Just a few more days...

Till I'm off to Texas! I'm working Mon-Thur, leaving at 1:00 Thurs for DFW to perform an audit on Friday in Haltom City. Can't wait! Justin is leaving a day ahead of me and Mac will spend Christmas eve with Scott and Megan and then fly out to DFW on Christmas day. Merry Christmas to meeeeeee

Today I'm down 119 pounds, and feeling great. It's gotten cold here over the weekend, and we didn't leave the house much. I finished up my 3 finals, we worked in the garage and watched football. We've already started receiving some cards...from Mac's mom, brother (Martin), my Uncle Jerry, Dad sent us a crate of Florida citrus and Martin sent some Bourbon Balls, so we've been racking it in!

Sadly, the Cowboys lost today...and the goodie for Mac it looks like the Deadskins might actually pull one out and win against the Giants.

Back to work tomorrow, Mac is off until January 7! Darn those government workers!!

Flat Brandon and I will be leaving Thursday, I'll add my next post that night. If you haven't seen his sight lately, check it out. There's a video clip of our "Christmas Vacation" neighbors down the street. http://www.flatbrandonsjourney.blogspot.com/

Christmas Party

My latest update on weight loss is 117 pounds lost, only 23 pounds away from my goal. =)


My division had a big Holiday Party last night (Saturday) at the Point Plaza Suites Hotel in Newport News. The room was great, large and in a half circle with tables spread out, then in the center of the room you stepped down onto a large dance floor area with tables around the edge. The band was just beyond the dance floor and they were rockin. The decorations were gorgeous, and shockingly Jeri, Ashley and I were very well behaved. (unlike someone else, which I won't name) Jeri and the committee members that helped did a great job on the whole event, it turned out beautiful! Justin worked the coat check area for us and he looked very nice in black slacks, red shirt and red and black striped tie. I was told he was very professional and courteous, so that was nice.



So here's a few pics from the party...some of them could be a little much, so if your faint of heart, turn back now. LOL


From left to right, Joey, Ashley, me, Rhonda, Arnold, and Debbie in her non-church dress




I was the only one modestly covered! HA




Front row: Arnold, Christian, Valerie (the person not named I mentioned before), Ashley, Rhonda, me, and Rhonda's boyfriend David. You can clean these folks up, but you really shouldn't take them out.


Santa just said something rather naughty...something about not needing Viagra tonight?


This is my favorite picture of Jeri! This girl only weighs 95 pounds, but she looks like she has a butt in this picture. (trust me, she doesn't)


Ok, the one picture I do something crazy, and Justin smiles?! Justin, me and Christian (my other son...or so it feels like)


Arnold and Dayna...I didn't see any mistletoe, but...


Unnecessary close up!


Arnold with his door prize, Jeri's front view...Ms. DreamGirl, me...what's up with that face?, Christian


Sorry, this is a little dark, but Joey, Santa and Mac


Mac and I dancing the night away...very Fred and Ginger


Joey kissing Ashley, how many of these do I have? (several)




Oh yes, the one that was not named for behavior reasons, Valerie and her third drink, and Christian.




If only I had a picture of her being forced into a car to keep her from driving home! It was like someone trying to pull a mule who has its feet dug into the ground and not budging. Just glad it wasn't me!!


At least she had fun and doesn't she look happy! I love a happy drunk =)
