B, it's only when we make a "firm decision" on something that the Universe decided to offer us choices that make us gnash our teeth when we have to choose.

Still... when the choice is between money (admittedly, enough to keep you all in Huggies for a very long time)... and having these months with your beautiful daughter, while she is busy becoming an actual little person, self-aware and discovering her world... I know you're going to cherish the time more than anything you could have possibly gained financially.  


Does kinda suck to have to choose, though...  :-\

Just make sure you're getting as much, or more, veggies as the others, and decent exercise (like climbing around on piles of metal pipe... ;) ), and it should come off.  Well, as long as you're eating reasonable amounts of things, anyway. 


Oh, and potatoes don't count as veggies...  :P  Unfortunately, neither do carrots (although they're excellent fiber if they're raw), and definitely not corn.  And if it's drenched in butter and/or cheese... I'm pretty sure it loses it's vegetable status then, as well...  :D  Grilled or steamed veggies are always good, though, and I know you're a grill master...  Raw spinach and spring greens salads are filling, also, and tomatoes are considered to be a "free food", which means as much as you like! 


Diets totally suck... but good food can also be good for you!

I've always hated eating veggies but I can say that I am getting better at it.

There are CERTAIN people that get their undies in a knot by innuendo and double talk... remember the stuff with our Dracconia, last year?  Even though you need to be over 16 to have an account, some are middle aged with 12 yr old eyes.

Seriously? That's about as funny as political correctness. At some point that @#$%^ is going to have to stop.
