Suzy Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Suzy where do you actually live ?? Do I remember you saying you were off to work near Mississauga? I live in Brampton (next city to Mississauga). There are a few suburban cities that make up the "Greater Toronto Area" (GTA- its called). It's about a 30 minute drive to downtown Toronto. Christine lives downtown Toronto. Family = suburbia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcdeb Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 Good morning, Oldlings! I think the holidays are well and truly over now -- celebrated with my parents over the weekend, so I can finally put away all the decorations, wrappings, etc. Whew. Just read through the thread -- how many pages since I started it Saturday morning???!!! Catching up... i'm back eventually! happy new year dear oldlings! i have an annoying pain in my lower back so i cannot sit for long....argh, a real oldling new year start! so thanks for all your wishes and pm (especially wendi and kath...you are deliciously delicious!) and be sure i'll be back for more time tomorrow...just to let you know i'm here....to stay! Welcome back, Dear Robi! Sorry you're still hurting... but will look forward to seeing more of you soon! Ok..hopefully here ia pic of Ab in her tartan trews! She looks great! And so do the trews! I have dyed it now....it is brown now! Brown?! I can't believe it! :eek: Mid life crisis is a well known subject area here....but to most of us, we don't find that being Mikafied is a crisis realy..it is just amazing! As has been said, it has given many of us such a whole new lease of life. I think that for quite a few people here it has been an amazing transformation. Not so much for me...because I have always been fairly mad and those that know me are used to me doing crazy things. However, I did go through an actual MLC as I aproached my fortieth birthday (well, from about 38 really) and did some pretty scarey things! But the other day, in here, Carri posted a lovely piece of text where someone was saying about growing older and the benefits that it brings.....like not really caring so much about what other people think, having the confidence to be yourself and most of all, being grateful for actually still being here (alive, not actually on MFC although that is good too ) when others who should be our age are not so fortunate. I hope you feel at home here. We are fairly mad in the Oldlings. We talk about anything and everything...there is no such thing as here. PM DC Deb to have your name added to the Oldlings. I think you will find the 'Mothers' thread in general chinwagging like this thread. Midlife Crisis? Me? No way! I'm just rediscovering my crazy side! Seriously, I'm here too for anyone who wants to PM about this... The past year was a revelation to me, and I'm assuming this coming year will be a continuation of the same... As I think Wendy said at one time, "I'm too young to be this old!" or something like that... and I heartily agree! And as *someone else* has said, in a song we might know, we can be anything we like! dcdeb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlottechristy Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 HI Dear Oldlings, Well, I thought that I was going to be without y'all this week...but, that's not going to happen. Oh, HAPPY DANCE!! So, I showed up to class 45 minutes early. It's not that I'm necessarily ambitious...just in L.A. it's either show up 45 minutes early or 1 hour late. It's all about what time you leave. Can't stand it. Anywho, to my surprise...when I walked into class, each seat has it's own little laptop and to my other surprise, guess which site isn't blocked? Yes, I'm a very happy camper this morning. I guess I'll get to catch up during breaks and lunch time. YAY!!!! Hope everyone has a great day and good luck to all those on diets. Haven't been doing so well since being sick..but, haven't gained either so I always find that to be a big positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickadee Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Hi Robi, good to see you posting again! Yes, I too have joined Jemma's thread. That's what you get for not reading back through everything, I didn't see Wendi's msg about Jemma's thread, I found it randomly last night. Ha ha, I even commented on CharlotteChristy's ticker a few day's ago.... Didn't know it was related to that thread, just thought it was something she was doing off her own bat. Morning Oldlings!!

charlottechristy Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Kath, Robi, You know how they say that women who spend a lot of time together usually cycle together? Well, I think we are getting all of our OLDING ailments together. What the heck is going on? Oh, and yes, even men who spend a lot of time with women get the symptoms too. Because I slept all weekend, I was unable to sleep last night. However, I got a 20 minute nap in and had an awesome dream of you know who. I can't wait to get to the chiropracter tonight. My neck is killing me. I'm doing all I can to look down at the computer screen and of course, much of our class is working on the computer. I hope everyone starts feeling better. Our new year isn't supposed to start out like this. thanks tia...i need yr wishes...gosh, my back is here again!i'm coming and going fro a while, need to sort something, then i'll be here!

charlottechristy Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Hey Chickadee, How are you doing? LOL!! Yeah, me? Do anything on my own? LMAO!! I'm such a follower in here. Whatever the MFC does, I seem to do too. LOL!! Please, just don't jump off a bridge anytime soon.......I'm enjoying myself way too much. So, are you on board too Chickadee? I mean, if you aren't big, it's time to start eating healthier and if you do eat healthy, tell us how to do it. LOL BTW- I would like to see that ticker move down some. I'm getting tired of seeing that number there. But, I do have a meeting with a trainer tomorrow. Whoo hoooo!!! Hi Robi, good to see you posting again! Yes, I too have joined Jemma's thread. That's what you get for not reading back through everything, I didn't see Wendi's msg about Jemma's thread, I found it randomly last night.

And a lot is on my abdomen which is the riskiest place to have fat. My dad got diagnised with Type 2 diabetes recently and there is heart disease on both sides of the family AND I was an R.N. so you would think I'd know better huh? (Actually, scratch that part about being an R.N. making you know better. The number of nurses that smoke!......) So, I'm going to get that breakfast that I mentioned on the other thread...
