    Kiz North Florida hello there, nice to meet you! I'm on Whidbey island in the Puget sound area of Washington State. Yes the quotas are ridiculous, and the amount of sailors they allow thru is really low. For my youngest overseas sailor they allowed 100% of the sailors going for 2nd class in his rate, but it was like 20% advancing into 1st class. So youngest will most likely be a 2nd Class for awhile. For my eldest sailor son, it was 60% advancement 2nd to 1st this testing phase. In the scheme of things, it takes a lot of followers to make the Navy run as it should.👍💖. If there are too many "cooks in the kitchen" its chaos! Lol!

    :) One the most freeing things I've done for myself is to stop giving gifts and asking others to not give me any gifts. We send a modest check to grandchildren under age 18 on their birthdays and that is all.

    Jaimie – welcome! There are lots of women here who have over 100 to lose!

    Somebody hit (not bad but bad to Vince) his pride and joy. We don't know when it happened. This is the car that if it's raining out, he doesn't take it out. The mechanics know that if it's raining out, he won't be in if he has an appt. They've mentioned to him in joking (??) that his wipers will rot out....lol

    Lee and I are the same. While I do make a box for Christmas for Athena, a gift for her, and cards for each, I don't get Birthday gifts, mothers day gifts. I am fine with a nice meal! My MIL still sends money to me for my birthday!

    Did the second part of Cathe Xtrain DVD then went for a walk. The plan for tomorrow is to do a Core Fusion (this is a pilates) DVD

    Kylia – thank goodness you missed that deer! They can really do some bad damage. I get my honey from a man down the street from me who has hives in his backyard

    Debbie – all the reviews I’ve read about the air fryer lid say that you can’t cook as much in the IP. Yet, how much do two people need? And it’s not like I’m cooking for grandchildren. Denise never comes here and won’t for a long time. Jess will soon have her career and most likely a home. But who knows where?

    If you are going to do much drying, it would take a LONG time to do enough to make it worth it with the air fryer lid. If you really want to dehydrate a lot, a dehydrator is the best bet- They are just about $40 on Amazon(I just sent one to former dh for his birthday)

    Happy Saturday. Well I did get to go home for 8 hours, but did not get much rest. One **** strom went through, 85 mile hour wind and hard rain. DH checked the window in the basement we have problems with and it did leak. So have the fan going on that to dry the carpet out and hoping we don't have to pull the paneling down again. Then the hospital called as a wind blew out and they were not sure who to call. So I am back at work until atleast 6pm and see what happens. Lots of water everywhere inside the hospital.

    Tracey--HR knows and says they are doing what they can to find help, but people do not want to work. What great memories. It doesn't matter what something costs, the fact that we spend time with our grandchildren is what makes the lasting memories. The chair is so cute.

    Girl still not back tonight, so I got someone to come in and work the 6p-6a and I will be back in the morning. Had to let the lady know last that I will not be there to do Sunday school tomorrow. I am praying they find and hire someone soon as this is just not working out for me.

    Blessings, Vicki GRAND ISLAND NE Where another thunderstorm is going though. Not as bad as last night some wind and heavy rain. <3

    Is yours a private hospital?

    Hello, Ladies!

    It's my first week back on the wagon. I saw my cousin on Father's Day, and she suggested we team up and be serious about our weight loss goals again (in the past, we've done WW - but separately). It's so nice to have her with me - we text each other every day now, and I'm feeling like we can actually do this thing this time. She recommended that I check out Pahla B's YouTube channel and I'm trying her 5-0 method, and landed here to count calories. Hadn't given my weight a second thought in quite a while! Sooo... Anyone else got 100 to lose? :# ..when I weighed myself I was 25 less than I thought, so that's good. lol
    Is there a group for 50+ women with a long journey ahead?

    welcome Jaimie- LOVE your profile picture. Hamsters are my favorite- used to raise them plus hubby #1's nickname

    exactly

    my mom (anti-gift giver for bdays xmas obligatory dates) was happy to give things to others on other days but not by obligation. it's so much more uplifting to give something (maybe tiny) spontaneous and as a surprise to others (and maybe to us) when the we feel inspired to.
