I Love this @Whidislander!
Hello I am jumping in. I am over 50 with 10/12 pounds to go, a restarter on MFP, love to garden and be out in the yard. Of course this isn’t me but.. I can dream. 🙂 fc from az
Nice to meet you! That wasn't me either, but I have a yearning to visit my homeland, and there is a dairy farm in Trondhiem, Norway where they'll take you in and let you stay a spell if you're family!
I need to lose about 90 lbs but it'll take some time, didn't get on my body overnight, so I don't expect it to just fall off me!

Hi You also! That would be amazing to visit, there is a dream that can turn to reality! You have the best reasons to lose, a beautiful place to live and a darling granddaughter.

Maybe, we aren't rich folks, but live within our means. My husband left the workforce fairly early at 51 yrs old, because of his liver. In 2014 he was able to receive a complete liver transplant🙏💖. So I appreciate just seeing him healthy now. We are quite homebodys! Traveling just kind of puts a hiccup in my life.🙃😁. Yes my Athena is my sweetpea, and I'm her Mimi.💖

I think the last 2 years has made more homebodies than not. Glad your DH is healthy!

Indeed! I am glad husband is good company! We converse at mealtimes, but much of the day he's in his side of the house, and I'm in mine. A little separation is a good thing in general. We appreciated our eldest son when he was here, as a room mate. He's now stationed overseas, as well as our youngest sailor son. We travel summers to our middle son and his cute family, that's about a 5 hour drive here in Washington State. I have two sisters in Oregon that I visit too. Of course any time we're in Oregon we visit my husbands side. We were both raised in Oregon, him a city kid, me a country girl. His momma turned 89 this month, bless her heart. She's from Arkansas, and a tough old cookie!

Didn’t fix my present diffs with MFP.

Thank you Terri ( My friend's name is Teruko but goes by Teri).
David was in surgery from 8AM- between 3-4PM then a 2 hour MRI then half hour after developed a high fever.
Waiting to hear back how he is doing today.
Because of them isolating him since his first cancer diagnoses/surgeries/covid..... Teri has not seen him in 2 1/2 yrs. He was just starting to walk the last time she saw him. He just turned 4 this past week.
I am hoping that the hospital let both parents be with him during this surgery. The last ones just the mom could be there so she was alone, stressing, while he was in surgery and while he stayed in the hospital each time.
Debbie
@Debbie David is so young. The family will be in my prayers.

Carol- i have my own carseat for the car.. ha ha but its not like when my kids were little.
They have infant ones with a handle now that clip into a base that you leave in the car..so you haul kid and car seat in and out of wherever you need to go..
I bought diapers at Costco last week and bought size 3.. we tried them this morning and they fit.. much better than the size 2 Sams ones..those Sams ones he was constantly wet..
So we wont buy those again..
Tracy tried feeding him a bottle this morning .. ha ha silly goose like thats gonna work...
I did order a normal carseat for my car. Even though a friend of mine gave me one ,I dont want to take chances with rules and regulations of older ones.
Of course Tracy is worried about me carrying him without a carseat because he is a wiggle worm..Ill be ok..
He is rolling over and trying to get up on his knees and crawl.. but those gums are really bothering him..
I did buy some of that hylands teething medicine you suggested.. and i hope it works..poor little guy all he did was cry yesterday
Hope the teething tablets work for Miles- They have worked with all the kids I have tried them on (and there have been a LOT over the past sssooo many years)

Jake had some sort of scary heart related event during his nuclear stress test this morning and a short time later he got a call from the cardiologist's office that they are going to schedule him for an angiogram at the hospital an hour's drive away. It may or may not require an overnight stay. His way of dealing with stress is to talk endlessly about what is bothering him and my way of dealing with stress is to watch tv or read and say nothing until there is actually something we can do about it. It makes for interesting times.

(((Barbie))) Thinking about you and Jake.
Annie - Glad your uncle is home!
Long day, exhausting, and my allergies kicked in something vicious. Pollen is covering everything outside. But, this too will pass.
Reading about your lives and thinking of you all... welcome to those who are new - always pleased to see new women join the group.
Later,
Love,
Lisa in AR3 -
Barbie All our best to you and Jake. Heart trouble is so scary. Keep us in your pocket!

My three sons keep my heart busy, just missing those guys. Two overseas, and one 5+ hours away, but such is life. Both my parents passed, but still have my two sisters. My middle sister is dealing with neuropathy issues, and her family situation kind of toxic, so I keep my distance a bit. My eldest sister and I get along really well. Hoping to see her this summer.
Our last visit last summer. Her big dog Tucker who thinks he's a lap dog.🙃😁💖

Awe, yep, we are. It hasn't always been this way. Years ago our relationship was strained, and disjointed. Talking to her on the phone was like talking to a stranger. I think she harbors much angst about all the time I have devoted to the Navy, following Lee around, and not "my passion". I'm right where I want to be, and she thinks I should be more. When I visit with her, its great and all but she is always wanting to put makeup on me, trying to fix my hair differently, having me wear better clothes. I suppose my next visit, I need to set her straight. I am a no frills gal, and she needs to accept me.👍💖

Annie wonderful your uncle is home.
Debbie, Prayers for David and his family.
It was an enjoyable lunch. Everyone was so supportive. Out of the 6 gals lunching today, three of us are widows now. I got lots of hugs and we did a lot of laughing and some crying. After lunch I worked in the yard and have two huge bags of weeds and trimmings. I am physically tired tonight and it feels good. Tomorrow I have my last post op of cataract surgery and will get my new prescription for glasses.
