Sharon Is your relationship with Jason such that you could ask him if he is using cocaine or another substance? If so, asking could be throwing him a lifeline. If not, all you can do is keep your eyes, ears, & arms open.4

Had a great app on ipad to time my KB workout but it seems to have disappeared and I'm going crosseyed trying to find it or something similar on App store, downloaded a couple of apps but not what I want

Hi ladies,
Pip, another great picture of you and your honey. Old, no your seasoned.
Michele, I’m with you, frozen grapes in the summer are my go to snack.
Joyce, glad the dr upped your medication. Hopefully it will help. When I had both knees replaced I had to take a shower on a stool. You’re right, it is a tight fit but feels so good.
((Lenora))
Mary, thanks. I’m enjoying the kettlebells.
Machka, guess you will have to start selling the jam too. I do the same thing. I get an idea and think it will be easy and it never is. Wish I could be there to sit with you and have tea and scones with jam. Sounds like you are going to be busy planning your events.
Sharon, I was checking out alcohol ink myself a while ago to paint jewelry scales (not the weighing scales). What does Jheri use it for? Hold off thinking Jason is using cocaine until you are sure. Does he live near by or can you contact him or have a friend contact him. I worry whenever someone stops engaging. Please remember to take care of yourself.
Wendy, can you do some research on that insurance company and see if they are reputable? If you have some evidence that they has problems you have proof that might encourage your DH to change companies. Or call other companies and see what they would have done in the same situation. Check out the Better Business Bureau. I think you can also report companies there.
NYKaren, good for you doing great planning. I’ve got to get back on track but just can seem to just do it. Got to do some soul searching to see where I’m blocked.
Kelley, I also have been thinking a lot for those Turpin kids. I feel the urge to take them in may arms and never let go. And this is a family we know about. So much abuse is right there and never seen or reported.
Margaret, I love Mysteries at the Museum. Haven’t watched it in ages.
Allie, hope you father is doing well. ((Hugs))
As for alcohol, never liked the taste of any of it so that has never been a problem. My drug of choice has always been food.
Hugs to all, Terry in VT
Well then, I look seasonly old!2 -

Happy Friday ladies!
First, are any of you spiralizer fans? I bought a "Veggetti" several years ago when I had tons of zucchini in the garden. After summer was over, it got shoved to the back of the utensil drawer. It was OK and I liked sautéed zucchini pasta, but basically screwing the vegetable into the device was a little tiresome, lol. The hand-cranked ones were expensive and I couldn't see spending a lot just to make zucchini into spaghetti noodles.
I had lunch with my girlfriend Barrie yesterday, who has lost nine pounds in the past month or so by eating a lot of spiralized veggies. She has one with a crank and five different blades - spiralizes not only zucchini and yellow squash, but winter squash, redbeets, you name it. She is gluten free so this has filled the pasta niche for her.
She said she has been using it for three weeks now and still hasn't lost interest, lol. So it must be a good thing.
I believe spiralizers have been discussed in the group before but I didn't pay attention to the information because my brain was focused on zucchini noodles! Sorry!
Of course, I had to order one - the price is now pretty reasonable on these hand-cranked ones. I'm thinking this will be a great way to make salads more exciting in addition to being a pasta substitute - there are a lot of neat recipes on the internet now. DH is even interested - maybe I can get him to take a bite of salad! Will have to be drowning in salad dressing though. Sigh.
Broken Brain - I liked episode #2 on the brain/gut connection. I got an email from Dr. Hyman's group about how to clean out my pantry.
Well, I am not ready to toss out all dairy, sugar, fruits, and gluten. But what I took away from it is to eat as many colorful veggies as possible, have some good fresh fruits especially berries, cherries, etc. Cut way back on gluten/breads/processed foods. I thought it was interesting they mentioned even a little gluten can have a bad impact on the brain even if a person isn't celiac. Perhaps.
Regarding sugars, I also am not going to toss out maple syrup and honey-I don't use that much. I rarely use added white or brown sugar. For sugar, I prefer Reese cups!
Barrie told me yesterday that new food labeling laws are coming out that has to list "added" sugars! Great idea. I'm going to lobby MFP to add that category.
About the Turpin kids: we had a similar case here in our own small community last fall. Parents basically starved their son and kept him hidden in the house for years. I don't get the paper so am unsure how it finally got reported, but since he's been in foster care he's gained a huge amount of weight and grown several inches. I think he's a teenager now. I too am curious as to why it never concerned the neighbors, although neighborhoods do turn over and it's possible after a couple years, perhaps none of the new neighbors were even aware there was a child in the house? They are throwing the book at the parents.
More later!

Talked to mom yesterday. She did call back and was lucid and in a good mood at least. We had a nice chat this time. Told her I would make it a point to call her every Thursday. She was pleased with that.
I think for a goal this year ( work better than resolutions for me) is to call family once a week and not wait for them to call me.
DH first allergy shot done, now I have to go for testing on Wednesday. Will get all test results back that day.

Machka, Heather, Barbie, Lanette, Terry, Michelle, Okie, Terry thanks for sharing your experiences, supportive comments and suggestions. I have been logging alcohol and sweet treats. Dr. said concern was moving from total CICO to quality of calories in. Tuesday was AF, Wednesday was 5 oz wine divided into 2 servings, Yesterday was AF again. No ice cream so far
Baby steps.
Thunder last night announced a terrific hailstorm. Tumble was very curious, nosed and licked but refused to go out onto it. This morning it looks like ice crusted snow. :noway: Noooo! :noway: No ice here on the Coast! They PROMISED!
Car repairs: When I try to call a car noise to Joe-the-retired-mechanic's attention, he leans over and turns the radio up. There! It's fixed! Had to give up my little wannabe Land Rover when the transmission went out the second time. First was covered by warranty. Second would have cost $4K for a re-manufactured one. Too much to put into a 12 yr old vehicle, I thought. Now I'm not so sure. Have car payments on a car I really don't like much instead of bopping around in one that I loved.
Marcelyn beef to Texas? Is that like coals to Newcastle?
Katla none of us needs the stress of "having to argue" with people hired to work. Listen to yourself and look for a better match.
Machka, thanks...I'll try to be open to feeling better...
Meggie had to look up buti yoga. Sounds challenging but also fun. Good for you!
Sharon, Denied? Grr. Sounds like you have some good
energy to fight this wrongheaded decision. Couragia!
Lanette, "... to binge on kale" That (re-)program would make your fortune!
Lenora "could not refuse the package with the refill of a drug that I was told to go off"??? Ridiculous. Does the mail order pharmacy have an appeal or ombudsman process? $125 would be too much for me to shrug off...
pip Santa's got an armful of cutie! Omigosh, bikini babe!
Beth, I remember Ovaltine. Yuck. Would have to be really sleep deprived... of course back then we didn't know about lactase deficiency... :sick: Ditto what you said about the wise words of these women coming back to us later. They resonate, help us to grow. What is a yoghurt strainer?
Allie so glad your Dad made it through the 'scopy ok. Glad he has distractions to carry him through to next week. Praying for him. . . and you.
Sharon Could whatever Jason is doing be affecting Harmony? She's seems thin/dark circled. Wonder if she knows something's changed and worrying herself sick?
Pat BRR, that brings back memories. Can't believe its North Carolina :noway: What bizarre weather!
Joyce "competitive grooming" LOL!
Kelly you are right, someone knew something was wrong... and didn't call CPS. A lesson to us all.
Mindful and WARM Hugs to all,
Barbara, the Southern Oregon Coastie AHMOD. 4 -
Oregon Barbara I use a regular strainer and a commercial size coffee filter to strain my yogurt, ricotta, etc.
Lanette I'm with you. Not ready to give up all dairy, gluten, fruit. My goal is to have a diet consisting mainly of vegetables, fish, poultry, eggs, nuts, yogurt, heavy cream, grass-fed butter, olive oil, avocado and berries, with occasional coconut oil, legumes & grains. I feel good on that diet.
Ovaltine I found this vintage ad:

Hi all,
We went to our nearest largish town today to exchange our soda stream cylinder. Can’t do it locally. Walking around counted for my bonus exercise as we parked at Lidl a lidl walk away. :laugh: The town is run down and a bit depressing, but there are cheaper shops there. In Lidl we bought three bottles of champagne
at a ridiculous price and lots of continental meats etc. In town we found some smart trainers for DH that we have been looking for for ages. Of course, they weren't in the sale, but they were perfect. 
So a good day.
Dinner tonight is chorizo and lentil stew. Yummo! Friday night is wine night, so we are having Lidl Pinot Noir with it.
Must get on and cook it.
Beth - I incubate my yoghurt for ten and a half hours, because I like it more tart. I use an ordinary wire mesh colander to strain it , lined with three overlapping large, industrial coffee filters. That way I don't have to wash yogurt off anything. Just rinse the colander. I buy the coffee filters from Amazon. I make two kinds of yoghurt - one I make in a Pyrex bowl on the trivet which is more creamy for fruit etc and one which I make in the liner and strain and use like cottage cheese.

Heather Is one higher fat content, or is the main difference in the straining? And why the Pyrex bowl?

Heather & Karen: We have our cleaner come every other week. She skipped us to take a trip to Mexico once, but had her daughter come to the neighbor's house that week. She has also missed due to other family issues. We pay her well for her visits, but she rushes through, leaves pictures on the wall kitty-wampus and doesn't mop or dust as well as we'd like. She expects $100 per visit & works half a day. We are thinking about a change & will pursue it when we get back from our upcoming trip. :grumble:
Karen: Lanette gave me a link to the first broken brain episode and I watched it with interest. How do you get the rest of the episodes? :huh:
Lanette: How do you get the rest of the episodes? :huh:
Heather: "I'm pleased to say that, at the moment, my brain and body seem to be on top form, but I am also aware that that could change through no fault of mine. Sometimes we are just dealt a bum hand in life. I'm giving myself the best odds through my lifestyle, but luck is not a lady."
I feel the same way as you about giving myself the best odds in life that I can. Finding MFP, and this group of women, has been a huge help in that quest. :flowerforyou:
Terry in VT: "Katla, no use paying for a housekeeper who stresses you out, Start looking for a new one now so that when you want to change you are ready. You are paying her, it isn’t free so you should get what you want."
I agree completely.
Allie: I'm happy that your dad is currently home with you & hope for a very good outcome from the next surgery on Wednesday.
Kim: I agree with you about the cleaner. We'll be looking for someone new as soon as we get back from our trip to see grandchildren. :grumble:
Sharon: Arrow was a jerk yesterday. He bucked during lunging and was unresponsive while I rode. His owner warned me that he'd had too much stall time since I last saw him. She was right. :mad:
Wendy: I'm sorry for the troubles with your stolen credit card, and also that your DD is moving away. (((HUGS)))
Pip: Love the photo. I wish my body looked that good. :flowerforyou:
(((Joyce)))
Lanette & Karen: We went gluten free for a while. The food was higher in calories, less satisfying, AND it didn't improve DH's health situation. We went beck to our regular foods and simply count calories. There are people with gluten allergies, but neither of us is in that group. :noway:
Arrow was a big jerk yesterday. His owner warned me that he was barn sour from lack of work. She was absolutely right. I am so glad I don't own the beast! Working with him is increasing my skills, though.

Episode 3 of Broken Brain is available now: https://brokenbrain.com/03-dementia/ and looks like it will be up for the next 24 hours. Topic is dementia and alzheimers.
Their email notification doesn't seem to be on top of it!
Here's the link for episode 4 on ADHD: https://brokenbrain.com/04-adhd/ It's not available now but probably will be tomorrow.
HINT: every day or so, search https://brokenbrain.com/05, then 06, 07, 08 and Google or Bing will find the rest for you. Hopefully all 8 episodes will be available. It looks like Episodes 1 and 2 are still available, at least right now.

Karen - It's purely that I use one yogurt as a "cream" to go with fruit or to make raita . That one I boil in my non stick liner then I transfer it to a Pyrex bowl, put it on the trivet in my stainless liner and incubate as normal. I do it in the bowl so I don't have to disturb the "set". The other one I boil and leave in the liner to incubate, because I'm tipping it out to strain for several hours. I use whole milk for both.
The gluten thing I find very annoying. Unless you really are coeliac there is no reason not to eat wheat. Wholewheat is a very healthy food and half the world subsists on it very happily. And they are much healthier than we are, including those communities who live to a very old age. I have cut down (not cut out) on carbs in general because it is an easier way of keeping calories in check. I feel good on a diet very similar to Karen's , but I do eat occasional red meat and I'm afraid I do love preserved pork products like Parma ham. Communities that eat a lot of them seem to live a long time too. Those old shepherds up in the mountains living on bread, goats cheese and dried sausage. :laugh: Yes, lots of veggies, lots of fruit, lots of beans. Yum.
By the way, my poo stick test came back normal. Hooray!

Beth let us know how the great yogurt experiment turns out....I make mine with whole milk, but have tried it with 1% and it's pretty good. I strain my yogurt in cheese cloth over a colander and check it cause I don't want to have yogurt cheese! I'm with Heather, I like it pretty tart so I let it incubate a little longer. It is most definitely more economical than buying the Fage yogurt I enjoy. My 1/2 gallon of milk costs about $2.29 vs. Fage already made yogurt $7.00 for the same amount of yogurt.
Lanette and Terry Maintenance really is hard for me, what has spurred me on (besides checking in with you all) is the recognition that I don't feel well when I overdo it. If I pay attention to how poorly I feel, and remember how much better I feel when I control my food choices, I can keep from the comfort food binges. But for sure it is a swinging pendulum, and I can't let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

Machka, have a scone for me please. my DD starts classes next week. She is taking Statistics, Java, Physics and Algebra. Good thing she quit her job. I think she is going to be very stressed. After this semester, she just has her internship over the summer and then she will graduate with her Associate’s degree. She is a late bloomer but I’m so gal she did it. She is on the Dean’s list and hopes this semester doesn’t bring down her GPA. Then she wants to find a job with benefits and will pay for her Bachelor’s.
Pip, OMG does your body look terrific. I can only dream of one day looking like that.
Lanette, I buy the spiral veg. A little expensive so I don’t buy them very often.
Rita, I like your goals.
Karen, I love the old ads.
Katla, sounds like Arrow needs a kick in the butt.

thanks for thinking of me Katla. I agree with you that Pip has a beauty body and I don't think she looks old. She looks like someone who will be attractive, strong and healthy all her life. No wonder she has got a great partner who appreciates her and does so much with her. They look so happy together.
I have been thinking about you and Arrow. I think that if I had to choose a "spirit animal" mine would be the horse as I identify so closely to their ways. They were created to move their bodies constantly and that is also how I feel.
I used to have a third job, as well as bee keeping and travel agency. I worked at a preschool and I had to be in the office for four hour stretches. My work would be finished in 30 minutes and then I would have to sit and wait for the phone to ring etc. I began to call it my prison and I would watch the clock. Minutes dragged by excrutiatingly slow. Drove me crazy. I swore I would never take another inside job. And if I was a horse, I would hate to be kept in a stall. horse prison.
I look at things from his point of view. How bored Arrow must be. How crazy. I wish I could buy him (long distance) and put him with a small herd of horses on hill country with a stream running through his pasture. If he MUST be locked in a stall, I would try to make it as interesting as possible, give him a horse ball toy where he can lick it for a treat, leave music on for him and give him hay through a slow feeding net. Obviously, he must get SOME turn out time but it isn't enough if he's feeling sour and unhappy.
I am glad that you have learned things from Arrow. Obviously he has more lessons to give you. Keeping my horses happy is a priority to me. And they, in return,keep me very happy too. I'm not trying to lecture you or make you feel guilty at all. I am just trying to get you to see things from the horse's point of view. I am always trying to teach this to my students who come for riding lessons. My favourite "lessons" are taking my students to the beach or forest for life lessons out of the arena. Wow, we've had some big lessons out in the real world! Learning to be courageous and control our fears and progress little by little. Learning to have empathy for the sentient being who is in our power. We have the power of God over our pets, large or small. You feel angry with him because he did some dangerous and unco-operative behaviour. You want him to be a good angel always. Are you a good angel always? LOL. I'm not. Horses are mirrors. Wendy

Janetr- I got one made by Briefton's off Amazon. It has five blades and cost around $30 with tax. I saw a lot of similar ones with varying prices. I bought this particular one because that's the one Barrie uses, lol. It comes with 3 ebooks. Maybe something like this is what you have in mind?
Good luck!

We have a new Olympic sport going on in our house. It's called competitive grooming. My two felines can really get into it. And it never ends well. They start out grooming an ear and they end up biting or strangling each other.
Joyce, Indiana where it reached 28 degrees today!!!!!!
What a clear and vivid picture you painted of the cats! My boys do this too, but they would not have made it past the Olympic trials. They get tired and just collapse on each other in a ball!
Hoping the Prescription dosage change helps you!

Katla - You have no obligation to Arrow. If the stables don't care enough for him to make his life happy and fulfilled I don't see why it should fall on your shoulders. It sounds as if they are not doing their job and are neglectful. Why not find a better stables who look after their horses properly. It is not your responsibility.

Sick here today. Sore throat, dizzy achy- looks like the illness that fell my co-workers last week finally caught up to me. I have the weekend off, thank heavens. So I’m in bed.
Pip, you look like you are crazy in shape! Good on you.
My love and thoughts to you all with such challenging times in your families right now.

Kate, hooray on the find a good app.
So my daughters and reacting to their Aunt's death, because I was a single Mom most of their growing up years, my oldest sis babysit for me while I worked and when school would start would take them school clothes shopping, etc. The oldest one said to me this morning, promise me you'll be around for at least 20 years yet. The youngest piped up more like 20-30 years yet. Oh my, I'd be 98 lol But it's nice to know they want me around
