    Allie: Happy Birthday!!!!!!! :heart: :flowerforyou: :heart:

    Lisa: I saw that message, too. I don’t open any messages from people outside of this group. I delete them. I suppose I could file a complaint with MFP but deleting or blocking suits me better. My mom always said I take too much Vitamin LZ. :embarassed:

    Pip: Moving is a huge amount of work. I hope that you are rewarded with great adventures and a good new home when you are ready to settle. :star:

    Rita: I love your photos. They’re always beautiful. If you don’t need bone density support now, good for you!!! I got the bone density med after two falls, a couple of years apart, on unseen ice. Each of those falls broke bones in one wrist and then the other wrist. Exercise and good nutrition do a great job helping with keeping bones healthy & strong. :heart:


    Today’s food is lime & lemon jello. Tonight I take bottles of medicine to clean out my digestive tract, and tomorrow is my doctor's appointment. The prep is the worst part. This will be my second such procedure. The previous one was many years ago.

    Remember Katla, Bag Balm is a good barrier for yer derriere. (See I rhymed there😁).💖

    Rebecca and Katla Bag Balm for your Bum! What a good idea! We have Calmoseptine, which is essentially zinc oxide and menthol. Cooling and soothing. Colon preps are no fun.

    When I had to get 2 biopsies on my (who-ha), dime sized cuts, Bag Balm was the only way I could use the bathroom and not scream. this was back in 2014. The silly doctor gave me numbing cream, but in the middle of the night when you gotta pee, it was hard to wait for that to take effect! My husband uses Bag Balm for dry palm thing, so it was like instant barrier cream!😁

    Relatively restful day. Went for an hour walk this morning. Church service on line. Even though we met in person today for first time, my comfort level for groups not there yet. Got flower bed weeded. Really need to get a landscaper in to do something with front of house. Need something low maintenance. Has old landscape blocks just a couple of feet out from house and three rose bushes, didn't put anything else in this year. Thinking of just a couple of small shrubs out from the house a bit--maybe something with rocks.

    DIL still waiting on test results. Evidently they don't send results over weekend in Arizona. She seems to be ok except for cough and feeling a bit puny. No fever, which I think is good. She said a friend of hers grandfather got sent home from hospital because he didn't need a vent. If he needs more help he can call 911 and go to a different hospital. Sounds like it is a bit crazy out there.

    Glad I am not currently part of the colonoscopy prep group. I think I have my next one in about 7 years. They aren't horrible, but definitely not my idea of a good time. However, they so seem to be effective at catching problems early.

    Don't get deer in my yard, but they do pop up in different parts of the area. A few years ago some deer cut across a cemetery next to main building at work, ran across the street and evidently tried to run over cars in parking lot (heading to a wooded area). Did damage to a staff members new car--figured the deer went after the cadillac. However, no deer nor people were hurt.

    Heading in to watch some tv and get some sleep. Working out in the sun tired me out. Stupid heat intolerance seems to get worse each year, which is part of why I will get something done with front flower bed.

    Take care all,

    Ginny in Ohio

    Rebecca: I love your sense of humor, and your rhyming talent. :wink:

    Ginny: The deer here moved into town full time. It is an excellent place to be during hunting season—and garden season. I recently saw a group of two adult does and four half grown babies, munching grass in a shady lawn right beside the second busiest road in town. I think the second doe may have been a baby from a previous year. The deer repellant system I bought at ACE seems to be keeping them away from my bean plants & I’m keeping my fingers crossed that this lasts for the whole season. :star:

    Lisa: Your yellow hibiscus is glorious! Way back when, I went to Hawaii with my best friend after our high school graduation. We worked in a local cannery every summer for two or three years to afford the trip. We had tickets for an evening show and saw the dancers wearing grass-skirts and hibiscus flowers behind their ears. It is a great memory. Glorious flowers then and now! :flowerforyou:

    Kim: Your “face” is a lovely spaniel with a crown! Dogs are delightful and yours seems to be pretty & a good sport. :wink: The hibiscus is glorious. I assume you grew it. It brings back great memories of a visit to Hawaii right after high school graduation. My best friend and I worked in a local cannery every summer to afford the trip. We attended an evening performance with lovely hula dancers who wore grass skirts & hibiscus flowers tucked behind their ears. It is a memory I treasure. I’ve never been back, but my friend went there with her family after we were all grown up. :flowerforyou:

    The yellow hibiscus bloomed out today - the pink one was yesterday, but I missed the first bloom. I planted four, two red, one pink, one yellow. We'll see how they do... :) The yellow is attracting the bugs like moths to a flame...

    This sunny yellow hibiscus deserves an encore!!!

    Lisa - I so miss my hibiscus. We had several when we lived in the Houston area. They grew wonderfully there! Thanks for posting the pic!

    My back screened in porch is surrounded by Rose of Sharon plants which are in the same family as the Hibiscus. They make a lovely screen during the summer months. Lovely to look at!

    Rita – good news on the bloodwork. Beautiful evening pics

    – jello for breakfast, jello for lunch, jello for dinner…oh I remember and not looking forward to it in 5 years. The things that were listed as zero calories weren’t things like celery. Well, someone might have just made a mistake, that’s what I think. They might have been entering the entry, clicked OK, and just forgot to put in the calorie count. Fortunately, there is usually another more correct entry

    Did a body pump DVD today. The plan for tomorrow is to do an extreme cardio DVD

    Made some dog biscuits for a neighbor. I’ll give them to her if I take a walk tonight. If it’s still warm, I’ll go in the pool

    I forgot who made that collage, but I like it

    Now into the pool
