Working and trying to make a deadline, in between checking out the forums, of course! Just taking a much needed break at the moment. How about you?

XOXOXOXOXOXOX

Hi girls,

Just finished dishes, checking email, balancing check book * not a pretty site* since I haven't done it in about 3 months.

Hey Sky just finished taken care of my ebay purchases, I finally bought some art as we're hoping to buy our first home by X-mas and I'm getting ready to redo everything! Hope I win publishers clearing house! Anyway let me know what kinda buttons you have, hubby collects them.

Well I have a movie I've had for three days and over 20 programs recorded on TIVO so I think I'm gonna find me some chocolate and veg. Besides my ass hurts from sitting here and the pillow I use is officially a pancake.

You gals be good! NOT! Hasta manana!

Good Morning Gals!

Hope everyone had a good nights sleep!

Just thought I'd check in. Gonna hit the gym, go up to school (finally) and go get my tootisie and nails done. Gotta get beautiful for the kids. Besides I was officially declared a computer geek by hubby and son last night and my daughter was furious with me trying to call me all day. (She just wanted money anyway)

See ya later gators!

Me, I am going to a Fri night meeting. Kind of a wild and crazy Friday huh! Tomorrow night they are having an AA dance and speaker meeting. I am so nervous to go! I cannot believe it because social situations do not frighten me but I am really nervous. But it should be fun.

Good afternoon Sista's!

Hope everyone had a sober/clean Friday night! Wanted to come play with you but hubby took us to dinner and we had to wait 45 minutes for a table and 30 minuts for a meal so we were eating steak, veal, pasta etc at 9:30 at night which is a tabu for me. We all ended up bring home have our meals! But at least we have leftovers! Son is finishing his steak as we speak.

Gotta call from my sponser this morning insisting I come to her swim party.
Well good time to check out the new electric razor *LOL* now that the skin has grown back from the epil stop! I really don't wanna go as I am not used to social situations as of yet but I must progress right?

So you gals have a great day I'll be back early so I can come play with you guys otay?

*hugs and have a good day*

Hi all,

Had a nice afternoon with my sponser and group members today. They are an awesome group, their love is so genuine and it's a strange feeling.

Actually floated around in the pool, got some sun and just relaxed. I guess you would call that fun!

Anyone here from Lady? I hope she's okay, did something happen to upset her? Or is she just blue today? Her post was distressing and I'm really concerned for her. Let me know if you guys here from her.

xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox Moi!

I am so happy to hear you had a nice day. My man and I went to an auction and bought some "stuff". He had never been to an auction before and he liked it as much as I do. We went to cattle auctions alot with our grandfather when we were little. I think that is part of why i like it so much.

I am patiently waiting for lady to show up.......
