It was either chat with you wonderful ladies or play around with my blog. I promise to do the show and tell soon! I don't know if you really want to hear the nitty-gritty details. I mean, I DID come home almost a month early! Ha-Ha!
Personals
TracI:*
I am so sorry to hear about Sandy! HUGS!!!!!!!! I will have to go back and read. I certainly don't want you to have to relive her passing. I can't even begin to imagine how heartbreaking this is for you! HUGS again!!!!!! It was probably a good thing we didn't get the chance to talk when I called. We'd both be bawling by the time my minutes ran out. Planting a tree sounds like a beautiful memorial for Sandy! She was very blessed to have you as her Momma!!!! If you'd like I can come over the next time it storms and have you pamper me.;-) My legs could use a nice rub!
:+
TracY:*
I'm so glad to be back home too!!! I seriously had a panic attack before I left. I asked Phil, "I love my life! Why am I leaving it for two months?" I was going through some serious cyber chatting and DDCoffee withdrawal symptoms the first week. When you see my pictures, you'll understand why I was throughly depressed about not working out, chatting, and basically losing my freedom. Enough about that... I'm so excited about the get together!!!!! I might just take you up on your offer. Is Carol going to ride down with you too? She doesn't live far from me.
Sandra:*
You lucky duck! Wireless!!!! I can see why you need motivation for getting out of bed.}( Although, online CPR certification will keep you there for a little while longer.;-) Phil is sooo happy to have his wife back home. When I made the decision to come back home, he almost booked me for the next flight out of Bangkok. Thankfully, he remembered that Thailand is 12 hours ahead of Philadelphia. Had he gone through with his original flight change, I wouldn't have been able to make it to the airport in time!
TeddyGirl:*
How's TeddyBoy doing? Did he cook the Christmas meal? I don't want to hear what he cooked. Let's just say, I saw my dinner alive the morning before purchasing it!
Are you still doing the X? Are you subbing? Is Sandra letting you?
:7
Lea:*
Happy Belated Birthday to your son!!!! Today is Quinton's birthday! He was my New Year's Baby. That was 16 years ago! He's growing up into such a handsome, responsible, young man. My, they grow up so fast. Why, just look! Your New Year Eve Baby is already in a big boy bed! Give him a good night kiss for me tonight!
Now, that you are all getting over the stomach flu, are you going to continue or pick up with the X? Love your decked out Meez sitting among the toys!!!!
Carol:*
I can't believe you are writing a blog on your X experience! I'll have to read it all once my taste buds settle back to normal and accept DDCoffee. We have to get together soon for a Heated Power Yoga class. Let my muscles build back up a little or I'll be in child's pose for the hour and a half class!!!:7 What's up with your hip? Were you on the temporary IL? Are you going to the Xer Get Together at Debras? Maybe we can carpool. Throwing out the junk food? Blasphemy!!! Throw it my way!!!!!!!!!! Seriously! There isn't REAL chocolate in Thailand. They have fake chocolate made out of locally grown cocoa beans and vegetable oil instead of dairy products. Maybe, that's a good thing considering their cows are soooo skinny!!!!!!!!!! I never saw a skinny cow before!!!! Anyhow, the local chocolate was NASTY! Almost made me cry a couple of times!
Debra:*
Thank you so much for the report!!!! I got home Saturday night. My sleep cycle is out of whack. Sunday was spent in bed and on the road to pick up the twins at MIL's house. I swear they grew like weeds while I was gone! OMW!!! That is sooo funny!!! The L bomb! I remember getting the L bomb from Phil when we dated. I told the guys in my engineering class about it. They were either so naive or just being typical males. They thought the "L" meant lust.:7 Remember, Phil was supposed to be my transitional boyfriend. I'll check out your pictures after I finish posting. I got your Christmas card. Julia is ADORABLE!!!! Tayler thinks she's beautiful!!! Oh! XDH is in the country. How did he take to CB? Did he meet him? Is he staying at a hotel? How was your New Year's Eve celebration?}( I wouldn't be surprised if I don't hear from you till late today.}( :+ Um, Meeeee scare Kim away? Whatever makes you think I would or could do that?
:+ (Note to self: do a word count check before I post.)
Nicole :*
Your gingerbread house is Deliciously Divine!!!! How long did it take you to make?!? I'm so happy to see you are still doing the X. Although, I wish I could have gone through another round with you! Maybe, Kim will be my workout buddy this round!!! Speed reading and see some reference to a different man w/o se*. All I can say is that I haven't breathed a word to Phil about leaving him for a weekend in April! He'd probably purchase a pair of handcuffs and use them in a not so kinky way! :7 :7 Oh, I just realized Debra might be printing up embarrassing posts to read at the get together. sigh
Kim:*
Welcome!!!!! Is today Day 1 of the X for you? I'll be joining you all for my second round of the X in a week or so. I'm not a planner. But, I do my best and forget the rest.;-) I can't wait to get to know you better. Don't worry about long winded posts, especially mine. I'm just trying to catch up while I was held captive by my mother, the Crazy Asian.
Jeanette:*
I missed you guys terribly!!! I thought about you all often!!!!!!! You would love Thailand! I took a picture there especially thinking of you and AmyX! What is going on with your grandmother and sister? I hope it isn't anything major! My grandfather is still kickin it at 90 years old. His skin is gorgeous for a man his age. Heck, all the elders of my family village look like they found some fountain of youth!!! Must be the lack of modern conveniences!:7 I think the loss of cellulite had to do a little with the diet and a lot with the constant heat and sweating. It's so very hot and dry right now. I could feel thick beads of sweat in places I didn't know could sweat!!!! Powder is a girl's best friend in Thailand! Oh, and sunscreen too!!!
Amy, Amy-X, Cheryl:* :* :*
Where are you all at?????? I thought about my RT ladies!!!! I hope you all are doing great and are having a wonderful New Year's Day!!!!
I see that alot of you ladies have been battling sickness. I'd rather battle the flu over the CA any day of the year!:7
Good News!!!!! I can still do at least 3 pull-ups in a row!
I'm not sure how many I can do maximum. I tried out the pull up bar the moment I walked into my bedroom after landing.
Okay. Gotta eat some breakfast before this doctored up coffee chews up a hole in my stomach.
Ballistic Hugs to ALL!!!!
Wendy
