Weight Loss Forum / WeightWatchers / May 2005Weeks 2 & 3 & GE
Stuff happens, week 2 I was sick and on antibiotics and couldn't go for WI. Saturday we were having a blizzard, I went to WW only to find they were closed, so it'll be a bit before I enter an official new weight. GE--week 2 only once, my week 3, 4 times. Oh, we're having another snow storm, as if we didn't already have enough. Hopefully I can get my WI on Saturday. Hope you're all having a great week, and no one is ill. -- Linda J (252)/211.2/208.4/10%--190 Good luck this week. Both on your weight as well as getting to a meeting. Stay warm and safe with this next round of snow. We got 15" on Sunday and another 1-3" is due tonight. > Stuff happens, week 2 I was sick and on antibiotics and couldn't go for WI. > Saturday we were having a blizzard, I went to WW only to find they were [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > Linda J > (252)/211.2/208.4/10%--190 >Stuff happens, week 2 I was sick and on antibiotics and couldn't go for WI. >Saturday we were having a blizzard, I went to WW only to find they were [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] >Oh, we're having another snow storm, as if we didn't already have enough. >Hopefully I can get my WI on Saturday. Welcome to my world. I love this country with all my heart, and I'd love it more if the snow would stay cross-country-skiiable - but it seldom does.LOL Don't worry - I'm going out today to look for more skiis - expect a major thaw in the next few days.

Lots of ski-workers could use the assistance as they have all been layed off and all Western Washington ski areas are closed till further notice. >best of luck, I hate snow, perhaps you could send it to Fred, Lee >> Stuff happens, week 2 I was sick and on antibiotics and couldn't go for [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] >> Linda J >> (252)/211.2/208.4/10%--190 It is really early for them to close isn't it? I lived in Arlington for 7 years before moving to Colville. Just bought almost 18 acres this summer in Colville for retirement that can't come soon enough for us.

King-tv just announced that Snoqualmie Pass only has 20% of its normal snow. Even Mt Baker which had set the snow fall record 2 or 3 years ago closed for lack of snow. Things are rather dismal. Forest fires may be really bad this coming summer if there is not a turnaround. When I bike rode across the state we hit Colville. Quite remote (G) I saw you mention retiring back here. >It is really early for them to close isn't it? I lived in Arlington for 7 >years before moving to Colville.

One area at 4,000 feet (1,300 meters?) has ZERO snow and has beat an old record set in 1977 when it had a low of 2 inches. There should be FEET of snow up there. Folks have been doing summer hikes and only running into snow at 5,000 feet. We might get a touch this weekend. The low overnight was nearly 50F which is warmer than the normal daily high of about 47F >I know where your snow is. My yard.

Tis the season for clothing store clearance sales. Last night, I bought a lovely skirt a size below my current one for only $20.00 Cdn, as a promise to myself that I will get down there before too much longer. I'm back into my smaller size clothes. Haven't lost all that much so far, but man, have I toned up over the past three months! So, currently down a size overall. Shirley Hicks Toronto, Ontario starting: 223 Currently at: 213 Goal: 160 I usually shop at thrift stores for bargains because I don't want to spend money on clothes I don't plan to wear for long...however, I got a pair of nice black pants at WalMart the other day for 7 bucks. The best part for me was that i got them off the regular-size rack - not the supersize (or whatever cutesy name they're calling big clothes these days...lol) Lynne Highest Weight - 308 WW Start Weight this time around Dec 29/04 - 222.4 Weight this week - 216.6 Goal - 150 (Subject to change) "Change doesn't happen while you're sitting around." >So... > [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] >Currently at: 213 >Goal: 160 Great work Shirley.

[quoted text clipped - 38 lines] >>>>>>Colville for retirement that can't come soon enough for us. >>>>>>Adele Well, snow in our passes FINALLY. Just not enough to open the ski areas. And now they are talking about potential lowland snow, just a trace, tonight or tomorrow morning. Fickle weather. I think I'm going to hike in it today and maybe try skiing tomorrow??? >Spring break is not till March 21-25, so hopefully it will be decent then, >just no snow on the pass roads, so I can get up there in the car and not [quoted text clipped - 44 lines] >>>>>>>Colville for retirement that can't come soon enough for us. >>>>>>>Adele We're getting some snow here right now, but it poured rain all night so the snow won't amount to anything.

Think >I'll hide out in the house and do some more painting. > >Have fun skiing today if you go! I loved the remoteness of Colville. Told my DH about it and he said ok, then we will go look there for land. After 3 days going around with a realtor in a 4x4 over and under sideways and more, we finally found a piece of land that is mostly flat. The place I had before had such a hilly driveway that even with 4x4 and studs I still couldn't get up it in the winter time. So this time it is a flat driveway. What amazes my DH is that taxes there per year are equal to what we pay here per month. Schools are good there, my 26 yo graduated from the HS. We are planning a strawbale house and thinking of alternate energy, will still be on grid but not totally dependent on it. Since DH is definately an introvert person(he hates crowds and actually had anxiety attacks in them if left alone to long) country living will be great for us. I have the internet and church to be with people so I will be great also. Besides, I will have close to 18 acres for gardening and chickens and all. I love my gardening.

[quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > >Colville for retirement that can't come soon enough for us. > >Adele Sounds idylic. I am still mostly an urban person - originally from NYC! But really like the rural areas and, of course, hiking and cross-country skiing in the mountains. I really did like Republic. I recall some antique store-restaurant in Colville (west side of main street???) where I had lunch or rather a soda. We camped at the fairgrounds. This, again, was on my bike trip across Highway 20. I generally got to each day's end pretty tired (G) >I loved the remoteness of Colville. Told my DH about it and he said ok, >then we will go look there for land.

But I can't imagine biking it. We will be 20 miles n of Colville out Aladdin Rd. Best thing is that it is on a school bus route so I KNOW it will be kept snow free in winter time. Still is hard waiting these next 6.5 years though. We both want to get out there now, but unless they offer DH an early out, it is wait till he is 55 or his pension goes bye bye. After working there 28 years so far I think it is best to wait the last few. Adele Signature248/242/169 minigoal 238 2/13/04 > Sounds idylic.

[quoted text clipped - 4 lines] >working there 28 years so far I think it is best to wait the last few. >Adele It will be Meadow Creek Road off of Aladdin, heading to Northport yes. But High School kids from Northport go to Colville HS and that is at the Colville end of aladdin Rd. Also Aladdin is a main route to Canada so it is also kept clear for that, only other way is 20 or 25 i think. Adele Signature248/242/169 minigoal 238 2/13/04 > I am beginning to taste retirement...
