Marriage Builders
Hi gang.

After all the good responses on my Rump Roast thread, I have decided to clean house:

I like my hair the length and style it is, but I am doing my hair a lighter, summer strawberry blonde color (same as natural color, just lightening it a bit)

I am painting my nails and toenails FireEngine Red!!!

I bought myself two new summer outfits that have lowcut tops <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" />

I am also working on a new diet/exercise program to lose some weight and feel better about myself.

NOW...
the next thing I think I need to do is change my screenname. Of course, I would still have to log on as FaithfulWife because that can't be changed, but what shows to the board CAN be changed.

So I am holding a one-week contest to rename CJ!! Next Saturday night I will choose my new name and I want your suggestions!! I was thnking of FaithfulCJ or maybe FaithfulWolfe to start.

Get your juices flowing and your imaginations in high gear and post your suggestions here. Many of you'all know me and have known me for a long time--I'd like a name that reflects the new me and looks to the future, and not a mom or wife name (because although I am a mom, I don't want that to be my only definition).

Gnome or Hobbit might work.... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />


CJ

Okay honey. I'll think of a new name for a new life for our CJ.

All the things you're doing are great, but just know, you are beautiful inside AND out. And that shines thru .... we love you.

Jo
The word "contest" implies a prize....perhaps an all-expense paid trip to Hawaii???? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

BTW, I have enjoyed reading the responses on the Firey butt thread, lol. Will be interesting to see where this one goes, too. Are you looking for real names or will "HotBabe" work as a name??

Your humor and thoughtful posts are always great for me to read!

PS...I always think of "gnomes" and "hobbits" as male-oriented names, LOL

Ohhhhhh!!!!!!! Fun!!!!!!!!!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Good for you, CJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Rename the best Lady-In-Waiting in the whole, wide world. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

OneSmartCookie
HotPants
The One and Only Fabulous CJ
Super CJ
Wonderful Woman
Mile-High Mama (well, maybe that has some negative meaning so maybe that is not a good choice)

I'll think of some more.

BTW, I'm disappointed there was no quick response to my Jose Feliciano reference on the other thread. <img border="0" alt="[Teary]" title="" src="graemlins/teary.gif" />
hmm, still has mom basis, but kinda down the road your were talking about in the butt thread...

MYLF - (taken from american pie, from the first person rather than the possesive!)
It's not very clever, but I like FaithfulWoman. It provides a sense of continuity.

Hmm. Maybe I should change my name too. I'm thinking maybe GrossDomesticProduct.
KeepingFaith???

Just thinking of how I see you. I believe it fits!

Because you are keeping the faith - even though your marriage failed, you haven't let that set you back or take you down, you got up and "kept the faith"!!! You are STILL a believer!

Blessings,

Jan
Jo--

Wow! That's high praise from a fellow-oldie. We love you too! BTW, did you notice something fun? We are the women with two-lettered names!

* * * * *

Avondale25--

You want a prize huh? Let's see ... I think a trip to the Caribbean might work--or some of WIWH's peanut butter cup BUCKETS! YAY!!! Now *I* want to win!

* * * * *

Your royal majesty--

First, I am so honored that a princess would respond on my humble thread! Okay, I like the name OneSmartCookie because a)I'm smart and b)I like cookies--haha <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" /> . But I think Mile-High Mama may be a better word for me because I AM indeed one mile high, and I AM a little bit naughty...so it kinda fits.

Second, your Jose Feliciano reference was hilarious and I snorted a pea right into my nose from laughing so hard--so while I was unconscious I could not reply on the Butt BBQ thread. Lo and behold, I also appreciated the fluted champagne glass comment--although I think mine are more like a cappuccino cup! haha! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

* * * * *

RookKev--

ROFLABAF (rolling on floor laughing my burnt a$$ off!)!! I think I'm complimented! BTW, shouldn't it be HMYLF (assuming H=hot,Y=the pronoun YOU)?? Okay, this is one mom reference I don't mind!

Oh where is that devil emoticon when you need it. RookKev, you have been naughty! Do you need a spanking??? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />

* * * * *

GDP--

FaithfulWoman. Wow--your imagination is endless. Haha! BTW, welcome home...missed ya! I want to hear all about it, okay?? But back to the topic at hand. I like the continuity idea and keeping the faithful part because I'm proud of that, but ... maybe FaithfulChick??

* * * * * *

Jan,

I do not know what to say. Your suggestion is awesome and I'm just impressed that you think of me that way. I really do like KeepingFaith, because it really is kinda me. Do you like peanut butter cup buckets???

Thanks for all the suggestions so far, folks. This is fun!!


CJ
I like FaithfulWoman too. Sounds empowering and you very definitely sound empowered!
<img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Take good care,
Francis
Well, to help out those fellows who have been unable to perceive your inner and outer beauty, I'll suggest ColoradoCutie.

Something like "beautiful inside and out, with character and brains" is just too long, so I went with something short and alliterative.
HotNewCJ <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />
I am so NOT good at this whole creative thing.

Maybe I'm approaching this wrong. I don't have to think of a clever name, but to solve the problem of what name to give CJ.

Well, nothing has come to mind other than a new signature line, so stay tuned...


Tony
Peanut butter cups with EXTRA chocolate coating are the BEST!!! I'm particularly fond of the ones with some extra peanutty flavor in the peanut butter. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

Dark chocolate - doesn't matter - if it's chocolate - it's gotta be good.

Oh - Chocolate peanutbutter mocha Cappaccino!!! Double YUM!!!

Now, explain to me why I would NOT think of YOU as a very FAITHFUL woman who is KEEPING her faith?

Sometimes, we forget who CREATED us, and don't remember to give him credit, when we are feeling a bit down on ourselves. I do NOT believe HE makes mistakes! CJ - you are an amazing woman!!! Don't ever forget it. Even with a BBQ'd butt tattooed with 'Roo Girls' you still have the competition beat (unless it's me <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" /> )

Blessings,

Jan

Actually, FaithfulWoman was on my list initially but it fell into a hole in my swiss cheese like ADD brain.

Swiss Cheese and Rump Roast. We'd make a good pair. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />
Well if these rump roast references keep coming up your gonna end up as HotA$$CJ <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />
How 'bout "SweetBabyCJ"...???? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

<small>[ June 29, 2004, 12:13 PM: Message edited by: Want My Wife Back??? ]</small>
What about:

BetterThanBefore
StrongerThanEver
<img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
I am Rump Roast...

the princess is Swiss Cheese...

Now all we need is someone with buns!

How 'bout....


...InCredibleWoman (credible=faithful)

...DenverDiva

...RockyMountainMama

That's about all I can think of for now.....
how about Faithful&Available
Wellllll......the winning entry was....?????
Rare & Wonderful ?
Good for you! This is great! I'm gonna try it myself. FireEngine Red Nails and Toenails...Wow! Awesome!!!!

Anyway, I'm thinking maybe something like...New Faithful Me. What do you think? Does it have potential? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Whatever you decide I'm sure it's gonna be great.
For the girly girl party, you need some "I'm Not Really A Waitress" nail polish by OPI. When I worked in the church office, there were weeks when all three of the women in the office wore that.
... scans posts ...

I got it! FaithfulRump!!
..or...FaithfulLife
Well....what name have you decided on? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
I had a little computer trouble and was offline for a few days, but I'M BACK!!!

I have reviewed all the new name suggestions, and I have decided to change my screenname to

"FaithfulNewCJ"

I also gave serious consideration to:
HMYLF (heehee <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" /> )
HotNewCJ
ColoradoCutie
RockieMama

and they were VERY CLOSE but not quite me. I am still just as faithful as when I was FaithfulWife, but I'm just not a wife anymore! So...I'm FaithfulNewCJ!

(Maybe I'm FaithfulNewCJ's rump!!)

Thank you everyone for your suggestions and for helping me to feel PHAT-Pretty Hot And Tempting! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> Thank you!!

Well, Good Morning CJ,

Faithful new CJ? Well, I'm sure glad I checked this out. I suppose the new name is appropriate, but I'm concerned about the new personna, low cut dresses, and the weight loss plan. Sort of sounds like you are doing a little cyber flirting. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

So, now that the name issue has been resolved we can turn to the weight loss thing. Be careful with that, us old farts like our women with a little bit of a rump on them! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> Roast or not!

One has to be careful of those skinny little things, they can hide under a pillow, and just when you need them the most, where are they? You have to go hunting through the covers, under the mattress, checking out the pillows, etc. etc. If a girl has a little meat on her bones at least you always know where shes at. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Good to see you doing well, love the upbeat style, it suits you well sweetie!
Hey, you grouchy old fart, you!

Oh, it's good to hear from the old life-long friends! It seems like a lifetime, doesn't it??

Not to worry, you dirty old man, I am not going to waste away in the wind, and I can say with complete confidence that my rump will ALWAYS be roastable! haha <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" /> I am currently a size 18 and am hoping to get to about 12 or 14. It would be the perfect size for a woman like me who also likes a little meat on her bones AND who wants to be soft in a huggy/cuddly kind of way.

I went to a car show today, and it was AWESOME. Studebakers from 1931 to 1971. My favs were the 1931 completely restored with a rumble seat...a 1956 GT Hawk black with red interior and white fins, and completely all Studebaker parts...and a 1971 Avanti that was gold with a tan leather interior and a Corvette engine. One car was a Studebaker street rod with a STRAIGHT 8!! I tried to show my daughter the difference between a straight 8 and a V8, but she was NOT interested.

While I was there, I practiced my flirting techniques, because if you can not find a guy to flirt with at a CAR SHOW then you're in trouble, huh? Anyway, it went okay...I struck up several conversations and had a wonderfully fun time (especially with one fella who was quite amused as I tried to explain straight 8/V8 to my daughter!). No...I didn't get any phone numbers or dates. Yes...I did speak up, flirt, and practice and it was fun!


FaithfulNewCJ!!!
You go, girl!!!!!

I like the name. Good choice.
