This is for the Weight Loss Challenge.
This is as close to shirtless as I am going to get and this is a rare view of part of me.
Can you tell by the complete lack of tanning on my stomach that I pretty much always keep it hidden.
Linking to my Weight loss tracking.. scarey picture!!! ::shivers::
Oh.. And.. good luck to all of us trying to get fit!

So I listed my options for my daughter.
I may have another. Have sent in an application for a PAID position in the Red Cross located in New Jersey. If this works out, I can help her with the rent and help watch the kids at night and weekends. So I'll be keeping my fingers crossed I hear something soon.
If this comes through.. it will be good for all involved I think. And I'll get to visit with my Son and my friends. Maybe een invite them over for a jam session once in a while.
Only Time will tell.. I just hope it happens.. soon!

Sometimes I have to wonder why things happen the way they do. Some people seem so great when you first meet them, only to have them turn out to be the least liked person in your life.
I can't go into specifics because it would end up hurting innocent people in the long run, but suffice it to say that I have found that I really don't want to be around certain people more than is absolutely necessary. And it's hard to put up with their level of incompetency week after week. Does not make the work environment quite as enjoyable. All I can say is thank god they only come in once a week or I'd really be thinking meaner thought right now.
Speaking of thoughts... Been thinking about how to make something better for my daughter. There are two options, well maybe more, but I'll start with two. One is to go back to NJ and become her live in Nanny. That is not really my top choice.
Second is that She move down here.. which I am betting isn't exactly her first choice. She'd need to wait till a job offer came in before she could even attempt it. And then She'll have to try to find some place down here to do her internship for her Masters.
Right now.. neither idea seems to be very good.
And Life goes on!

It's been a while since I've written anything. Shame on me!!
But an event, or rather a story of an event, was just so amusing.. (Sort of) That I just had to share.
It all started with my Older sister going to Boston. While she was there she and her two daughters went to what was called "The Scooper Bowl". A large festival where you paid $8 to get in and then could walk around and get ice cream from the dozens of vendors inside for free. From her description, the place was mobbed. There was no room to move around and people were crowded in all over. Making it near impossible to get out of line once you got your "scoop". CHAOS!
Well, as they got closer to the front, there was this woman who had one of those really big strollers and about 5 kids hanging all over it. When the Stroller lady got her Ice cream she started to shout, "Out of my way, Stroller coming through" My Younger niece, who we'll call 'K', Looked at the woman and made a comment something like, "You shouldn't have a stroller like that in here. It already too crowded." While I tend to disagree with that remark as I have had to deal with trying to keep my eye on two kids, I have to say that what happened next was unbelievable.
The Stroller lady looked at 'K' snubbed her nose in the air, then Commented to my other niece ('J' for the sake of this tale, who is rather stocky) And commented that 'J' didn't need to get fatter on ice cream and should leave so that the skinny people could have breathing room. Words were exchanged and Stroller lady left... or so they thought.
A few minute later Stroler Lady walked up and slammed a dish of icecream into J's face. Of course J reacted and fought back. ow all this time My Sister "S" had not been quiet, she'd most likely had a few choice words for Stroller Lady as well. But Wen Stroller lady went after her daughter.. S decided to react.
What was the first thing that came to her mind to stop this attack on her Daughter?
was it..
A) Slamming her dish of Ice cream into the other woman's face
B) Calling 911 and getting the COPS
or
C) The "Vulcan Nerve Pinch"
Oh Yes.. it was the Nerve pinch, or as my sister called it the "Vulcan Death Grip"!!
For a woman who claims adamantly that she does not like Star Trek that much.. I find this absolutely hysterical that this was the first ting she thinks of..
And no.. it didn't really work.. but Stroller lady disappeared after having torn J's dress and given her a bruise on her face. J went looking for cops and stroller lady.. Standing outside yelling "I've Been Assaulted" Her dress torn on one side, Bra showing in full view and ice cream melting on her face.
Oh And the stroller and all the kids were nowhere in sight.. so she either had someone with whom she could leave the kids in the first place.. or she left them somewhere by themselves. Real good parenting on Stroller ladies part... NOT!
Where are those people with the Video phones when you need them???

Yes 2009 has come and gone. It's bee a year of surprises. Some good and some.. well.. judge for yourself.
Modern art???
Don't I Wish... That's my Laptop
Yes, I close out 2009 and start 2010 with a bang.. but All in all it was a good year despite the shoulder injury that I am still waiting for surgery on.
We lost some of our players to untimely deaths. Those players will remain in our hearts for a long time.
Someone asked me if I got everything I wanted for Christmas.. Well.. I had a white Christmas and got to spend 3 weeks up north with my kids and Grandkids. So Yeah.. That's what I wanted. I would have like to have made arrangements to get together with some of my FSF Friends and family but I think that will have to wait till Shore Leave.
In any case.. Farewell 2009... Welcome 2010!!!

Yes Folks,
Shore Leave 31 has come and gone and I already want to go back!!
It was really nice to see Truce, Margo, Falk, Joe, and KU again, and meet Arianna and BlackJack.
I had an interesting time running the Fan Table for the FSF. Was in the same area where the "stars" had their autograph tables. So I got to see them most of the day. Got some pics of them from the comfort of my table. Also got some pics of some of the costumes people were wearing. Some good.. some.. well you wouldn't catch me in that thing!! (Watch the boards for the links when we get them uploaded)
We got some new names for our mailing lists, and even got one person to JOIN FSF right then and there!! Next year will be even better! Got some good ideas to work on promoting us even better.
Had a great time with everyone at the Hotel, Football keep-away in the pool was a blast.. even though I got there sort of late. And of course they had to torment me yet again with SPIDERs..::SHIVERS:: All in good fun, but I REALLY HATE SPIDERS!!!
We had a good time at the Masquerade and Ten Forward Dance Party Saturday Night. Ran over to the "Bar" while they were setting up and listened to some Karoake. Pretty sure we could do better.. but hey.. ten forward was starting and that's what we came to see.
Seems the Live Video Feed went over well.. Had a few peeps in the chat room all the time. Have a few ideas for making that better next year too LOL
ALL in ALL, I think we had a good year. Time to start Planning for next year

I am thrilled the CAD has finally proven itself and moved into the world of regular SIM. The Guild SIM USS Caduceus (or as we tend to spell it CADECUS) This has been a labor of love for those of us who have been on the crew for it's entire life. And we are both thrilled and Proud to have finally be given the status of FSF SIM

Well you probably all know by know that I love Music... So much so that ever since I got my laptop I am VERY HAPPY because now I can go to the OPEN MIC and still be at my SIM on Thursdays.
Well Last night... this song just seemed so appropriate..
and yes.. blatant advertising for the FSF

I have been thinking a lot lately. Yeah, that's where the smoke is coming from! I realized something.
Except for a precious few, most of the people I consider my friends at this pint in my life I have met here in the FSF. Strange when you think that most of you I only know by a screen Name or a character in a SIM.
In few short years I have come to think of this group as my extended family. When someone is sick, I am concerned for them. When there is good news, I rejoice for them. And so it is with this in mind that I want to say to all of you...
May the celebration of whatever faith you follow be a joyous occasion and may the New Year be filled with the realization of your hopes and dreams.
