    Happy Birthday, Marie, :smiley:

    With Jake gone, I have spent a lot of time either walking the dogs or riding the exercise bike and watching TV and haven't been at the computer.

    Marie, it was great talking to you on the phone....Jake wishes he could have been able to call and sing with me to wish you Happy Birthday.

    Sandy, I know how hard it has been for you to let Bryanna take the consequences of her actions.....you have been looking after her for so many years.

    I messaged Buzzand this is her reply.

    You're a dear! Yes, all's well, just so involved with everything going on, and I'm the chief driver, record keeper, and now (patient) doing rehab with compression boot to rid my legs of liquid from lymphedema. Just taking care of things I've neglected too long! They wrap my legs as well and it's 1 1/2 hours 3 days a week, so I feel swamped for time! I hope over the week end to get to Golden Sneakers and catch up., because I certainly miss you! Thank goodness I no longer have to plan meals or cook, as I would be starving now (which might help my weight!).
    Hope you and Babe are doing well, so I will try to catch up! Give everyone my love, please, Sandy!
    hugs XOXOXO

    Thanks Sandy for checking out Buzz for us. nice to get a report from her glad she is Ok. How is Babe and Daisy doing?

    I made me a broccoli salad to eat with my bean soups this week. love that stuff. today soups will be white beans and frozen mixed vegies and maybe a spinach muffin Have not try that with flax seeds yet have made it with cornbread mix and love it That is if I got some frozen spinach in the freezer.

    I am clean out my spice cabinet most of it is so old I am sure it is no good. Then since I may be sticking with this low carb plan will go thru my pantry and get a Can good bag ready for the church for Christmas. Lots of stuff I don't eat any more and Jerry wont .. Big plans if I get a few of it done I better get busy.

    phoebe I took the two bags grocer shopping yesterday. boy they hold a lot. really nice. Thank you.
    The days are just too short for me to get all I want to do. plus my energy level is not so hot. But I do keep my mind occupy
    I can hardly wait till tomorrow to be with all of my kids.Bruce should be here around 4 PM He is my Baby boy.

    This is just rambling along so I think I shall get busy and g
    get some things mark off of my to do list.
    Hugs to each one of you.

  • Its so frustrating when you wait for the phone to ring but don't want it to! We dont know when we will be going. Im going to pick up a prescription at wal mart.
    i took Macho to the vet and we decided to have him put to sleep. He had abscesses badly infected and he would have needed to have indoor nursing, meds, and possibly surgery. I know he wasnt really ours, but someone had no intention to take care of him. Ill miss him, im a little teared up, but he was suffering.
    Marie, so glad your kids are coming in.
    Better get to the store

    Happy Sunday! :D Just got back from 12:15 Mass and getting ready for a video call with my kids. I am a little down today, not sure why unless I am fighting getting sick. I had a scratchy throat last night but it seems better today. I am just going to stay home today and drink some hot tea. Tomorrow I start waking at 5:30 a.m. to drive Bryanna back and forth to work. I will do this until Friday when her suspension if lifted. Good practice for sitting for Robby but I will admit I don't like getting up early. B)

    Have a great day everyone and stay healthy.

    Afternoon Sneakers,

    It has been a difficult two weeks but now my friend Elli has been put to rest and we let white balloons go at the grave site. It was so emotional at the funeral and we were invited back to her sister's house for something to eat, just the family. They had a lovely buffet for the rest of the people at the funeral home after the service. My MIL and Kristina came to the funeral to support the family. Dave did the Eulogy and did a great job.

    I have been going to Yoga classes the last two days with my daughter Kristina, the yoga
    instructor, and it was just what I needed. Trying to rid my body of the sadness that has looming for weeks now. She also paid for 20 more classes for me as my Christmas gift.
    She is so sweet to do that. <3 Now I can go more than once a week. :D

    Well next week I will be back to focusing on weight loss and my goal will be Christmas to at least get off what I have gained these last two weeks on eating comfort food to soothe my emotions.

    SANDY - I guess I missed that Bryanna had almost lost her license. You will be busy taking her to work and babysitting. Take care of yourself in the process. I hope you are not coming down with cold. Such a cute picture of Robby. I am glad Buzz if okay she has a lot going on right now.

    PHOEBE - I am sorry about Macho, its so hard to loose an animal they are always like a family member. :(

    MARIE - I hope you had a great birthday!

    LIN - I love that quote you posted to all of us. It certainly hit every segment of life.

    BARBIE - You are keeping busy and that is good, you must miss Jake.

    Hello to all the other Sneakers. I hope your day is going like you want.

    Hello Sneakers - the day has once again gotten away from me. I went to Walmart and Trader Joe's this morning. Dropped things off and then off to church. Then to Michael's craft store and home to frame two pictures I plan to take to my dad's nursing home room (they are to hang them for me). Cut up lots of veggies for lunch.............got out the reflector stakes to go in along the driveway so I (and the guy who removes the snow) know exactly where the sidewalk and driveway boundaries are. He showed up this afternoon and put the stakes in where he wants them (better than me guessing). I sorted through a few things and have been enjoying the afternoon of the Waltons......I know I have the DVDs but I liked listening to Richard Thomas' comments and now the special movie. Finished reading a book. Practiced long tail casting on----have my first knitting class on Tuesday. Talked to my dad to the best of my ability. We are having 15 to 20 minute calls where he may say something, or be very distressed, or just breathes at me..........never know.

    Hugs to my friends.............wishing you well. And I wish we all have many blessings and happiness!

    Lin, I hope this year you have better service from your 'snow man'. You are always busy, will your vegetables be raw or is this the weeks worth? Quiet or not, glad your dad is 'communicating ' with you.

    Shirley, I imagine yoga is a great way to get rid of some of your anxiety from the last few months. Its good that you have had some experience with yoga. The white balloons would have me crying.

    Barbie, I love your legend!

    Found out the truck got back about 15 minutes after I left , aint that just the way of things! Im expecting the phone to ring early.

    have a safe week,

    Phoebe

    Hi y'all, and this will have to be short as I have the Mother of all neck sprains or neck pains, or whatever it is that stops you from moving or turning your neck. Can't even bend it! Try swallowing 6 pills without bending your head back! :'( !!!
    I read the past 2 days posts, and commiserate with PHOEBE (sorry about poor kitty, but you gave it so much pleasure!), SHIRLEY ( now Elli has no pain!), and SANDY ( like all sweet grandmoms, enablement comes with the territory until we see the results!). And O my, little Robby is a real doll! LIN, dahlín', yours is not an easy road for awhile, but there must be rewards for daughters like you! Meanwhile, even if I don't appear, my thoughts are with you! BARBIE, your cute graphics exhaust me, even though I'm not doing their exercises alongside them! How delightful of you, PHOEBE and LIN to help MARIE celebrate her birthday in style! JERI, dear, I recall yours was a short post, but I'm always happy to read from you! Stay well, please. JACKIE, 2 posts in one day! How nice to have lovely weather at this time of year. PHYLLIS, such talent you display! Lovely.
    I must get back to icing my back skull/neck, unless someone has better suggestions. For 2 nights, I used Salonpass patches, but they hurt when they rip out the hairs on my rear neckline! I took an Aleve and I'll crawl into bed as soon as I log off.
    Has anyone seen posts from GAYLA? Hope all is going well with her!
    The weather today, Sunday, has been rainy, and everyone is complaining about arthritis aches and pains, but I will try not to say a word about suffering o:) ! Does anyone else miss the old list of emoticons with greater choices? I wanted my little yawning friend...
    And, yes, PHOEBE is correct about my quick fix posts on the remarks page, or "home" page or whatever that is, as only a sentence or 2 is necessary! And I can catch up on everyone else's progress without divulging my lack of same :'(
    <3 Buzz
    PS, can someone give me a quick reminder on the way to copy the glitter-graphics? I vaguely remembered most tonight, but see the [img][/img]
