WOMEN AGES 50 + FOR NOVEMBER 2017

Karen in Virginia - What occurred in Sutherland Springs (TX?). I guess I must have scrolled right over it. The only 'news' we watch now is "The Five" and local news at 6:00pm (to find out what is going on it town). I get tired of hearing the griping and complaining and finger pointing and name calling from all sides. I really don't care to get into the "Chicken Little" mentality either ... if the 'sky falls' I hope I am raised up with the smoke and not worry about the after-fire. I read and draw and paint and take care of my house, my husband, and myself and my pets. That keeps me busy enough.

Did Denise Austin's Hot Body Yoga DVD. Boy, did I get hot!. The plan for tomorrow is to do a 10 Minute Yoga DVD, hold my plank, then take the extremepump class.
Made butternut squash soup for me for later in the week. Then made some catfish. I tried frying some to see how it would be if frozen and then baked the rest.
At first I turned my watch AHEAD but then I remembered that we need to turn the clocks back! I hate when we have to do this, I really do. Wish we could stay on the other time all the time. I really like when an appliance/whatever changes time automatically and doesn't require anything from me. Guess I'm lazy!
Lisa - do you know that I never had shrimp and grits until I moved down here? I'd never heard of scrapple, either. Never had persimmon pudding until we moved down here. I absolutely and completely understand your not wanting to stop by. We'll get together after you get settled. When I heard about Texas the first thing I thought of was "thank goodness Lisa isn't in Texas any more"
Heather - thanks so much for the info about an induction burner. Sounds really interesting.
NYKaren - Vince and I are complete opposites, too. In a way, I think this is what really helps our marriage so much. I'm an extrovert, he's an introvert, things like that. I'm the one who first got him to go to the Newcomers and now even Jess says how proud she is that he's gotten so social.
Karen in VA - phew! I couldn't for the life of me figure out how the calories could be so high. Glad you found out. Now that's a pleasant surprise, huh? Much better than finding out that something is much higher in calories than you thought
Since we didn't do much decorating for Halloween this year, I reposted some of the pics from our Halloween last year on Facebook.
Making myself a cup of hot tea right now. A little cool here. With the time change (I guess that has something to do with it), I seem to be craving carbs and I definitely don't want them. I'm hoping that this tea will do in place of carbs.
Becca - I think I'll always be logging. If I don't, I just know that I'll start "over-guesstimating". Right now, I can go a few days (like I did at the wedding) making decent choices (but I know not the best). Maintenance is a life-long thing and so will logging. Wish I could say that it would end, but I know that for me it won't and I suspect others will be the same way, starting to "over-guesstimate". I jot down on a piece of paper what I had/will have during the day and then log it at one time. Well, really, maybe a few times a day. The other thing is, by doing it this way I can see what I should back off of (like today I realized that I probably should only have one piece of the spinach/feta instead of the 2 I logged so I cut it back to only one slice) How funny putting detergent in washing machines that you didn't need!
I'm feeling a bit sad today. Actually, quite a bit sad. Bryan won't talk to me and I'm trying to come to terms with the fact that I usually only see Denise once/year. Now that she and Pete are married, I know that he's going to dictate what they do and where they go (she's so dependent on him) and he has this thing about wanting to spend Christmas with his grandmother "because it may be her last Christmas". No one thought it would be my mother's last Christmas the year she died and that my grandfather would have many more Christmases. Pete can leave here early Christmas day and still be back in time to spend christmas with his grandmother. But I'm going to bet that he doesn't want to do that. Last year I invited a friend of Jess', her husband, their son, and his mother here. They came but Denise wouldn't even talk to them! This year I THINK Jess will be here, but her bf (Colby) won't. I'll ask Amanda again. But it's so sad when there aren't many of us. I did invite Pete's mother, father, and grandmother here, but I'm suspecting that they won't take me up on it.
Lenora - Tami is really pretty. Love Jenns' ring
Just checked Facebook. Maria had written something about "the trees turning color" and someone in her family said that she can edit her post to "tree's". I couldn't help myself, I posted that Maria was right, "trees" is plural, "tree's" is posessive. I'm not a grammar guru, but at least I know that much!!!
Michele in NC

Prayers for the families and community in TX. Such sad news.
Michele, plan to make it a happy Christmas no matter who comes. Don’t let others ruin it for you.
Eating went better today. Tracked my food for the first time in a week. I’ll weigh in tomorrow and see what damage I did. Hopefully it’s not too bad. Mood was better today but I had to work at it. I’m dreading being around people tomorrow and being “on”. Acting like everything is fine when it’s not is exhausting.
Terry in VT and headed to bed and book.2 -
Well my ramen was properly hot! I made it with two tilapia fillets, so it pumped up my calories to 1000 calories, 40 g fats, and a whopping 69 g protein for today. Each fillet is only 110 calories, 2 fat and 21 g proteins. A good food choice!
Becca2 -
Done with the marathon, 3057 calories. He met his goal, beat his last years time and ran without stopping, will type more after I rest up10

Call me crazy but I love to see other people happy and succeeding .
Good Evening Friends,
Allie, I know you were drained after that drive but it sure sounds like a successful trip. I know your Dad had a ball.
Lisa, so glad you made it to NC. I hope you can rest some soon.
Pip, I hope you had a good run.
NYKaren, good for you on going with your DH. I’m also glad he showed his appreciation. *sweet*
Allie, great pic of all of you. You look fantastic. The photo book for your dad is a wonderful gift.
Heather, I hope your DDIL doesn’t get too nervous but obviously she is very smart and knows her material so it should go fine. She is a beautiful young lady.
Lanette, if I told my DH I wouldn’t be talking much he would act the same way as yours and grin, but the truth is my DH is the one that never stops talking and talking and talking and talking……. And talking
It is so sad about the shooting in Texas. You just never know where something is going to happen next. We surely need to cherish every moment of life. My thoughts and prayers are with all the people there.
to all the Newbies. Come often and join in the chat. This thing works!! Please sign your post with what you want to be called. It makes it easier for us to respond to you. Also a location is great, be it specific or general. We are happy to have you join us.
I changed the clocks in my room before I went to bed last night. I woke up at 4:00 this morning and never really went back to sleep. I finally got up about 6:00 and only then remembered the time change. I did expect to take a nap today but that never happened so I’m off to bed soon and it’s now 9:30.
Sending love, good thoughts and cool sunshine to all of you.
I Love you

Dentist today ... in just a few hours.
She is removing the badly damaged tooth, and that is OK with me because a) that tooth has had so much work done on it, I don't think it is salvageable, and b) if it is salvageable, it would cost me a fortune to salvage it (we're talking $5000+ at this point).
However, for some reason I can't put my finger on ... I feel sad about losing that tooth.

Heather: Your daughter in law is gorgeous, smart, & wise. No wonder you are so pleased with your son's choice.
Becca: I can't guess how long you'll be logging, but I will be logging for the foreseeable future.
(It keeps me honest with myself.)
Kate UK: I tried kettle bells and didn't do so well. I lifted poorly and gave myself a cranky back that lasted awhiIe. I am focusing on yoga instead, along with walking, riding & other cardio activities. :flowerforyou:
Pip: You and Kirby look happy and at peace together.
I love the photo of the wheelchair cyclist. It is a good example of someone overcoming limitations and excelling in sports.
DH & I did some shopping today, but we've been pretty quiet. Our dog is still having health issues and we took him to the vet. He now has another round of medication for digestive problems. Hopefully this will lead to a better situation.
I am so sorry about the needless deaths in Sutherland Springs, TX. My heart goes out to the community and the families of those who died.

Hi Gals,
Allie and Rita – great pictures!
Pip – congrats!
I got some yard work done today in my own yard! There is much to do but a cool day with sun and a couple of hours and out I went, what I got done is really not that exciting but a good start on a bigger project. My new neighbors are nice folks but he is very particular… and I have trees, and some shrubs by the shared fence, he cleans up the leave every hour! If there is one or 30, I have even heard him out with a flash light picking up leaves after dark. LOL On of my bushes is touching the fence, and he says it rubs in the wind and is both ruining the fence and makes a squeaking sound that keeps them up at night…I’ve never heard the squeak, but I am not that attached to the shrub – however it is quiet large – so I am slowly trimming it back off the fence, some of it is how much time I have and some is the yard waste can space to get rid of it…it quite cracks me up that this is such a big deal to him, such a 1st world problem…

I too worked in the yard as much as I could today. Our highs this week will only be in the thirties.
Prayers for our world as another senseless tragedy happened in Texas. Margaret 1 -
Kate - correct me if I am wrong I think you are working with a 13 kg kettle bell which would be approximately 26lbs. You're doing a fantastic job!
Allie - you look fantastic! Great pictures!
Lenora - very nice looking family!

So sad about the shooting today. I am really weary of this crap.
We just need to be thankful for every day.
Exciting about the marathon, Pip.

Mary - Thank you ... I'm very proud of them.
Katla - I will be tracking from hereon out; but, when I eat something I know I shouldn't because I am craving it; it makes me want to 'kick myself in the butt'; but, it is tracked anyway. Sundays are 'exercise-free days' for me; but, I sure think I need to jump up on that treadmill anyway.
Michele - Thanks, we think Tami is pretty and has such a fun personality. Jenn has a 'good heart'; but, I guess in some ways we are too much alike and we tend to tip-toe around one another. She's not happy with her weight; but, at this point she does have the discipline to lose weight. The MD who did their health insurance physical told her that he needed to get her 'emotional being' in check before they attempt to worry about her weight issue. She won't take the medication he Rx'd for her if it doesn't make her feel 120% better in less than a month. When she went to my Neurologist for 'migraines' and stopped taking the medication, she basically fired her as a patient. She told her she was 'wasting her time and her money if she wasn't going to follow her orders'. That would be embarrassing ... to be 'fired by your doctor'. He has put her on a medication for depression, if it means she cannot drink while on it, the drinking will come first. I hate to say that; but, it is the truth. Will and Tami and Mallory are not coming home for Thanksgiving, because of how they feel towards her. I hate it, but, that's life. I'm not going to let her try to drive a wedge into my family unit. My boys are my life and my granddaughters are, too. I can deal with it but, it is difficult.
It's been hard to come to grips that just because of Jenn's actions my family isn't as close as we once were. She's even posted on FB that 'if I ever got pissed with her I'd run her off with a stick'. I wanted to post, 'yeah, haven't found it yet'; but, she had already blocked me. I had a friend request from her the other day; I accepted it, then went in and 'blocked' her. I don't need the added stress of being blocked and not able to respond 'in kind'. I just sit and listen and go, 'mmmhhhhmmmmhhhh ... yeah ... whatever you say' (she is ALWAYS right).
HAHAHAHAHA! Grammar is something that got 'drilled' into our heads by our mother who was a HS English/Lit/Grammar teacher. I used to correct my grandchildren when they would say things like, "I'm done eating." "NO, you are 'finished' ... you're only 'done' if you are a steak. Bring that knife and fork over here and let me check you out." They'd just look at me. Sad thing is they hear it all the time. It has become so frequent that even TV commentaries use it a lot. Louis will look over at me and 'correct' what they've said, like they could 'hear' him. It's no longer as funny as it was to start with. These people are supposedly 'educated'. Sure, I make mistakes. I don't always 'proofread' what I have typed and posted. I drop the 'r' of 'your' all the time. English is one of the 'hardest' languages to learn and do it correctly. All the words that 'sound alike' but 'spelled differently' but change the entire meaning of a sentence if used incorrectly.
When Mother was still alive we'd see one another a lot more often than we do now; but, each one of us have our own families and then they have their own traditions. I'd just like to be able to see Will and Tami more than just once a year - when we go out to stay for a week. About all I can 'wish for' is that they will surprise us again and come sometime during the spring. The bad thing about it is that she and her 'ex' share custody of Mallory. It has become more of an issue now that she has remarried. He isn't very flexible about things, unless it is in 'his favor'. Tami said she really thought it would end up being a legal issue and they'd have to go back to court over it. But, she is going to let him make that move. The Judge had chewed him out the last time they appeared in front of him over something trivial ... he kept trying to take Mallory away from her - no reason - just to yank her chain. I think he is intimidated by Will. Will doesn't take 'anything' off 'anybody'.
Weigh-in on Tuesday. I just hope I haven't gained anything and that my 'water' is up in %. This weekend it seems like I have just 'grazed'. PT on Wednesday at 4:00pm; then again on Friday at 8:00AM ... which means I will have to be showered, dressed, made up and ready to leave the house about 7:00am since I don't know what 'morning traffic is like'. OH, well. Get my hair cut on Thursday, so I will go ahead and get all my ducks in a row on Thursday.
I 'try' to pre-track my food each day. Usually, it works well for me; but, today - ate a decent breakfast; nothing until we went out to eat and ate 1/2 of what I got; then totally wrecked it by eating a caramel apple. Oh well! I'll get back on it this week. I think. I just want to break through that 160lb mark, and be able to stay under it (on my way to my goal). UGH!
Lenora0 -
Lenora, I don't know if you still don't know but a lone shooter went to a small church in SanAntonio Texas and starts shooting. So far I think the death count is 26 and I don't know if they count the shooter I that or not. Many were injured also. Pastors daughter killed, woman in her 3rd trimester killed. I know that shouldn't matter but it just makes the heart hurt even more. When will it stop?
When my girls were in night school and went to prom, it is a pretty dress up affair. Some families spend hundreds on it because of the meal before going out, hiring the limo, the dress, make up, hair, corsage, tux. And. Can't remember how much the ticket it. Thinking back on it, I'm not really sure either of my girls wanted to go to try prom all that much. One went with a fellow youth group guy from church. They had never dated and never did. Just good friends. Michelle went with a really good friend also. One of the big things that is expected f ong time couples is that they rent a hotel room and 'express their love' . I'm glad that didn't happen with my girls. Michelle's prom date was a homosexual and I felt very safe with her. I think Christina wanted to go so she could glare at her ex boyfriends date!
Well the weather just blew on by today. We did have some heavy rain along with lightning and heavy thunder but nothing damaging. So,stokes the thunder felt like the house was going to break apart. The cats were totally unimpressed.
Rita,, loved your picture. Were those holes in the rock actual homes from many years ago?
Machca, also loved you pictures. So serene and relaxing.
We had our multigenerational choir this morning. The kids and youth was up in the choir loft only for announce,Mets and our song. But the youth I was sitting next to was texting the whole time she sat there. Ther needs to be a way of turning that off and the kids don't know how.
Heather, beautiful picture of your daughter in law.

Worst dental experience ever.
Not my dentist's fault. She was great. It was the fault of my previous dentist and my extra-long tooth.
She had to break my jaw bone ... well, drill quite a hole in it, all around the root which was embedded in the bone. She also had to cut my gum open. 3 stitches.
Maximum amount of freezing ... didn't freeze everything because I had a bad infection in there. About as painful as trying to pass a kidney stone (and I've been there, done that with a kidney stone that got lodged on it's way out and had to be surgically removed).
Panic attack mid-procedure. I've never experienced anything like it.4 -
So sorry Machka! Hope it all heals up well.
I first heard of the church massacre through your posts, but have now read the news. These days I feel so much part of you all in the US and have a much greater understanding of your communities. My heart goes out to everyone, especially in that little town.
I woke up early worrying about the babysitting. My DDIL has been sending detailed diaries of the kids routines over to us all by email and I started to wonder if we ought to offer to go over earlier to help out the nanny. We are meant to get there Thursday pm to pick up DGS from school. It all looks so complicated with a toddler and two older kids who are going in two totally different locations and need equipment and dressing up stuff! How did we ever cope???? :sad: I will text the nanny and ask her if she is ok with the arrangements.
Breakfast arrives!

Marcelyn – I never knew that, and I grew up in Texas, where football, and Homecoming in particular, are practically a religion, as you know. For the rest, something Marcelyn already knows - most schools try to schedule their homecoming game against their weakest opponent so they’ll have a win on the night.Marcelyn - The term homecoming is used because Homecoming is the first game played at a school’s home stadium after coming back from their first away game at another school.
Rye, honey, it scared me, too. I realized after I got here that, beforehand, I deliberately never looked at the entire journey at once on a map, just planned out each day, one-by-one, while I was figuring out where we were going and how we’d get there. My own coping mechanism, I guess—easier to cope with the thought by cutting the journey into small pieces. I just looked at the whole thing, and it was 1,757 miles, all told. Not counting minor foul-ups like turning around and going back.Rye: Lisa, stay safe on the rest of the trip! I know it is just projecting my limitations and insecurities- but your trip scares the willies out of me!
Pip – congrats to you AND Kirby!
Michele – Thank you so much for understanding! Also have a nephew in NC, and he had the same reaction. I’d never had shrimp and grits until Corey and I took a trip to Biloxi, and I had them at a seafood restaurant that overlooks the Gulf of Mexico. Now I try them wherever I go that offers them up. This was really, REALLY good, but they must have used heavy cream in the sauce, because my lactose intolerance kicked in at levels that made me a little hard to live with in a small hotel room afterward! Pretty sure that’s why Corey went and took a bath… Both sound and fury, you know….Michele: Lisa - do you know that I never had shrimp and grits until I moved down here? I'd never heard of scrapple, either. Never had persimmon pudding until we moved down here. I absolutely and completely understand your not wanting to stop by. We'll get together after you get settled. When I heard about Texas the first thing I thought of was "thank goodness Lisa isn't in Texas any more"
I didn’t hear about Sutherland Springs until last night, when Corey was flicking through the news on his phone. The entire town’s population is less than 500 by many accounts, and now 26 are dead… it’s almost incomprehensible. That’s the size of the town I grew up in, in East Texas. I cannot begin to imagine their grief.
Machka – I know I’d be glad to get rid of that tooth by now!
Up at 2:30 again – I was hoping with the time zone change and the Daylight Saving Time change, I’d sleep until at least 4:30, but my body apparently can tell time no matter where I am. More over on my blog.
Love y’all,
Lisa in NC

Thanks!
It took 1.5 hours to get it out, and we had to take breaks several times (especially when I went into the panic attack ... I've never screamed in pain at a dentist office before and I was shaking uncontrollably for about 10 min while she and her assistant tried to calm me).
In fact, I've been cold, dizzy, and shaky all evening so far. 3 hours later I'm just starting to feel a little bit better. But she did say that because she had to cut my gum open and drill out the bone, I'm going to be in a lot of pain and have a swollen face for the next 48 hours ... when the freezing comes out. She's given me quite an extensive pain management program.
I can only have cold, plain vanilla ice cream, yogurt, and Ensure for the next 48 hours ... not even "soft food".

Machka sounds so so painful. Follow the directions of your dds to the letter, it's going to be challenging, but you will heal. Try to sleep through as much of this as you can. Also, listen to soothing music or meditation tapes to see you through--I can only imagine the pain. Sending and peace as you heal.
Didn't get any yard work done, but spent time with DH and that is more important than raking leaves yes? I do plan on hitting the gym afterwork and if it isn't too wet, I will get out the blower and move some leaves around. My tomato plants are ready to be pulled out of the ground, I had the best heirloom harvest ever. So no more tomatoes sprinkled with salt for breakfast
Heather sounds like a daunting schedule for the 3 grands, just remember, the best part for them is that you both are with them and if something falls through the cracks, so be it.
Peaceful Monday, NYKAREM2 -
DST: hate the semi annual change, throws me off for weeks. Yuck.
Dishwashers: use ours for Tupperware storage. Find handwashing dishes meditative ;}
Only caught up thru page 10 of 15 but need to sleep. ttyl.
Terry Could the cusp of tears be simply exhaustion from doing without power for so long? {{hugs}} What a jerk your ex was/is!
Heather "... need to visit the pharmacy and the Chinese supermarket for frozen dim sum and fermented black beans. I've got some bubble wrap with me." how will you use the bubble wrap? Heart goes out to you for the loss of your daughter, the post-natal depression and your son's crippling anxiety. Glad for the greyhounds and girlfriend, sounds like some healing going on.
Katla Hope your DH can accept your need to see Hazel now. Then you can both go and stay where he feels comfortable in January. Like Barbie and Jake, Joe and I always stay in hotels for our privacy. Think it's more common and acceptable nowadays. When my parents were alive my relatives would have been hurt if we hadn't bunked with them, no matter how crowded and challenging that could be!
Becca great pic of the service dogs. Con VERY gratulations on the NSV size 20 AND the scale victory. Wow!
AZ Mary and janetr belated best birthday wishes!
Joyce Terrible tornadoes in Indiana on the news tonight, hoping all is well with you and yours.
Sharon thank you for sharing your story. How brave you are to return to that job.
Rye Quinn is a beaut! What a sweetie.
Wendy: You may never know it but your compassionate example will have its effect. None the less, having someone outside the compassion-challenged family care for the animals sounds like a good plan.
Barbie Broke in my new waterproof walking shoes yesterday. Woo HOO and thanks for the recommendation!
Barbara, the Southern Oregon Coastie AHMOD who is grateful to be feeling a little better every day.

Machka - wow, feel so sorry for you. Do they have an "oral surgeon" in your area? Too late now, but you should have been "out" for it in my opinion. Sounds like it was a much bigger job than a regular dentist could handle.
Now that it's all over, you'll feel better soon. HUGS!!
