I still wonder where Trapper came up with the name Penton Buttons?? I think he was trying to say an actual name and thats just what it sounded like....

Burped or farted???? Is that supposed to make them appear? Well, I got my laugh on for the day. Been out mowing for the past 3 (yes 3) hours! Takes me that long and on a tractor! My back is killing me...all these dang ground hog holes and tunnels...bumpety-bump! Good thing I had on my sturdy bra...hehehehehehe

I swear we have a ghost, too...I always hear the hall floor creak when no one is there and we have a fairly new house????

Hello everyone! Wow...what a day! The kids are getting ready for PACT testing...what a nightmare that is gonna be! I will have to proctor someone's test for sure!

I have been horrible...I haven't eaten for a week then last night....WOW at ten I went to McD's and had a cheeseburger no pickle no ketchup...cuz that has carbs...never mind the freakin bun and McFlurry I had to go with it! Good grief!!!! What was I thinking????? lordie...at least I don't eat much at all during the week...I just cant bring myself to do it! The thought of food makes me ill! I just want to sleep...or anything else to keep me busy right now....

I wanted to put this out there for you guys....I don't have a lot of it left...BUT I am going to offer any...YES I SAID ANY of the Mary Kay SIGNATURE COLORS (not the new mineral colors....just the signature colors) at 30% off for the next week! I have a limited supply of stuff....but I do have some of the most popular colors still available! They have been flying outta here like crazy for Mother's Day....and I wanted to give you guys a great discount! There are eye colors and cheek colors available. Again, remember that I have free shipping and you MUST be happy or I AINT HAPPY!!!!!!

There is also one other thing I just found out about....the lipstick APPLEBERRY is on promo this month!!!! The company is taking 100% of the proceeds and applying that to the Mary kay Ash Foundation...this is the charitable foundation that helps promote research for those cancers affecting women and also for domestic abuse help! This is such a great cause! I am offering these at $10 instead of the usual $13 to help the cause. If you go to my website....listed below and look at the color APPLEBERRY it is a beautiful color and truly will look good on ALMOST (if not everyone!) everyone! I love it!

Hello all. Newbie here. I figured this would be a good place for support in the low carb lifestyle. Little about me. My name is Jimmy. I live in Jacksonville Fl. I am an architect and for fun I kite surf and write. I am new to the forum support thing so please bear with me as I learn.

[jenjenjen]

oooooo gohsts......we have many odd stories in our family. The night my grandfather died, I was 30 at the time, I awoke in the middle of the night and sat up in my bed and there was an odd light coming from the hall. It was a kind of warmish amber fuzzy glow. I looked and swore I saw grandpa, I know this sounds nuts and thats why I said I was 30 at the time, its not just a childhood "vision" I do believe he was coming to say goodbye.
The other thing is my great grandma was a chain smoker. One night she fell asleep on the couch and awoke and saw her mother (who had been dead for years) beckoning her to the kitchen. My grandma got up and followed her and when she walked into the kitchen the trash can was on fire. Apparently, one of her cigs had not gone out. After she put the fire out she turned around and her mother was gone.
Plus, odd thing sof televisions coming on for no reason, rings falling to the floor.
I totally believe in this.

Good morning to all! Have a fabulous day!!! IT'S THE WEEKEND!!!! WOOHOO!!!

[mom276]

Good morning IT"S FRIDAY!!!!! Okay Tommie- didn't think about the ghost thing at all last night until about 2:00 in the morning. Something fell in the bathtub (think it was one of the kids toys) but it woke me up. So, got up and checked, of course I couldn't tell b/c there were already toys in there. So checked around the house like a little sissy!! Said a quick prayer and went back to sleep and proceeded to have dreams that people were trying to kill me and the kids I've got a few ghost stories, but they're all so lengthy to get into. Did you guys- sleep okay last night?

Well I got on the scales and I am up 2 pounds, but I cheated so I shouldn't complain!

Mary, carrot cake sounds yummy!!

Theresa wish I had the extra money right now to buy something, but I'll keep ya in mind when I have the extra bucks!

I'll check in w/ya all a little later.

[kathys52]

OK...confession time...I found the stash of Easter candy I had hid from myself way back when...I feel like CRAP! Been feuding with DH...Geez he drives me crazy somethimes! Why did I decide to get married again?????

[InItToLose]

Good morning all. Took today off work to head out to the beach. Hopefully soon I will be proud to go shirtless.

Welcome Jimmy!!! Nice to have you on our Board!!! I envy you living near the BEACH!!! Dang!! O well...I could't wear a bikini anyways!!!!

Well my middle daughter went ahead and stayed the night at home last night!! NO GhOST!!! I cleaned on her room. Decided that if I helped her get her room back in shape that maybe she wouldn't be scared to go in there!! I stood on my head in her closet for about 2 hours!! She had clothes in there that I don't ever remember buying!! And sizes she hasn't worn in years!! But my older daughters cheerleading squad it having a yard sale tomorrow to raise funds and I thought now was a good time to tackle that dang closet of hers!!! Boy....I got tons of stuff!! I need to do the boys's stuff too, but I don't think there will be room to haul all the stuff I got!!

Well its FRIDAY!!! WAHOO!!! It seems like its taken me all week to get here!!! I'm sooo tired!! I may not be much help tomorrow!! Plus theres a bunch of good yard sales going on tomorrow that I would really like to go to myself!! I may live Ty to run the sale and me head out to my own!!

Well girlies....I got a truck here....I guess I best go!! Only two of us running this show today and we get a transport truck in!! FIGURES!!

[micki]

Interesting morning for me. Nick (DBF of 15 years) woke up and said to me, "You're still here? I thought you were moving out." I knew he was having some sort of dream, but it was really strange.
Then I took 3 dogs to the vet for booster shots. One has an ear infection and 2 have eye infections. Today is also give the cats their revolution day. It's quite a task when you have 12 cats and 3 strays. So far, I have 2 done, and 13 to go. They will all be mad at me by the end of the day.
I am trying to hire a guy to train my dogs. He keeps canceling on me. If you were a dog trainer and you found a client with 7 dogs, wouldn't you be a little nicer? It takes him forever to return a phone call, and he won't commit to an appointment time. I've been trying to get with him for 8 days.

[farley109]

Micki...WOW!! And I thought I had too many pets!! My kids bring home every stray ANYTHING that they find!! I'm a animal lover too, so its not good!! We currently have 3 dogs and 2 cats!! But I've had as many as 24 dogs before....Well actually, I raised Pomeranians for several years and had a kennel!! But they weren't kept caged, they were my babies!! Just got to be too much work!!

[farley109]

O and Micki....If my DH woke up and said that, I would have said " no...it was you....let me help you pack!"

Good one! I asked if it was a good dream or a nightmare, he said it was a nightmare because I left all the dogs with him! He knows I would too!

[farley109]

In my case, I would keep the dogs and send him the kids!!!

[micki]

We don't have any kids together, so the only way I could punish him would be to leave all 19 animals.

When I was young, I would always say I wasn't going to have any kids, just animals! Well, I ended up with 4 kids and now have 3 dogs and a cat. The animals are much easier to raise! Funny this subject should come up cause that's what DH and I are fighting about. There is this puppy I want and he says we have too many already... Well...I already put down a deposit, so there!

Oh trust me, if we had kids, I would leave the kids too! Especially if he left me for a young girl. It would definately put a crimp in his dating! lol I think more moms should do that! See ya!! lol

[kathys52]

OK...WTH...I binged on candy last night and was down .5 pound this morning! I am going to try to eat better today, but man it is hard when you cheat and still lose???? Anywho...woke up with a zit, so guess that is my punishment.

[melehundele]

Morning (still...for a few minutes) everyone! Hello to Jimmy, Micki, all the other people I haven't talked to yet.

So WTH? I seerm to have a sleeping sickness since I got back. Why am I SO tired? And I have been eating like a pony since getting home, and the dang scale is moving the wrong way! I am not gonna change my sig line or stats though, just gotta get in gear. I HAVE been eating only LC stuff, but my fitday was 37 carbs yesterday which means I ate a LOT of LC stuff!!!!! I ate more than half of a double layer jello pie (the one with the raspberry and orange layers...mmmm) yesterday which is about a pound of cream cheese in itself. Le Oink.

Makin bacon and eggs now

It's FRIDAY! Doesn't really matter here, I do the same thing every day, but I will celebrate with all y'all!

19 animals! Wow! I would say you were nuts but right now we have 14 equine and 4 canine. Hey, STILL less than 19!

Kathy! Easter candy! Did I read that right? You know, I have two bags of Lindt Easter Truffles sitting in my desk not four feet from where I am sitting and I have not eaten them! It's true! On about Day 6 of induction (the first induction, haha), back at the beginning of April, I had my one illegal binge and ate a WHOLE BAG (I think that is 15 or 18 of the little buggers). OH MY GOD, was I sick...my newly ketosized bod could not handle that AT ALL. Since then, no truffle snitching Might work for you. People say that when their folks caught them smoking they made them smoke the whole pack and get sick. Me, that would have hooked me sooner and faster....but maybe it worked on the truffles.

Ghosts still in the chat here. Neat, Jen. Like a lot of people, I have stories like that too. Especially with my Dad, who died over 10 years ago. Weird stuff happened at the time and since I have felt him around and smelled his cologne. I think that there is a lot more going on around us that we don't know or understandbecause of our limited perceptions. A client of ours turned out to be an animal communicator. No kidding. I didn't believe in that stuff until she "read" a few animals I knew and found out things that I didn't know but could then confirm. Not quite the same thing, but there has got to be a lot to communicating with the energy that makes up all of the living creatures.

Whew, that's heavy. :P

OK, better go do some stuff. Happy end of week to everyone! Still missing Diana...where in the world?

[onefitgal]

4.5 miles on treadmill today...

Hope everyone has a fun filled Friday!!!
