One of    the women offered to find out the process of refining silver and get back to the group at their next Bible Study.  That week, the woman called a silversmith and made an appointment to  watch him at work. She didn't mention anything about the reason for  her interest beyond her curiosity about the process of refining  silver. As she watched the silversmith, he held a piece of silver over  the fire and let it heat up. He explained that in refining silver, one  needed to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where the flames  were hottest as to burn away all the impurities.The woman thought about   God holding us in such a hot spot; then she thought again about the   verse that says: "He sits as a refiner and purifier of silver."    She asked the silversmith if it was true that he had to sit there in  front of the fire the whole time the silver was being refined. The man  answered that yes, he not only had to sit there holding the silver,  but he had to keep his eyes on the silver the entire time it was in  the fire. If the silver was left a moment too long in the flames, it  would be destroyed. The woman was silent for a moment.  Then she asked  the silversmith, "How do you know when the silver is fully refined?"  He smiled at her and answered, Oh, that's easy -- when I see my image  in it." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If today you are feeling the heat of the fire, remember that God has  his eye on you and will keep watching you until He sees His image in&lt;br /&gt;you.     &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Life is a coin. You can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only  spend it once."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was sent to me by Pastor D. F.

This past week has been a Major Pain..........Literally.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I got what I thought was an ingrown hair last Monday or so and I thought by Wednesday I had taken care of it. By Friday It was a pretty good size pimple (boil) with no head. I tried to squeeze it like I usually do but it was a stubborn one. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;LOL&lt;/span&gt; BY Friday evening it was so sore I had a hard time sitting. (this on is on my inner thigh). I took a hot shower and soaked the boil for like 15 &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;mins&lt;/span&gt;., No luck. The heat must have made it spread cause within the hour it was twice the size as before and Very Warm now. and the redness was spreading. I had to do Sound for a Practice at my church for an hour and by time that was over more than half my inner thigh was red or shades of and extremely painful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I ended up in the Er on Friday night around 9PM. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;LOL&lt;/span&gt; it didn't seem to busy but by the time I got in the back, but 2 ambulances and almost 4 hours later back there, for a total 7 1/2 hours. I finally got the boil lanced. My thigh was red now from my inner top thigh to about 1 inch from my knee and almost halfway to the top and also around the under side also.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went in with what I thought was a boil and left with a Lanced Boil with Packing and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Cellulitis&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;The infection had spread so much that all of the red area was Definitely Inflamed and Very Sore to the touch. and ended up infected under my skin as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I had the Packing in there until Tuesday Afternoon.  Now comes the hard part, it seems.  How to get all the left over infection out of my leg.  I still have an approx. 3" diameter hard spot on my leg around the Lanced spot.  The Dr says the hardness is infection that is still in there and needs to drain. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's the painful part.  The Warm/Hot compresses are slow and definitely painful.  I don't think I can take a bath and soak it.  A shower is cool and Hot running water over it is OK but the Water doesn't hit it like I wish it did so that isn't very effective.  :(  :(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well if anyone reads this and has any suggestions please comment and let me know what they are.  I would MUCH appreciate it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I am done rattling on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God Bless U all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shorty G&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-7157331268015515500?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/7157331268015515500/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=7157331268015515500&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/7157331268015515500'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/7157331268015515500'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2007/03/boil-er-visit-and-lancing.html' title='THe Boil, THe ER Visit and The Lancing...........'/><author><name>Shorty Montes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Uq7N54PDRuI/TYVRcnbobzI/AAAAAAAAANw/0nedg6bREKU/s220/AI%2BStudent%2BID%2BHead%2BShot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17454678.post-2633107162794069913</id><published>2007-03-19T08:00:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-03-22T10:35:55.362-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Weigh In</title><content type='html'>Weigh in today Approx. 225 lbs &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had a abscess lanced over the weekend which in turn causes a lack of activity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lets see what next weeks weigh in turns out to be.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-2633107162794069913?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/2633107162794069913/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=2633107162794069913&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/2633107162794069913'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/2633107162794069913'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2007/03/weigh-in.html' title='Weigh In'/><author><name>Shorty Montes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Uq7N54PDRuI/TYVRcnbobzI/AAAAAAAAANw/0nedg6bREKU/s220/AI%2BStudent%2BID%2BHead%2BShot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17454678.post-474789942277634436</id><published>2007-03-10T22:53:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-03-10T22:54:59.455-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Weigh In Saturday 3/10/07</title><content type='html'>224.4 Lbs today UGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-474789942277634436?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/474789942277634436/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=474789942277634436&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/474789942277634436'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/474789942277634436'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2007/03/weigh-in-saturday-31007.html' title='Weigh In Saturday 3/10/07'/><author><name>Shorty Montes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Uq7N54PDRuI/TYVRcnbobzI/AAAAAAAAANw/0nedg6bREKU/s220/AI%2BStudent%2BID%2BHead%2BShot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17454678.post-9121877533346822999</id><published>2007-02-24T12:50:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-25T00:49:53.106-08:00</updated><title type='text'>2.24.07</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;I thought I was the only one Pissed off at myself. LOL Bob is also. I did so well last month and this month has been a FIGHT every STEP of THE Way...... I was really pissed yesterday when I stepped on the scale and It said 222.4 I saw that Last month. I don't know why I am having so many problems getting back down to where I was last month, and down Further this month. Less than a week to go and I am still above where I was ending last month. So my 5 lbs a month are shot. Well in the real sense they r not, but in my mind I should be close to 215 now and I am still at 221.2 this morning. That SUCKS. Well I just don't know what to do anymore. About the time I think about exercising, I get sick or try to get sick. I don't understand my body sometimes. I think it has it in for me sometimes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was originally a comment to Bob, but I ranted so much I decided to post it here instead.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SO today's official weigh in is 221.2.

I am just so stoked today that I can't help myself. I got an end of the month weigh in. I wasn't sure I wanted to do it cause I haven't been able to eat really good this past couple of days. SO i figured I would cheat a little. If it was a good weigh in I would record it and if it wasn't I still had 3 more days til my regular Friday Post. Well .............. (drum roll please.......)....................... I weighed in this AM at 220.4. That is a 8.4 lb loss for the month. I think I made my 5 lb loss. LOL LOL LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well now that I know I can do it. It is time to be Definitely Serious about this. I will never again see 221 in any way shape or form associated with me and a scale. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My Life Update. Someone told me last year around February, that tattooing would be addictive. Well I have done it again. Those of you that have followed my blog for a while, I wrote about my Sister that Passed Away. Well I got a rememberance tattoo for her. It is a flying Pig and is on my right thigh on the side.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_lNlgB3IR81o/RcDagCmkqtI/AAAAAAAAABk/OdKgs1xmHwE/s1600-h/My+Pig+Tattoo1.30.07.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5026257428134800082" style="WIDTH: 412px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 338px" height="287" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_lNlgB3IR81o/RcDagCmkqtI/AAAAAAAAABk/OdKgs1xmHwE/s320/My+Pig+Tattoo1.30.07.jpg" width="375" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also got my tongue pierced.

LOL Well last week didn't turn out as bad as it could have. I ate emotionally a lot last week. I weighed around Tuesday or Wednesday and I had gained back most of what I had lost for the MONTH. SO I buckled down except for a 2x2 brownie that jumped in front of me and begged that I eat it. ......... LOL ...................No really was stressed over a job interview and just buckled. But I got back to doing mostly right.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Had a hard time with my water last week for some reason. Don't know why. Am trying to be better this week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I did get some walking in, not much but enough to make my knee SERIOUSLY MAD at me for a few days. I went to the mall to meet my dad. When we had exchanged what I needed from him, he was gonna go walk to the food court to have lunch. I said I would walk with him. (No I was good, had just eaten not too long before, so I had a Diet Coke) Well he walks at a pretty good clip, so I had to keep up. After lunch I went into a few shops and then had to walk all the way back to my car. See my dad was smart and parked close to where he wanted to be. I parked close to where I had to meet him, LOL, at the other end of the mall AND some. Actually I parked past the end of the mall. There are a few stores in the Parking lot of the mall and that's where we met at first, and the Food Court is in the middle of the mall. LOL ............So if anyone is lost by now. It's OK I think I lost myself. LOL Let's say with all the walking I probably got in 2 blocks. Give or take a little. That's is about it.

Weigh in day was today and it wasn't bad. I was sick all last week and when I weighed in last friday I was 221.8. On Monday I weighed again just to see how I did once I was able to eat again and I was 223.4. Weigh in today was 222.4 that is less than a 1 lb gain from last friday but a 1 lb loss from Monday. Not bad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have eaten as much salad as I possibly can. I could have done better, but finances and everything. You have to eat what is available sometimes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next weeks goals are increase water intake and walk (even if in house with a timer) 3 times at least 15 mins each day. More would be good but to get started again 15 mins is the goal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well gonna close for now,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Update again later next week.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-1725066277682958788?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/1725066277682958788/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=1725066277682958788&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/1725066277682958788'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/1725066277682958788'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2007/01/friday-january-18-2007.html' title='Friday January 18, 2007'/><author><name>Shorty Montes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Uq7N54PDRuI/TYVRcnbobzI/AAAAAAAAANw/0nedg6bREKU/s220/AI%2BStudent%2BID%2BHead%2BShot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17454678.post-6470553257207380248</id><published>2007-01-18T18:26:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2007-01-18T18:28:55.689-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Photo Link</title><content type='html'>New Pics were posted on my Photo Conglomeration Page.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's the Link &lt;a href="http://sherrispics.blogspot.com/"&gt;http://sherrispics.blogspot.com/&lt;/a&gt;  If you want it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Weight update will be tomorrow.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-6470553257207380248?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/6470553257207380248/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=6470553257207380248&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/6470553257207380248'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/6470553257207380248'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2007/01/photo-link.html' title='Photo Link'/><author><name>Shorty Montes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Uq7N54PDRuI/TYVRcnbobzI/AAAAAAAAANw/0nedg6bREKU/s220/AI%2BStudent%2BID%2BHead%2BShot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17454678.post-4285862804204221307</id><published>2007-01-15T13:54:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-01-15T14:06:42.914-08:00</updated><title type='text'>New Year ........  New Goals...........  2007</title><content type='html'>OK Not sure who is keeping track of this blog anymore.  Last years goals sucked bad.  I ended up gaining back ALL that I had lost plus a couple of extra pounds along with them.  SO this years goals are easy and doable.  A loss of 5 lbs a month and at least 1 inch all around is my goal.  That would be a 60 lb loss and will put me at 168.  Not sure about the inches.  I weighed at the beginning of the year and I started at 228.8 So that is my yearly start weight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I haven't posted pics in a while, so I am gonna take pics soon.  Decided to do ones that actually show where I truly am at.  Sports Bra and shorts.  This link to the pics will be attached when I post them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last weeks weight was 221.6 that was a yearly loss of 7.6 lbs.  almost 5 lbs for last week in itself.  Even though I was sick and unable to eat 4 of those days.  LOL  So I am back to eating and gained 2 lbs over the weekend, but official weigh day isn't until Friday so I should be OK.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well til Friday then.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shorty G  AKA Sherri G&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-4285862804204221307?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/4285862804204221307/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=4285862804204221307&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/4285862804204221307'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/4285862804204221307'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2007/01/new-year-new-goals-2007.html' title='New Year ........

LOL  I went to my ex's place to listen to him about my youngest daughter and then let him know she doesn't want to live with him anymore.  So on my way I prayed that God keep my mouth in Check.  The thing I forgot to pray about was my attitude and actions.  LOL  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well he started cussing her and I told him that wasn't necessary and that she was moving back to my dad's place.  Well then he proceeded to kick me out of his place.  That was fine.  If I had just stayed out, but my daughter was still in there and he was still cussing her, so I opened the Apt door and told her to come on, and he slammed the door in my face.  I then Opened it again and he pushed me in my face out the doorway, before he could shut the door again I SLAPPED the SLOP out of him as hard as I could.  (now remember I am not a fighter really) He proceeded to try to grab me by my hair and pull me in the top of my hair is too short to grab so he got me by my Tail and pulled me in i think i hit him again and tried to grab at him.  I got a hold of his shorts as he slammed me to the ground.  I don't remember if he was hitting me or just trying to like crush me or what.  He eventually got off of me and threw me out of the Apt again.  I stayed out that time and called for a sheriff escort to get my daughters stuff out of the Apt.  My Middle daughter was in there with the youngest so I was concerned but not as much as I was P***ed Off.  I was so messed up that I gave the sheriff the wrong address even though I was reading it.  So it took them longer than I hoped.  The kids came out the youngest crying.  The sheriff didn't show and He had left so I left also.  While I was waiting for them my shoulder started getting sore.  And eventually couldn't hardly move it.  I went to the ER and they said (after 6 1/2 hours of waiting) that I separated the ligaments between my clavicle and my shoulder blade.  Nothing fractured and nothing out of socket.  That's good.  Unfortunately for Him (the Ex) They (ER) required me to file a sheriff Report.  And I found out He has a warrant.  OOPS on him. I haven't completed the report yet I am trying to give him a little time to finish some stuff, but I am gonna finish it tomorrow when I get home.  Yesterday wasn't a good day cause I was out of it most of the day.  And Today I am at my niece's place. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I am in a sling for comfort and pain pills (darvacet.....Good Stuff) every 4 hours as needed.  I went like 16 hours without meds today but I am paying for it now.  :(  a little more pain/sore then I would care to be feeling.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So that is the scoop on the shoulder situation.  Not sure if anyone will read this.  It feels a little better getting it out in the open at my pace.  Now I can keep going.  Just move on, with things.  Oh Yeah I am officially DONE with Him.  FOREVER&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for the support everyone.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-115587872069295753?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/115587872069295753/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=115587872069295753&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/115587872069295753'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/115587872069295753'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2006/08/ok-real-deal.html' title='OK The Real Deal..................'/><author><name>Shorty Montes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Uq7N54PDRuI/TYVRcnbobzI/AAAAAAAAANw/0nedg6bREKU/s220/AI%2BStudent%2BID%2BHead%2BShot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17454678.post-115522505543424650</id><published>2006-08-10T08:37:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-08-10T08:50:55.486-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Yesterdays Food Choices</title><content type='html'>Breakfast:&lt;br /&gt;1 serving Grits&lt;br /&gt;2 Eggo Waffles&lt;br /&gt;2 Tsp.

The blog world said I was tagged for spam and I had so many days to let them know it wasn't.  Wel I dont think I made the deadline.  Or they didn't believe me or something.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well as of 2 1/2 weeks ago.  I weighed in at 214.2  Ths isn't bad but I am a LITTLE upset at myself.  I haven't been eating right or exercising, but I was holding my own betweet 212 and 213, but 214 is NOT EVEN Funny. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well after having Pneumonia and being busier the Bill Gates I am going back to workout 2 days a week.  I am on Vacation for 4 more weeks and I figure I can lose something while the kids are gone.  I am trying now to pick ok stuff to eat.  Not much choice I have but I am making the best out of what I have.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I appreciate those who have looked for me, and I apologize for being gone so long.   But I am back.  I will be checking in at least 2 times per week and weighing in at least once a week.

I Have been busy with a death close to me &amp; getting this Prayer Blogg up and running. Well It is going very slowly so far, but It is up and running.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dieting has been going ok. Depending on how much Water I take in depends on what I weigh. Been bouncing between 3 lbs. But it is cool. I am getting Closer with God and realizing That He is everything. What I eat, My Attitude on how I see things and My All. This I think will push me more to keep up with the healthier eating.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those interested I have the Prayer Blogg up and running. The addy is &lt;a href="http://godsprayercloset.blogspot.com"&gt;http://godsprayercloset.blogspot.com&lt;/a&gt; Come check it out and see what you think. It is a little different that "I" had originally planned on it being. But this is the direction God has led me in so Away We (God &amp;amp; I) Go.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope whoever stops by, is Blessed by what you find and the peace of God that is there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I Love U ALL as Christ has Loved me,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shorty G&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-114374587159683507?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/114374587159683507/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=114374587159683507&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/114374587159683507'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/114374587159683507'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2006/03/its-finally-ready-prayer-blog-little.html' title='It&apos;s Finally Ready.........

I was doing my own thing I guess.  Been unfocused for a while now.  I think it was when I realized I couldn't afford the NS food anymore.  I just kind of said well forget it.  I mean not out loud or anything, but my attitude basically said that.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today March 19, 2006 I have gotten back on the wagon and done total good eating for the day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have made fairly ok choices while being off the wagon, but tired of feeling guilty and icky because I know what I need to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, a little update I have done some self evaluation lately.   I have realized the God is the center of my life (that I knew before), but I have a hard time giving Him the control of my life.  I mean I have had to do for me an mine for so long that I have had the control.  I know God has been there and had some control.  I mean the control I allowed Him to have.  But that was never TOTAL control.  I realized that I an scared to give up total control of my life.  I also know that until I do, God can not do in my life what He truly wants to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well Spending more time with Him and less time doing everything in the world is what I am working on doing on a minutely, hourly, daily basis.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Knowing that My relationship with God is not one that is gonna hurt me in any way.  Knowing and holding on to the remembrance that God does nothing but Love me Unconditionally.  I mean all of this is something I know and have known for most of my life but just don't do.  Most of the time things we say are easier said than actually done.  Whether we know it is better for us or not.  SO now I truly keep updated on this blog for accountability to my life and my weight loss.  And NO messing around anymore.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today I had no breakfast (pursae {okI cant spell}), at 2 PM I had NS scrambled eggs, cabbage and a string cheese stick.  Around 7 pm (after a much needed nap) I had an orange and a string cheese stick.  Around 10 PM was dinner;  NS Spinach &amp; cheese ravioli, Salad w/ LF Raspberry Balsamic vinaigrette , at least 2 veggies (probably close to 3) and unsweetened apple sauce.  Water wasn't the greatest, but that is coming along better also.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well it is after Midnight on Monday AM and I am finally getting sleepy.  So I better go for now. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am so sorry for being gone so long from all of my friends that I know stand behind me daily.  I am baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaccccccccccccckkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.   LOL  and ready to Fight for what I want DAILY.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love U all and Hope everyone has a good one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PS:  I talked a couple of months ago about starting a Prayer Blog.  I am almost ready to post the link for that blog.  I am conferring with someone else about this blog.  As soon as I have it running I will post the link so those that want to may visit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God Bless U All&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-114284529031634675?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/114284529031634675/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=114284529031634675&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/114284529031634675'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/114284529031634675'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2006/03/no-i-have-not-fallen-off-face-of-ns.html' title='NO I have NOT fallen off the face of the NS WORLD................LOL'/><author><name>Shorty Montes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Uq7N54PDRuI/TYVRcnbobzI/AAAAAAAAANw/0nedg6bREKU/s220/AI%2BStudent%2BID%2BHead%2BShot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17454678.post-114114425921310928</id><published>2006-02-28T07:52:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-02-28T08:30:59.270-08:00</updated><title type='text'>OK this is what I get for Blog Hopping ...............</title><content type='html'>And YES, I am Obedient.........LOL  I read the comments too.

I mean not making totally good choices but not bad ones either really I don't think. I mean the weight has been holding its own. Today's weight, 207.6. I will definitely take it. LOL That is awesome. I am 1.2 Lbs away from being 20 Lbs down. I am LOVING this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I started new again today. One more time of starting in the past couple of weeks. Let's see how far this one goes. Think I will shoot for the suggestion left by &lt;a href="http://emilyinaz.blogspot.com"&gt;Emily&lt;/a&gt; for &lt;a href="http://astrauser.blogspot.com"&gt;Amanda&lt;/a&gt; in here last post. That was a 14 day run. Just 14 days of eating right, well the exercise and stuff goes in there too. But just 14 days, 2 short weeks. I think I can do 2 weeks of Eating, Water and Exercise. Well I think I can. One Minute, One Hour, One Day at a time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have already started today off right. NS pancakes mixed w/ apple sauce instead of water, string cheese and 1 TBSP of reduced sugar Strawberry Jelly (or fruit spread, like it says on the bottle). LOL It's almost a "free" only 20 cals for 1 TBSP. LOL LOL I know not quite right??&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well on the Boy Friend front. I broke up with him. Some will understand me when I say we were not on the same or even close to the same level Spiritually. And I couldn't do it. We were together for just at a month (or just under a month) but it hurt like we had been together for years. Well I have moved on and am just living life as it comes and as God gives it to me. That is the safest way to do it now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I guess that is about it for now. I will try really hard to remember to come update each day of what I eat and how much water intake I have and exercise I do. Ok this is only 2 weeks, I CAN DO THIS!!!!!! REALLY!!!! LOL LOL LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well You all Take Care, and God Bless.

Also just as many asking about my friend. Well here goes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I met him through Yahoo Personals. He found me and I responded. We me that night and I realized He was a sweetheart. That was on Saturday January 28, 2006. On Wednesday or Thursday He asked me to be his girlfriend. I said yes. It has been so long since I have had a boyfriend it isn't even funny.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well we were inseparable the first couple of weeks. I had Church stuff to deal with so I came to stay at my dad's place. I think Charles is having withdrawals though. He sounds so lonely. :( Poor Guy. I just don't have the gas to run back and forth to the other side of town all the time.&lt;br /&gt;I know that sounds bad. :(&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next subject: LOL&lt;br /&gt;Weight Loss/Measurements&lt;br /&gt;Well I started January at 211 lbs, my measurements on January 3rd were; Bust: 49.5 Waist: 47 Hips: 52 Thighs: 30 Biceps: 13.5 &amp; Neck: 16.25&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Month ending (January) I weighed 208 lbs and My measurement on February 11th were Bust: 47.5 Waist: 46 Hips: 50 Thighs: 28 Biceps: 13. &amp;amp; Neck: 16.25. I was kind of bummed at the end of January cause I didn't make my weight loss goal, but I also knew that I hadn't really been 100% or even close to it. So I wasn't really trippin too bad. When I went to workout this past Saturday after the torture My trainer did the current months measurements. I was stoked then and so was he. I know it was from using the wetsuit during the day and also to workout in. He told me that Inches would come off faster than weight with the suit. I am way happy now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well the rest of my life is going pretty good. Seem a little Lost from God Lately not sure what that is. Just a strange Shift in the spiritual World. Or could just be me. I never know, But I do know I have heard others talking about things being different also. So maybe it isn't just me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I still haven't gotten the blogg up for prayer and prayer requests. I really want to devote a whole day or definitely quiet time for. I really want this place to be God's. And be Blessed by Him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I guess I have gone on long enough.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love U all and Hope to hear from you all soon. Ok I am still trying to figure out how to get in touch with some. Like Becca and I know Edith was having Troll troubles also. I have her email though. I hope Becca stops by and emails me so I can email her. OK Becca email me girl. &lt;a href="mailto:shortyg1964@gmail.com"&gt;shortyg1964@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am Outtie All, Have a good one and God Bless&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shorty G AKA Sherri G&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-113987664582628877?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/113987664582628877/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=113987664582628877&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/113987664582628877'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/113987664582628877'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2006/02/just-seems-like-another-day.html' title='Just seems like another day...........'/><author><name>Shorty Montes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Uq7N54PDRuI/TYVRcnbobzI/AAAAAAAAANw/0nedg6bREKU/s220/AI%2BStudent%2BID%2BHead%2BShot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17454678.post-113926737290144731</id><published>2006-02-06T14:42:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-02-06T16:39:36.040-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Ok I Have Finally Done IT....................</title><content type='html'>For the past 4 years or so I have talked about getting a tattoo. Wasn't sure what I wanted and was more scared that it would HURT majorly. (yep, you guessed it....I have NO pain TOLERANCE!!!). Well 2 of my kids went to get tattoos done on them last week and I started thinking about it again. I started playing with some sketches. Hearts and crosses are my collector things. What I really Like. So I started with one heart and made it into 2 hearts that linked together. Then I played around with the initials and where to put them. I have 3 girls of my own and One daughter that has adopted me. So I was debating on whether to include her initials in the design or not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I made an appointment for yesterday and went. The final design is 2 hearts that link together. My oldest daughter's initial "PAG" is in the far left heart (if u r facing me), My middle daughter "ANG" is in the linked part, and my youngest daughter "JGG" is in the far right heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well OK here is the Pic of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1121/1651/1600/Image018[1].jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1121/1651/320/Image018%5B1%5D.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; OK a decent shot this is it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1121/1651/1600/Image017[1].jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1121/1651/320/Image017%5B1%5D.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Up Close and Personal&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It didn't hurt HALF as bad as I thought it was going to. Felt like a razor blade during the outline part. (that is the initial drawing part). For the most part the rest of the color in was numb. It looks good and is on my mid right thigh.  Just low enough to be ok and just high enough to be covered up by my shorts during summer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok that is all for that right now. I may think about getting ONE more. My Youngest got a heart with Jesus Name through it and colored in red. It looks way cool I may get that one next and last. Not sure............&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the diet point of view. I am doing pretty good. I am down to 209.8 as of today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Haven't been real good with the eating part and almost nonexistent on the exercise, but I am still losing and I am ok with that. Started back kind of today. Well one meal at a time huh??&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for bearing with me and not blogging lately.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I met someone last week and we have been seeing each other everyday since a week ago Last Saturday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well off to start cleaning up again............Talk again soon&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shorty G............

My trainer was at a Kings game last night so I worked my legs and went home.  Was gonna do my walking video when I got here but that didn't happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am gonna walk today though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not sure what else to put here............  LOL   So much jumping off lately.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;New weight goals are to lose 35 lbs by the end of the &lt;a href="http://slimitdown.blogspot.com"&gt;Under Construction&lt;/a&gt; Challenge.  That will put me at 175 by June end.  I am WAY cool with that.  It equals out to about 5 lbs a month.  Which is very doable.  ONEDERLAND HERE I COME!!!!!!!!!!   LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know I never did write down my resolutions or my goals for the year.  I plan on doing that this week and having it posted by next Monday I Hope.  Please bug me about this if I dont. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I kow a few so far, Like losing at least 5 lbs a month for the year. (if I can do that I will have lost 50 lbs for the year)  Another one is to stick with workout.  My trainer &amp; I were talking, If my knee tries to blow, then we will just tape the puppy and ease up a little for a while.  I dont think that is  gonna happen though.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well this is actually ending on Wednesday Morning so I am gonna end this now and Update food and exercise tonight (Wednesday).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a good one all and Hey what is going on with the Meeting Plan??

Frustration I guess. LOL  OK that is it FRUSTRATION...................&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am so frustrated today.  I mean there are good things going on in my life also but, today is just one of those days.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First the frustration then the rest of my life.  I get up and since today is Wednesday and I Minister on the Sound Board today.  I get myself and my Gr Niece dressed and ready to go.  So we get to the car and are getting in and I realize that my middle daughter forgot to put the car seat back in the back seat when she used the car the other night.  Ok I think it is in the trunk.  Now I am already running a little late, but it will be ok.  Just get the car seat in and buckled in (lucky for me the clip is still on the seat belt).  So I Pop the trunk and NO CAR SEAT!!!!!!!!!  NO WHERE in there.  I looked in the back seat again just to make sure it wasn't on the other side upside down or something.  NOPE  NOT THERE!!!!!!!!!  OK just call my daughter and she will let me know where she put it............  But her being the NIGHT OWL she was bred with (I swear).  She is not answering her phone, and neither is her boyfriend.  GRRRRRRRRR  Well I thought maybe she put it in the garage the night she used the car..............NOPE not there either........  OK 4 calls to her back to back HOPING she will wake up...........NOPE on that count too.  So I go back in the house and now have to call church and see if the Associate Pastor can run the Sound Board for me as I can not leave the house.  At least not in the car.  LOL  (Lucky No Emergency Has Happened that I HAVE to GO somewhere.)  So I left her a SERIOUSLY not nice message (no cussing but Just short of it).  So now I am here and Little i am not sure if conscientiously tries to drive me NUTS today. It is rainy and yucky out and not a good day to go outside.   So now I sit with my Christian music on and she has had lunch and is now napping.  Thank You Lord!!!!  LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OK for the rest of my life.  I am not sure when I blogged last so an update from last Thursday.  Thursday was My Youngest daughters Bday.  She was 17.  I was online that evening in a Yahoo chat room and met someone in the room.  We talked for a while and he asked me for my number.  Suprisingly I gave it to him.  He said he would call me the next day after he got off work.  I thought yeah right probably like the others and will never call.  LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A bigger surprise came Friday around 12:45 PM, I got a phone call from him.  We talked on the phone for about half an hour.  That was cool.  He almost hung up though at first.  I forgot to let him know my voice was low.  Sometimes I sound like a guy on the phone.  I have had guys not talk to me because I sounded the way I did and they didn't believe I was who I said I was.  LOL  Ok so back to my friend........... LOL..........  We have talked on the phone everyday since Friday.  :-D  He is from India, but lives here in San Jose, CA.  It is a miracle LOL  someone that wants to talk to me that is actually in the US an a PLUS he is in the state and fairly close by.  We are meeting this coming Monday.  We are driving half way to meet.  So neither of us has too far to drive.  We are going to go to lunch (yes I will be good in eating) and then a movie.  I am so excited to meet him.  I really hope this turns out to be a cool friendship.  I really need to see that there are men out there interested in me (and not having other motives for being interested) for me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the diet front.  I am in 2 different challenges right now.  I feel like I am going crazy trying to keep up with both.  The hardest one of the 2 is the 100% challenge.  I just have a hard time being 100% in everything.  Food, Water and Exercise.  I only made 4 days since Jan 4th start date.  Not too bad but not great either.  On the Under Construction Challenge I am doing ok, but I haven't been to the site and commented to anyone lately.  I am TRULY sorry ALL.  I am thinking about backing out of the 100% challenge.  i just cant keep up with so much.  And I can stay as best 100% with you all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I weighed in yesterday and was at 210.4 lbs.  The weight is slowly coming off.  My workout got more intense last week.  And stupid me I missed last night for the Abs.....DOHHHHHHHHH  I got my legs in but not Abs.  So I go back on Thursday and Saturday.  DEFINITELY.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well think I am gonna close this for now and stay consistent with blogging here and linking it to the Under Construction Site.  I love that group.  :)  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well you all have a good one &amp; God Bless&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shorty G&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-113701498913055123?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/113701498913055123/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=113701498913055123&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/113701498913055123'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/113701498913055123'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2006/01/frustration.html' title='FRUSTRATION..................'/><author><name>Shorty Montes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Uq7N54PDRuI/TYVRcnbobzI/AAAAAAAAANw/0nedg6bREKU/s220/AI%2BStudent%2BID%2BHead%2BShot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17454678.post-113650033325532339</id><published>2006-01-05T14:13:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-05T14:32:13.300-08:00</updated><title type='text'>A crazy day......................</title><content type='html'>Today is a little crazy so far.

LOL so I get up last night around 3:25 AM and when I just get laid back down, Someone comes online and buzzes me.  :(  I was a little annoyed that someone would buzz me in the middle of the night.  I answered the message and let him know I was sleeping.  But I stayed and talked to him for a little bit.  He ended up having just the right scriptures and the right words to touch me in a way that I get myself back on track with Life.  He said HE was woke up early and didn't know who the Word was for until he got online and started talking to me.. THANK U LORD!!!!    SOOOOOOOOO  NOW THAT I AM BACK.  I am so ready for the next challenge.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now for today's Food and Weight Check In:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;211.0 Lbs for today 12/31/05&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Breakfast:  NS Scrambled w/ Peppers, Cheese Stick, Redicup Applesauce&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lunch:   NS Cream of Broccoli,  Salad w/ FF Thousand, Light Harvest Peach Yogurt&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Snack:  Cheese Stick, Apple Slices&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dinner:   NS Spinach Ravioli, Salad w/ FF Thousand, Green beans w/ 1 Tbs Butter (fat)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dessert:  NS Nutricrunch Chocolates&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Water Intake:  I will have in at least 2  to 3 quarts by time I go to bed.

(I think)</title><content type='html'>Well I am not really sure what I am today.  So badly I want to give up on dieting, life, relationships the whole nine yards. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bad emotion day for me today.  I was touched so much by what &lt;a href="http://thisbobsworld.blogspot.com/2005/12/impasse.html"&gt;Bob&lt;/a&gt; said the other day.  I was so touched that I was not the only one feeling like that, and also scared that He may really quit.  It just got me to thinking.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I mean I sit here today really messed up emotionally.  I am tired of being alone.  I am tired of dieting, but also tired of being fat.  I am tired of life in general I think.  The alternative to all of this is.........  Well #1 digging a hole and crawling in for about ............hmmmmmmmmmmm ............The rest of my life.( NOT AN OPTION!!).  #2 Quitting everything, including life.................(Not an option either).  Or #3  Just trying to deal with the day and maybe crying myself into a stupor. (The only one that is actually doable).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know I get lonely like this sometimes, but I don't remember being this bad in a LONG time.  Even after I got scammed and found out Shaun was Fake.    I do get down in the dumps sometimes also and just want to change or give up. But that doesn't happen either, I just get over it.  And Tired of being fat is what caused me to start NS on the first place.  &lt;br /&gt;The part I am having so many troubles with lately is that all of these emotions don't usually hit me all at once.  They like the aches and pains I have daily, usually take turns and only hit one at a time.  Lately I have been SPECIAL.  ALL AT ONCE!!  And it is driving me BONKERS!!!!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I will just have to figure out how to deal with it in an OK way.  Get into my WORD (Bible) today, Get before God and rest in Him for a while, or Have a good CRY and then Get before God for comforting and rejuvenation.  Any or all of the above are good options.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think I messed up on my dieting so much with weight fluxuation that I didn't think I could make it to my 205 goal for the end of the year.  Or even come close to it.  I am at 211.8 today and just 6.8 lbs to go to make that 205.  Just 1.2 lbs a day for the next 4 days.  And LOTS of H2O.   So any and ALL of u can keep me in check and accountable for this loss.  The closer I get to my mini goals the more I end up sabotaging myself.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So no more cheating on my NS diet, No more thinking about relationships, and no more Mulling over how messed up life is.  JUST KICK MYSELF IN THE BUTT AND KEEP GOING!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok so as of today I am at 211.8 Lbs  ( I said that already.......LOL)  SO I just have 6.8 lbs to go.  So THIS TIME FOR REAL!!, I am gonna log everything that passes these LIPS and goes in the mouth.   Will update later on the array of ONLY NS diet stuff I eat.  LOL..............Even though I REALLY want some of those chips on top of the Fridge.     OK I know STEP AWAY FROM THE FRIDGE!!!!    Luckily I am still blogging here...........LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well Off to figure out what is for lunch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks Sue for being concerned and asking for this blog today or I may not have done it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I have babbled on enough and I feel MUCH better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God Bless U ALL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sherri G&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-113588988177389385?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/113588988177389385/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=113588988177389385&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/113588988177389385'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/113588988177389385'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2005/12/i-am-ok-you-all-i-think.html' title='I AM OK You All!!!

It is always a good day when I wake up lighter than I was last week. It is only 8:25 AM and my final weigh in is around 10:30 (the time I started weighing when I first started this diet, so I stick with it) but first step is 212.8. Which means all the bad choices I made over the weekend and especially yesterday, didn't hurt me too bad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On Saturday I went to Fellowship Gumbo party for another churches singles ministry. It was cool. I don't do parties really, but the minister of your Ministry asked me and a couple of other people to go with him and represent our ministry so I said yes. When we arrived I asked him if he knew the ones hosting the party. He said NO. My stomach almost flipped out of my body. So scenario: I was going to a party, (I don't do parties), and The Minister I went with didn't know anyone there. LOL I told him if he felt like someone was attached to him, They were. LOL So I did what I do best in parties. I found a chair and sat and talked to the other lady that came with us. (I thought I was bad. I looked over at her a couple of times and finally had to tell her to breathe. LOL It looked like she was just sitting there holding her breath.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once I got inside and was there for a few minutes I realized it was ok. Atmosphere was nice. They had jazz music going and was peaceful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I finally had to get out of my chair cause the slightest bit of stress my system feels lately (with everything else happening) I get wheezy and will end up in a full blown asthma attack if I don't catch it early. So I had to venture to find my jacket, and then find an out of the way place to hit the dumb thing. LOL restroom was the best place away from people, of course I had to open my mouth and ask where that was. Which kind of helped me get more relaxed. LOL the inhaler helped to. It makes me hyper and full of energy when I hit it correctly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well the Gumbo was done and the first bowl I saw come out had a big piece of Crab on it. (now the function cost $10 to come to, to help with the price of the Gumbo I guess) Yep and Guess What??? LOL I cant have crab. LOL There wouldn't be enough inhalers in the world to stop the asthma attack that comes on. So I asked if there was one with out crab, and they had made a small pot of one with no seafood, just meat. So I went that way. A bowl of rice and meat gumbo and of course cracklin cornbread and punch. Not very diet wise, but I almost knew that when I said yes to coming. I wasn't very good with my water either. I think I got 1 quart in all day, I THINK. I was good for dinner. I had a light yogurt and a small head of fried cabbage. (fried in olive oil, my fat for the day) and a sugar free jello for later. Ok something I ate that day was free of calories or little cals. LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sunday consisted of Church. Another hard day for diets. I woke up late and forgot to bring my breakfast so I am at the store thinking, What can I eat and still basically stay on track. So I chose 2 light yogurts for the protein and a banana for my fruit. Not bad I don't think. I have found that Harvest Peach light yogurt is the kick. Now lets see how long it takes to see if I am allergic to yogurt still. Will find out soon I guess. I cant have milk and not much ice cream cause I get bronchial pneumonia if i eat or drink it. I do push my luck on ice cream but I know my limit and when I can have it. I don't even think about ice cream of I am not feeling well or have been sick. My immune system is down too low and I don't even chance it. Now I wonder if I should treat yogurt the same.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OK I know I got off track. (Now you know why I don't write much. I am choppy and go all over the place.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So back to Sunday. I had a wedding to do Sound for, and of course there was a reception afterwards. So I go and food was there of course. (I was good this time and took my water in with me.) So they had salami and cream cheese wrapped in tortillas and a veggie bowl and onion dip and cut up bbq hot dogs. Oh yeah and fake crab. So I had a little of each and a lot of veggies. Then there was the cake. LOL MMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmm!!!! LOL It was a vanilla, chocolate swirl topped with caramel and cool whip. Boy!!! Was it good. :) so i drank 2 quarts of water before I even left there. Ok so anything after this water was all extra. When I got back to my nieces place I felt like I was hungry (kind of), not that I could have been after all that eating. So I had 2 ladles of homemade stew and a big salad. Later I had a jello for a snack and around midnight I had my NS desert. (for the first time in forever).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well that was the extent of my weekend. All in all I had a good time. I did 2 things I don't like to do. One was the Singles Fellowship where I didn't know anyone except those I went with, and second was going to a place by myself. (oh yeah, I don't like to go out to parties or any place like that by myself, don't know why) It is really time to get myself out of the shell I have been living in and get myself out there a little. OK something I am working on little by little.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I have caught everyone up on my weekend and it wasn't that hard this time. LOL Didn't take me half as long as it usually does. So the final weigh in is in like an hour away, so I will update here what the outcome was.

It feels like it should be Next Wednesday already.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well the scale Gods are looking fondly down on me lately. LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The scales are slowly going down. Really helps that I am eating More like I should be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On Monday I weighed 215&lt;br /&gt;Tuesday I was at 214&lt;br /&gt;Wednesday I was at 213.2 (do we see a pattern here??.........LOL)&lt;br /&gt;Thursday (today) I am at 212.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am back on the eating track and the water track also. I went to work out on Tuesday and still am sore from the workout. I need to try to squeeze in another workout this Saturday. That way I am not so sore again on Tuesday when I was supposed to go back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I am doing pretty good with eating today. I had lunch with my dad at CoCo's. I had a Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad (no croutons), Italian Dressing (on the side) and a bowl of Cream of Broccoli Soup. Oh yeah 3 packets of crackers. Almost forgot those......LOL I am up 2 almost 3 glasses of water and only a quart &amp;amp; a half to go.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dinner will be a little late tonight so I need to plan snack somewhere in between. I also need to start remembering Dessert. I don't think I have remembered that in about 2 weeks now. I know BAD ME..........LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;An update on everything. LOL the guy the never showed up says he is coming to fix everything before Christmas. LOL (U notice I am not holding my breath on this one). I told him if he wanted to prove he was for real he needed to come here in person and figure out what went wrong. Well Like I said I am not holding my breath waiting for him to come. I also told him NOTHING could be like it was. He could only hope for friendship possibly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Home life is pretty good. I need to figure out how to find another job that I can work from home with. Any suggestions anyone??&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well now that I have basically caught everyone up. I will close this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a good one and Danielle if you need to u can email me for any questions u have.

I forgot to do that today............LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I didn't even remember til I was reading Bob's Blog and he mentioned he lost 3 lbs this week. I almost hit myself. I am so dense today.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well the low down on my life lately.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been doing pretty good on the weight loss thing. I mean holding my own I guess. I keep bouncing back and forth between 2 lbs. I mean I cheat and they come back and then I am good and they go away. LOL the yo yo effect. LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I went to the movies on Saturday and saw The Chronicles of Narnia, The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. It was AWESOME. I need to go back again to see the parts I missed. The hazards of going to the movies with a 3 yr old. LOL&lt;br /&gt;For my meal planing that day I didn't fair well, I had a double quarter pounder before we went and there I had a bag of M&amp;M's and shared a popcorn with my niece. I had my NS breakfast and a LARGE Salad with Grilled Steak for dinner. No soda at the movies. OOPS..... That would be a couple of sips from my Gr. Nieces.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On Sunday I went out to eat with my oldest daughter and her boyfriend. IHOP is my weakness. A Big Steak omelet was the lesser of a few evils. Yes I stayed away from the gravy. Good for me. Bad me though, I ate most of the omelet and about a pancake and a half. I had baked orange chicken and white rice last night for dinner. My mistake was I had no veggies or salad all day yesterday. And I don't think the veggies in the omelet counted. LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So today I am back on track basically. I had white rice and yogurt and cantaloupe for breakfast. A 1/2 can of chicken noodle soup a salad and string cheese for lunch and not sure what dinner is yet. I am hoping for Cabbage, Spinach reviles and a LARGE Salad again. I have got to remember snack and dessert everyday. Half the time I forget. Maybe that is my weight yo yo effect problem. LOL and my munching and cheating............LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well my stress level is on the high side with all the mess going on over here with the online guy. Which has kicked my asthma in A LOT lately. But I am working on that situation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I guess I have blabbed enough and I will go ahead and post this blogg.  I am still trying to figure out how to post a link to my daughter's (adopted) birthday party, and the cake fight. It is in powerpoint presentation. If any one knows please let me know.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;GOD BLESS and Have A Good One.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sherri G&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-113442882111670256?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/113442882111670256/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=113442882111670256&amp;isPopup=true' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/113442882111670256'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/113442882111670256'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2005/12/another-day-another-weigh-in-day.html' title='Another day,  another weigh in day..............................'/><author><name>Shorty Montes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Uq7N54PDRuI/TYVRcnbobzI/AAAAAAAAANw/0nedg6bREKU/s220/AI%2BStudent%2BID%2BHead%2BShot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17454678.post-113435158401052446</id><published>2005-12-11T17:39:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-12-27T23:55:21.253-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Test Pic</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/hello/137/8187/1024/sherri8.05.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="BORDER-RIGHT: #006600 2px solid; BORDER-TOP: #006600 2px solid; MARGIN: 2px; BORDER-LEFT: #006600 2px solid; BORDER-BOTTOM: #006600 2px solid" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/hello/137/8187/400/sherri8.05.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-113435158401052446?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/113435158401052446/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=113435158401052446&amp;isPopup=true' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/113435158401052446'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/113435158401052446'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2005/12/test-pic.html' title='Test Pic'/><author><name>Shorty Montes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Uq7N54PDRuI/TYVRcnbobzI/AAAAAAAAANw/0nedg6bREKU/s220/AI%2BStudent%2BID%2BHead%2BShot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17454678.post-113388936781141586</id><published>2005-12-06T09:16:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-12-06T09:57:33.780-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Interesting day today.............</title><content type='html'>I sit here and try to compile all of everything that is going on in my life right now. And not really sure what to tell and what not to. So here is some of the skinny. (I know I am a day late. But I did try this yesterday and it all got jumbled up inside me.) So here goes.........&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The guy that was supposed to come has not and I am not even sure he is coming. Right now the way I feel that is fine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A word of warning and I know people tell us this all the time, but until you have experienced it you always say, "It won't happen to me." Well, don't trust anyone with money except in cash in front of you. NO ONE!!!   Especially those over the internet.  That is all I am gonna say on that one. And I will leave it alone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My weight loss is doing pretty good. I was down to 211 yesterday. The scale gave me 210.6 once but I never saw it again, so I took the 211. That is cool with me. I just need to get better at my water, ALL of my food and exercising a little at least. I may start charting my exercise here and what I am eating. AND my water intake.....LOL     If I have to put it here maybe I will do it. And it wont go down here if I haven't done it. Starting today I will do that. At least there will be something here daily. LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I never would have thought I would be writing in a blog as an adult. LOL   I used to hate writing. But as I get older, it really helps to journal. I mean I do to an extent with Me and God, but it isn't consistent. Kind of like this one. But maybe if I can be consistent with this one I can get in the right place with that one too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SO today I am starting to go to my trainer in the evening. And am gonna try to start my own workout stuff at home. I need help with my abs from him, but I can work my legs &amp; most of my arms myself .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So off I go. I hope this catches some of you up. It will also help me to stay focused for this challenge. Oh yeah. I have also adjusted my weight goal by New Years. I am shooting for 205. That should be fairly easy now since I am almost there already, but anything under that is all gravy........LOL good choice of words huh?? At least I didn't say Mashed Potatoes &amp;amp; Gravy............LOL LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I want to learn a few of the tricks of the link world in this thing. If anyone is willing to help out I would much appreciate it. And how do you all get those charts on here. I just don't get that one either.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well this is WAY longer than I thought it was gonna be and I thank you all for stopping by and checking this out. Please comment or sign my guest book if you stop by.  I know I am inconsistent but that is gonna change today. I will update later on the food, water and exercise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God Bless Everyone and Have a good one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sherri G&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-113388936781141586?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/113388936781141586/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=113388936781141586&amp;isPopup=true' title='9 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/113388936781141586'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/113388936781141586'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2005/12/interesting-day-today.html' title='Interesting day today.............'/><author><name>Shorty Montes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Uq7N54PDRuI/TYVRcnbobzI/AAAAAAAAANw/0nedg6bREKU/s220/AI%2BStudent%2BID%2BHead%2BShot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>9</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17454678.post-113376435691554404</id><published>2005-12-04T22:32:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-12-04T22:32:37.086-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Complete Blogg Tomorrow..............I Promise Promise</title><content type='html'>OK I know I have been bad.

We have been talking for almost 3 months now and he's finally coming. So I thought. Well He was supposed to call me from Minneapolis when he got in and he didn't. I kept thinking he got tied up in customs and was rushing to catch his connector flight. So I went to the airport and no friend. I was disappointed at first and then when I talked to the woman at the ticket desk I got really pissed off. (sorry for those who don't hear me talk like that). I left there and feel sorry for my youngest daughter, cause I tend to speed a lot when I am mad. I came home and was fuming for a while. Then praying and asking why?? I never did get anything. Well I never heard from him all night (or all day). Well I sent an email that wasn't very nice . (no cussing but very hurt in it). I get a message from his brother around midnight. Saying he had problems with immigration in Austria. Things got messed up and he couldn't call or message me yet. That I should hear from him soon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At 5:30 AM I get him on my messenger explaining all that happened. Was a BIG mess up with the agency he used to get the plane ticket. Had to call back to states to his boss and everything. The mess is going to take a few extra days to get straight.   Bummer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really had to apologize to him for the harsh email. And he apologized for other things. We are cool now. He is still coming. And I definitely am not going to airport til he calls me from the states. LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well thanks all for listening to me babble. Thought I would catch some people up on what was happening. I was getting questions about how things went.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well blogg again tomorrow about how the day went.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have Great Thanksgiving to ALL, &amp;amp; God Bless&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sherri G&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-113277309923789479?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/113277309923789479/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=113277309923789479&amp;isPopup=true' title='9 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/113277309923789479'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/113277309923789479'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2005/11/ok-update-of-update-from-yesterday.html' title='Ok update of Update from Yesterday/ Last night'/><author><name>Shorty Montes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Uq7N54PDRuI/TYVRcnbobzI/AAAAAAAAANw/0nedg6bREKU/s220/AI%2BStudent%2BID%2BHead%2BShot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>9</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17454678.post-113269208887646047</id><published>2005-11-22T12:41:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-11-22T23:53:42.133-08:00</updated><title type='text'>OK I only seem to be averaging once a week here...................  :(  :(</title><content type='html'>I just can't get myself to blog at a halfway decent pace. Either once a week or maybe if I am lucky twice. Well here is the update between last Wednesday and now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was MAJOR sick last week. Sore throat and headache, cough and all. Well I wasn't good on my food plan at that time either, but come Thursday afternoon on. I was very good. Got in most of my water those days and started feeling better. I actually made it to church on Sunday, kind of had to it was my day to minister for the Sound Board. Very interesting to do when your hearing is still all in a tunnel. LOL Luckily for me one of the other guys on the Team thought it was his weekend and helped me out. Still didn't feel 100% on Sunday but chilled and didn't do a whole lot more. Plenty of sleep on Sunday and woke up Monday feeling PRETTY GOOD. Whoopee!!!! Its about time!! Well last week I was talking to my special friend online and He is finally coming to visit. FINALLY!!! He has been trying to get here since we met in August. He has had all kinds of obstacles to hurdle over. But he is coming finally. At least I think he is. LOL I haven't heard from him yet and his plane landed in the states at 10:37AM PST. But his flight doesn't leave Minneapolis until until 3:17PM PST. He is due here at 7:09PM. This is going to be interesting. I met him online almost 3 months ago. We have been talking almost every day since then. I mean every day we could between his work schedule and mine and sleeping for the both of us. LOL a 8 - 9 hour time difference didn't help either. When I was awake he was sleeping mostly and when he was awake I was sleeping. LOL that was interesting. Well things finally got finished and fixed and he is headed here for at least a week. Just in time for the Thanksgiving Holiday. This is awesome. Well I really am getting jittery with the time getting closer so maybe I will go take a nap and try to sleep some of the time away. LOL I thought my stomach was doing flip flops yesterday. Today seems to be worse. Bigger butterflies I think today and not really hungry either, even though I thought I was starving. LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well gonna end this and update later tonight or tomorrow on how things went.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for all the support and comments you all leave. I really love to read for others. God Bless U all&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sherri G&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11:52PM  UPDATE:&lt;br /&gt;Well I think I am stupid or something.  He didn't show or call. I guess the joles on me this time, as always.  LOL oh well.  Well thanks for listening you all.&lt;br /&gt;Sherri G&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-113269208887646047?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/113269208887646047/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=113269208887646047&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/113269208887646047'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/113269208887646047'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2005/11/ok-i-only-seem-to-be-averaging-once.html' title='OK I only seem to be averaging once a week here...................  :(  :('/><author><name>Shorty Montes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Uq7N54PDRuI/TYVRcnbobzI/AAAAAAAAANw/0nedg6bREKU/s220/AI%2BStudent%2BID%2BHead%2BShot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17454678.post-113216295137360906</id><published>2005-11-16T09:42:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-11-16T09:42:31.410-08:00</updated><title type='text'>How to recover from a kicker cold and still stay on track...........................</title><content type='html'>Ok this is officially day 3 of a kicker cold I have.

I mean I can recall when someone is talking about an incident, but I can not pull up the whole story in my memory. So I figured I would blog about the one person in my life that I learned a lot from. Now if you feel sadness from this blogg I am sorry. And if I ramble on Please Forgive Me, but I have not really talked about my sister with anyone except my niece since she has passed away.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SO Here Goes............... This is about My Sister, Her name is Ann.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Early on in life, I was probably 5 yrs old I remember Ann helping me clean my room so I wouldn't get in trouble from my mom. She would show me, and help me put things away and in their places so it looked nice. I remember her always being around. My Niece says she was Miss Betty Crocker homemaker. She was always showing us that things could be done. Cooking, baking, just in general being there. (I don't remember my mom doing that. I mean she did but I was always told to get out of the kitchen. Hardly ever allowed to watch.) the best times for my sister was when she was baking cookies. Chocolate Chip at that............... LOL Yes they are my MAJOR WEAKNESS!!!!! I Loved (ok still LOVE) to eat the cookie dough from the bowl. I remember disappearing into the kitchen when she was baking a batch. Now the make up of the house I grew up in. The living room was on the other side of the wall from the kitchen. So when I would disappear into the kitchen, Ann would ask me what I was doing after a couple of minutes. And ALWAYS I would try to play it off by telling her I was getting a drink or something else. But invariably I had a mouthful of cookie dough. "Sherri GET OUT of the cookie dough and OUT of the kitchen." she would tell me. Then back I would go again after the next batch was in. I would either be stealing cookie dough, or a nice hot cookie. I always wondered how she had any cookies left for anyone else after I had made my trips to the kitchen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I was 7 yrs Old, I remember I was sick and my mom came in my room first thing in the morning and told me I had a Birthday Present. June 1, is the day if you wanted to know). I was excited, and asked for it. She said it was still at the hospital, that Ann had had her baby. I was disappointed, I told her I didn't want that. LOL Who wants a niece on their birthday as a kid. LOL That was the best gift Ann could have given me. I Love My niece, her name is Melissa. Later I remember going on Vacation with my family and stopping at my sisters place in TX. That was cool, until night time. I Remember when the lights were off, looking at the floor and telling my niece the floor was moving. We turned back on the lights and it was HUGE cockroaches. EWWWWW.......... They seemed like the size of my hand, I doubt it though. Later when I was 13 I got to go visit her for a summer, well 3 weeks. I had a blast. There I saw her in action. Keeping up a house and cooking and caring for her kids. Her ex-husband was a jerk, I thought. (Well he still is, but that is a totally different subject). He was in the Armed Forces and I remember her cooking all afternoon so dinner would be ready when he came home. She would serve him first. That is the right thing to do. But he would be totally finished eating before she could get the next person served. I thought that was wrong even then, I asked her about it, but she never said a word, if I recall correctly she said don't worry about it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now she had 3 kids, My niece Melissa (born on my birthday), my nephew Willie, and my niece Shana.&lt;br /&gt;A few years later she left him and came to live back home with my mom &amp; I. That was cool, I liked it when she was around.&lt;br /&gt;I came home from school one day and my nephew Willie was gone and my sister was upset and beat up a little (she had a tear in her ear lobe and, cracked ribs and a lump behind her ear; she was always complaining that it hurt). Her ex-husband had come over taken him from her (of course there was a BIG struggle) and left. Now they weren't divorced yet. I remember there were times when she would have to go back to Texas to go to court about this matter. She never stopped fighting to get him (Willie) back. After a while I guess she had exhausted the court system but she had said that the court had awarded Willie to his father. YUCK that was sucky.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A couple of years later I remember her being in the hospital and not knowing if she was going to make it. I found out she had Thyroid Cancer. That lump behind her ear that she had been complaining about was cancerous previous to the fight with her ex-husband. She had to have her Thyroids removed. A year or so after that she had surgery again, the cancer had spread to her chest but the Dr's couldn't do the whole surgery at one time. She had to recover from the Throid Surgery before they could remove the rest of the cancer. That one really scared me. I REALLY didn't think she was going to make it. She did though.&lt;br /&gt;We had the getting High incident and all and just other memories of her come back. Through out the years I remember always keeping in touch and visiting. We always talked about how the cancer was doing and how she was feeling. She had gone into remission for a LONG time. One day she told me the Dr's found a spot of cancer, and SWORE me to secrecy. She began telling the family through out the year. I remember she was really weak at thanksgiving. She was very uncomfortable that day. She didn't make it to Christmas. She died of complications about 2 weeks before. We had her Home Going service, I found out my brother led her to the Lord before she died. And then the burial, she was cremated and laid to rest in a Pig Cookie Jar. She REALLY LOVED Pigs. She is buried in the same plot as my grandpa and my mother.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well now that I have rambled on, and lost of few of you at times. I am sorry. I am finally finished. And yes many a tissue lost its life to the writing of this blog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for listening to me ramble.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sherri G&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ok I finally found the pics of my sister. Been looking all day. Also been Looking RIGHT at them...................DUH&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They are not in any particuar order or year so Here goes..........&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1121/1651/320/Ann%20Pics%20001.0.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Ann, my 2 neices and Her husband&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/1121/1651/320/Ann%20Pics%20002.1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;Not sure what year this is.

This one could prove to some VERY shocking.................&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I was a teen I was a typical rebellion. I used to smoke cigerettes &amp; Weed. One of my older sisters also smoked weed. So one day we went to one of her friends place and was getting Loaded. A couple of hours later, maybe 3, I started feeling really weird. I was going at normal speed, but everything around me was going SUPER slow. My sister had me lay down, go wash my face, everything she could think of to get me to be better. We even sat outside in the cold so I could get some (freezing, if I recall correctly) fresh air. None of this really worked. We ended up driving around for like an hour and a half just so my high would go down enough to be able to get home, in the house and past my mom, without both of us getting KILLED. Literally!! Needless to say, My sister kept saying ALL day. NEVER AGAIN you are not getting high with me, NEVER. I even asked her a couple of other time and I got, NO!!!   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh a side note on this, My neice that is 7 yrs younger than me remembers this, she said my sister thought I was going to die and she was really scared.   Now I feel bad about the whole thing&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I do think the whole thing is kind of funny.   I didn't stop smoking weed for a couple of more years when I had another bad high, from someone putting other things in the joints. I figured after that, that I really wasn't supposed to be getting high.    A couple of years later I asked Christ to Live in my Heart and have been Living for Him as best I could since then.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This story is ok here cause My kids already know this story.

I am really looking for my next project to work on now I think.  I have to figure out something to do to keep me busy that I can take a 3 yr old with me.  I only have her from 8:30 AM to 3:00 PM then her brother gets home from school.  Well, any good ideas??  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am looking at this whole attitude lately and just decided that things are not gonna bother me anymore.  The Enemy has done a VERY good job at keeping me distracted lately, But I am taking control back.  Thank U Lord for the strength to keep on keeping on with you daily.  Take my attitude, and replace it with Peace Lord.  Thank You for this.  In Jesus Name.........AMEN.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lord I want to lift up all of those in the hurricane path of Wilma right now.  Please u weakened the storm over night but help shelter these people from her wrath.  Turn her away from all paths that have life in it.  take her someplace Lord where no one will be hurt or lose any property.  Thank You for this Lord.  Thank you for the peace and clarity of mind for those preparing their home and lives for this hurricane.  Give them that comfort that everything will be ok.  I thank u for this Lord.  I know I stand with others in saying this Lord and You said that where 2 or more stand together There you are in the Midst.  Thank you for being in Our Midst Lord.  &lt;br /&gt;In Jesus Name..........AMEN&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well I think I am going to leave this blog with that.  I Love U all and will continue to keep those of you in the path in my prayers.  If someone could leave me the specific names of those we know of.  I would MUCH appreciate it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love In Christ, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sherri G&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17454678-112982132210676421?l=sgartley6164.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/feeds/112982132210676421/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17454678&amp;postID=112982132210676421&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/112982132210676421'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17454678/posts/default/112982132210676421'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sgartley6164.blogspot.com/2005/10/its-almost-friday.html' title='It&apos;s Almost FRIDAY!!!!!'/><author><name>Shorty Montes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='27' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Uq7N54PDRuI/TYVRcnbobzI/AAAAAAAAANw/0nedg6bREKU/s220/AI%2BStudent%2BID%2BHead%2BShot.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17454678.post-112973653147759892</id><published>2005-10-19T08:42:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-10-19T09:07:39.823-07:00</updated><title type='text'>A few things about me</title><content type='html'>Hey Everyone,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I stole this from Sue in KY, who stole it from Sue in PA.

Diet is going good but mood is sucky for some reason.  I am trying to figure out what is really going with my friend.   But God will show me soon, I Pray.  Well with TOM I gained .2 lbs back this week.  But i wasn't very good with my eating last weekend.  So a .2 gain is good.  I am just trying to iron some things out in my life right now which is adjusting my mood, on top of my PMS.   GRRRRRRRR feel like hurting something.................. a nice brick wall would be nice.   LOL  no feelings and makes me think about doing that again for a LONG time.

Church was good but Sunday School was awesome. I got soooo much out of it. I always say things happen for a reason, and I couldn't figure out the reason why my friend could not manage to get time to come see me. Well after Sunday School I totally understand. Essentially I have walked away from my First Love......... :) That would be God. LOL See you thought something else huh?? Well I really have....... I say that because I know what God requires of me in order to have any kind of relationship with someone. That is for me to stay Rooted and Grounded in Him. Well to say the least I have been a BAD girl. Doing my own thing just messing around on the computer. Not really being focused on anything, much less what I am supposed to be doing for God. And to say the least not Keeping my self studied up To Show Myself Approved. If I don't approve of myself then I don't expect God to either. Well now that I am back Fixed and Focused where I should be I feel good again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My friend came online last night and said he is almost finished there where he is at and should be here soon. This time I actually believed it. LOL&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not the greatest weekend for the diet but I think it is because of my weakness and TOM and the fact that I just haven't eaten correctly since Friday. I know Another KICK in MY PANTS. GO AHEAD!!!! Kick away. OK I am back on track this morning. Weigh in is tomorrow and I really want the scale to move even a little will make me happy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I do have a NSV. Saturday I was messing around and picked up this summer dress that I bought about 1 1/2 months ago. My mistake when I bought it was I didn't try it on in the store so when I got it home it was WAY too tight. I struggled to get it on and struggled again to get it off. Saturday I tried it on just for the heck of it and it went on fairly easy. and even easier to get it off. So really if the scale doesn't move much this week.

Even if it is walking around the court again and sitting outside with the little one I babysit.  Well My friend is working on another k=job for his boss. He is in Austria.  Well I am still ontrack with the weight loss though even in my funk.  LOL  Can't let anything mess that up.  Even though I did hava  few natural corn chipos last night.  Back on track today and no cheating.  i really want to go out to breakfast tomorrow but that is about 2/3's of my whole daily intake for what I usually get.  LOL maybe i will just dream i did.  LOL  I really want a weight loss this next week.  Think I am gonna try to start Pilates for exercise.  Then if I can build myself up I can go back to working out with this trainer I know.  He will work the mess out of me.  :D      Well Just blogging here this morning I fell a lot better.   I am glad I started doing this.  Well I am gonna close this for now.  Will blog again tomorrow.

LOL didn't know what else to say.  Was shocked someone noticed so early.  i am stoked now.  Well I am eating my dinner now a little late but still gonna get everything in today.  Water intake was successful.  2 quarts and hopefully one more before bed.    My kids are doing good.  I have 3 girls, 19, 18, &amp; 16 and 1 grandson 4 months old.
