Default too much

In the middle of a meeting you take a drink, forget, take too big of a drink, run out of the meeting to be sick, then never missing a beat, get right back into the meeting (the worst part was my boss never even stopped to check on me!! I think we have worked together too long! )

or

You are out with a group of people and you don't order anything, but instead ask for an extra plate, as the waitress brings everyone else's food, they just hold their plate up and you take a little of everything! (Gotta love good friends)

When you see someone's kid looking for their mom in Walmart and their mom is standing in their face waving their arms and the kid looks right past them as if they don't know them and then realizes...THAT IS THEIR MOM! (I still enjoy thinking about this one) hehehe

Totally, Carrie, totally!!
When my daughter's wedding pix came back I kept trying to figure out who the little old lady was in the pictures! I knew she must be important because she was with my kids in a bunch of pictures.......

...they know the nutritional facts of every protein supplement on the market.

...their pants fall down unexpectedly...and reveal a sharpei.

...they talk about things like a pannus and loss of hair...and STILL say it's the best thing they've ever done!

Goal! I did it!

Reached my new goal of 130...and I think I want to stop losing now. "Stop losing now".Wow, I never thought I'd ever say that!
Looks like Donna is right though. My body doesn't seem to be done...
