What a lovely, lovely presentation. Thank You Lori. Fall is beautiful but for me it is a downer. Cooler weather, shorter days, and WHAT FOLLOWS I DONT LIKE.
Beautiful hostess greeting, pledge(Dave & GKs look alike) & ping!
I wont be here much today. As I mentioned TweetyinOhio and I are starting tonight the Weight reduction support group at church. I am facilitator & she is my right hand woman/helper. It is coed & for ages 12 up (12 - 14 year old must have responsible adult with them). Tweety's daughter Katie will be with us also. She as a 12 year old will benefit greatly by faithful participation.
I am setting up a correspondence part for non = locals. If you are interested FReepmail me your email addy (even if I have it, just be sure, I have anew computer set up w/cable & so am transferring things). I will send you handouts & hope that you will join us in the homework, pix taking, measurements, weigh ins etc. Info is all kept to yourself UNLESS YOU WANT TO SHARE WITH OTHERS. You of course will NOT have the benefit of discussion & my words of wisdom (har) but will have the "sheets". If someone eventually wants to copy/share/email their notes to the correspondies that would be great.
Not so much wanting folks to give starting numbers but over weeks, months to share the inches lost, weight lost, firmness observed etc & maybe some before/after pix
It is going to be a fun class BUT I AM REALLY BEHIND EIGHT BALL.. most of my materials I have used in past years & could merely take to copy machine have been destroyed in basement floods the past year or so. Today I am scrambling to get the materials for class one together..
It is a very complex class. Will NOT involve one weight program but will be a life style change mentality. The spiritual aspect will be stressed as well as holistic health/healing; exercise: toning, stretching, conditioning, aerobic for those interested. The emotional/psychological parts of the issue will be impt part of each class.
We will meet every other wed. On alternate Weds I have a grief(widow/widower) class that I facilitate.
Later all.. love you & will read/catch up later.

Well most of you know that when my Aunt Dolly sets out to do something...she does it..I'm so proud of her facilitating both of these much needed groups in our Church . People have hurt, grieved, and have been just angry for many different reasons, and we have all had our ups and downs throughout our life with our weight, we are only as comfortable with our weight as we allow it. No one is perfect only one is! Our GOD. So with these thoughts I say...WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE? Have a great Day folks. God Bless!

What a lovely, lovely presentation. Thank You Lori. Awww......thanks, Dolly.

That is EXACTLY the way I feel about it. I dread winter with a passion. Each year it gets colder and damper and LONGER. And each beautiful autumn day that passes brings us closer to my least favorite season. :-(
My old bones need sunshine and warmth and, in this part of CA, many weeks can go by with neither. January and February, when the Tule fog settles in this valley, it is so depressing to the spirit. It isn't like me to not look on the bright side of everything. Problem is, there is nothing bright about the winter in the Central Valley.
Okay, now that I have gotten that out of my system, I promise not to say another word about it. :-)
