1. Good job, Lance! I hope I never, ever skydive.

2. Dinner tonight was a total ruin. You probably won't believe me, but I swear the package of italian sausage said mild. I know because when I browned what was clearly spicy italian sausage I went through the garbage and checked the wrapping. No one would eat it, except my husband and since he's in Iraq.... Then I took spagetti sauce out of the freezer and it definitely had that freezer taste to it. Blech.

3. I know that was way more than a single fact, but I had to explain myself.

1. I love Grannyg!!!!
2. I would never want to skydive. I would hurl. I hope you had a great time Lance!!
3. There is NO way I believe that War did nothing today. She does more in one day than I do in a month!
4. I have a really wonderful sister. :)

1. Congratulations, Lance!!!

2. Monday I went with DH to the bankruptcy lawyer and made the lawyer almost cry because I made him crunch numbers until he came up with a plan I could live with. I could NOT live with "you will lose everything".

3. So we have 3-5 months to move but at least we have a place to move to. We are going to get to keep our rental properties. So we will be moving into 2 apts, upper and lower.

4. Since its the only one without a mortgage hubby has to move over there NOW! before the papers are filed with the court. So for a while we will be living apart while I stay here and pack. But we're only a few blocks from there.

5. I SOOOO LOVE everyone here at TVCH! You guys are just the absolute best and you have really helped me deal with losing my dream home. You have lifted my spirits and put a smile back on my face! BIG s to each of you !

1. Twinks, my heart and thoughts are with you during these trying times.

2. Lance, my wascally-wabbit friend...I'll be having salad with you in Long Beach..LOL!

3. Also Lance, skydiving? Awesome!! I admire your inner spirit...(and your former self must be smiling too!)

4. Hmmm...I think I'll look into skydiving for my 50th birthday because Lance has inspired me!

5. I, too, adore all the wonderful people in this thread who continually share a part of themselves.

6. My life is extremely busy right now but I'm not complaining...I feel truly blessed to be doing my "thang".

1. Lance, How did it feel? Was it awesome or scary? Will you do it again? Wow, you are doing things that they do in amazing race! That's is just wonderful. What is in store when you reach your goal?
2. Can you tell that I am so impressed with Lance!?
3. Twinkle, you hang in there! I know these days must be rough!
4. My girlfriend and her husband are moving up from Fl to Myrtle Beach! They are moving almost next door. But we are moving possibly in Jan to another house in town.
5. My hubby has been gone 1 week and it is very quiet around here!
6. My son left to go to Hong Kong on Sunday for 6 weeks.
7. I am curious about that recipe of Lance's.

1. I will sky dive again--it is like nothing else. I was nervous only as we sent from where we were sitting in the plane to the door. Once my feet were outside the airplane, it all went away.

2. When I reach 180, my goal is to keep focus on eating well and in moderation.

3. Egbok, I would be happy to have some salad with you.

4. KP, the recipe is that of Pyrochef actually. I will mail it to you.

5. I posted in this thread when it first started--it was a long post, as I said a lot about myself--lol.

6. I hope the best for everyone and their goals--be it losing weight, getting in shape, quitting smoking, changing your life--anything at all--people at TVCH are inspiring to me.

7. I'm the same person I was when I weighed 310--just a bit smaller version.

8. If you ever get the chance to meet someone from TVCH, I hope you are in a position to do so--it has always been a rewarding experience for me.

1. Ack, 9 again!

2. I'm so impressed with Lance and his weight loss and his sky dive.

3. Lori, I really did almost nothing today! I washed dishes, folded and hung ONE load of laundry (which is now sitting in a basket in the middle of the living room,) took my sis to the store and took care of two sick kids...that was it.

4. Yep, I said two. Caleb came home from school complaining of a headache. At the time I didn't think too much of it since sometimes if he's had a busy day at school, and his eyes get tired he gets them. Couple hours later he was completely worn out, running a fever, and in tears because he felt so lousy.

5. I was right! The last time I took Kota to urgent care, I didn't pay my co-pay (they'll bill me when I have to rush in.) Two weeks ago we went in with Caleb and argued with the office staff over owing them money. They swore we didn't. This afternoon their office manager called to ask if I could drop their money off. I explained that we tried to pay them, but they wouldn't let us, lol. She laughed and said she'd leave them a note.

6. My sisters soon to be arriving baby is causing certain urges in me. I can't wait til she has the baby so I can get over it and enjoy having a new neice to spoil, play with, and watch on occassions, and then get to send home.

7. Sending out hugs to Twinks and her hubby!

8. Lori, sisters are amazing aren't they?

9. Hi Granny!

So is Lance the only male member of our board who has posted in here??

Come on you guys out there! Share yourselves with the rest of us! You know you are much loved so you can say almost anything and we'll just love you even more!

1. I hope all the sick TVCH kidlets are better just as quickly as they got sick!

2. I'm turning 50 this weekend.

3. I feel fortunate to reach these big numbers because my dad and oldest sister didn't even live to be 40.

4. My hubby is the best hubby for me. Even when he frustrates me, I still love and appreciate him very much. (mental note to self: Tell him this!)

5. I made some healthy lifestyle changes this year and am feeling very fit. I eat healthy foods (most of the time) and have increased my walking to 5 miles a day. Last week I joined a new exercise class at the gym. It's scheduled to run through the whole winter.

6. As a nice bonus, I've also lost 8 pounds in the past month. I've been reading the weight loss thread for months and have been inspired by the great success stories and support there.

7. I had chickenpox twice as a kid and shingles once. I was pregnant when I had shingles and glad it was a mild case and late in the pregnancy.

8. I loved Survivor last week!

9. We're going to The Big E and the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield MA this weekend. From all I've heard, it should be lots of fun.

10. I love this thread. I don't post often but love reading about all of you.

1. I am leaving at noon today to go to the spa for a pedicure with my sister.

2. I can't stand being at work lately. This time of year is always really bad for me. I get the pre-winter depression this going on.

1. I also have posted here a couple of times.
2. I applaud Lance for having the drive and fortitude to stick to his weight loss goal.
3. I, on the other hand, seem to be following the diet of Dr. Atkins' evil twin, Dr. Fatkins...

1. I have posted little know facts about myself in here before. I'll try to recall them now.
2. My first name is Bob.
3. My last name is not 2112.
4. Yes, I think that is everything.

1. I enjoy posting here and love reading everyone else's facts!

2. Autumn is my favorite time of year, and I'm always at my most cheerful in the fall.

3. I have a new office pet - Rocky the red betta fish. He has his own 1 gallon tank and seems pretty happy. When I'm working at my desk, he watches my every move. He's like, "Watcha doin'? Whatcha doin' now? Whatcha doin' now? Can I have some food? Whatcha doin' now?" I'm becoming very attached to him already - is that strange?

4. I'm on two teams in the Survivor Deadpool - one (Flotsam and Jetsam) is fourth from the top of the rankings, and the other (Rum Runners) is third from the bottom! I'm having so much fun!

1. I got my hair cut today. About two inches off the bottom and I got choppy layers put in - and framed around my face. I love it, but think others will hate it, not sure. It isn't as "neat" as it was - not it looks more messy and I like it :)

2. I mowed my grass last night. I got out a ruler and measured it - all over it was about 9 inches tall. I used a push mower. Took me three times longer than normal. Now there is grass everywhere in my yard and I don't give a rip. I'm gonna let the Kansas wind blow it to Oklahoma.

3. Yesterday was makeover day for my car. I got the tires rotated and balanced, got the oil change, and got it cleaned. Then, I brought it home and conditioned the leather and the rest of the interior.

4. Today is the one year anniversary of my surgery. This time last year - exactly - I was waking up in extreme pain in the recovery room. What a difference a year makes. I've been reflecting on the last year a lot lately. I can't believe it still.

5. Tomorrow is my 29th birthday. I'm leaving for Texas and will spend my birthday evening with sorority sisters. Then, Friday I'll drive to Austin for the TVCH Austin gatherings. I am looking forward to it all so much.

6. Geez...everytime I come to post in this thread, I turn into a sap. Well, more of a sap than usual. Today is the last day of Big Brother and I go through withdrawal each year. Because I never leave, I sometimes feel like a summer camp counselor. Each year...they come in, stay a few months, I get attached to some (not so much to others - lol), but regardless, when they leave it is a bit sad. I missed my friend Deeya this season and don't know what happened to her. Maybe she found another camp :(

`d`e`e`y`a will probably be back for Survivor, won't she?
