Thanks for the info.

and..

I will be praying that you get a message form god onyou rcareer Candy, it sounds like you may be at a crossroads. So glad to hear that you get your DH back! that will be so wonderful for your family. I will be praying that you get an answer as to what to do about Miss Hannah as well.

Edwards20 · 05-15-2007, 05:57 PM

Ya'll were having a party in here WITHOUT me ???

Tonia, they tasted very eggy to me right out of the oven. But not at all the next day after staying in the fridge all night. Then the 2nd and 3rd times they were even better.

Monet, that's a great deal on the candle. Watching AI tonight I assume ?

Beth, I was bad and didn't see ANYONE today. But, I have to pickup a check tomorrow afternoon in Cedartown, so I plan to make some stops. I have put the flax in my yogurt before but never in my p'nut butter/cinnamon/yogurt mixture. I must try that.

Sue, I did cry A BUNCH.

Lisa and Livy, thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers.

Krysta, you are such a doll.

Dixie, I am praying it goes back down quick. Randy works in the warehouse of a local Budweiser distributor. And, I plopped mayo and LC ketchup and mustard all over that RR w/my burger.

Sally, thanks so much for your prayers. I am not actively pursuing another career. I guess I just wish God would plop one in my lap.

Lisa, are you making some of the RR's.

Going to try to post a pic or two from the graduation this morning.

Twink, you should really read the poem on the cake in the pic I will post. If you can get a cake for the graduation this is a great idea.

Edwards20 · 05-15-2007, 06:07 PM

Having trouble getting to the photo website, I'll try again later.

Someone tell me what song Simon picked for Jordin to sing ? I miss it.

You gotta be kidding ?? That song so annoys me

. Glad I missed it. I am taking she did well.

iabowhunter · 05-15-2007, 07:01 PM

Honestly, I have no idea what she sang. I couldn't resisit messing with you. That song is still annoying to me, but it was the first thing that came to me mind when I read your post.

Think Monet will get a kick out of that?

How sweet is that cake.. and I don't mean tastin..lol..

my baby didn't have a graduation from anything..

but in 2 years Korbey will have a real one sniff sniff..

Edwards20 · 05-15-2007, 08:00 PM

I cried so hard Monet. My baby is growing up.

I will try and post the other pics tomorrow night. The site is messed up for me.

Sadler_Girl · 05-15-2007, 08:13 PM

its is too cute

Edwards20 · 05-15-2007, 08:16 PM

Well, I gotta get my coffee and clothes ready for morning and see if I can sleep tonight.

Randy told them he would come back to 1st shift. They cannot give him a definitive starting time because they are hiring and training a replacement for him, as well as a couple on another shift. I hope it will be soon.

Sadler_Girl · 05-15-2007, 08:24 PM

woohoo first sift you will see him more often.
sweet dreams!

Low Carb Mommy · 05-15-2007, 08:49 PM

Yea! Randy is on first shift!

Don't worry about Hannah. God always takes care of His children and He will make a way for you. Does this mean that it will be easier to start going to church?

Hope so.

Jordan's first song was the best one of the evening I thought. I am sorry I can't remember the name of it. She has to win!

I don't even want to think of #3 or #4 child graduating from K yet! I am putting my fingers in my ear and saying NaNaNaNaNaNa!

Edwards20 · 05-16-2007, 05:26 AM

Randy told them he would accept the offer to move back to 1st shift. However, it could be weeks or months before the transition. They have a few new people still in training, and they have to hire his replacement.

Beth, you might not choose to view these so I just created a link.

Here are a few more pics from the little graduation ceremony: ALBUM .

Weight was 227 this morning ...

.... So that completes the reversal of the 5lb woosh.

.... but if this holds til morning, it's still a lb down from last week's weigh-in.

Hannah is supposed to have water party today ... forecast is calling for rain.
We certainly need the rain, so I won't complain. After I pick her up and bring her home this afternoon I will head to Cedartown to pick up a check and call on a few new customers.

BeepBeep · 05-16-2007, 06:19 AM

Candy Girl,

Good luck with Hannah's party! You're doing awesome. Keep your head in the right place and things will magically woosh

Jen

Low Carb Mommy · 05-16-2007, 06:25 AM

Loved the pictures! Thanks for sharing them. Did you get one of you and Hannah?

Don't worry about the weight. I'm sure it is water. I was looking at your fitday and you are eating great. It might be the ham that is making you retain. I noticed that you are eating more luncheon meat than before.

On another note, I read where Fawn had told someone in OWL that they needed to be careful on the peanut butter. She said that it is in the legume family and that she wouldn't add it back until Maintenance. She also said that it was a control issue and if you couldn't have just a small amount you should wait.(She loves peanut butter) I was ill yesterday because they didn't have the Carb Options at the store. I just got the Smart Balance pb because it hd the least amt. of carbs. I notice that you eat pb every day so I thought I would share this with you. It looks like you are able to keep it at sm. portions.

Go get some sales girl! Show off that bod! What is it that you sale anyway? Have a prosperous day! Can't wait until Idol tonight!!!

Tippy Toes · 05-16-2007, 06:46 AM

Good morning Candy and fan club! Just a quick wave and I am off to run errands. Candy, the scales just gave you a preview of what's coming next is all. I hate it too but this is an up and down journey...

twinkerbell · 05-16-2007, 08:52 AM

Candy,

The cake is SO sweet!!! Did you write it yourself or have a store make it? I may check into that...it made me *almost* cry!

Sadler_Girl · 05-16-2007, 09:04 AM

Good luck with the new customers. I hope the storms hold off until after the party.

pescacat · 05-16-2007, 10:56 AM

Hi Candy,
Great pics and what a neat poem on the cake!

I am so glad your hubby will eventually go back to first shift because I know how important that is for you and your family! I hope it happens soon!

As for where Hannah can go, I'll keep praying for a solution for you.

Congrats on the weight loss-anytime the scale goes down it is a victory! Celebrate!

Best wishes on things picking up at work!
**hugs**

Jen. I am honored you stopped by.

Beth, I didn't even get a pic of Hannah with either Randy or myself.

I have had a few packs of the lunchmeat lately, and that is not normal. I was worried about the p'nut butter initially, but I have been
