Terri, Me Too Re: Country Way of Life

[Guest guest]

Matt,

Yumm! I haven't done it in awhile because of weight watchers. I break

down every now and then and have something forbidden so it may be french

fries and a milk shake. My husband and I passed Chapel Hill on the way

to and from Charlotte this week. If it weren't for wanting to be close

to my children, I wouldn't mind living in NC at all. The people are

sooo nice. People here are so rude.

Well, when I decide to have my little " snack " I will let you know how it

was. Of course I won't know when I can do that until I weigh in on

Monday. So we will have to see.

Take care.

Terri G.

Hi Terri- hope u like Chapel Hill- it is about 10

times bigger now then when i lived there- Had only one

stop light and only one local fast food place- loved

living there as a child but didnt like it as an adult

so that is why i moved to Seattle- luckily the rest of

my fasmily also chose to move herer also so all my

brothers and my sister now live in eattle and my

parents retired out here- MATT

Hey, don't knock it till you've tried it, it's like peanut butter-banana-mayonaise sandwiches, they sound awful but taste great.....Conniemosaicgirl1 wrote: ,Glad you are back.
