Wow, that just plain, excuse the wording "sucks" (my mother hates that word, thus the apology before I posted it).
Thank the heavens you knew what was going on and in the end didn't end up with a big fee too. You go girl, calling them and straightening it out! Proud friend moment.
Holy, Moly water, you are talking to a girl that understands, came down last May to my water tank fully leaking, half the basement and it smelled like a sauna. We are two of a kind, turn off water, find source, be the little boy with the finger in the dam and keep pushing till we find a fix.
I can see you, woman! speeding through your thoughts, moving into action, good job on not kicking your door on the way back in the house. I might have done that out of pure frustration!!!!
The cookies isle and good self talk. OH MY GOOD HEAVENS! YOU ARE AMAZING!!!



YOU have just proven to all of us that IT can be done, ONE can deal with everything life can throw at us, like the universe saying are you serious this time? Really? I am going to throw this all at you at once and if you make it through you will finally realize YOU are able to do it!

So proud of you Susan....truly very proud of you. Thank you for sharing and proving to us all that is can be done.

Scotia it makes me smile when I read your posts!

smullen that was great thinking on the water situation. I can feel the frustration of the bank situation. Amazing you didn't cave and I didn't either.

When I was posting my frustration I saw my weightloss and I thought I'm not taking those pounds back..

Gem I'm glad you're back. The Flylady says "you're not behind, jump in where we are." I started losing again when I raised my carbs. I'm more of a 40 carb person, then I can eat fruits and veges.

Hello all,

First- I put my name where I think it should go, and changed the rank, I hope this is the correct way to do things. I had some trepidation changing people's numbers- please tell me if I've committed some grave error

Now I want to say everyone is so awesome for sticking with their plans while getting through all the rough patches- that's so inspiring to me!

Thanks for the support and inspiration, I know we're just going to become healthier and happier as we keep it up

horse

(and yes, I looove horses!)

Horse
You did great with the numbers.

I had a roommate with 2 horses and a darling pony she had to separate and feed diet hay. The pony would cry in the afternoons so I would bring it a treat. One day my roommate thinking out loud "all the carrots are gone and the pony hasn't lost any weight." I kept waiting for her to look at me but she knew I was scared to death of horses (but not ponies).

Horse you are a pro!
Many have tried and failed, me for example if I don't have my glasses on and a coffee in me.
Once you get to know people you can say saucy stuff when you pass them, like I do to Susan. Yes I am laughing.
Or you can start now, if you want, we like a good laugh too.

WTG! Smullen. You didn't cave and you took of the problem. I, on the other hand, do not even know where our water shut off is! Maybe I better check that out!

Good job horse.
