Carrie, That's great. Now that the pred weight has started to go, it will be easier.
Trupeach, how 'bout a Rubbermaid outdoor storage box? One time purchase, no monthly rental and should be waterproof, etc. Your future DIL will have to appreciate you for who you are, not what you own. My house is so full of fabric, I wouldn't know where to start.
My weight was down a bit yesterday. Here's hoping it stayed that way. I did way too much emotional eating after my doctor app't. What I heard wasn't what I wanted!
I may be giving up chocolate for Lent. That will be a real stretch for me, but that's the idea, isn't it? My friend is doing it, but he's stronger than I am in a lot of ways.

Missy,
I just tried to call you. No answer and no voice mail. :(
Carrie, you are doing great! Taking weight off on steroids is terribly hard to do.
Remclave, you are my shero! What a great effort!
Irish, I'm still trying to decide what to give up for Lent...I know, a day late, but I want it to be real...I'm thinking limiting my computer time to 2 hours a day, AND No second portions, even on salad, AND no carbonated beverages, AND no fabric purchases. God will bless these efforts.
Tru, I think Lowe's would deliver the outdoor storage box to you. That's a good idea. Are your closets completely packed full? What about calling the Salvation Army to send a truck to pick up your donations? Would that give you more room?
You could package it all in BIG boxes, have UPS pick it up, and ship it to somebody. Then we could ship it back after the company leaves.
Missy, you are doing fantastic on your weight loss! Keep it up, girl!

They will be really safe.

Ok so do not want to change the topic but I am making a signature wedding quilt for my nephew and his future. I asked what colors she would like and she said coral and Latte?
What color is latte? I am thinking it is coffee color with cream. But how much cream?
I am going to pick out 4 shades of each color so I guess I will start with chocolate to a light brown????
Coral I am thinking pinky orange to peach???
What do you think???
