well... they

need to stop sabotaging our wt loss efforts. I've stopped taking my

mom on shopping trips because the woman can't just eat a sandwich from

Subway for lunch... every time we go shopping, lunch has to be a big

event.... Chili's, Red Lobster, Chinese buffets, etc.

Glad to hear that you're all paid up and ready to go to SRD. We're

gonna have soooo much fun!

Gosh, you're on the ball with your taxes already this year. I usually

do our's, or take it to H & R Block, but when I asked the lady some

questions regarding 's tuition and something about a municipal

bond, which we have to account for this year, she didn't even know what

a municipal bond was... or how to handle 's college

expenses/write-offs, sooooo I'm not real confident about going back

there. I'm planning to go to my parent's CPA this year, but right now,

I'm dealing with it like I do all things that worry me... I'm putting

it off until later. :-(

Have a great day-before-your-birthday.

love ya,
