Glad you're back, Paula. What were you doing in Utah?
143.8 this morning at 5:00. Must keep this up...whatever it is!
Meeting w/our trainer this afternoon. Not sure what happens after that. Walking, maybe, or new protection screen for my phone. My phone flew out of the phone holder on my fanny pack and hit the street face-down! I wish I could blame it on someone besides me but I can't...totally my fault.
Chris0 -
Paula and Shelley...Are either of you rejoining the other challenge? I'm thinking "NO!" ...
Chris0 -
Paula, hope you had fun.
143.2 this morning...maybe.
Picking up the boys in a few mins.
Have a phone appt w/my doctor this afternoon. My lower back is killing me. Hoping she will order an x-ray or something...I know part of that is picking up Ronan but that is part of what I do and the rest of me must cooperate...
Gotta go now
TTYL

Chris, doyou/canyou bend with ur knees instead of ur back? Or r knees not an option? Hope you feel better.
Holding at 169# - happy for now since its a 5# drop from last month.
paula1 -
Thanks, Paula. Yeah, I try to bend my knees as much as possible. Getting out of bed in the morning is the worse, tho. Doc has ordered x-rays and a blood test to check for inflammation. She'll go from there. We'll see.
Day off from walking today. We'll go up to Kaiser...do that stuff then go get a new screen protector for my phone.
Then maybe I'll go to the store...or save that for tomorrow. Must make more goulash!!
Chris0 -
OH!! I got into MFP using Firefox just now...well, twice, really! No more Chrome for me...hopefully.
144.0 this morning at 5:00. **sigh**
Got Kaiser done. The guy at the phone store helped me order my screen protector using my phone. They will put it on for me when it gets here.
We might walk later this afternoon. Maybe.

179.4 this morning. Not happy with myself.
ready for Destin. I have several of the ladies ready to walk on the beach twice a day. I need a restart to and what better place than the beach. I have no excuses just know that my appetite has returned with a vengeance and I’ve got to take control. I refuse to go over 180. My goal was to get out of the 170s. Going to work hard in May. Also I joined a second tennis team. For the summer I’m on a Sunday team and a Thursday team. This should help. I’ve just got to refocus.
Ready to kill it in May. Which is also my birthday month!
Kathy1 -
Good decisions, Kathy. May will be a good month!
144.8 this morning at 5:30 and I don't know why.
Pain in my backside is awful. Hope doc finds something a pill will fix.
Yoga cancelled today. Trainer has tonsil troubles that DDD doesn't want Ronan around. Walking w/DH in a few mins. That seems to help my back. Then shopping for goulash ingred. Maybe more spicy this time. It was bland the last two times. Also...simmered it too long last time.
Chris0 -
Chris how is your core? Strong codes help back pain.
Anyways I was reading the posts between you and Paula last night. Nice job on vacation Paula.
And Chris that Ronan is sure adorable. 
Kathy I know how hard it is to put weight on after losing it during an illness.
But adding some more tennis matches is defiantly a great strategy. 
All the fish are loving their new home. I ordered a new food for them. You mix up a little bit of it and stick it to the glass. That way they can pick at it for a more natural eating style. It is spendy, but the shipping is not bad. So less in the long run than when I order frozen foods.
Shelley0 -
Working on my core. We had solved this problem before, but then this beautiful grandbaby appears and boom. This just seems so different. I've never hurt like this before. We'll see what the doc has to say.
Made a new batch of goulash today. Much better than the last two batches. I might just have it just right, now!!
May 5th is Free Comic Book Day. There are only certain Comic Book Stores giving out free comic books. The closest one isn't close and it's on a Saturday. I wanted to get DDD's kids each a comic book to take home on Friday to be read on Saturday. DDD will have to go w/me to the book store because I have no idea what to get. One day this week we'll get together and take Ronan with us to the book store. We will have a blast!

144.4 this morning at 6:00. harrumph!
Walked w/DH this morning then got ready for hair cuts w/DDD.
We're going to get together and get books for the kids before school ends. There really aren't comics for 1st graders.
Chris0 -
To bad. I loved comic books when I was a kid.
After my workouts did some aquarium maintenance. And read. Sent a picture of my Angel fish to a friend. Who said she was underweight.
Started to look into a possible cause. Noticed that the molly has stringy white poop. Internal parasites. Can't get a break! Good news is they can be treated in their new home. And I have everything on hand already. Have to mix it into their food.
Shell0 -
Shelley, I know, I was so excited about the comic book thing. I hope your Molly gets better. Stringy poop is the worst.
144.8 this morning at 5:00. I had pistachios yesterday. Mixed salted w/no salt ones. Measured and everything, but I guess it was still too much salt. SAD!!! Workout w/our trainer switched to tomorrow. She has tonsillitis and I still have mine. I won't go near anyone who has it. Takes me out of the game for a long time. She gets hers out this Friday. Not going to be fun for he. DDD and I will do something silly for her. She loves Halo ice cream...maybe we'll take her every flavor.
Going to get the boys in a few mins. Have a great day, my friends.
Chris0 -
Tonsillitis is awful. I had mine out when I was 5. Ice cream even hurt. 144.8 is not bad for the end of April. May will be even better.
Shelley0 -
143.2 this morning at 5:00...maybe.
I had constant tonsillitis as a kid. They wouldn't take them out if I was infected. The last time I had it...a very long time ago...they quarantined me I was so bad. I had to spit out my spit because I couldn't swallow it. Lost a lot of weight back then!! Our trainer has been on her meds for over 24 hours. I think I'll be safe this afternoon...just no hugging allowed!!!
DDD's class is so bad this year that her subs for Tuesday when she is Teacher in Charge in the office, won't come back. **sigh** This year can't end too soon for her.
Ronan and DH are playing in the back yard. Watering the flowers and playing on and in the old truck. So darn cute!
Chris0 -
I am having difficulty visualizing a class of little kids that out of control. Just awful for everyone. I sure hope they have realized they cannot put all the problem children in the same classroom again. They just feed off of each other!
Ronan and grandpa together conjures up so many nicer thoughts.
Shelley0 -
DDD is hoping to teach 3rd or 4th next year. I'm sure they will let her. They don't want her to transfer to another school in the district. She has 11 days until they go to Disneyland for a week. Ronan's first trip. We will have Bean for the week and miss Ronan a ton and a ton!!! Then DDD is back for eight days until summer break.
143.6 this morning at 5:00. Yeah!
Okay...gotta go get the boys.

Ronan is going to have eyes as big as saucers! So exciting.
Shelley0 -
Chris, how exciting for you and R and DDD!
