    Karen VA- Exactly my point! JRs 100% percentile they joke if it went higher he’d be more than that. One Doctor calls him “the giant”. To her defense she is way under 5ft tall on her country of birth that’s normal. There’s no way we can keep him in a car seat until 8! DMV told us to go by height luckily but still the heights ridiculous too lol the Doctor almost still needs a booster seat with these guidelines lol good thing she’s older than 8 now!

    Car seat company emailed the Manuel told us the exact numbers to go by but still he’s on the line! Going to have to measure a bunch will see Got the next size up in the garage.Hubby thinks he saw one in store or online that would give us another 4inches if growing room! Same weight tho he thinks it was affordable. Going to look for it tomorrow. Lol now if I do got to remember to not grab the wrong Manuel when checking not easy I store everything in the same drawer. Going to have to watch his spurts measure a lot y weight him regularly.
    Halloween outfit found the tag 🏷 lost on the floor size 6 so unless the next 2 months is another growth should fit fingers crossed everyone knock on wood!!! We have the same head size lol I just got fat cheeks still (need to loose them pounds) so JR had me wear it he laughed y laughed. It the hat I’m worried about not sure if his heads done growing before Halloween 🎃. If it does no hat. More stuff to check on tomorrow weight limit for toy fire truck next.

    Luci WNC: Good luck for the op. When my dad had his done, DH said he was like a big kid on the journey home after he got the bandages off. He couldn't believe how bright and colourful everything was again.
    Amber: I thought we had problems with our grandson, who has always been big for his age. We always had to buy him clothes for 3 years older than he was. He's over 6' tall at 16, and still growing.
    Tracey: I love earrings. But could never quite bring myself to have my ears pierced. I made a lot of my own earrings when I was younger. Seldom wear them these days because of hearing aids.
    Rebecca: Ouch! (((Hugs)))


    Peace 🕊 and Love 💕💖💕

    @Machka9 it seems unfair that people on long term worker's comp can't travel to see family. are exceptions made on request?

    @JRsLateInLifeMom lots of extra work in childproofing; what a crazy desert! that must be at least a day's worth of calories for me.

    @cityjaneLondon Heather, meeting up with old friends can be such a mixed bag, can be great, and refreshing, but also we sometimes evolve so differently. also increased awareness can change one's perception of the dynamic (past or present). Or one can be really focussed on the "good old days" and the other can be more in the present.

    I lost part of my post! sorry about that!

    Feeling a bit off-kilter this morning. I don't know why. Slept well, was a little groggy getting up. I tend to be more of a morning person, but am also happy when I get a decent and easy night's sleep.

    I was a bit stressed so ate some fruit yesterday evening : 2 bananas and 200g of grapes. (plus a glass of wine)

    I was quite low carb during the day but went up ont he carbs in the evening.

    I think sometimes when I have a lot of carbs late in the day I feel groggy the next day.

    Does anyone get that?

    On the phone the doctor says I definitely have to do a reeducation (physical therapy) for the meniscus tear. (no operation as was the irm doctor said).

    I feel a bit frozen (emotionally) in some areas.

    Heather brave woman! Good for you launching into the new Word program.

    He's supposed to be available for work or interviews or medical appointments ordered by the insurers or anything else the insurers want him to do 24/7. That's one of the rules. No weekends. No stat holidays. No leave.

    However ... his main doctor has ordered that he can only work a very limited period of time each week because of his injury. So we do have a little bit of freedom. We can go somewhere within driving distance on the weekend when there aren't likely to be any medical appointments or other things.

    People are rarely on long term worker's comp ... most lop off a finger, twist an ankle, break a wrist or do their backs and they're back in business in a few weeks. So they make the law with those people in mind ... to make going back to work the better option. :|

    So at this point ... no exceptions.

    Heather: Bravo! The same thing happens when I get a new computer or get one serviced. It’s all the clandestine rubbish (cookies and suchlike) which ends up on our computers which slows them down.

    Allie ~ Take deep breaths. Your reunions will probably go great because you are good at planning and participating.

    Heather ~ Congrats on downloading Office.

    Machka ~ Love the photos of the scenery you get to enjoy.

    Karen NY ~ Wishing a successful new school year for you.

    Karen VA ~ Your grandson is so lucky to have you as his champion.

    Someone is using the WOO button...many think it is not a happy button to use.

    Yeah, it's not a good thing.

    It is supposed to be replaced with Disagree soon.

    I'm venturing into VBA programming for my assignment. I had to think when the last time I used VBA was ... 2013. Time flies!! And never with Power Point.

    But I'm slogging along, some of it is coming back, and it's probably a good review.

    It's either this or put it into Wordpress ... also a tempting option, and I may do that for the final product.

    On the work front, I'm pleased to report my SQL programming is gradually getting slightly better. :)

    I learn programming languages like I learn other languages ... I can usually read and understand them well before I can actually use them.


    Not sure why, but I feel like I could sit down and eat a massive meal right now. But no.

    Terri- Were 4sizes ahead at the moment. Lol If yours is 6” at 16 what’s JR going to be ? Lol my nefew is 6” only 9yrs old. This runs in the family men’s side only the Women very short I’m Luckily 5”4 I’m one of the tallest ones. Men well range from 6ft-8ft tall. Women 4ft-5”6. We have dwarfism y gigantism in our family tree. It’s only on 2 relative sides we married into the Hogan clan their shorter men it’s balanced us out some so Sometimes a guy gets to be shorter but rarely. (Yes Ben Hogan a distant Cousin met him at family reunion when I was young I bragged about putt putt golf how great I was lol I was too young to understand what a pro golfer was “embarrassing moments of our youth” luckily he just ate a peach 🍑 laughed said wow your better than me! Gonna give me some pointers? Then let me show him with a stick lol 😂) He was short all the Hogan men are. Normal like JR to have a protruding forehead .

    This is Gigantism (Doctor y us think JR has it genetic we watch calories y stay active allowing over eating hurts them! Same with Dwarfism too inactive with too many calories can cause surgeries that would not have been necessary).

    Health and workout post :) I go to the gym 5 days a week, with a trainer M/W/F and just cardio on T/TH. Then on Saturday, we go for a long bike ride. Tucson has a Loop that circumnavigates the city and we would really like to ride the full thing, which would be approximately 58 miles, including the 2 miles from our house. So far, the farthest we have ridden is 38 miles, and that was last year. This year has been one full of medical issues for me, starting with a kidney infection in January, followed by vein ablations, foot surgery and a diagnosis of arthritis in my neck and shoulders. But the workouts are so good, the arthritis pain is very manageable now, my foot is finally recovering, I need a third ablation and am waiting on insurance approval, but I'm back to my normal routines.

    My hardest part is creating meals for us that fit in my macros and calories. My husband will be meeting with the nutritionist next month so we have a better idea of what he needs as well. Sometimes, I feel like a short-order cook! And do you know how difficult it is to make interesting, yummy meals that fit macros and calories?? I look at recipes and get frustrated that there is no nutritional information. I know I can enter them into MFP, and often do, but I'd really like it if I could just glance at a recipe and know if it is worth it or not! Ah well.

    Oh, and I am having a bit of a non-scale victory - my undies are getting loose, even if my weight isn't moving much :) Might be time soon to go shopping for new ones!

    And to the lady who's a fan of that college that shall not be named - Lori I think it is? That's ok :) I live in the heart of Wildcat country now (Tucson, AZ) and trust me the rivalry between University of Arizona and Arizona State is INTENSE! Funny aside - my niece and her husband lived in Columbus until very recently. Her husband played football for all four years of college for, get this - Pitt! He hung a flag out every football season. Talk about being a fish out of the water!
