Thanks everyone for your hair comments. I do think I will go back to my natural curl, and easy fixing. We have another pretty day today.

I'm in again, Cindy. I don't tend to post very much, but I do enjoy reading everyone's posts. (I'll try to post more this month.) I sent FQ for April, May, and June already.
I'm in a hexagon frenzy! just learned how to do the English paper piecing and have made about 250 in the past 10 days! I'm going to make a couple of table runners with hexie flowers. I used a yellow leaf print with ladybugs as the hex for the center of each flower...so now they all have ladybugs!

Good luck, everyone! If you're looking for a quick start, check out the Overnight Diet...it's a good eating plan that includes one day of homemade shakes (with protein powder or yogurt) and then 6 days of lean protein/low carb reasonable meals. Does a pretty good job of getting you started with a 2 lb loss from the shake day. My hubby is loving the shakes as well!

Where do you get more info about that Overnight Diet that you mentioned? It sounds interesting.

I saw it on the cover of a weekly mag at the grocery store, then googled it. the book is available at Amazon. I got the kindle version.

I GOT A DIFFERENT JOB FOR NEXT YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!! Any who don't know me, I work in a multiple disability classroom and am very unhappy. I talked to the principal and also notified HR. The principal and she hooked me up with the new position for next year. This is a huge load off of my shoulders. I was thinking I was going to have to job hunt this summer. Now I can have a nice relaxing summer.
I missed my bootcamp class for the last week and a half. Boy could I tell. Hope I'm not too sore. Maybe now that the job stress is gone I can behave myself better. Maybe I won't need so much medication(chocolate).
