OK, I've gone easy on us the last several weeks, but this morning you need to put your thinking caps on for at least some of these. I think we'll all benefit from them and maybe have our eyes opened, as well. Lurkers, don't hold back!


1. What do you expect to get from this board from your participation?


2. What do you expect to add to the board by your participation?


3. Do you

I loved your #5 Patty! I feel the same way! Those slumps hit me hard! Sometimes it takes weeks to get me out of my slump of just wanting to sleep and not watch what I eat. It's called being stressed out! I'm still stressed out this week, but to be honest, I feel like I'm doing my body a favor this week by working out so much and eating right.

1. What do you expect to get from this board from your participation? I've certainly gotten alot out of this board - more than I have given, absolutely! I haven't had time to make alot of friends out here in TX - so you're my best girlfriends and all that that entails! I also receive help & motivation to stay healthy.

2. What do you expect to add to the board by your participation? I wish I could add more, but sometimes I just am unable to post responses to posts. I hope to add little bits of support when I can. I also offer my love and friendship.

3. Do you feel you've gotten as much as you've given or are you feeling something is lacking? If so, what? It's OK to be blunt. We're big girls and we can take it. ;-) The only thing lacking is my participation sometimes. So I've received alot more than I have given.

4. What is one of your favorite things about the board? Yep, the fact that we can dish about so many different subjects; and while we may differ in opinions, that's ok with everyone. The humor on the board really helps de-stress me, too!

5. What is one of your least favorite things about the board? That I can't see your faces or hear your voices when we "talk"!

I'm sorry you had storm damage to your home, Margie! Those storms were extremely bad up your way, I heard. 70 mph winds!!!!

We still have homes without electricity here, too! I was fortunate to come thru it unscathed, myself, as some people in Longview suffered damage to homes and cars.

Hope the repairs go well for you.

Rhonda, you get alot more exercise in than I somedays!!!! Dr. Weil said gardening & walking are good!!! I think that you are a ball of energy that no one can hold down, to be honest!!! So don't ever think you fall short on the exercise!

I think what you wrote is very sweet - thanks for posting the questions and your lovely responses!

Love ya',

Kat

Loved your responses, Deb! You have helped me want to get back to WW by your motivation, I'll have you know! I enjoy your honesty & humor, too, BTW!!! Especially when you post that someone's on your "list" - my ds pretty much stayed on my sh** list during his 13th year, but I'm hoping his attitude shapes up (or my "list" is about to explode into pieces!!!).

Anyway, don't ever worry about not keeping up! We want you around any way we can get ya', as far as posting. Also, we all have different stages of "busyness" so we understand the workouts and the postings also have their frequencies. We're used to it as long as we know you're ok!

Hugs,

Kat

Margie the important thing is that you are alright. Everything else can be fixed. I just hope the damage is not too costly. You are in my thoughts!

Rhonda, I enjoy these Friday Fives so much that I'm doing it on a board I lead (I've known other boards to do it as well).
