Hi Daisylee
You are so right, She had a positive attitude despite house and health issues.
She and I had been posting in the same message threads since early last year when I joined NS..

Hi Val
I felt bad posting bad news but I felt better to let everybody know than to have them think she just dropped out.
Cheers

Hi All
On todays walk I started out later than usual so I could go to the dollar store. I picked up 10 Halloween decorations and put them up as I get ready for the holiday. They also had Christmas decorations for sale already.
Have a Good Thursday

Roger - thank you for the posting about Shirl. I always looked forward to her postings and was even able to get some menu ideas from her. I know she suffered greatly and is at peace now but she was a pleasure to have in our virtual group and will be missed.0

NS Buddies - had my weekly WI this morning and lost again - total since starting NS - 81 lbs on the nose. I am very thankful for this. I am also thankful that after my visit to the ortho surgeon on Monday morning, he agreed to schedule me for a hip replacement - coming 11/11. 27 more days of this pain and then I get to go to sleep and wake up without it - I'm stoked! I would like to congratulate all the losers and especially Daisylees's great accomplishment! I am 18 lbs away from taking a momentous picture of my WI - wish me luck!0

81 pounds is wonderful!!!!!! Congrats on the loss plus getting your new hip scheduled. Getting rid of the hip pain will promote more exercise! Awesome. Looking forward to the picture!0 -
Work is killing me...yesterday they made a template so I worked late moving all my information onto it. Worked all day today...then at 5pm, they deleted that document and posted a new template. Panicked because I lost all my work...the person who deleted it got it out of the e-trash...but again I have to move all my stuff into yet another new template!0

Hi
Took my new Inexpensive Digital Camera, $29 + Tax at Walmart, with me walking this morning. I did have to get a SD card for it so I used a 16Gb from a defunct Digital Camera that Got exposed to salt air at the shore. I have posted some images from around town and Some Halloween pictures. Feel free to add Your Own Halloween images.

Hi Val
Bev is doing good and I am sure that being pain free will help her lose faster. According to what I have heard and seen You lose faster (better?) with a good nights sleep, That includes a long enough nights sleep.hope4change_val wrote: »Work is killing me...yesterday they made a template so I worked late moving all my information onto it.

Hi Again
I am surprised that they did not have a import function to import from the old to the new?
It sounds as if You need to keep a backup locally.
Have a Nice Day

You're do right about sleep helping w weight loss ...and health in general. My normal average sleep per fitbit is 2-3 hrs. Last 2 nights I've improved to just over 4! I know, that's still not good. I try.0

Hi Val
I know I do not get as much sleep as I like either
My Little Fitbit Zip does not track sleep AFAIK.
Good Luck getting more sleep

Wogged more than 5 miles today! I'm feeling good. But, concerned about my old dog. Oscar is 10 years old, 110 lbs. Mastiff/Lab mix. He is such a love. I know that super big dogs live 9-12 years, and he made it! On our morning wog, his back left leg gave out a few times. For the evening, I only took him and the Chihuahua (leaving the younger dogs home)...again his back left gave out, but then also he stumbled repeatedly on both his front legs and stopped...just stood there. I sat down with him and petted him till he got up again. And then I walked slowly with him. When I leave him home and take the 5-year olds out without him, he cries! So, it is heartbreaking to leave him, and getting concerning to take him. I don't think I could carry him home (house is up hill from all around...great for the rain to drain away, but not so good when you want to get your hurt pup home). Doggie wheelchairs run $700 for his size...but it takes two people to get the dog into it. He is such a sweet dog. Going to take things a day at a time. We are supposed to get some rain here, so will use that as an excuse to exercise inside...and give him break from wogging.
Take care all, Val0 -
Good morning, everyone! Things have been CRAZY in my life. I'm moving Saturday! UGH! Soooo much stuff to do. Did lose a lb for my WI this morning, so I'm happy about that. But this move has me so stressed. My face is breaking out from it, but I'm not over eating. I could use a couple able bodies to help move if you feel so inclined! lol Right now it's just me, my 17 year old son, my 23 year old daughter and my 4'10" sister-in-law. This is going to be interesting. That's for sure. I put out an email to my grad students requesting help but no one has offered to help yet. UGH!
Have a great day, everyone!0 -
Hi
Temperature was showing 29 degrees on the closed in front porch when I left the house this morning, nearby town was at 23 degrees, Brrr...
I decided to shorten my walk today, 2.36 miles, when despite three layers of gloves My fingers were hurting from the cold. That would be leather gloves with a thin flannel lining and over those two layers of Brown Jersey gloves.
I picked up a coffee for my brother on the way back home. Currently the 7 Eleven refill is $1.34 which is what I paid on the outbound leg and then I got him a nice new cup and the price on that is currently $1.92 with tax down from a earlier this year $2.13.
Happy Monday

Hi Val
I am sorry to hear the bad news regarding Your Dog. I suppose You thought about looking at a garage sale for a childs wagon to take on the walks? I did not even know they made Doggie Wheelchairs.
I have seen people pick their dog up during some of my walks but they were small dogs. 110 Pounds I can see that won't work.
Good Luck

Hi Terri
Congratulations on Your Loss. It has to be hard when feeling stressed out too so that makes it doubly good.
Good Luck with the move

I am so sorry to hear about Shirl. I know she had health problems, but she also seemed active and full of life. I know she was filled with kindness and love. I am shocked, and my heart goes out to her family, and to all of you who knew her even better.

Hi Val - I don't wear mine to bed anymore because it troubled me about the sleep I was not getting - probably kept me awake thinking about it
I decided to just wear it during active periods... 0 -

Having just moved myself last weekend - I can feel your pain! Perhaps the grad students would work for beer? 0
