    SusieQ - I got to be ahead my Birthday was exactly Dinner time 5pm Thanksgiving Day At birth lol 😂. Last thing I want on my birthday is to be hanging up Christmas decorations. Halloween this hopefully will be JRs 1st time going to 2-5houses then home. December is my Dads Birthday y Christmas y Daughters coming home from the Navy so no time then to decorate. So now all is done ✅ but the tree 🌲. That will be last minute to do in a day before Daughter gets off the plane ✈️! Buy food of course for it probably a local BBQ joint hubby said I got enough with a baby 👶 at our age so doesn’t want me fighting a 2yr old walking off with ingredients the whole time me having a peri- fit lol.

    Katla - Poor you <3 Sinus infections are the worst. Two years running we have caught the most dreadful coughs from the family. I was minutes from going to hospital. I really hope I don't succumb this year. Of course there's Norovirus, etc etc.. :bigsmile: Get well soon. I want to see those photos! :D<3

    Love Heather UK xxxxxxxx

    Welcome Risha55 and Jean060!
    Lanette will be interested in your tablet/keyboard research. I'm dreading the end of Windows 7, but must start thinking about laptop and OS replacement. Fie on you Bill Gates, FIE!
    Kim you can't help but be sad to hear your Mom's reaction. Good that you recognize it is her choice. Sad with you. “...also hope I can accept help with grace and listen with kindness. “ amen, sister, amen!
    Michele, did your spoon rest look like this one? https://www.amazon.com/Boston-Warehouse-Earthenware-Spoon-Rest/dp/B00RNT1O38

    Hope to catch a few winks before BB&B and burn barrel fun.
    Lighter, lovelies!

    Machka in Oz - Looking at that picture of the ferry makes me nearly seasick.

    Me too ... I've been on that ship when it's been somewhat wavy (but not that wavy) and was seasick.

    We had chosen the upright seats rather than a room for the 12-hour overnight trip, and I took a gravol hoping to settle my stomach and fall asleep but it didn't work very well and sitting in the seat wasn't comfortable ... I needed to be closer to the toilet.

    So I stood at the back of the chair area for a long time.

    But that worked out all right. People thought I was a "stewardess" so they wanted me to show them to their seats and help them recline and help them with their seatbelts and so on ... so I did!! Walking around helping people for a few hours gave me something other than seasickness to focus on and I didn't feel so bad. It also tired me out so I was finally able to sleep for a few hours.

    On the trips after that, we took a room.

    I turned around and my spoon rest was broken. I really liked it. It's of a cat made by Boston Warehouse. Only I don't see it on their website. I do hope they still make it. I've written to the company to see if they make it and I just don't see it.

    Pilates
    Some walking
    A few flights of stairs

    And I ran 1.3 km!! First time I've done that distance since the half marathon last January!! :smiley:

    Plus the usual ... work, cycling club stuff, and now studying for my final exam. I'm not really in the mood to study, but it has to be done.

    Happy Monday ladies!

    Barbie     - I also want to thank you for your statement. Always appreciate your wise words - more than once I've been able to "reframe" a situation thanks to your insight. <3

    Cathy in Arlington TX - happy birthday to your mom! If the teleporter would have been available, I can tell you a big piece of that cake would have been missing. WOW! Some day if you are totally bored and wish to post your before and after pix thanks to your keto eating, I'm sure the new gals would enjoy seeing them.

    Katla - welcome back home and so sorry for your sinus infection. I bet the changing air pressure on the plane helped drive it into your ears and sinuses. Always did that to me anyways, and probably one of the reasons I dread having to fly anywhere. Hope you can figure out the photos at some point and post them for us to enjoy. Glad to hear daughter and family are settling in. B)

    As I was watching the series on Alzheimers, I jotted down the series speakers. Many of them have written books, so went online and have them on order at the library. Here's the list:

    **The Alzheimer's Antidote by Amy Berger. I picked that one up already and she focuses on a lot of the strategies presented in the series. Also good explanation of the chemistry behind the brain and low-carb/ketosis and why it's good for overall health, not just preventing or slowing dementia.

    **Genius Foods by Max Lugavere. It's about foods good for brain health.

    **Brain Body Diet by Sara Gottfried. 40 days to a lean, calm, energized and happy self.

    Kelly - just ordered "Being Mortal" from the library. Thank you for mentioning!

    OK ladies, I have a hungry dog giving me the "look"

    Make it a great day! <3

    :)Katla, If you have photos saved to your computer, one of us can explain how easy it is to post them. If you don't have them saved on your computer, the job is more complicated.

    <3Rori, I am so sorry to hear that your brother is drinking again. You are so right that you can't say or do anything that will help. Has he connected with the A.A. meetings in your community?

    Exermom-try Ebay for the spoon rest. If that doesn't work google the item, not the company.

    I have finally read the past 4 pages of this post. Lazy Monday. Had to get a needle and thread together for my granddaughter as she is taking sewing classes at school(3rd grade). Her birthday is next month so I ordered her a sewing kit which has everything in it. I go for a walk every morning if weather permits. Right now listening to Christmas music. I signed a lot of cards over the weekend so they are ready to go, but still more to go. Now to figure out supper.

    Maritill ~ Hi! I have a granddaughter in 3rd grade also. She loves to draw and paint. For her birthday this year she was allowed to get her ears pierced. What shall we call you (or did I miss that) and where are you located?
