F.Y.I. - Kids bowling shoes starting at $24.99 . http://www.bowling.com/kids-bowl-free/?trk_msg=J1BUU627I5247D9SQOSP99T9C8&trk_contact=6NH02DARQ0LPM553LBGAU0NVIC&utm_source=Listrak&utm_medium=Email&utm_term=kbf&utm_campaign=5-29-15+Need+new+shoes?+Can't+Miss+This!
I have only bought rosen balls, shoe covers, and rolling bags from this site, but delivery was quick for our orders. (Yes, we spend a lot of money in our house on bowling supplies, so if you don't want/need this information, I completely understand).0 -
Carey-Edmonton: Thought for the day: “Whatever you want to do, do it now. There are only so many tomorrows.” – Michael Landon
This was just for me and exactly right. We are attending so many funerals that I have a dedicated outfit to wear and its so sad! So I am proceeding forth....just printed some stuff from the internet. The first order or business is ordering a new laptop or desktop (I haven't quite decided yet).
[/Katlab]: Thanks for telling me about the shop owner's experience. It supports what I thought.

Husband and I were out on the trails this morning at 9am...met some TOPS friends and walked for an hr. Everyone did really well. My husband did his own walk, and let me walk with my friends. One is getting over ankle surgery, so we walked at a slow pace. Slow enough for chatting which was nice. Hopefully I can get a walk in this weekend and go a bit quicker. I didn't want to exit from the pack this morning, that would have been rude. There were 4 of us, so it was a long enough walk that I got my legs warm and exercised.
My plan for the upcoming week:
Saturday morn: tidy apt, organize pantry make list for Sunday.
Sunday: long walk in the grocery store
Monday: Morning walk with TOPS pals
Tues: 30 min lap swimming/ tend garden
Wednes: weigh-in at TOPS walking afterward with husband
Thurs: 30 lap swimming/ tend garden
friday: Morning walk with TOPS pals
I am still using ceyanne pepper & tumeric in 80% of what I am eating. The upside is that I am drinking my 2 liters of water no problem..haha go figure...
@bkrimpet When I work in the garden I am so sore the next day! But it does make me feel like a pioneer woman!
@lhannon062709 You rock! Such accountability and dedication in your exercising!
@SSC1958 Try spicing up your meals more.. I have been using ceyanne pepper and tumeric and it really adds some heat (plus making you get in your daily water intake). No worries on the +2 lbs, you will shed that in no time..
@terewilliams Great determination I hear (see) in your posting! You will get where you want to be, and do what you will have to do, to make it happen. Gift baskets are so personal and everyone loves getting them. What about some sort of questionare when they order one, so you can get items that the reciever will think, "wow that person really gets me, and what I like".
@Lilymay2 Sorry to hear about your Moms' fall! Sending healing thoughts from Oregon to you
@DamitJanit Good luck on your yard sale! Towards the end of all of my yard sales I get a bunch of paper sacks and put a sign out saying 'Fill a bag for $5'. That is great for books, movies, or clothes, or toys. At least you get $5 right?
@CynthiaT60 With the cemetary , are they moving the graves and the headstones? Sadly I have heard horror stories about cemetaries only moving the headstones. Are you a photographer? Every year in October, they have "Talking Tombstones" where people dress up as historical figures that have passed and talk about their lives and how they shaped the area. Very informative and interesting.
@jmkmomm Haha...I always show my age. I have this cool grey streak that frames my face! When our KOA camping area had free swimming for the local seniors in our area over the fall and winter months, I went along with my pals from TOPS that were in their 60-70's because I could. Plus I rememorized my birthdate, not that I really needed to... shhhhh...
@fanncy0626 Sadly the granola was made with dark chocolate....10 ozs of dark gharedille's 60% cacco. I used the whole bag because I didn't dare leave half a bag in the pantry!
Well husband bugging me to get off the computer to eat lunch...laters folks.

Happy Friday Evening!
I keep reading off and on but haven't caught up on all the posts.
Went to grand son's pre-k graduation yesterday and they were all so cute. The teacher did a fantastic job with these children. They sang several songs and each child got a certificate and a parting remark. Unfortunately, my GS's was "he's very quiet but sneaky." Yes, that does apply to this child. LOL I would never have the patience to work with 4 yr olds. Son brought the 3yr and 4 yr old today and we played and went down the side street to look for horses that board back behind us. Only saw one and it was fenced in far back from the road. They picked me wild flower weeds.
Got my second pair of no line progressives this afternoon and I feel a lot more comfortable in them than with the first pair I returned. I can see the computer screen a lot better. Think it's all in how they actually fitted the glasses before putting in the prescription (does that make sense?).
Good thoughts for all of you and family members having physical problems. There seems to be quite a bit going on among all of us but guess that comes with age.

Hi, everyone; thanks for the warm welcome back!!! Had one of my favorite summertime treats this am........watermelon chunks sprinkled with balsamic vinegar and mint, delicious!
Tried a plank last night......50 seconds, down from a solid 2 minutes, need to work on that.
pip........Yes, I certainly did miss your "juice"!!!! LOL!!! You ARE a "pip" and I do enjoy you.
Lesley.........Sending thoughts to your daughter that her surgery went well and she heals rapidly. Hugs to you.
drkatie.......Condolences on the loss of your kitty, Sebastian.
Katla.......DD had a horse that someone else was leading to the barn spin around and land a perfect kick to her hip last night; took her off her feet flying and she landed in a ditch; has a very painful perfect bruise from his shoe. But where is she today?????? Riding, of course. Ahhhh........you horse people! Enjoy your lesson today!
Beth.......Thought of you (or rather, your son) on Monday; got awake between 4 and 5am with an awful migraine; had to miss a morning memorial service.
Heather.........Your trip sounds fabulous (as always!!!).
Kim.........Love your very effective car buying method!!! How smart. WTG!
Carey........Michael Landon was a favorite of mine. I remember the last appearance he made on late night tv and how he spoke so touchingly about his diagnosis.
Does it irk anyone else when you pay with cash after a meal and the waitstaff asks if you want your change? I had this happen again (!!) last night and it just makes me see red........and, reduces the tip they do get. It seems awfully presumptuous to assume I don't want change from a twenty when my bill is eleven........that would be a huge tip!!!
Best to all!

evening ladies~
going through DGD withdrawl... even though I only had her for overnight,its never enough,, but we had a nice time, she had me sleep in with her and I read her bedtime stories from an old book that my mom read to me, and her mom read to her.. she loved it, grandpa asked her how it felt to be home, and she said , it is always the best when I come home, and she truly means it... she thinks this is her home. and I am glad.. dropped her off this morning after we went out to feed my DFIL , and bless his heart he remembered her.. didnt remember her name but he said hey there is the cookie girl, when he lived in his own house and we went over they would always share oreo cookies.. so that was nice, and then I stopped where I work with her, and of course they all love her too..
know they are gonna have a busy day tomorrow but sure wish we could spend more time.0 -
Annr: I'm assuming they're also moving the graves, because apparently they are going to build houses there (!) and there'll have to be some kind of foundation....
Yanniejannie: irks me too!
Cynthia0 -
Kim great way to buy a car.
Lillian sorry for mom's fall.
Last day to sub this year. I had a nice class to end the year with. MNMargaret 0 -
Katla- sorry about the miss spelling of your name. My phone corrects words that it thinks are spelled wrong. And they call it a smart phone LOL

Hello to all: It is raining here today so put a crimp in the plans I had for moving things into the front of the horse trailer in preparation for moving. I have set a goal today of packing 100 things, have got about 50 so far into boxes or donation pile. Packing the final set of dishes and will be eating on paper and plastic from now on. Ran into a slight glitch with the mortgage insurance underwriting but they promised it will be fixed by Tuesday and we can sign.
Katla - The lady who currently boards my horse and her DD are going to haul my horse in my trailer to WA for me about a week after we get there. That will give us time to get at least a little settled. They will vacation on the way back to SD and I am paying for their gas. I can pack the front of my gooseneck trailer with whatever I like and the back will hold the horse and extra hay so she does not have to make a sudden change in food. I am putting all the horse things up front and also things that we will not need right away.
Pip - We are moving to Snohomish, WA north of you. Actually we have 10 acres between Snohomish and Monroe.
Janet - We leave here June 4, planning on three days on the road and hope to arrive late afternoon on June 6.
Sylvia - We took our dog to the vet today to update shots and make sure rabies was okay for traveling. When we waked in there was a lady with two whippets at the counter. They were sure cute, nearly identical looking and I bet they could outrun my standard poodle any day!
Annr - Some pools have lap counters available, you might have to ask. There is also a lap counter that fits on your finger available from Sprint Aquatics online. I have counted laps in the past and know about how long it takes me to swim a certain number of laps so sometimes I just swim for time and know that I have done at least that many.
Healing angels to all who need them and congratulations to those with victories. Now back to the packing. Sue still temporarily in SD.0 -
nice weather - guess i'll ride home today after work. will have a heavy backpack... ughhh, why do I put myself thru this... more calorie burn right?0

skeuhn - wow you're rich!

Saturday morning and spoke to daughter Karen on the phone. She has had breakfast and Phil was with her. She had lump and some nodes removed yesterday and sounds OK. Waiting on surgeon as she may be able to go home tonight. She sounded fine.
The Bene fibre is doing its job and losing total weight again. Lost 2 kg since Monday 18 May.
Food cals = 1669.
Training: Wii boxing (done) Jillian's BFBM and Bob's kettle-bells, walk dog after lunch
Rained all night. Blaize dog loves walking inn the rain, daft dog, as long as towelled when he gets back
Lesley in Tasmania0 -
Cynthia – so glad you went with your head held high! And moving cemeteries is a bit weird it happens here occasionally. But photos of the original place would be so valuable.
Terri – Love the comment about more life insurance and mourning in Maui.
Tere – That is a great idea! I got laid off in 2008 and have my own business now – I love it! Sometimes it is stressful, but when I get stressed I just remember some of the OMG situations when I worked in an office and feel so grateful that I am in charge.
Heather – finished Windows, it is really thought provoking, I loved the last line!
Today I worked in a client’s garden for 3 hours this morning and then did some embroidery this afternoon, but also found time to take a 45 min – relax in the yard with Levi.
I had a friend visiting on Tuesday, Wed, Thursday… and on Wed. we went on a walking tour in San Francisco – it is called City Guides and there are tons of different walking tours run by volunteers, our 2 hour tour was in North Beach – Little Italy… so fun and interesting! Did you know that Chinese fortune cookies were developed in San Francisco by the Japanese Tea Garden, and a Japanese cook – who knew!?
May goals:
Walk every day
Log everyday
Eat slower
Plan and do a fun thing every week
Week 1 – had a friend visit for a couple of days – went to our big second hand store (Savers) and for $23 got 3 pair of walking shoes and a pair of hiking boots – all very gently used. Score!
Week 2 – had Mom for a 4 day visit, tried some new recipes, salmon, shrimp and clams…. Yummy. Did a new walk with the dog that had a long tough hill, and we made it!
Week 3 – reconnected with my hiking friends and hiked Brushy Peak. Also made divinity as a test run for a candy class I am teaching this summer, excellent, and even better gave most of it away.
Week 4 – finished one more portion of my front yard “re-model” and went on a free “city guide” walking tour in San Francisco.

Hi everyone
I don't know how to explain black bones... but here goes. When they x-ray you - normal people have white bones. When my mom is x-rayed the bones are grey outline and very dark grey on the inside. The Dr's have given her various calcium builder pills trying to get her bones to absorb more calcium and not be so brittle.... Well good grief Dr's - she is 80 and the years of calcium not being absorbed properly is not going to get fixed in her lifetime!!
So when I went to see my mom she was up and moving around and very cheerful....and so would we all be if the Dr gave us morphine!! At least she can move and she is breathing deeply so the pneumonia shouldn't happen...fingers crossed.
I mowed lawn for 2 and half hours at my mom's house. We have hired a guy to mow but he doesn't do the trimming and neither does anyone else.... so Lillian did that today. 15,000 steps later ...done. Now I will go out and do the trimming on my own lawn because I see hubby is almost finished mowing
Oh...and 2 of my tomato plants froze last night and 2 didn't ...Jack Frost will probably get them tonight!!! And then I can go to the greenhouse tomorrow and buy some more....YEAH ...I like going to the greenhouse.
Later everyone

Hi friends. Boy am I boring! The excitement for the day was grocery shopping. Woo hoo. I just can’t make myself accomplish anything else! Starting Monday I’m planning on going to a water aerobics class on Monday and Friday morning; we’ll see if I can get my butt out of bed. We had to order sheets from the college for DD#2 because all their beds are a “special size”. sounds like a scam to me!
Michele: I wish I had half your energy!
DrKatie: I’m so sorry about Sebastian. What a gorgeous cat. I have become an expert on the subcutaneous fluids for cats in renal failure. Every cat I’ve had eventually got it except one. It is still hard though. About a year ago, we lost our 19 year old cat. Amazingly enough, this cat was the one who always had totally normal renal function.
Sylvia; great joke! I bet those kids did wear you down. I’m laughing about the groovy kitchen!
Annr: I agree! All good!
Katla: hooray for home grown tomatoes!
Joan: great dedication!
Heather: sounds like you are having a grand time
Joyce; hooray for a headache free night!
Beth: sorry you didn’t feel well last night!
Janet: I love garage sales, but as my parents moved and scaled down, I got everything. At one point, our 5-car garage with 25 foot ceilings was so full I could barely get my car in! we have had multiple sales and at one, we were still opening boxes at the end of the fourth and last day! Now I’m kind of tired of them LOL
Tere: so glad you had a wonderful vacation!
Carey: good job at the restaurant. I always look up the menu before I go out.
Fastforlife: congrats on the nsv!
Terri and Pip: thanks for the info on the compression sleeves!
Terri: I like agave nectar; it has a lower glycemic index than honey.
Alison: so glad the visit went well and dad was happy
Vicki: I am sorry you are having such troubles at work. (((hugs)))
Italy: I’ m sure that weight will come off quickly!
Sondre: welcome aboard! Come back often and post. My tip would be to get a fitbit or some other type of step
tracker. Wear it for a week, average your steps and add 500 as a goal for the next week. Very doable! I started at less than 2000 a day and now my goal is 8000 and I usually make it.
Does anyone know anything about how Suebdew is doing? She lives in Texas and I wonder if she is having flood problems.
Well I’m about to head to bed. Sleep well and take care my pals. Meg from Omaha

Meg, thank you for the warm welcome and the get started exercising tip. I will look into some type of step tracker this weekend. Sondre0

Long day. Grandkids all day. First at the studio, playing with clay, then lunch of egg salad sandwiches, cherry tomatoes and grapes, then swimming at the Y (it was raining hard all day long). Then, they came over for dinner. I made meat loaf and scalloped potatoes, canteloupe, corn on the cob and pineapple. Afterward, I let DGD#1 make chocolate cupcakes. She enjoyed that. Now they are home, and I'm in my jammies, ready for bed.
Tomorrow I'm going to Kansas City with a friend, and I'm driving the new van.
I hope everyone is having a great day.

Yanniejannie: I’m so sorry your DD was kicked in the hip last night. I’m not surprised that she’s riding today, but expect she’ll be giving that horse a wide berth in the future. She’s already bounced back, and it took me a week to get over lifting a saddle onto the horse’s back last week. I don’t usually notice my age, but riding does make me aware. :grumble: Today’s riding lesson featured trotting over uneven ground and posting for an hour. I’m thinking VERY fondly of Tennessee Walking Horses at this moment. :laugh: (For those who aren't into horses-Tennessee Walkers do not trot.)
Alison: Granddaughter time is precious. :flowerforyou:
Sue: I hope your packing and trip goes well. It is great that the lady who boards your horse will bring it along in a week or so after you arrive. She must be a very nice person.
Lesley: Your daughter’s situation sounds positive. Blaize is a very good sport.
Kim: Your fun activities are fabulous. I bet they’re helping your whole life seem more enjoyable.
I spent much of the afternoon scrubbing sooty looking mildew off of a boat fender (bumper). It looks much better. The next step is coating it with a UV protectant and then putting it back on the boat. My riding lesson was the reward for hard work, and the riding lesson itself is also hard work. I’m here to tell you that riding a horse is a LOT more fun than scrubbing mildew off of plastic. :bigsmile:

Terri, maybe you set your sights too low....what about mourning on a round the world tour? Lesley, the news sounds positive and hopeful for your daughter. Sondre, I highly recommend a step counter....it is very motivating.....mine has encouraged me to be more e spinach enchilada (no rice and beans) with a side of pico de gallo.....I ate some chips and salsa but with such a small entrée, it was a very sensible meal and Jake was happy to go out. There were two new students in my line dance class this morning.....they said they'd be back....I was surprised how big the class was on such a beautiful day. The frisky poodles went to the groomer today and they look extra beautiful.
Stats for today:
21,000 steps
three hours of dog walking in beautiful spring weather
two hour line dance class Barbie from beautiful NW Washington

Did 1 hr deep water. Tomorrow's plan is to do some DVD's of Stephanie Huxabee's. for about an hour.
Went to the Humane Society and dropped off my aluminum, then dropped off my coupons for them, then to Bi-Lo for items on sale that I had coupons for, then took the deep water class. After class was talking to the gal about exercises I can do in the shallow end. I didn't realize that most of the exercises that we do in the deep end can be done in the shallow end, too. Then stopped at the Salvation Army, but they didn't have anything nice.
Meg - as I recall when Jessica was in college, I had to buy her special sheets
Janet - I agreee, you can't really have too many signs for a garage sale. The thing that irks me is when there is a sign, but its past the date for the sale. Just take all those signs down in a timely fashion,
Joyce - I would say that no more marks is definitely an NSV! So sorry about the headaches
Kim - great system for getting a new vehicle
Sharon - good news on the ovaries and esophagus. Good thoughts being sent your way for the CT scan
tere - good luck with your business
lhannon - what a great exercise routine you have there
Went in the pool then vacuumed out the spa. Just came back from the cardiologist. Basically, Vince has three options, increase the Propathenone that he's taking now, change to a different medication, or have the ablation. For right now, he's opted to increase the Propatheonone. We shall see how that goes. He'll be on the max dosage that a person can take. I went with him because we're supposed to go to a Hickory Crawdads baseball game with the Newcomers and we didn't know what time he was going to get out of the doctor's. I already have my sandwich prepared, my carrots and tomatoes, and I'm bringing an apple and cherries with me. Not that you're supposed to bring your own food, mind you. But I have my pocketbook that's a mini-suitcase that I'm going to take. I know that they'll have bottles of water there and I'll take some extras for during the game.
annr (it's Becca, or am I wrong?) - great idea about the survey. Would really help to personalize those baskets. I was right -- it IS Becca. Where did the annr come from?
Read this in *Prevention* magazine: "Skip your workout for 5 days and your blood vessel function decreases significantly. That change alone can increase your risk of high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease".
As we were coming home from the cardiologist, Vince said "I can't believe I'm saying this, but maybe I should start exercising". He's the person who is waiting for a "Vitamine E" Now will he do it? That remains to be seen
Lillian - thanks for the explanation of "black bones". Never heard of it referred to like that. Would you care to trim my lawn? Actually, Vince said that if the weather is OK, we'll probably cut the grass Sunday after Jessica leaves.
Went to the ball game tonight with the Newcomers. It was nice, at least the rain held out. Then they had fireworks. But I do have to say that the food didn't entice me one bit, I was SOOO glad I'd brought my own.
Found out that the Y discontinued the yoga clas that I usually took on Wednesday mornings. Seems that for two weeks they only had 3 people so they cancelled the class. Glad I found out about it because I was planning to go to yoga this Wednesday. Looks like any yoga I do I'm going to have to do at home.
Michele in NC0 -
Hello everyone! Day 2 of sale done! Hopefully tomorrow will be great. We don't want to bring any more than we have to. We started packing up the house. 5 weeks then we will be in our new house.
Pip- my DH bought me a street strider do you know of anyone that uses one? I get it in a week. Now that we will be right on the biking trail I thought it looked like a fun thing to ride.
I will be able to ride the trail 13 miles right to my DSIL's back door. She is also right on the trail. Google maps says it will take an hour. I am looking forward to doing that. Hopefully I won't run into any bears!
Have a great night everyone!
Mary from Minnesota0 -
Michele - sure I will trim your lawn! Be down in the morning, put the coffee on ...lol ...that would be so cool.0

@exermom Annr is just a made up name...when I used to play online games. Kind of stands for AANR which is the initals for American Association for Nude Recreation. hahaha... but aanr didn't really make sense. My name is Rebecca but I go by Becca. Ohh husband found a Nudist resort in Hillsboro about 1.5hrs from us! Out in the middle of nowhere, but sad thing is we need a bigger car if we are going to camp there. Even though I DONT have to bring much clotheswise, tent and accessories won't fit in our small Chevy Spark!0
-
Mary - what is a street strider and where can you use it & how does it compare w/calories used with other types of exercising?
Katla - The boat fender you are scrubbing - will you be going out in it eventually? fishing?
My dsil was showing his mapmyrun app on phone and am going to try downloading to see if this would work for me. Was thinking of buying one of the garmin watches to give time, splits for roadwork. Anyone have advice?
Linda in Calif0 -
Kim, I think we all have decided not to go to the amusement park this year. Oldest grand daughter will totally understand since she has such a busy summer, my daughter and hubbie will to. It's the 8 year old that will miss it. But this year she will have her first year at church camp and they have a large swimming pool that will be used daily. She's our wild child. We will do something fun here in Evansville for the joint birthday and we won't be out in the blazing sun all day in swim suits. You are quite the expert on car buying, have it down to a science. I used to have a co-worker that had a 9 year old daughter that would do that. One time she went to the mall and would walk back and forth between two jewelry stores bargaining on a piece of jewelry. She just kept on saying the other store was going to bring the price down X amount for her and would they beat that price.
Cynthia, move a cemetary????? Preposperous! I hope they are treating it with the most reverent attitude that they can and am moving headstone and everything. How would they feel if one of their relatives was buried there????
Katla, I am crushed. For two years now I have thought that I had a friend named Katla. Now I find out it's just a made up name!!!! LOL
Janet and Mary, one time we actually cleaned out our 1 car garage and held a garage sale in the garage. It was so much better not to have to get up before the chickens and set it up, tables, clothes, etc. At the end of the day you just close the door and open it up the next day.
Terri Milwaukee, my CPAP goes in my nose only and has a strap for the top of my head and chin. The strap goes on very easy when I get up in the night for the potty. Now my sister has one that just about covers her whole face. It's looks awful.
Lisa, my husband sweats but it isn't like 'honey dripping off a hive'. He sweats!!!
Sylvia, days like that with the grand kids are to be treasured.
lillian, you explained black bones very well. That was pretty much what my Mom's back was for the last couple of years of her life.
Have a headache again tonight. I didn't have one until I watched Mr. Hollands opus. The end was so emotional and I cried. With that emotion, I feel like my Blood Pressure is way up and my head is about to explode. Then I went in the kitchen and filled the litter box so my head was bent down a lot. It's better after 2 Aleves. Such a wonderful movie. I hate to take it off my DVR. I have several shows that I keep just because they are so good. Speaking of husband, at supper tonight he said that he feels so spaced out. Now he did take a walk along the river in the heat and came home really sweating. He tries to walk 2 miles a day. I usually remind him to get his big glass of water after he walks but I forgot. I worry about that man. I think making the decision not to go to the amusement park is wise, if for no other reason it isn't safe for him. He will not accept that he will need a scooter when we go to Disney World next year. Of course when we see his neurologist and he gets a change in his Parkinson's medicine he may not be like this next year. I think one thing is that this ulcerative colitis has made him not care that much about life anymore.
Well nighty night girls, Joyce, Indiana0 -
Linda - a street strider is an elliptical bike. It is just like an elliptical machine you use at the gym. Google streetstrider. com and it gives you information on calorie burn. It is suppose to burn 50% more calories then riding a bike.
Mary from Minnesota0 -
morning kids~
well I am up and dressed.. I have just been horrible eating and exercising.. im sure if I stepped on the scale I would have gained 30- of the 50 I lost.. have to get a grip and get back with the program.. alot of my clothes are very snug.. I am ashamed of myself..0 -
Joyce: is that the name of the movie you watched?
Yes, I think moving a cemetery is a bizarre idea. The church probably did it for the money they could get from selling the (little bit of) land. It disturbs me, though, especially when I come across a grave with a lit candle (someone had been there that day) or with the inscription "Papa's well-deserved rest" etc.
Getting back to logging after being sick.
Hope we all have a good day.
Cynthia :flowerforyou:0
