New and improved Mizscarlett journal. Henceforth, I will try not to talk be too bossy or too sarcastic I will strive not to offer unsolicited advice and I will restrain from complaining about EB and other things/people.

My news: I passed that test I studied for all summer!! I'm feeling pretty good about it - a mixture of feeling blessed and accomplishment. If you have forgotten or didn't read this before, I was adding an area of certification to my teaching license. I finished a master's in this area in 97, but I never really taught any classes that required the certification; I still don't NEED it, but when I realized it wasn't even on my license when it came time for my ten year renewal last December, I started looking into how to get it added. Because I finished the coursework so long ago, I was told to take the Praxis II for that area, which is a new and very difficult test. My university advisor is still around, but other than one email saying read these three textbooks, she was NO help, so I just tried to study everything related to this field of research. After taking the test, I was 50/50 on whether or not I passed. I got my results last week and was so scared to open the envelope. I've never failed anything academic before; school was just easy for me, but this was HARD. Not to pat myself on the back, you can look at my butt and see I lost the battle of the bulge, Anyway, I mustered the courage to look at my score and I could NOT believe I passed. I still wonder if I am dreaming I passed and I will wake up soon and the sense of dread will return when I look at the mailbox everyday.

I know it was God's answered prayer and I am sooo grateful.

Now it's time to start thinking about my thighs again! Hence, MizScarlett...Take TWO!

Thank you, CC, you are a real friend I know you like to think you are a but you are just an in disguise.

We restored an antique vanity for my daughter, and when we got it back together tonight, I kept seeing myself in the three-way mirror. I have got to get back in the groove of exercising daily. I'll check in with y'all tomorrow. For tonight, that &#(*$&#( elliptical is calling my name

AWWW,thanks. I at least, have one person fooled on here.

Sounds nice and me to girl. I've looked in the mirror lately and see my belly expanding again.

Will this battle of the weightloss ever end ? Probably not, especially after having 4 children,my body will never be the same.

It's a Goodthing, they have Spanks,uh.

MIZ, I think, I've finally done it.

I found the perfect avatar,now all my kitty needs is a hair dye job.

Even the stern look on my kitties face, says it all.
