"Purple Girl In Pink"

Doesn't Purple Girl look nice. What a surprise showing up in the Fun Room. I almost didn't recognize her. Why? She has lost over 35 lbs, and is looking wonderful. She is attending an Assembly in Pittsburgh, PA, today and tomorrow, with Vernon, and Mercedez. Also, Jack, Gina and Ryan are there, as well as many more friends. Wish I could be there too. But, I will be attending my "Special Assembly Day" on Sunday, November 15, 2009, somewhere in Des Moines, Iowa.

Remember this is the Fun Room. So here are some quotes on Fitness! ; )
