Lisa: (((Hugs))) The not knowing is very wearisome.
Kelly: 😱 Yikes! Glad no one was badly hurt. Bravo caring coworkers.
Kate: 😍socks. They look warm and colourful.
Carol: That sounds encouraging about Allie posting kitty pics.
We managed a walk after lunch when the rain let up briefly.

Meg ~ Thanks for the update on your cats! They are both lovely and know you miss Rex. My first cat was a sweet Siamese and after her death, I think we got one of her litter mates who was also a sweety for 15 years.

Hi everyone. I don't know where the last 2 days went!
We had nearly 12" of snow Monday into Tuesday. Even The Weather Channel was here, that's how exciting it was LOL. Everything was pretty normal by Tuesday afternoon. Now it's just gray and cloudy, but the snow is gorgeous.
Thanks for the kind words about my cat. We had two littermates, Rex E Muss and Riley Pusskins. Rex was the one who died, but Riley is still with us. We will be getting a least 1 dog and 1-2 kitties sometime in the near future. I'd like to have 2 dogs and 3 cats , but that's 1 animal more than allowed. DH wants a Staffordshire Bull terrier (a little "pitbull") because he used to raise them and we both just love them. I want to continue adopting older beagles and actually I'd like a little pack of them! Maybe we can "Permanently foster" an old beagle, and he wouldn't count!
The white faced one is Rex, the one with the black on his nose is Riley.
Well, it's time for lunch and then back to work! Take care, Meg from Omaha
LOVE the picture!! Littermates are so sweet together. We have two sets of them(plus the mom of one set)- all formerly feral cats. We have 7(that sure wasn't planned) so no plans on adding to the family for now. Love how they all have totally different personalities.

Well? What have you enjoyed recently?

I have enjoyed walking outside, even during our 2 short snowy days.1

Did Cathe Friedrich’s You Can Do Anything for a Minute DVD. The plan for tomorrow is to do a Gilad Step Aerobics DVD. We shall see how that one goes. There was a little step in the video today and I was careful of my foot. That bone is weakened and I sure don’t want to re-fracture it
Kate – I could never make socks like those. It probably would help if I knew how to knit, too….lol Great job!
KJ – I am so so sorry about your daughter and grandsons. Oh, your heart must be aching. I know mine would. What a week..and this isn’t even 2020!
Woohoo…I’m getting up there…9 day streak!
Heather – you reminded me, anyone know where PJ’smom is?
Kate – no problem here with Kelly’s posts
Carol – that’s wonderful that Allie posted. Going to check them out right now. Unfortunately, her posts don’t say anything about how the surgery went or how she’s feeling right now. Worried. She’s the kind of person who doesn’t want others to worry about her so she’ll keep things inside of her. I can see her not posting something if it isn’t positive so that worries me.
Mrs_Hoffer – thanks for the instructions. Yes, but did you use a small jar to keep it down or did you use the cabbage leaf? If you had it to do over, would you use the same method? I’ve got my jar, just need to get the cabbage. I know Food Lion has it on sale for 59 cents/pound but I want to check out Aldi’s price first. Update: Aldi had it at 59 cents/pound, too so I just got it there
Days getting longer: I suggested to Vince that he might want to consider changing the timers on the landscape lights to come on later. I know I’m rushing it.
Went to Aldi, my list for there was getting pretty long. They had bananas on sale for 18cents a pound. Guess what is in my freezer right now?
Kylia – 150 beats a minute??? Wow! So glad those meds are working for your hubby. Hope they continue to work indefinitely
Meg – love the names of your cats
Margaret – thanks ever so much for passing on about Allie
Debbie CA – Isn’t it amazing how each cat has its own personality?

KJ - Must have been very scary for the little guys not being allowed to have anyone with them and knowing mom was hurt. Glad they are all going to be OK. Great she has support from fellow workers.
Kate - Lovely colorful socks.
Glad we have heard at least something from Allie.
My favorite flower is carnations. I have enjoyed just working outside. It is chilly but hyacinths are beginning to come up.
I have done really well on food and logging the last 2 days. Just need to keep up with it.
Everyone take care, Sue in WA0 -
Thank you for the update on Allie.
We are officially off Outbreak Status at work today. 74 days. We will still be swabbed weekly for the foreseeable future because not everyone is vaccinated and we will be allowing visitors soon. We don’t want to, but we are going to be told to by the powers that be.
My cousin got some sleep last night and just keeps repeating we need a visit.
I told her I’m ready when she gets home and settled.
My niece has come out to her parents and her Mother had permission to tell me. I don’t know why it has to be an announcement anymore. As far as I’m concerned you love who you love and Family and friends shouldn’t have a say.
I forgot my ice pack at work today. I have a water bottle in the freezer to do for tonight.

Just received an update that Dillon is considered paliative. Doctors don’t feel his lungs will recover.

Oh my, well friend PLEASE tell me how much it will be when you ship it. I know the box you sent weighed A TON! And thank again!
All you guys help keep me happily being a pen pal-er, without breaking the bank.💟

{{HUGS}} Tracey!
What brought me joy today was first watching a grey squirrel then a red squirrel playing in the backyard while I was listening to my training webinar. After that was done, I was just sitting playing on my phone when a patch of blue caught my eye. I looked up to see a Bluebird sitting on the branch! It was beautiful! Now, I see Blue Jays and Cardinals all the time, but the Bluebirds are more elusive. About the time I got the camera ready to take it's picture our friend showed up and scared it away. My MIL loved bluebirds and hummingbirds. The funny thing is I immediately thought of her when I saw it. Tonight while looking for something by my husband's work bench, I found her Bluebird magnet that must have fallen there. I wish I knew what she was trying to tell me......
Steps = 11,313
Protein= 26%
Water= 60 oz
Passed test for webinar with 98%
Got laundry done
All in all I would call it a successful day. I have a doctor's appointment in the morning at 8:00. I can't remember if she wanted me fasting or not......she was concerned with my cholesterol numbers last visit. It may be on my portal. Will check once I post this. I make my appointments early because I don't want to miss work
(they depend on me) LOL!
I got my husband nothing for his birthday. I really have no ideas. Bummers! Maybe I will make a small chocolate cake in the morning (his favorite).

All my meals for next week.👍 This was today's feast!
Chicken, cabbage, zucchini, onions, olives, diced tomatoes, cooked in olive oil, and a bit of garlic paste. Added chicken Better Than Bullion, cayenne pepper, turmeric, hot shot spice and salt. Heaven. Ate a Tillamook marionberry yogurt to tone down the fire.😁😋
Hugs
Rebecca

Klyia -congrats on the great webinar.

Margaret: Thanks so much for letting us know that Allie is okay.
Meg: Your kitties are cuties. :bigsmile::
M in OZ: I’ve enjoyed spending time with DH and the dog. I worked hard today and decided to get a scoop of chocolate peanutbutter ice cream at the ice-cream shop. It turns out that getting a scoop there helps me to be satisfied with one scoop. If I buy a larger quantity of ice cream I have trouble with self-discipline and end up eating too much.
Tracey: I’m sorry about the news on Dillon’s lungs. I hope for a miracle for him and improved lung function. :flowerforyou:
I did some grocery shopping today and spent the rest of the day at home. I watched TV veterinarian shows, from Doctor Pohl to Doctor Kay. I love to see the birds and mammals, but I’m not a fan of snakes. :noway:
Have a great evening.

Tracey - That is so sad about Dillon. DH'S nephew is a nurse in charge of a big palliative ward. It has been a very long year for him.
Plus he caught covid last month. Tired. For him the light is a new baby due in February.
Long Covid is going to be a health problem for a long time to come. I think my old lover who died in December was another victim. He was ill in January when no one was looking for the virus and never got over it. Even mild illness at first can leave you with long lasting effects. My elder son is one, still struggling with fatigue, and recently a return of anxiety. He thinks he had it in April. He says he is feeling better now and has resumed his video making. I was worried for a bit because he wasn't doing them as regularly.
I hope for the best for Dillon. Lots of love to you and his family.
What did I enjoy yesterday?
Walking by the sea. Getting my grocery delivery. Chatting with the grocery girl. Being with DH. Watching a Danish TV recording. 
Hearing that my friends have got their vaccination appointments.
(((HUGS))) for Bananas.
Love Heather UK xxxxxxxx2 -

Julie-HUGS People are even meaner these days. Apparently I think people feel the internet makes them "invisible". That may not be the right word. People say things in emails and online that they wouldn't say in person. I don't "know" you, but I feel that what I do know is that you are a caring, supportive, disciplined person. Mean people suck!
Scale was done this morning! Happy dance! I usually weight a few days to post new weight to see if not just a fluke. I believe this one though thanks to walking, tracking, and yes, all my water yesterday.
Placed help wanted on our work Facebook page on Wednesday. Had two applicants come in Wenesday and 3 applicants on line yesterday. I gave them to SIL. (Not MY job). Lets see if she follows through! I really need a pick up/delivery driver, at least one mechanic, and would love another counter helper since I can't depend on her. The first two are the most important.
I just told my husband that I was sorry I didn't get him a birthday present. I couldn't think of anything and I haven't been anywhere. He said he already got his present....me 😍
I better get my teeth brushed and head out to Dr and work. There will be a coffee stop after Dr!
