1. TONIGHT IS MY LAST SOCCER NIGHT!!!! And it should be a good one.
2. I'm currently working on 48 cupcakes for said last night.
3. Today is my Friday, and I'm glad because this has been a crazy week.
4. I'm 75% done Christmas crafting for my extended family as of this morning.
5. Normally I get finished in January, so this is quite the accomplishment for me!
6. H has a guys' weekend this weekend, so I have a treat yoself weekend planned for the rest of us.
7. But "treat yoself" within reason, because broke.
8. I weighed myself this morning, and I'm just shy of 110 lost.
9. I had to buy new pants again.
10. I got a new haircut last weekend, and I'm still in love with styling it every morning. I think this is probably the longest I've ever gone with resorting to a ponytail.

boxerific , *** It's an asymmetrical lob so it's a little shorter than shoulder length in the back.

Oooh I love it! That's how I hope to keep growing mine out. It's a little shorter than yours but I have that asymmetrical thing going to give the illusion that I have more hair. Yours looks great!

Thank you! I wasn't sure about the cut (it was below my shoulder blades) but my stylist talked me into it and I'm really happy with it! My hair is falling out at crazy rates from the weight loss, but it looks like I have way more hair than I do now because it's so much fluffier.

1. I finally made the chicken/onion/tomato pasta dish for dinner last night, and it did not disappoint. 2. I know I found a good meal when it's new and there are no leftovers. 3. My boss is OOT through early next week and I reaaaally don't want to 'hold down the fort' - I'd rather be at home... working from home. 4. I hate the new WW format and really want to cancel my subscription. I'm not using it anyway. 5. I also never have time to go to the gym. I should cancel that, too, and save myself the monthly fee. 6. We're visiting with OOT family this weekend and I can't wait! We haven't seen them in a year. 7. I was running late to work this morning and decided to skip makeup. When I got to work, something said, "Put your face on," so I used my samples in my purse. Damn if I didn't have a client schedule a last-minute meeting! Phew! God Bless sample sizes! 8. I got a salad for lunch, but really wanted something cheesy and hot. Stupid diets LOL 9. Our health insurance when up astronomically this year and I'm super DUPER salty about it. I have to find new physicians for everything, plus a new dentist, PLUS figure out how our prescriptions will work. Of course, the changes affect me the most, so maybe that's adding to my saltiness. 10. At least we all have dental appointments before year-end so we can start fresh in 2018. I love our dentist so, so much. It's making me tear up thinking of leaving her office

oldbaylover1024, our insurance switched over and we had to leave our dentist too. The boys were so bummed, and I was too. The new guy is nice, but it's just not the same!

oldbaylover1024 , our insurance switched over and we had to leave our dentist too. The boys were so bummed, and I was too. The new guy is nice, but it's just not the same! My dentist is a client of mine. I love her - professionally and otherwise. I'm so sad.
And MH wants to find a dentist that's closer to home, which I get. Right now her office is closer to my job, about 20 minutes from home.
So really, it's the right thing to do for him and the kids. But will 100% inconvenience me since I'm the one that takes them (I have to drive 20 minutes, get the kids, go to the dentist, drop them off, then go back to work 20 minutes away). ETA: Right now I have an 'in' with her, so the kids get first appointment and I go on the same day. Then, I drop them at school/DC and WFH for the day. It's glorious.
It's fine. I'm fine. EVERYTHING IS FINE.

oldbaylover1024 did WW change the point system again?!? 1. I'm on a major buffalo chicken kick. I make shredded chicken in the IP on a weekly basis and then portion out an amount many days that week for lunch to serve over a salad or potato. I either don't add enough hot sauce or ADD WAY TOO MUCH (today) and then my esophagus is on fire for 84 years. 2. It's day 19 of my whole 30. 3. I am watching far too many Tasty videos involving chocolate desserts to be considered sane right now. 4. I'm already planning how I will allow myself to eat on Halloween. 5. But I'm pretty sure I'm going to stick to most of the w30 concepts after it actually ends. I'm losing weight, my skin is clearer, and I feel better. 6. Plus also, family pics on 11/4. 7. I'm anxiously awaiting an email from Rocksbox telling me that my next box is ready to be sent. 8. I never thought I'd be a person who cared about fancy jewelry, but this box subscription is super fun. 9. Halloween candy has been ordered. 10. I will have to strategically hide it once it arrives so no one touches it before it is needed.

boxerific - I did WW years ago (2008/9/10) and loved it. Then, they changed the points and I got all messed up LOL I think the current point system is version 3. I just hate the format of the site, and the mobile app is wonky and unreliable. I lost a lot of weight the first time, so I'd like to keep up with it. But the format and app are turning me off. Our photos are 11/11. I feel you LOL

1. I'm home with a sick DS.
2. I'm working on a crochet project today that I'll give as a Christmas present.
3. They're so cute and easy that I'm going to try to make several more for presents.
4. I'd love to learn how to knit but never had the opportunity.
5. It's beautiful here today. I'm stuck inside though with DS.
6. It could stay this gorgeous all year!
7. Unfortunately I live where snow and yucky winters are the norm.
8. I may take advantage of being inside and make some Halloween crayons for my school kiddos. I think I have a silicon pumpkin tray somewhere.
9. I should take advantage and clean my house but meh! It'll be here tomorrow lol.
10. I hope it's ok I've been jumping back into this board...

skategirl128, I'm sorry your little guy is sick. I think knitting is so much easier than crocheting! All you ever really do is knit or purl in knitting. Crocheting has all sorts of crazy moves! We're happy to have you jumping back in!

enchanted - If you teach me how to knit/crotchet/whatever, I can teach you how to make sausage gravy. Or mail me blankets and I'll send you gravy. We can figure this out

I think knitting is easier, but my sister swears crocheting is. I never could figure out crochet. Whenever I attempt to crochet, I end up splitting the yarn and getting pissed, then vowing to never try again because I'm very mature.
