    Had the left over curry for my lunch. :D
    This afternoon I'm going to shop at the deli around the corner for a few fresh things. Having homemade wholemeal pizza tonight, with a green salad.
    Feeling a bit discombobulated today after yesterday's multi change of plans, so I've scheduled a phone call with Gwendolen for later this afternoon. Always good to talk things over. <3

    Love Heather UK xxxxxxxx

    Official wi today, down 1.2 lbs! YAY! This is what not snacking all evening will do for me.....
    Heather, congrats on the Fatto a Mano win!
    Kelly, Tracey, and Rebecca, thanks for the photos of the kids! Good looking bunch!
    Lisa, the look on Levi's face was just priceless! Too bad about the Farmers market. Hoping things will pick up for you. Although, like you said, you did sell to all four people that showed up.... That's a win, a small one, but a win nevertheless.
    Kim, brilliant idea about using the power washer to clear the sewer pipe! Sure glad you were able to resolve without the need to call in costly, professional help. Congrats on getting your financial picture more secure also!
    Penny, best of luck with your move!
    Had many more comments to make, but of course, time has faded my memory and I just don't always have time to do more than read. And now I must dash as I do need to get my walk in before it gets too warm again today. Not California warm (thank heavens!), but still hitting high 80's to low 90's. Too much for my blood!
    As always, hugs to those needing them, congrats to those celebrating and welcome to the newbies!
    Evelyn, Vancouver Island

    Barbara: Thanks for letting us know us that SuziQ is still on mfp. :star:

    Rebecca: Your cards are charming. :flowerforyou:

    Heather and Tina: I have no intention of walking or driving to Illinois in any season of the year. :noway: Summer is too hot and winter is too cold. I will willingly fly to Illinois to visit our daughter and grandchildren. :wink:

    Dandl1986: Comfort animals are a blessing to those who are in hospitals, nursing homes and schools. Bumble is likely to be welcomed and to bring smiles to those who need a bit of joy in their lives. :heart:

    Barbara: I like baked potatoes well enough, and new potatoes even better. I am also a fan of brown rice. I use tums to minimize & stop cramping in my feet at night. They are very effective for me. :bigsmile: I am happy that SuziQ accepted your friend request. :flowerforyou:

    KateUK: Congrats on getting into your pants. I had gallbladder issues in the long time past. It was very painful. I had only one gallstone, and it was the size of a robin’s egg. I was delighted to have it removed. I’ve had no trouble since then. :bigsmile:

    Heather: I think you did the owner of Fatto a Mano a big favor when your Google review was posted. It has prompted him to make changes that will improve his service and make customers happy. I hope you enjoy your next visit there for a meal. :smiley:

    Allie: Hiccups are unpleasant. I have had great success by drinking water from the back side of a glass. I bend over and drink the water upside down. It sounds silly, but it works for me. Good luck. :flowerforyou:


    I have a first appointment with a new doctor today. My previous doctor resigned and is a now stay at home mom, spending time with her daughters. I hope that I like the new doctor.

    Just got home this morning- It was a good weekend with mom but I am so ready to rest up after all that-
    I got over 12,000 steps each day I was there and didn't track calories but know I was way under every day- too busy to eat or too tired to really fix anything.
    I planted four 100ft rows of corn, three 100ft rows of green beans and another row of Lima beans then one of two 100ft rows of okra. I did all this while mom decided to use the weed eater around the yard. The only thing planted in the main garden is what I listed above that I did.
    She does have some stuff in the raised beds but even some of them aren't planted. Everything is 6 weeks late getting planted.

    The weekend wasn't all work. We went in to the church and did food program/food bank- That day was LONG- only slept 3 hrs before being up at 4:45 to head in to town, came home and went right to work in the garden- didn't eat anything until about 3PM. Sunday we went to church and then I went out and visited my aunt for a few hours which was great- it cooled down by the time I got home so back to the garden. Yesterday was my best friend's mom's memorial service. Weather was perfect and the service was nice. As a memento some of us were give tea cup and saucer from a set their mom had collected- it is Impression glass I think they said- pretty green. I have quite a few other pieces of Carnival glass that I bought when they had a garage sale, other pieces my friend just gave me. Back to the garden again yesterday afternoon.

    On page 44 now so need to read and catch up on all the posts.

    Chose well: Thurs BP, chiro, typed hymns. Fri: T’ai Chi


    Debbie, Kim, Barbie what did I do to cause the baby zucchini fruits to fade from green to yellow from the blossom end? Transplant shock? Overwatering? ???

    Lighter, lovelies!

    21-Send a positive note to a friend who needs encouragement-Rd’A.

    Pizza night at the firehouse, held it down to one piece of pizza, one quarter pc of cake and one and a half double chocolate brownies. Thanks to dog walking, shopping and frenzied last minute veg prep exercise, kept CI < CO. Better plan on doing some frenzied cleaning tomorrow in prep for K’s visit and lunch with C.

    Welcome @pstruthe Pam! Congratulations for starting. Baby steps will get you where you want to go.

    Katla how long will your trip to DS/DDIL be? 3 weeks? More???
    Michele good bye skunk!!! You are one brave gal, I wouldn’t have gotten close enough to check for breathing :noway:
    KJ :love: the niece story, the popsicles before breakfast pics and the walk a different park every day idea. Enjoy your vacation!
    Allie that is quite an impressive savings!
