Solution for ya - move to ND. We are in desperate need of workers. We are in the middle of a big oil boom in our area so there is good paying jobs if you want that. If that isn't your thing the businesses are all crying for workers because the towns are growing (quickly) and some of the workers are leaving for the oil industry. Plus, we have great hunting and fishing for the weekends!

Go to the baitshop. Ask him about the fishing. He doesn't know a thing. It's more of a run-down mini-mart in a bad part of town with half-empty shelves, but they do sell bait. I've never been in a baitshop before where they dont give you advice or know what's up and where. Strange. In my home town, they could tell you what rock to stand on and which way to cast...

I figure I'll get my minnow bucket and get some tonight as they don't open until 8am.

Then I get this feeling of guilt. I'm out of a job. I should be looking for a job instead of fishing. Fishing is a reward for a week's work. Desn't matter if there isn't any job openings out there, I'm not working. I'm a bum.

What a Catch-22. When I was working, I worked so much there wasn't much time to fish. Now that I've got all this time on my hands, I don't feel I've earned the right to enjoy it.

Can you say 'depression', boys and girls? Got any xanax?

I'm sorry, Fatcat

[Lisa Rae]

Hey there Kids!

I talked to Melly..and told her I was back to low-carb ( with my tail between my legs..a position FC knows well ) She said I should get my bootie in here and say "Hey" as there were many people I know and love here. The girls knows me well...so instead of naming my favorites ( and you know who you are!) I'll just say a big

Shesssssss Backkkkkkk!

I'd love all the suport I can get. I'm still dealing with some health issues..but am really ready to re-commit myself to low-carb once again. I started Induction today..and am both terrified and excited to be back.

[hippiegirl]

Welcome Back!

[luckiangel]

back Lisa!!!!!

FC - i wish i could fish.

Melly - i'm sorry about your friend...will say a or two

i've had a couple really bad eating days. this IE thing worked pretty well in the beginning but now i am not so sure.....i think i am headin' back to LC. The tapping part works really well so i think i will continue doing that but for whatever reason i am just experiencing too much anxiety about eating period. I feel the freedom that IE brings but then I am missing my LC foods. I feel full ALL the time. I can't not eat. Just feelin' rather LARGE. I tried to up my water yesterday and i almost got sick at 48 oz. Well....i am going to bed. it WILL be a good day tomorrow.

[CosmicMuffin]

Ok....I am sick. I keep thinking this is allergies but today I don't think it is because my whole body hurts and I have a temp. I just feel plain puke.

HUGS to FC......I love you.

Shelly...thought about you today....had to do with guns.

Melly....how you doing babe

Lucki.....I just got the giggles and I can't breath so it isn't good.

Lisa glad to have you back

Red...how is the house going?

Caro.....how you doing sweetie?

Hippi.....Lonely with out you

Ohhh and Quiz....do you ever do Camden?

Wendy you remind me of someone famous in the picture.....hummmm

Loner....are you in the Kitchen plotting ways to poison people you don't love?

Cheri....are you Lurking?

Did I leave anyone out?? I hope not because if I did I am sorry but I need to go blow my nose. Ohh and someone send hugs to Mimi.

[luckiangel]

Thanks kim! i managed to fall asleep and then one of my staff called at 6.....time to get up!!! i don't know what happened but it wasn't fun. i know if i talk to my doctor he's gonna get hyper on me...but i guess he should know that the medicine didn't work..... sometimes i wish i could just unzip my skin and step out of it.

[ShellyW]

Again hope you feel better lucki... you can always again come here and stay up with rupert... he needs a week of NO tail chewing... This morning he had the bandade off but i caught him... with ears flat and little stub laying flat.. he said "I sorry mom, I just can't help myself"

[luckiangel]

maybe tapping would work with him too???? thanks for the well wishes.....i feel fine but for whatever reason my body seems to be falling apart. doc is gonna say it's the apnea...........i dunno what happened to my authorization the other day for the cpap study. if we wait any longer i won't need it where i'm goin'.

[Melly]

Lisa
Glad you made it girl. You do not have to have your tail between your legs.....you are human afterall and doodoo hapens....life happens and that is just the way it it. You are back where you have friends and support and people who need you as much as you need them

Cat you amaze me sometimes....you really are human aren't you? Enojy the fishing while you can because when you do find a job you will not have alot of time off. Be patient on the job situation, one will come when you least expect it. Let's face it....our economy sucks right now and there are many many feeling the effects of it

Wendy did you see that I tried to call you the other night?

I went to see Julie yesterday....twice actually. The first time was awful, I thought I was in the wrong room and when I left I realized that I had been in the right room but just didn't recognize her. I didn't stay long because I could not stop crying and I did not want to do that to her or her family that was there. I went back later in the evening when one of her daughters was there and stayed for a few minutes and her mind was much clearer. The first time she wasn't making sense and all you can do is just agree with her The second time was much better but from what I understand those times will be fewer and fewer

OK I am at work and need to get busy.....I will check back later

[luckiangel]

Melly - angel on your shoulder sis.....

[Melly]

I you Lucki

[Caro]

hey peeps! im doing good..eating good.. weights not coming off but im not giving up because i do feel better.. im stressed out to the max but i go see a lawyer friday at 10AM pray for me please.. i need strenght guidance and wisdom.. and most of all i need for my kids to have some peace!!!

**WAVING TO EVERYONE*(( i miss you ))

When I was out of work and collecting unemployment I went everywhere to find a job.. you might have to take something that isn't in your field and then just keep looking until something opens up in what you are wanting to do. I am sure there is something out there that you could do while you are waiting.

Enjoy your fishing trip.

[cheri]

Melly... I am so sorry to hear about your friend Julie. It has to be rough for everyone involved. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.

cheri

[Melly]

Thanks Cheri BTW....weren't you supposed to be in here more often?

[cheri]

Yeah... I know. I have always been a self starter but am having issues. I have lost 5 pounds though.. After I lose 20 more... maybe 25 more (5 extra for good measure and to make sure the 25 sticks) then I will make an appointment with my surgeon for a consult. My goal is to hopefully have my surgery this summer so I won't have to worry about taking the boys anywhere while I am recovering.. I am going to have a lot done so it will be a full 6 weeks recovery.. Just need to get the rest off to get the ball rolling.

cheri

[cheri]

Wendy... btw.. when ever I look at your avatar, I am the one smiling. I just love it. You so purty.

Actually... I am loving everyones avatars! This group has a bunch of really beautiful women... Everyone looks great!

[CosmicMuffin]

You are good for my ego....Cheri...so please keep coming back.

[CosmicMuffin]

I am chatting.....

9 WORDS WOMEN USE


(1) Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

(2) Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

(3) Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.

(4) Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!

(5) Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to # 3 for the meaning of nothing.)

(6) That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you wil l pay for your mistake.

(7) Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or Faint. Just say you're welcome. (I want to add in a clause here - This is true, unless she says 'Thanks a lot' - that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say 'you're welcome' ... that will bring on a 'whatever').

(8) Whatever: Is a women's way of saying * YOU!


(9) Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is someth ing that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking 'What's wrong?' For the woman's response refer to # 3.

* Send this to the men you know, to warn them about arguments they can avoid if they remember the terminology.
