I just checked the tracking number (I think tracking stops at the border) and it says it is in transit since Thursday and gives an expected delivery range of 3-9 days. I hope you get it sooner than later.

I will keep looking for Corals and wait to hear about the colours for April, May June.

I figured yours might be abit longer. Thanks for letting me know it is on its way. I will let you know when it does arrive. I will be posting the colors for April, May and June in March. If I give too many months , they could get lost in my messy apartment right now. It looks like a tornado has gone through. I am such a clutter bug and lazy when it comes to cleaning up......LOL

as far as the coral color...........think about what you see in the colors of a sunset. that might help you.

Good morning ladies..... I have sent out some PM this morning as a follow up to some of you who I havent heard from or seen a post since some said they wanted to join. I am encouraged by all who have wanted to join us.

Keep up your hard work. If you need some encouragement we are here to help you any way we can.

I am off to finish my mystery train scrappy quilt top. I am almost finished with the 3rd and final clue. Will post a picture when I get it finished.

Fun Fact I recently read Drink 16oz water right away in the am and you will consume 20-25% less. I'm down some :), working on not eating through the emotional ups and downs of life. Why do U thinks its going to help.... It never does. I'm working on a quilt for my daughters graduation Browns,beiges and a little burgundy. A stretch for me I'm a pink/pastel florals type quilter, but it's looking good and she will Love It.

Jodi I don't know about the water making you consume that much less. It does help to make you feel full and it also helps to flush the toxins out of your body.
Cindy I am working on the Mystery train too. I am ready to start on putting together step 3. I can't find my 2 1/2 x 4 1/2 inch strips. I might just recut them.

I am finishing up my clue 3, now putting the rows together. I hope to have a picture soon even if I haven't sewn these to the rest.

Jodi, like meanmom I know it helps you feel fuller at meal time, and does flush your body. I add lemon to my water to help me out. cant drink tap water so I have to buy some bottled water. i found a 3 liter for $1 that I can keep at my desk and I dont have to have it cold. can drink it at room temp. it is the easiest for me to do to make sure i get my water, especially since i am on the phone for 8 hours a day. need plenty to keep my throat moist.

Hope everyone is doing good on their weight loss. I am doing much better then I expected to be doing. I have had 2 doctors appointments already this month and it has given me lots of incentive because I am proud of the progress I have made. It is still hard work.
Twice this week we have gone to Walmart to push around the heavy grocery cart plus one day pushing the grocery cart full of groceries. By the time grocery day was over, I thought I was going to die I was having so much pain in my feet and legs from the neuropothy. ;)) I hope that everyone has a great week. ;) Keep up the good work.

Hi all just checking in for the week. Weight loss so far 7# not to bad but keeping up the good choices and walking isn't really all that fun. But I am making progress. Three fat quarters mailed and should be there ASAP
