    So happy for Josephine the ballerina. Hope she gets lots of dancing in.

    Pip - beautiful job on the patio. Looks like a wonderful place to relax. Good luck at the doc tomorrow. Hope they can determine what is wrong.

    The new fridge is in and running. Slightly smaller than our old one but lovely to have it.

    Believe in your capacity to change, Sue in WA

    Karen, so happy to hear about Josephine the ballerina, such good news!
    Pip, the patio looks great!
    Rita, sorry that things aren’t great right now, hope it turns around soon!
    Lisa, unfortunate that family members don’t always see eye to eye. Totally understand your ambivalence, I’m sometimes quite happy to have been an only child! Love the thought of the angry gopher cutting Corey’s hair, I really did lol!!
    Debbie, sure hope your hubby gets over the tree parts that landed in your yard. Living with him must be so difficult.
    I’m sure there were other comments I wanted to make, like Tracey said, I hope the comments I make in my head count!!
    Hugs for those needing them, congrats to those celebrating and welcome to the newbies!

    Accountability:
    Chose well: Joe, readings, BP, dogs to GB for nail trims, steps >7400, CI<CO, CI<250<CO, active 3:28
    Bonus: beach walk with Joe and the dogs, typed two new hymns, fire district board meeting minutes,
    Workin’ on it: 143.7, H20x5,
    Friendly February 2022
    23: Be gentle with someone you are inclined to criticize. Including myself.
    24: Tell a loved one about the strengths that you see in them.

    Joe drove us to the beach on the way to nail trim appointment. Dogs had a great romp on the sand, but [brr] that wind was chilly. Really enjoyed the ocean views on the way back, from inside the nice, warm van ;)

    Pretty sleepy so just skimmin’.
    Hugs to and prayers for Rita, Lisa, pip, Vicki, Alexandra, Allie’s brother, Heather’s friend G and everyone else who needs em. Ditto Carol’s prayers for the world.
    Lighter, lovelies!

    Morning just a quick visit to catch up.

    Rita: (((hugs)))
    Pip: 😍 the patio
    Katla: Hope your family recover soon.
    Julie: I hope you get the scooter business sorted quickly.
    Machka: It’s such a pain when you get the runaround on line. It’s supposed to be straightforward, but it seems that companies seldom iron out the bugs before systems go live.
    Karen: Great news about Josephine.
    Heather: Glad to see that you are on the mend.
    Tina: Beautiful photos. Not surprised that you keep going back.

    Finally plucked up the courage to try the evening wear on. Bit lumpy-bumpy, but it still fits! Relief!
    My bright, summer print, long dress also just fits and will, be great with a shrug.
    The glittery dress I bought for a laugh for my 70th birthday cruise, (complere with tiara), I can just about squeeze in to. :o I will take it, but probably not wear it. It was tight two and a half years ago!

    Heather, happy in Hove :p xxxxxxxx

    Pip - I think your patio looks great! Love the lights. I've been wanting a patio since we moved in, but DH does not agree with me. :#

    Pip ~ Love your patio and as another said, you have a very good sense when decorating.

    Heather ~ That dress is so pretty! I know you will enjoy wearing it on your cruise.

    Machka ~ I wish I had you energy for the garden path and patio. It will look lovely.

    Morning ladies

    Well ladies I'm having a down day. Nothing is personally terrible, but a lot of things are going poorly. I chatted with a guy on okcupid and he disappeared mid conversation. I think he was a scammer and I wasn't a good target. It always gets my hopes up then dashes them.

    And I looked a little to see where I would move if my parents sell this house, and that was depressing. The desirable areas are too expensive.

    And so on. In the rain everything looks grey and dreary. Maybe some exercise will bring back some cheer. At least I am safe, warm and dry. I shouldn't be complaining.

    My grocery store was totally out of soft cream cheese in all flavors, so I bought plant-based cream cheese alternative, I’m not a fan. Maybe with some strawberry jam.

    I am awake and glances out the windows reveal frost and fog. I’m drinking my first cup of coffee. This would be a yoga day but I have tripped and fallen twice in the past couple of years on days like this. Today I will stay inside until the frost is gone.

    Beth Yay for Mom's hearing aids!

    Pip that patio is a beautiful space to relax! Good luck at the ER. Sometimes going through the ER makes the insurance easier because they will accept it as an emergency. But it still is a royal nuisance and takes patience. Hope you get a clear actionable diagnosis.

    I feel better after my exercise. I did 58 minutes of yoga, including a few seconds of side plank, a reasonable pigeon, and a wobble that was a preliminary crow without the balance. I'm finally seeing some results from all my dumbbell work. Yay! I also did 8 mins of elliptical and 6 mins of marching.Yay!

    Pip, thinking about you, and Allie, thinking about your brother. Sending all the good vibes in the world. Beth, so pleased your mom is cooperating so well.

    In the waiting area now. Gave me a norco for pain but it hasn’t kicked in yet. Kirby is in the car, took yogi for a walk around the area. They mentioned doing a ct scan and an ultrasound.

    Sending healing vibes wending your way, Pip.
    Hope your brother is OK Allie.

    The mobile battery change man came late in the afternoon, but it's all done. DH will be much happier leaving the car with a new battery in it. Good system and much cheaper than getting the Honda garage to do it.

    I've ordered a new black shrug to go with my summer long dress and various other sleeveless things. It should arrive tomorrow. I'm happier with my upper arms covered. ;)

    Love Heather UK xxxxxxxx

    Had an interesting morning so far ;)
    Started out just after midnight. DH was leaving for work, not watching where he stepped and, yep, stepped in IT- cat poop. This time I just laid in bed, pretending to sleep while he cleaned it up(coughing/gagging/making a LOT of noise). usually I get up and clean it up, especially when it happens when he is on his way to work-
    This morning, got the mail and checked my cc bill- WAY higher than it should have been. Check- three charges to DoorDash.I know for sure they are not mine. I have never used door dash, never even have food delivered plus all three are places no where near where we live. Called the cc company. Took a while to get through but I did and now have to wait to get a new cc then change my card number to the accounts I have it linked to. Such a pain but better than those false charges- They charged $50,$68,$89

    Found out last night that mom still hasn't ordered the potting soil so won't be going up there this weekend to plant the green house. Hopefully by next weekend. I told her I would come up. Spend the weekend before my birthday with her. It will be nice to spend it with her. If she doesn't have the soil, we will just do some weeding or what ever or maybe, just visit. Her friend bought her trailer so she will be moving to mom's soon. This may be the last weekend for just her and I(unless Joanne moves in before that).

    This weekend, hoping to work in my garden- get it ready to plant. May buy some of my plants and not wait for the ones we plant at mom's- some I will but not sure how much.

    Hoping the scale moves lower finally this weekend- still tracking but it isn't moving.

    Have a great weekend ladies

    (((Pip))) Is Kirby there with you? Ask him to give a hug from me and likely many others.

    Thank you!!
    yes, the neighbors came over the next morning. It was a lot larger than they thought so came back over with a truck, cut it up and took it away- very little sign that it had even fallen. Really nice people. Kept apologizing

    YES- living with him all these years has been hard and getting harder-Hard to believe I have put up with it this long- married almost 30 yrs. If I do not agree with him, I am wrong.


    Pip-hope they figure out what is causing you the pain and it is an easy fix.

    Debbie
