My sister looks at my getting stuck in NY for an extra day as divine intervention as she and her two children were scheduled to leave for a trip to Las Vegas this morning and guess whose flight was leaving at the same time? Ours of course! She had a meltdown yesterday, missing her husband and my dad and she was so comforted that Steve and I would be with her and the kids at the airport. She was so strong on Christmas day, trying so hard to make it a good one for her kids, and it was. My brother in law would be so proud of her! That is the only thing I keep telling her that seems to help her. We joke about it though because there are things that she does on purpose to get him to come and haunt her such as raising the heat...my BIL was for lack of a better word, CHEAP! and was always turning it down in the winter and up in the summer! She will be in Las Vegas until Friday and I know they will have a great time! I am so proud of her!
As for me, I will be trying to pop in here and there for the rest of the week. I have never in my life looked at a new year like I am looking at this one. I am looking to lose 15 more pounds in 2011, I know I will! Thank you all for being such a support to me and always being here with advice or a kind word. 2010 has really sucked for me and my family but my personal accomplishment of finally being able to attain my weightloss goals has been beyond my imagination.
If I don't get back here until after the new year, Happy New Year to you all!

I'm sorry you got stuck but I'm so happy you could be there for your sister. I don't know what it would feel like to be in her shoes - she's lucky to have you there to help her through it. I hope this Christmas was ok for you too.
You mentioned in an earlier post that you have a new Macbook air - I have one too and I'm loving it! I bought it for myself for Christmas and told my husband it was from him. LOL. He did get me some accessories for it- a wireless mouse which is nice and a case. He actually dropped my airbook 2 days after I got it and dented the side. I was so upset and didn't hide it very well. My beautiful, razor thin book was dented. I'm past it now - but sheesh!
Well good luck with the 15 lb goal!!
Happy New Year!
Enjoy your time with the family
Happy New Year, Jacquie! Enjoy your family time. xoxo
I have been wondering if you made it out in time for your next batch of visitors! I'm glad you were able to get home in time and be there for your sister!
I hear it is a bit cold even FL..Stay warm and have a lovely New year.
xxxooo
glad to hear you made it back ok, even with the delay.
glad you got home. will we get to see you on sunday? i hope so!
Glad you finally got home. Here's to a great 2011. We'll get skinny together. My daughter just got engaged 2 days ago, so now I have to look good in a mother-of-the-bride dress. But I think I'll have over a year before they actually marry.
Have fun with your houseload of guests.
Happy New Year 2011 is shaping up to be a great year xo
