It didn't take me 4 years this time

[Anniesnan]

Hi, everyone!

I see a number of familiar faces, and hopefully I haven't been gone so long that no one remembers me.

I have a multitude of excuses and not a single good reason for staying away so long.

Up to the last 2 months I was doing my usual, following pp for breakfast and then going the wrong way from there.
The last 2 months have been even worse for some reason and I have gained back everything I lost and then some.

I plan to stick around permanently this time.

Where you been, girl?!! How is Annie? We'll take you back, of course. I don't even want to hear your excuses--I have a book of them myself! Are you going to join us in the January Challenge? We're having a good old time! :) I missed you.

Thanks, Carol. Hope I got that right and it's not Carole.

I haven't been on the internet much. or on the computer much. We were withut one for a while. And when I first got back from vacation, I had so much catching up with at home, at work, then our computer did a nose dive, then, then, then ...

I am going to take a look at the Challenge

WELCOME BACK!!

Of COURSE we remember you, and our arms are extended wide to bring you back into the fold!!!

[Anniesnan]

thank you, Amy!
I'm so glad so many of you are still here!

:confused: Where else can we go? :rolleyes: ;) :D

Hi Agnes! Welcome back! :)

[Missy]

Annie! I'm so pleased to 'see' you back!! :D I guess one of the good things about this place is that we are ALL the same...and once your 'in the fold'...your ALWAYS in the fold...you know. That goes for anyone..and it's not an exclusive group...but one that understands how it goes.

I think it's interesting as ALL get out how each of us 'do' over the long haul of it all actually. That only comes from having put your time 'in' at some point and participating.

I'm happy to see ya!...Aggie. :evil::D

[Anniesnan]

Hi, Beth! Thank you!:D

Carol - Annie is fine - terrific. She started pre-kindergarten this year and has grown up so much. Christmas was a trip:D

[Anniesnan]

Lynn,

you are right - it is interesting what we all do over the long haul.

I almost missed the end:eek::D

I must be aging, it only got my goat for about 5 seconds:D

[Rhyme'n Reason]

Welcome back! It's good to see you. A lot of us have trainwrecked and then gotten back on track (including me). Just pick yourself up and start again--we'll be here to help in any way we can.

I think I actually stopped "hearing my grandmother" - the one I was named after - screaming "don't let them call you that". Little did she know that my "normal" childhood soloution was to kick the offender;)

[Anniesnan]

Thanks, Ruth! I hardly feel like I've been away at all - except for the fact that the recent weight gain is felt around my middle when I sit and type:rolleyes::mad:
