I don't spend a lot of time on FB, but I have to tell you how happy I am to find two more of my high school friends! I can't believe it! I can't begin to say how many years they've been in my thoughts and prayers and all attempts to reach them dead-ended.

My friend Steve took me to my first concert back in 1973 or 1974. We saw Seals and Crofts at our high school! And Karyl and I went to church retreat together, and did a lot of swimming because it was so dang hot where we lived.

Phil, my husband, and I will be driving to Palm Springs to see Steve soon. Perhaps Saturday if he's free. Karyl lives in Arizona, so that trip will have to wait until we have some time away from work to go.

Man! It sure paid off using my maiden name on that FB account! I found my childhood best friend, Xochitl three years ago...what a miracle!

I have so much to look forward to this up-coming year. And this year I won't be heavy. In fact, this year, I am dedicated to beginning my first year as I should have looked and felt all these years that I couldn't put the damn fork down!

After talking to some of our buddies here on FS, I've decided to buy free weights in lieu of a gym. I would rather have my gym room feel open and the free weights won't hog the area for floor exercise.

Thanks buddies for all your input and thoughts about the best equipment to use. And if you happen to be searching for friends and relatives on FB, my best to you! It really is marvelous to find people you love and miss and learn about their lives.

Sometimes FB can be really amazing. A lady who was a friend of my Dad's found me because I have my maiden name in there and she was able to connect with my Dad. I love that!

I think I will have to get with the times and get on face book. Some how never saw any benefit to it but it would be a good way to keep in touch with my nieces and nephews.

skwhite and fatoldlady, Thanks for the comments! Good to see you two! FB can be amazing. I love that you can actually see people via photos and see their kids and special occasions like graduations, etc. Plus, their animals are always fun to see.
