    Kiwibowler – are you from Australia? What’s the significance behind your name?

    Michele NC

    If Kiwi refers to a country, it would be New Zealand, not Australia. :)

    That's what I was thinking when I read that. :smiley:

    :) My newest favorite book is "Stillness is the Key" by Ryan Holiday. :)

    Barbie I just read through the "Look Inside" version on Amazon - that looks like a terrific book.

    Kylia I wonder if your mother-in-law would be amenable to a single injection of 1 gram of ceftriaxone (Rocephin)? That's a pretty decent treatment for UTI in a person who can't or won't take pills. Of course her doctor would have to agree to the plan & your mother-in-law would need not to be allergic to it.

    Rebecca – where did you enter your weight on MFP so that they could generate that chart? I’ve never done that but think it would be interesting to do for a bit

    Rori – how scary that must have been! Thank goodness the neighbors took Mars in

    Got my oil changed. They said something about how I will soon need new tires (there aren’t many miles on the tires as it is). Well, you know they are ALWAYS trying to sell you something, especially if it’s a woman who is going in for the oil change

    Jess called. The college is going to go to online classes for the next three weeks. So she won’t be coming home

    Have to call the neurologist tomorrow. Previously, they gave me the extended release. Well, with insurance thru Mars it was $50. Now on Medicare it is over $500. So I need to call the neurologist’s office to see what can be done. Even if I have to take the non-extended release tablets twice a day. We shall see.

    Went to ceramics tonight. Vince had a GOP meeting and didn't get out in time. By the time he got home and had dinner, he felt it would be too late so he didn't go

    M – oops! Me bad (Australia vs. New Zealand)

    Kylia – a single injection is a wonderful idea!

    Machka -- I went to a new hair stylist recently who recommended not washing hair every day. I needed to train my hair. So, I've been doing that the last few weeks and I have to say, it works. I even haven't been washing it after hot runs. I just dry it and spray dry shampoo in it. The most I have gone was 3 days. I did use a lot of dry shampoo. I have heard this many times before. It's because every time you wash your hair, you strip the oils and it becomes weaker and breaks. Mine does look better already.

    All I need is for someone behind me on the bus to sneeze and I've got "droplets" in my hair. Run my hand through my hair ... and voila! COVID-19.

    Hence the reason why I'm planning to have some of it cut off in a few minutes and to wash it more frequently.


    And in other news, more information has emerged about the 3rd person in Tas and she attended my campus on Monday. So it begins.

    Kiwibowler: In weight loss, slow and steady wins the race. In the story of the tortoise and the hare, we all know who wins the race. Stick with us and we’ll all eventually win. :bigsmile:

    Kylia: I have to admit I was having a personal stress festival. Thanks for the input on my repeated posts. :flowerforyou:

    Amber: Chucky Cheese seems to be taking proactive measures to keep their customers safe. I think that is admirable. :star:


    I am an avid reader and use Library to Go to get most of my books. I turned in the last one when I finished it and can’t find anything to check out at the moment so I’m rereading books from my own shelves. These books are favorites that I have read before, but not recently.

    March 2020 Resolutions Progress report:

    2. Cardio exercise at least 3 days a week: Work on strength and stamina. I've been able to meet my exercise goals.

    5. Monitor sleep. Average 7 or more hours nightly: Done. Luckily I am sleeping well.
    6. Abstain from alcohol. Done.

    I just shared single injection idea with her grand daughter. So that way she can mention to Dr if MIL doesn't follow through with pills. She told my husband that she took it this morning and is due again at 930.

    Michelle- if you go to progress where you add weight log in, it will show you the chart for week, month, year, or all. I know some features don't work on my tablet, some don't work on my phone. I have to log food on laptop or phone. I can read main page and community from tablet.

    Today has been a stressful day, heading to bed with a sink full of dishes, clothes in the dryer, and bills to be paid. You know what? They will all be there tomorrow!

    Sleep well ladies
