    Where is the grumble unhappy button? 😡

    And to top everything off, unfortunately the muffin only improves but does not disappear even at the other end of the belt

    I’m telling you - some of that is the shifting of body fat over time. kenrkoqwt5xb.gif

    Independent living facility mailing list humour... (yes, there is a "u" in there, that's intentional ;-) -- no I didn't join the list: my inclusion was UN-intentional! ;-))

    I think the IT geniuses have fixed the weird extra blank pages problem in the MFP postings. The correct latest page now loads.

    That does appear to be the case, thankfully. It was frustrating to have like 4 or 5 threads I participate in routinely be so balky!

    Uh Oh. I am going to have to check up on this. Hey. You survived the river! I even cleaned my gutters yesterday! :lol:

    Yup, I even walked to the polling station to vote on the 19th!
    The performance coach I am listening to says walks in the rain count double - not physically, but psychologically 😉

    I’ve been wondering about how Bella is doing. I hope she’s well and getting back to a less stressful life.

    And isn’t Laurie due to get back home to Hamilton today?

    I miss you both!

    I'm here! Buried under the lifetime's accumulated possessions of an 85 y/o compulsive spendaholic, but otherwise fine and dandy. Eating still not back on an even keel, and clothes are uncomfortably tight, but I haven't quite thrown in the towel...there's still a few embers of commitment and determination remaining...I just need to fan them into flame.

    Fanning the flame 🔥 for you Bella. You’ll get through this and back to where you’re happy.
    I sympathize- I was my mother’s executor and spent months dealing with finances and possessions. Go slow. It will get done in time.

    And stay in touch. We’re here for you!

    PAV8888 Posts: 14,671 Member
    Me too would like to see her.
    AND Bella!
    AND BC Lady--just 'cause
    AND I gather that our Yooly is back?

    Yup - back home with three extra pounds and sore feet. Great trip!

    On to the holidays and all that festivity. But I need to rest up first.

    Hope our other friends are out there lurking 👀. Come back, we need you and some wisdom here.

    Two pieces of chocolate covered nougat (total eat time 2 seconds?🤯) are as many calories as an almost 13oz bowl of soup! And it takes more than 2 seconds to eat that?🤔🤯 Now we all do know this. And yet we often don't follow through.

    We are up to three or four for the number of drivers who seem to believe I do not exist in a pedestrian crossing that has the walk sign on. One was particularly indignant today after she advanced though the red light to make a right turn that I actually tapped on her passenger window with my phone and pointed to the dwindling count on the walk sign. I believe I also gifted her with a raised finger when she apathetically shrugged. Though I didn't actually say anything. I wonder if she was related to the guy who may night made a left turn through where the dog would have liked to have been had I not pulled her back. He got both some yelling and a finger but was too far down the hill for the effective transmission of my love to him.

    Funny - we are always told that Canadians are super polite and well behaved.

    And a believer in reciprocity when it comes to in person interactions!

    Though I admit to being more likely to participate in "in the "moment" reciprocity" vs the masterful "cold blood and after the fact" take-downs I've observed highly socially adept females deliver to people who have stepped on their tails in the past!

    Me being a simple boy just want to kick the crap out of the *kitten* who targets me for flattening into the pavement!

    It’s amazing how much catching up a person needs to do after they are away for five months!
