I have internet again!

Hello! To all my Gather friends. I have internet again. I am so happy. I missed you all alot!! I have alot to tell and alot to share.

Good news : I have been very successful in loosing weight this past year. I still have more to go. But going from a size 14 down to a size 9/10, I think is a great feat in a year and half time. Anyone else been successful with weight loss?

This picture was taken on Easter at my sisters place.

Bad news : I have been diagnosed with RA (rheumatoid arthritis). It does explain alot with what has been going on with me for awhile now. Now if my doc would get on ball and help ease my symptoms any time soon, that would be awesome. I really don't know much about what it really is. Except I swell, I hurt and I get sweat spells. Anyone have any tips to help with this or can share info about it?

Good news : I am no longer working at the local job center. As my social security has finally came through. I do have lots of info to share on obtaining job sources, resumes, and more.

Bad news : My van died. So I am stuck in the country with no vehicle.

Good news : I have recently got a new puppy. She is a Yorkie-Poo. I'll have to create a post later with a picture of her. If I can get her to sit still long enough to take one. Lmao! Anyone else any new family members since I've been gone? If so, tell me about 'em.

Also, I could read posts from gather through my cell phone. But some reason it wouldn't let comment or anything. I do hope my views still helped my Gather friends out!!!! I can't wait to get caught up.

It's good that you have internet again.

It's too bad about your van. I've been stranded in the country before without transportation, so I know what a huge pain that is.

Oh yes that is a big pain. Considering I have to rely on others for help to town.

I wondered where you went. So glad to see you back!!! Congratulations on your weight loss!!! I'm having problems with my blood sugar, but, since I started taking cinnamon capsules, I've lost almost 7 lbs!!! You might want to look into it.
