Elevation: 77m
Moving Time: 44:16
Elapsed Time: 47:21
Speed: Avg: 15.2km/h | Max: 28.1km/h
Also stopped to fill up van. Evidently fuel prices are supposed to rise.
Good thing we don't drive much.
Also swung by Bunnings to get more gardening stuff for my husband. It's planting season!! He enjoys gardening, so I'm happy to get him what he needs for that.

Terri - The A level I did was Latin Translation with Roman History.
I too adore learning about ancient civilisations. Have you visited Egypt? We had a fantastic 3 week trip there. My favourites are the Latin American ones.
Welcome serevogel! Can we please have a name and location after each post. It helps us oldies!
My son arriving this afternoon.

I did it, signed up for the Better Bones and Balance class and said goodbye for now to T'ai Chi. Will miss the people but need to try something different. Wish me luck!
Welcome ab_shutterbug.
Dandi ((hugs))
Lanette thank you for sharing your DH story and your wisdom. It helps.
Only through pg 65, but time to sleep.
Lighter, lovelies!

Rori - just wanted to pop in before my day gets too hectic to say how glad I am that you are taking steps to widen your social circle. I remember when I used to travel to my mother's and look after her for a short while. I found myself transmogrifying into a semblance of her. I think if I had stayed around her longer I would have aged well before my time. It is so important to keep your own life going and not subsume it to anyone else.
Love you.
Love to all the carers and lovers and those who live alone. We all have our different struggles. Holding on to our sense of self is so important.

Heather - very well said... and something I need to start doing here. I need to become part of my environment here, as well, and start to do things like go to city council meetings. The hard part is the beginning.
Rori - sorry for the incipient heart attack.
I got a little precious with that, but once the hour goes by, can't edit our posts, or I probably would have. I'm pleased for you that your brother is going to stay in the area... but does the fact that he's made friends with a bartender mean that he's drinking again? I know that you were awfully worried about that situation earlier on, if it's the same brother.
As Heather said, my heart goes out to all of you who are caring for another, even if it's a matter of simply prodding them to go take care of themselves. For those like Rori and Machka, I stand in awe of your strength, and that's not an exaggeration. I'm not sure that I could find it within me to do what you do on a daily, weekly, monthly basis, and you simply continue. Much respect to you both, as well as everyone caring for a loved one.
More on the next steps for me in a separate post.

So...had a long conversation with my husband last night, as we actually went out for dinner - a fairly rare thing for us, maybe three or four times a year. Terrific dinner--I had the shrimp and grits, he had some Cajun mish-mosh thing, and I gave him all the Cajun sausage out of my dish. Still couldn't eat all mine, and he ended up eating a couple of my grilled shrimp and quite a bit of the grits. Something he's done all ten years we've been married is finish my restaurant dishes, and often enough my dinner at home.
Putting the upshot of the conversation in a spoiler, not to be precious again (I swear), just to make it easy to skip over for those who aren't interested. It's OK, you don't have to be. We're good.During that conversation we talked about the fact that applying for the job, and going to the interviews, as well as withdrawing the application, was part of the overall adjustment I'm making to a permanent life here. As those who know me are aware, I've moved all my adult life, first as a member of the Air Force, then married to an Air Force enlisted man, then after I left him, marrying a man with a taste for adventure and change. We bought this house as our permanent home in July 2018, I got the job I have now in December 2018, and I'm still trying to figure out how to be a person who lives in the same place for the rest of her life. And now, apparently someone who works for the same company for a significant period of time.
Bluntly, the longest job I've EVER had was the Air Force for four years, and they shoot you if you leave. OK, that's an exaggeration, but they will put you in jail if you leave without telling anyone. Since I left the Air Force at 23, when I chose, or when I moved, I've simply changed jobs. Considering I've moved from one house, city, state, or country to another more than 30 times as adult, there have been a lot of moves, and a lot of jobs. I've moved three times just since I got to know the ladies in this group the last four years! And in that time, have had four jobs-business proposal manager, managing editor, development manager, and now grant writer.
That's not bragging - that's explaining that, in a life that has known little but change, making a decision NOT to change jobs was kinda huge for me. I had to accept that some things aren't going to change about how decisions are made, and that I can either suck that up or move on. I chose to stay. Which has other ripples... but mainly that, in staying, I need to shut off the job board announcements that flood my inbox. I need to no longer be open to the next thing, and instead, just bloom where I've planted myself. Not a hardship, I might add. While the pay isn't super amazing, many non-profits like this one make it up in benefits:- Off on Fridays after 1:30 p.m.
- 20 days vacation a year, not accrued, you're simply entitled to them starting October 1 of each year.
- 8 to 10 paid days off during the weeks of Christmas and New Year each year--the entire office shuts down.
- Work at home 90 percent of the time - I go into the office once a month for all-staff and then whenever I have grants to print, or materials to print out for a grant meeting.
I don't know how things are going to work out with the new supervisor (I move over under her management on October 1) but I plan on killing her with kindness, largely. Bless her, she's micromanaged her current person unmercifully, but I'm hoping it's a matter of perception--and distance. She's literally an hour away, I won't see her often, and as long as I keep her informed on what I'm doing, I think she'll cool her jets with me. I hope she will, anyway. As someone at work that I love dearly told me, I'm secure enough to simply say, "no, you're wrong about that," when I know I'm in the right--as well as secure enough to say, "yes, you're right, thank you for the advice," when that's actually the situation.
Off to go turn off the electronic job boards. I can't even imagine not knowing what the job situation is like out there. And, if it's anything like romance, the minute I'm no longer open, they'll come a-calling.
Whew! OK, I'm done now. Thank you to those who read my navel-gazing, thumbs-up to those who didn't.
Later, y'all,

Hello everyone.
Ah, Saturday. The day those of us whom work M-F dream of throughout the work week. It was a very early morning for me. Up at 3:30 am and laid in bed until 4:00 am hoping to fall back asleep. Completed the morning routine - coffee, weigh in, make bed, etc..
Yesterday I decided I would walk to the grocery this morning (it's about a mile away). I made it in under 15 minutes. I was extremely happy with the time. The body has been adjusting even though I have been a sloth for the past year and a half or so. Many baby steps over the past four weeks (I started by walking in place during commercials).
The most amazing thing happened during my walk. A flock of Ibis' landed around me (approximately 30). There were many teenagers (brown feathers) in the group. I walked by slowly and spoke softly to them and was able to walk within 2 feet of them. The experience was the silver lining since it had started to rain on my way back home.
I hope everyone has a fabulous day/evening.

Morning, I’ve been skimming and unable to absorb information, I am still committed to supporting you all and adding to the comradery when I can though—and I know you all understand that!!
Work is incredibly challenging and I drove home and told DH I couldn’t make it the full four years of work that would give us the most stable pension — his response— we will deal with it, you come first— it’s your call. Yesterday was a very emotion packed day, colleague’s are turning to me for advice and support but it is draining. I will have to look a little deeper at my journals and habits to see what else I could add or delete to help with this level of stress. DH says first things first get back to exercise!!! So Off i go.
NYKAREN10 -
Did Michelle Dozois Shape Up DVD then because it was short I also did a DVD for the exercise ball. The plan for tomorrow is to do Kathy Smith’s Power Walk DVD
Serevo…welcome, come back often
Lisa – your spoiler was so insightful
Want to make these ginger pumpkin muffins for the gal who lets me go to the Y for free but I need instant butterscotch pudding. I thought I had it, but what I have is the cook & serve type so I need to exchange it at the store. I also need to pick up Loki’s med and get Vince milk so I’m just here waiting for the pharmacy to open
SuziQ – how neat you can walk to the grocery store. There’s a SMALL one near us. You’re in Broward County, huh? Our place is in Brevard
Hmmm…gotta think of other things to do. Maybe I’ll get the chicken ready to marinate so that’ll take some time.

Been offline still will be JR has his 1st Cold 🥶 or allergies ever. Runny stuffy nose,sneezing,coughing, vomiting,mucus, the works he looks miserable. I got whatever this crud is too. Thought it was my acid reflux messing with my throat but nope. Vick’s pad in his humidifier, Pooh Bear needs a wash cause of vomit but he won’t let him go, I’m covered in vomit but his baths more important he just wants rocked. Lol not the first time used to be covered in milk spit up with leaking boobs some moron at the door 🚪 not getting the hint we don’t want to buy nothing...I can survive this blindfolded.Vicks rub on his chest. Pulling out all the Mom ideas on it to get him over it quickly...wish he loved chamomile tea like his sister but nope he hates pedialyte to Gatorade this boy doesn’t give me much choices. Will figure it out not my 1st rodeo

The weekend is here, ladies!
Heather - were you able to contact your cleaning lady? Sounds like you'll be catching up with your elder son. Then... you'll be off on your cruise! Hoping for great weather for the trip.
Tracey - hope the antibiotic and pain does the trick on your tooth until you can see the dentist. For me, warm compresses seem to help pressed over the jaw or cheek of the offending tooth. Dental isn't included in your national health insurance? 3 month wait for it?
Rebecca - when I get a chance to get onto Facebook I'll check for that cartoon you mentioned. I can't get things to open in FB on this PC anymore and the GUI on the tablet is different and clumsy. But between the two, I make out, lol. Good job on selling the extra stuff. You are very good at it and getting some nifty cash besides decluttering.
Rori - read your post just before I went to bed last night. Happy for your brother with the job and with you getting back in the exercising mode. When your foot complains, tell it to shush and it will thank you later for making it stronger as time goes on. Thank you for the prayers!
I am curious - anyone else in your DH's family have dementia?
Looking at my own family history, both Mom and her dad were in their 80's before they passed from their dementia and both broke hips which clinched the deal. On my dad's side, everyone fairly active, sharp as tacks until a stroke or heart attack got them in their 90's. I wonder which fork in the road I'm destined to take genetics wise. I think for anyone, being active and eating right helps stack the deck against that type of old age mental decline. Crossing fingers.
Hoping the brain docu-series will get me back on the wagon in the nutrition department. My short-term memory went south a little for a couple weeks after the surgery, of course not sleeping well because of the itchy rash contributed I'm sure. Doing better and at night, I am making myself mentally review activities I did during the day.
Yesterday, I checked my Fitbit steps for the week and averaged up toward my 6000 step/day goal. I can tell, my foot is complaining. This past week I also bought a pair of Keen walking shoes a half size larger than I was wearing to handle my orthotics. Will be taking them back to trade for waterproof ones with cushy soles if they have any left. My old leather Keens will have to be garden shoes.
My lunch friend had a hip replacement almost a year ago, and while she has a new hip joint, still has pain. This past month she went through MRI's and other testing to see if something was going wrong with the appliance. Nothing was found. Thankfully the ortho clinic has a new doctor that spent a lot of time with her going over the tests, and she has decided she'll live with it. Like in "Women Rowing North", she'll find ways to accommodate.
And so will I. The upside of getting the walking in is that my blood pressure is back down where it needs to be.
Also, when DH was mowing yesterday, I dragged out the vacuum and swept the living room. GACK I think something is wrong with it, hard to get the carpet height and beater thingie adjusted so it's like dragging/pushing an anchor. My poor little housecleaner. Santa needs to bring us a new one! Vacuum, not house cleaner, lol.
Next week some sunshine is predicted so will haul out the little carpet steamer. My plan is to get everything ready then DH will say "let ME do that".
OK, enough chit chat about me. You all have things to do.
Make it a super day!

Got back from seeing “Hair”. It was good, so much talent! I must be getting old….I remember when I went to see “Menopause the Musical” in Philly. At the end the audience could go on stage and dance. I did, even tho I left Vince in the audience. Now here they did that and I really didn’t want to get on stage. It’s Hickory, not Philly. Wonder why I felt that way? At the end the one guy came out draped in the American flag. At one point it was touching the ground. I thought for sure the Vietnam Vets in the audience would take offense at that, but no one said anything.
Michele in NC
Michele - did anyone run naked through the audience at the production of "Hair"? I think they did that in the original Broadway version?
Time flies... 50th anniversary of Woodstock. I think I played the album until it wore out.

Thank you Heather and Lisa.
I never thought I could find it within me to do what I'm doing either. It's just not "me". But here I am. Some days are frustrating, aspects of some days are maddening, challenging, difficult ...
But fortunately we have good moments, good hours, good days.
Today was a good day.
A restful morning ... going out for a bicycle ride which wrapped up just before the wind set in ... a little shopping trip so my husband could work in the garden this coming week ... getting rolling on my taxes ... dinner at Zambreros ... and then the symphony!
But I never know what the next day is going to be like, so I take them as they come.

DH is sorting out the garage for the freezer's arrival on Monday. We need a path through the junk and a space. He's just come in and said it's done. Very dusty and hard work. I told him firmly that if if was anything heavy he was to wait for my son. I don't want any pulled muscles/slipped discs before the cruise!
Off to pick up my son in about an hour. I will walk to the station and get a taxi back if he has luggage.
Lanette - the actual cleaning woman hasn't got back to me yet. I will try again to contact the organiser who is giving it up before we go away, as we have visitors the weekend after we get back. I need the cleaner's phone number. Luckily, my son does not have high standards.
We are booked in to the ice cream cafe tonight. They do great fresh pasta and seafood. It's about twenty minutes walk by the sea on a beautiful evening.
Article in the paper today about how Genoa has a great many centenarians. I was delighted to see their diet looks very similar to mine!

Yvonne in TX: Making custom Roman Shades takes skill. Good for you! I hope hanging the shades goes well. :bigsmile:
Terri: If you had chicken pox as a kid the shingles vaccinations are valuable. DH and I both had chicken pox. I’ve had my vaccinations and he is being an idiot. :grumble:
Lanette: The visit to our niece’s house was great once we got there. (We were stuck in traffic on I-5 for a very long time due to a fatality accident.
) The house is lovely and has a fabulous back yard. I think she’s made a very good decision. 
(((Rita)))
Rori: Good news about your brother’s job and your socializing with neighbors. :bigsmile:
Barbara: I hope you enjoy better bones and balance class. Please tell us a bit about it as you go along.
Heather: “Love to all the carers and lovers and those who live alone. We all have our different struggles. Holding on to our sense of self is so important.” You are absolutely right!
Lisa: Blooming where you are planted is a glorious gift. Congratulations on a great decision!
NYKaren: Your DH is a wise man, and telling you that you come first is awesome. :flowerforyou:
I had a lovely walk with one of my neighbors yesterday. She has been very frail for months and yesterday she was back to her old self. I enjoyed the walk and her company.

Karen - so glad you and your DH could have a frank talk about the stress of your job and retirement.
"Having" to go to work vs. "choosing" to go to work eased some pressure for me. Helped me make it through the last couple years & decide to bloom where I was planted. Used up a lot of accrued vacation which helped, lol. When my time was up I rushed out of there so fast the door didn't have a chance to hit me.
Another thought - any chance of leaving this full time job and taking something part time with the school to get your service credits in? Maybe your retirement is based on the final few years of work though instead of the three or four highest earning years (like my plan was in WA State).
Great idea looking back in your journals and see what worked. I've been doing that a lot myself lately.

Hello ladies!
It's been quiet lately. My 92 year old uncle has major surgery on Monday, so we are all resting up for whatever happens. Meanwhile, Mom and Dad are napping. I wish this house was set up for exercise DVDs, but nope. That and restricted kitchen privileges are part of the drawback of living here. I gained a pound this week. I need to build more resistance to other people's food. My mom keeps buying non-dairy ice cream because she knows I can't resist. There are worse things, I know. But I am discouraged about my diet. Plus I thought my hip would be better by now. I'm still doing leg lifts, when I need to be walking miles. I guess it's working slowly, I lost about seven pounds since July. September is pretty much a plateau. So that's my whiny mindset that I need to shake.

Guess what came in the mail the other day? My Medicare Card. Yuk So I went online today and started to fill in my profile with ViaBenefits (Mars’ consulting firm)
Had to go to WalMart to get Vince milk and Loki his med. They don’t carry instant butterscotch pudding, only cook & serve. I needed instant for the pumpkin ginger cupcakes so went to Food Lion, the only kind they had that was instant was the no-sugar variety. I usually don’t like the low/no sugar stuff but I really didn’t have a choice. Made the ginger pumpkin cupcakes for the gal at the Y, got the marinade for the chicken ready so it’ll be ready to grill, now making Vince a chocolate cake for him to have later in the week. I’ll make some icing (maybe tomorrow) for the cake and cupcakes
Amber – hope JR gets better soon
Lanette – let’s hope you’re like your father’s family. My father was sharp as a tack right up until his death. That’s harder on the person. The mind wants to do something but the body just won’t let them. It’s frustrating for the person. I thought you meant that Santa needed to bring you a new house!!! Nobody ran naked thru the audience in “Hair” but they were naked on stage.
I honestly don’t know if I had chicken pox or not. If I did, I must have been VERY young because I don’t remember it. Now all the kids had chicken pox, they gave it to dh, but I never got them. So I must have had them and built an immunity.
Remember that cranky lady at the soup kitchen that I told you about – the one that I kill with kindness? Well, Friday she asked if I would help her hand out the bags they get for the weekend, so I said “sure”. I hand them to some people and see others already have one so I didn’t give them another. Then she says to me “I already gave them one”. I thought “then why did you ask me to help you? I do have two eyes and I can see if someone already has one and won’t give them another” so I just said “oh”. Then this one boy who was on the dessert station (that person portions out the desserts and wraps the utensils in a napkin) mentioned how there weren’t any more spoons. She said to him “here are some” and proceeded to throw them at him. Poor kid was so flustered. You don’t need to throw them at someone! Oh well….
Guess I’ll go out by the pool now and then probably string a bit more popcorn then get ready for church tonight. Got dinner ready so all I have to do is pop it in the microwave when I get back.

I agree with you & hope you & I are both right. :flowerforyou:
RE: familial dementia: My paternal grandmother died with severe dementia. My mom thought grandma’s dementia was caused by her use of sleeping pills. I suspect that is likely true. Those pills are no longer on the market. Mom also had dementia when she died, but I’m very sure hers was due to lack of oxygen. She wasn’t a pill taker, but she was a chain smoker from her teenaged years onward and her lungs were no longer able to exchange oxygen. I am trying to live as healthy a life as I can. I don’t want to follow in either of their footsteps. :noway:

Last night I used 4 of my ice cube chicken stock, a container of wild rice you microwave, 3 ozs of a precooked chicken, some frozen peas, 5 udon noodles broken up,and a splash of my Amy's shiitake mushroom dressing. Also water. Oh and a couple drops of sesame oil. It was glorious.👍

Shopping- I spent about $80 because we bought some cold medicine for husband, also some other ointments that cost about $12 combined. I planned for french dips last night, so the roast beef from the deli was $11. I decided on using up my frozen fish fillets by steaming them with spices, and either adding them on my udon soups, or wild rice, or pasta I bought. I love the pasta that's called campanelli's. They are a combination of a swirl, a shell, and have an ability to hold onto sauces really well. A box of that is less than $2. I bought some cottage cheese too. It had been awhile since I have had that. Sometimes you just have to take a break from a certain thing, for it to taste good again. Cottage cheese is one of those things. I have a bag of spinach, to add with it. I like to saute the chicken with some honey and soy sauce, add walnuts and put with fresh spinach.
My son has to fly with his guys down to San Diego this Sunday, to put a helicopter together. He'll be gone until the 10th so I am using this time to clean out freezer. I have 1 poor hamburger patty, plus a couple of sausage patties that I will make into meals. I pretty much leave husband to figure out lunches for himself. I tell him at the commissary, "you have 4 lunches to plan, and you have $10 to do it". He adds up as he grabs, then tells me before I add everything up. I have him trained huh!
So just now I got a tickle in my throat with a full gulp of coffee in there! I sputtered all over my shirt! Well on the good side my shirt and chest area captured all the mess. *long sigh*
So pen pal dilemma. I have a sweet gal that writes me but I can't, for the life of me, read her handwriting! I have decided to keep writing her, just general stuff, and not embarrass her. It isn't like she would want to completely change her handwriting just to please me. So I have 4 friends to write to today. I also need to make chicken fried rice for son that's leaving. He requested it so.....💖

I’ve been MIA but I wanted to share what we did today - This year has been challenging, health wise, so we’ve not been able to ride like we used to. Well, today shattered that - we rode 34.55 miles. I’m sore, but it’s a good sore. And I see pizza in my future tonight!8

Hi all,
Son gone to bed.
We had a good afternoon/evening. As we strolled to the restaurant while it was light there were loads of people on the beach. Great food at Marroccos. Strolling back it was soooooo balmy. People still everywhere making the most of the last days of summer. Bonfires on the beach. An unexpected bonus of an evening. My son said it was like the South of France.
The lunch tomorrow is at 1 PM. .Time to exercise, beautify, and make our way over. We might drive as it is supposed to rain. I would prefer to walk if we can dodge the showers. I do have a big bag of presents for Edie to carry.
Managed to fit in 1 hr 40 mins bonus walking today.
Hope to sleep tonight. My son is in my room, so if I can't sleep I will have to slip under the spare unmade bedding in the front room. Last night it was a tickly cough that drove me out.
Much love, Heather UK xxxxxxxx

Finished everything but the door trim this weekend for the mudroom
From inside the kitchen - before we cut through:
Outside the kitchen door, looking at the old storeroom door:
Inside that storeroom, after my husband framed in floor joists to bring it up to the same level as the kitchen:
Looking at that same kitchen wall - the only thing we haven't done is framed the entry - there won't be a door on it, just a frame around it:
Looking in the door to the left - my husband's shoes and boots on the big shelf:
Looking in that doorway to the right - all my shoes, and I will be going to buy a shelf tomorrow morning, after some recovery time.
So, what we got was tons of pantry space, room for all the boots and shoes, as well as the cedar chest, where you can sit down and put on boots/shoes, room for the chest freezer, all the coats this winter (up to the right of the freezer) and above the door as you exit the mudroom, hangers for all my husband's hats. The space was 5' x 10', when all was said and done.
One day to shop for everything that was needed, and two days to build - one last weekend, one this weekend. Whew!
Later, my lovelies,
Lisa in AR13
