Big Looser!

i went shopping today for the first time in a few months.....
bought some size 18 pants and tops....yippee!!

I had to try sooooo hard not to buy a lot...i'm hoping to only buy again when i drop a size...hopefully by Christmas!!!!

i came home and went through my closets [you know how us ladies do it..] LOL donated alla those size 22/24 items

Found a few things i could definitely keep in the smaller sizes too!!
Found some 14/16 that i could get into..just not comfortable to wear.....

Yeah...i'm dancing around the house now...lol

20 lbs gone.....and more to go
Thank you Weight Watchers!

Does disagreeing with someone have to mean an argument?



I just went out with a very nice guy. Only problem is that he agreed with me on everything. A friend insists that that behavior is better than arguing over everything.

Can't I have a relationship where one can disagree and not argue about everything?

I guess I didn't realize that I had to choose.... or do I?

I'm in LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!.....



with the Apple G5 Tower

...and I'm getting one @ work!! Oh yeah!!

Yeah...I'm a total geek [but I'm cute!] LOL

And more here


Yippee for me!!!



Finally got my filing cabinet...yeah big deal.

HA...i wanted a black one...and didn't want to pay through the nose on it. For some reason, folks were only selling the beige ones...or the more expensive wooden [furniture looking one].

Thanks to the internet and diligent searching, found one finally on sale @ Home Depot.

Now I'm on track to getting myself somewhat organized.

Wish me luck please! LOL

Yes...I do like nice guys! :)

You know, dating is rough! LOL

I've been members of several online dating services...eharmony, match.com and cupid junction. And well....I'm still single! LOL

Honestly though, I've known folks to be successful on various ones so I'm hopeful :)

I recently met a guy and we had a lot in common AND he was nice. However, it was just like going out with my brother...not one spark!

We went out and did a lot of activities together...he was pleasant... conversation never lagged..yet NO SPARKS!! Why is that? He is a nice guy, just for someone else. I know he is going to bring up meeting again. Oh my, I so do NOT want that. Not if its a dating situation. :(

Someone had actually tried to tell me that it was because he was 'nice'. So NOT true! I've dated nice guys before...with lots and lots of sparks. No it didn't work out. But please don't say its because he was 'nice'. I don't date thugs, or 'non nice' guys. I'm not saying that 'thugs' can't be nice. They just aren't for me! LOL

Someone asked me what the lesson in this was. So far, I've gotten the following:
Just because he's a good guy, doesn't mean he's good for you.
Just because there is not spark, does not mean he can't spark someone else.
Just because you have a lot in common does not mean he's the one for you.

Again I keep looking.
