I have not been around very much but I still enjoy coming to this website. We finally got a new home computer, so I will be able to check in more often. I was happy to see some of the same names appearing in the forums. I hope you are all doing well and that you have had a nice Christmas and that you have an even better 2008.
My news: still exercising alot (lost 30 pounds) and am anticipating doing a biggest loser competition at the Y where I work ( I barely qualify weight-wise as you have to be overweight and I am in the barely overweight category thanks to my weightloss 2 years ago.
We are expecting our first grandchild, Benjamin (already named) on or about January 26, '08.
Our last of 4 children will graduate college in June, but plans to go to Medical school, so he has many more years of "schooling" ahead.
Our oldest child, a man of 30, has moved back here after living in Washington DC, Puerto Rico, Alaska the last 5 years. He has still not found the "right" woman to settle down. We keep telling him the perfect woman does not exist!
Our daughter still lives in NYC, on 5th Avenue, with all her expenses paid, and no she is not someone's mistress, but a nanny for a well-to-do family.
Hubby of 35 years continues to be a pain in the neck.......seriously we are doing fine. Thanks for listening to all my news. Hope to get back here soon and often. Liz/chippers21/ also known as the organizer of many reality tv contests
