I stuffed the dressing, I gobbled the turkey, Don't talk to me about ham, boy! I scarfed green jello salad Like a third world child, My diet is a shambles. Then yesterday I made a mistake, And stepped on the bathroom scales. I'm glad I don't live by the sea Where people go hunting for whales. Nan |

Dear Sunshine, I know. I'll never get Thanksgiving worked off before the banana bread and fruitcake get me. Oh well. Dear Juanita, I like it here! I get depressed just thinking about the scales. Dear Melton, Hah! I never heard it called the 12 pounds of Christmas before, but it's accurate. Nan |

Terrific, Nan......I am glad to see that you are over here also! What a great idea for a poem....now, it you will only type hard enough, you might burn up some of those calories. I was looking for a fat lady icon to razz you with but the closest I could come was the buxum lady! At least she is wearing her Thanksgiving dinner in the right place. I am still wearing Thanksgiving around my hips...and luckily, I don't really celebrate Christmas...but Chanukah is just as bad with the potato latkas. Anyway...it makes for a great poem...and I am so happy to see you here. Lyra "poetry is life distilled" Gwendolyn Brooks [This message has been edited by Madame Chipmunk (edited 12-06-2001).] |

Dear Lyra, Glad you liked it. I refuse to believe that potato latkas can compare to banana bread, fruitcake, and what just came in the mail today? a huge tub of caramel popcorn(to which I am addicted). Sigh. I think the entire world should have my holidays so they can be humbled(and fattened) along with me. I'll send you some Texas Pecan Cake(if I can get Mom to make it). Nan |

Dear Brigitte, Oh! Chocolate pie with loads of whipcream on top! Lovely. And my ex-sister-in-law sends hand-made Martha Washington candy along with divinity and fudge. Will it never cease? (Yes, and I'll be depressed then) Nan |

Welcome! I like and sadly, relate to your cute poem. However, I've found 2 ways to keep from getting depressed, don't get on the scale and close my eyes as I pass by mirrors. Rae |

Dear Rae, Good thinking about the mirrors. I've ignored them so long, I never see myself unless I'm at a store trying on clothes. Have you noticed that stores have fun-house mirrors? They make me look fat and short. Nan |
