    Hi Bettie, I was just watching the weather channel, Chicago is going to get some relief from the heat in the next few days. Yeah! Swimming doesn’t help here either, it’s like warm bath water.  LOL!!  I’m glad about how you are feeling about your friend.  You deserve better. Take care and keep cool!! Seize all the good things in life

    Hi Bettie, these dust storms suck!!!  Hopefully, we will get some rain later this week, so it can settle down the dirt!!  I saw where you are having a heat wave.  Stay inside as much as you can and stay cool.  2 months today at Curves- lost 2 more lbs, and more inches.  Besides feeling more healthy, exercising is helping me in my gambling recovery.  Sounds strange, but I seem to have less urges since I’ve been going to Curves.  Maybe it’s all in my head.  LOL!!  Take care and stay cool!!!Seize all the good things in life

    Hi Bettie, I felt soo sad when you were talking about your CG friend who is overdrawn and worried about his mortgage payment being rejected.  I hated those over-drawn days.  I haven’t overdrawn our accounts since I started my recovery over 8 months ago.  What a vicious circle!!!  Thanks for sharing, I can relate, and remember, and not get complacent.Seize all the good things in life

    Hi Bettie, Congrads on your 11 months gamble free time.  I remember seeing  that movie Going Broke, and I though wow, who does something like that!!!  Hello!!!!  I thought it was really truthful in the way the casino hooked her with a big win, and she kept chasing the win.  That’s what happens with most of us.  Another casino?  The economy is supposed to be soo bad, obviously the casinos are still taking in the money.  Well Bettie, keep up the good work!!!Seize all the good things in life

    Hi Kathryn, Glad to hear that you are all moved, that can be real stressful.  It never matters how old we are, our parents can always get to us. Remember, we can’t change them.  You were wise not to go see her when you were still angry and disappointed.  OMG, 3 male cats in one house, now that’s going to be a fun one.  Keep us updated as to how that goes. LOL!!!  Take care!!!Seize all the good things in life

    Hi Bettie, I am soo sorry to hear of your friend’s passing.  You will be fine telling your story on Friday.  Just be you, Bettie, you always have a way with words.  LOL! I’m glad the new assistant has some brains.  Its always nice to hear thank-you!  I didn’t mean to brag, hopefully I didn’t come off that way. I was just soo excited about my results.  I had one of the women (probably 15 years older than me) call me the energizer bunny today during my workout.  Having fun with it too!!!  Take care!!!Seize all the good things in life

    Hi Bettie, I hope you are having a good day, and your new assistant manager is not a jerk.  LOL!!!  As Vera said, you can’t please everyone.  Remember, we are people pleasers.  We need to learn how to put ourselves first!!!  I’m still working on that one, but doing better.  I had my month weigh in and measurements taken today at Curves, I lost 1lb and 8 inches!  I am pleased, the hard work is paying off.  Just need to get my butt there 5 times a week.  Anyways, have a good day and take care!!!Seize all the good things in life
