Worked But I GOT TO THE GYM!!!! I did a 20-40-60 workout on the treadmill. Came home, got dinner ready, then went to Aldi then WalMart. Newcomer bowling tonight.
Can’t explain it, but at bowling I had these stomach cramps. They probably won’t last real long. Also, I have no idea what I did to my one toe, but it hurts. My feet, for some reason, were bleeding but I couldn’t find a cut. I bet that’ll go by soon
I have a head of cabbage that I want to use up so the plan for tomorrow is to work and then make soup
Anne DE – what language are you studying?
Allie – phew! I’m tired reading all you’re doing. Don’t overdo it, now

Tomorrow I am off early to Seattle to pick up my sister at the airport. We have appointments at the Swedish Cancer Institute. Last scans showed two tumors.. one on the lobe of the liver and one in the brain. Both tumors may need targeted radiation. It will be good to know the plan going forward. We are so fortunate that she has such a wonderful caring team of professionals. She is in good hands. Cancer is such an ugly disease.

Can you get tested? These days we're not supposed to go out at all if we've got anything like a cold except to get tested.5 -
TINA I think sometimes switching off from family can be great. it depends on families situations, and so on. I bet you are in great shape w 1.5 h exercise per day even if it hasn't shown up on the scale.
ALLIE I hope you feel better soon.
MICHELE you are so active! with w/O bowling, etc.0 -
Morning all. Just having a quick browse.
I plan to have a relaxing day with no distractions. DH and his pal have gone out birdwatching for the day.
Beginnings
The morning sky is tinged with gold
towards the rising sun.
Such beauty makes the spirit soar.
A new day has begun.
It offers so much promise to
the open heart and mind.
Be brave and stride towards it
and see what you can find.
The peace and quiet fills my soul
with energy supreme,
to take the necessary steps
to realise each dream.

£10,000 to spend in one hour?
I would buy a hot tub and/or a sauna, depending on prices.
Love and best wishes to all, especially those who are dealing with the vagaries of life

Accountability:Chose well: 143.1 , Joe, readings, BP, dogs to powerline, Tumble to dog group, mfp50+, CI<CIO, CI<250<CO, steps >7400, active 4.57
Bonus: transplanted 4 aloe veras, 35 mins grooming Tumble
Workin’ on it: H20x6
Happier January 2022
26: Choose one of your strengths and find a way to use it today. Research? Stubbornness?
27: Challenge your negative thoughts and look for the upside.
Chose to sit with Joe and watch old time TV reruns (Streets of San Francisco, Perry Mason) while sipping tea and nibbling biscoff, instead of doing T’ai Chi and osteo back. No regrets. Chatting, reminiscing, a treasured, lovely time.
FINALLY transplanted those poor aloe veras. Found 4 tubers circling the bottom of the plant, transplanted those too, hoping they’ll either feed the transplants or sprout new ones in case the transplants fail.
Julie hope your dental appointment is painless and successful.
Beth thankful for your Dad’s pt miracle.
Heather “… to listen and how lucky I am right now.” Double blessing.
Alexandrafindsherself1971 ((hugs))
Allie my phone said something about a snow blizzard/bomb headed your way. Tell Lil’s daughter you’re sick and can’t go out, nor should Lil be exposed to you. Do you have any zinc or zicam? They really help minimize my colds.
Debbie your endless pool idea.
Rebecca so sorry to hear of your middle sister’s being bedridden.
Barbie will be very interested to hear what reaction if any to the shingles vaccine. I’m on the fence, but those commercials are so very doggoned compelling
Tina so very happy for you being able to run again! Self care and vacation plans sound exactly right.
Michele both feet are bleeding, not just the one with the sore toe? Kinda scary!
Betsy prayers for your sister and for you. ((hugs))
Terri a hot tub and a sauna sound pretty good to me too.
Joe’s up! And so is my time here. Whooshing thanks and love to you all.
Lighter, lovelies!
Barbara, the Southern Oregon Coastie AHMOD
2022: Be still and listen.

I'd like an endless pool too. If I had loads of money I could convert the garage into an indoor pool. Fabulous! A girl can dream.
I love swimming and I'm good at it, but I only do it on holiday or cruises.
DH out for posh pub lunch today. Hooray! It also means I will only make a snack dinner for him tonight and I can have something crazy and slimming, just for me, probably spicy oriental soup.

Have read some of the other ideas for that imaginary windfall! The endless pool sounds very appealing but it would have to be heated. 😂
Allie: I agree with Machka. Getting tested and isolating is the sensible thing to do, especially with the health problems you have. You need to take care of you, my dear girl.
Tina: it is frustrating when other people won't listen to reason. Sometimes all you can do is switch off and take care of yourself. Your vacation is an ideal way to do that.
Heather: It's good to know that you had a great day with your friend, G. And yes! When I talk with others I am frequently grateful for how fortunate I am right now.
Betsy: Praying that your sister gets the treatment she needs with a positive outcome. (((Hugs)))
Brother-in-law and sister-in-law called in on Monday afternoon to collect the battery for her scooter, which we've been keeping topped up for them. They flew back from the States at the weekend. They had had their PCR test that morning and had already received the negative results. It was great catching up with them and finding out how they got on over the Christmas holidays. My niece (their daughter) has recovered from her bout of Covid over Christmas. No one else in the household got it, thank goodness.
On Tuesday I went to our craft group meeting. It's in quite a large room. There are there were six of us there, and we were all spaced out. It's lovely to be able to chat face-to-face with people.
On Wednesday we went out early did and our usual weekly shopping. No problems with supply this week. All the festive fayre had been cleared, and the shelves were awash with Valentine's Day and Easter goods.
Today I am planning to tackle my overflow wardrobe. It's become a bit of a dumping ground, so determined to root out some clutter. I'm not sure how much of it will be useful for someone else, but I will donate as much of it as I can.
I'm choosing to please myself for the rest of the day.

My new sweater has arrived and I'm very happy with it. I'm so glad I swallowed my pride and bought a size up. 😅 Perfect fit and I won't be self-conscious.
I also printed out the Valentines card I made with my new app, Canva. Very happy 😊.
This morning I wrote 400 words of my new book and also revised an old article and sent it off to a newspaper. Nothing ventured . . . . . .
Now waiting for Amazon to deliver Valentines presents and also a supermarket delivery is due any minute.
Girls Zoom this afternoon.

Betsy, hugs to you and your sister
Allie, today is the day to take care of yourself and let your family and friends take care of themselves.
Barbara, it's only the next morning, but my only reaction to the shingles shot is a soreness in my arm which I used as an excuse to take Tylenol at bedtime. We have been planning to do this for a long time but now that I hate going anywhere especially where there will be people and standing in line, it was a big deal to change into a short sleeved shirt and go to town (five miles away).
Today is the day I cook the turkey. It will be a great adventure with many great meals as the outcome.
Terri, good luck with your wardrobe. I hope it is a satisfying endeavor.

I study French and Spanish. I've had both before but I forget so fast!
I'm dreading the scale tomorrow. Another cookie binge last night. I had roasted a chicken, and eaten a leg and that put me over calories. So then I ate more while cleaning the meat off of the chicken, and then since I was already over (terrible logic here!) I got into the cookies. When I let Teddy out at night, he gets a cookie, and it tempts me. Then if he takes his time, I have two more. That is the old pattern, but I can change it!

PS - I'd also have a sauna with my endless pool.

Prayers for your sister, Betsy
Tina, hope you can relax and unplug
Nothing new with Mom. She's still being a good girl and doing her ot/pt and wishing she was "home".4 -

Allie--I agree take care of yourself first.
The $10,000 I would go to Slumber Land and buy new furiture for my living room. Would not take me long to spend in that place. But then a home pool would be great if I could build it inside a shed with heat. Lots of windows so would not feel boxed in. Have the prefect place in the side yard. Oh to dream.
Betsy--Prayers for your sister.
This weather is crazy. A couple days of cold and now this weekend in the 50's again. No wonder people are ill.
Slow day at work and going to the gym on the way out of work today. third day this week. Tuesday I skipped as the guy to do work in the kitchen was to come and give us an esimate. Second time we set up an appointment and once again he was a no call, no show so I will be looking for someone else. He called after a couple days the first time and said he had been sick with Covid so gave him a pass and rescheduled. But done now.

We are hoping to find a puppy. We were referred to a breeder by our veterinarian’s staff. We are hoping for a telephone call from the breeder today or tomorrow. Keeping my fingers crossed that this will be a pleasant visit that might lead to seeing the puppies. Our last dog was a sweet little boy, but he had serious health issues & passed away from cancer.
We miss having a dog in our lives & home. We’re hoping for a healthy puppy, and will enjoy training a new pup.
