Hi again FINALLY! I will be joining again altho I won't be participating for the FQ this time. I know I told you that I am an emotional eater and last you heard of me was October. Well in October my sister died, my uncle died, and my niece and her family were in the midst of a health crisis. I had to go back east to be with them. Dieting or watching any food intake was not high on my radar. Needless to say when I got back, the entire board had DISAPPEARED! What I found was something I could not use. I lost all my former bookmarks and am finally feeling comfortable with a few things here. I finally found this group again.

I bought a new Singer 301 birthed in 1954 but I haven't recieved it yet. Looking forward to getting it this week. I hope. We had the incredible winds and so many people lost their power and trees, homes, etc. Now that it is the 3rd of January the Rose Parade is over. That is always 3 weeks preparation and two intensive days on the route and two days of checking, cleaning and putting away equipment till next year. So today I will be working on Rose Parade stuff. It is and has been in the 70's and 80's here so we are having beautiful weather. Wish I could send some of it to you who are in the really cold.

Now to start tackling something that took years to accumulate. Too much weight! I am glad I found you guys again. I have missed all the encouragement and support. I will catch up on the previous pages gradually but just wanted to jump in and stick my toes back in the water. So I guess I will just say Let's all have a bountiful 2012in all the good things in life, just not in gaining weight.
