Since I wittered on about getting my garden manageable and winter ready and I am having problems posting photos to my profile I’m posting here cos, except for dandelions round the back grass which will need bought stuff to treat and maybe one more grass cut my garden is sorted. Yeah! Blank spaces in the back garden are planted with bulbs and room for the dahlias replanting in the spring.

@Tabatha_Cain ,,, Ohhh to sit around a fire pit is so relaxing!! After that weekend, you NEEDED THAT!! The smore's were just an added bonus!! YUMMY!! Hope work was great!
@Patti241,, Hope today was GREAT!!! I think we may land tonight! I have been sticking by to the 30 mins of exercise, but over this past weekend I was able to up it some. As long as I am NOT hurting myself I am okay with that. The chances of my wings being clipped again (Foot etc.) is always on my mind. Do it while I can!
@Lessennan ,, Oh Nan!! Your garden/yard is simply STUNNING!! It was so neat seeing how it was coming along!! You are so strong!! Its great your Dad taught you so much to make you the ROARSOME lady you are!! TY TY TY for sharing with us!!1 -
Good afternoon everyone, I am just relaxing after fixing up dinner, a beef terryaki stirfry with thin noodle it's waiting for me to get some but my right thigh went numb so I have to sit for a bit and let that relax some what.
@Tabatha_Cain must have been really nice to sit around that fire pit and enjoy some smores too. I hope today was a good work day for you.
@Patti241 glad you got out for a walk, the most I got out for was to take food scraps to the food bin lol BUT I have been doing other domestic engineering so those steps are up there !
@Lessennan oh I do love your garden, if I was your neighbour, i would be telling you how much I appreciate your effort as I am a numbskull when it comes to gardens. It is so beautiful and peaceful looking. Thank you for sharing !
@Dianedoessmiles1 you know your limit and you know what you can and canna do and if you push it tot he extreme, except it and the reward for that. I am sitting right now because I pushed it to the extreme and now paying. AND there are other exercises that do not use the feet on Utube that i know you know cause you have posted them. Hope your afternoon is going good eh !
The 50 yo son went to work today so it was nice to watch my videos I watch while he was at work. I am not sure if he works tomorrow, I think he just switched out his Friday for a Monday for someone. Amigo is happy on the bed listening to the click click click of my keyboard. WE are still in drought conditions. Usually it is raining, I am hopign the rain shows up SOON ... kinda fits the bible reading for this week, 1Kings l7and18!1 -
Good Evening Everyone!
Today was another productive day. Studied, went for a short walk, did some exercise, dishes and laundry. Then off to work. The residents had chicken leg/thigh baked in BBQ sauce, mashed potatoes, green beans, gravy, cream of potato and bacon soup and chocolate chip cookies. They really enjoyed dinner. Came home to nothing done that I asked to be done. Also Hubby decided he wasn't making grilled cheese and soup and that he was ordering out. He knows how much I hate eating out the day before weigh-in 🙄. Anyways that's my day in a nutshell.0 -
@Lindapost1 ,,, UGH SO SORRY you are not doing well today. Hmmm the domestic stuff ALWAYS needs to be done regardless of all else. Well, to most that is. Certainly I am in the boat of IT does have to be done. YEAH even with all I did today and yesterday I am okay. I also took a lot of time to sit here at my computer with my recliner in a zero G position so I am very very relaxed. That helps too. Please take care. Oh indeed on the reading for this week. We do not have a meeting this week, assembly this weekend on ZOOM. Likely well,, who knows,, LOL could be the last one totally on ZOOM.
@cseguin2 ,,,, LOVE days that are productive!! Nice job on the residents food,, WOW NO WONDER they loved it!!! YUMMY Bacon soup!! That just sounds so yummy!!! I am so sorry H is being hard on you. Sometimes a mate, BFF ,, just others in our lives are not supportive for one reason or another. For some it makes them feel bad about themselves as a mate, friend, family member takes charge of their lives, for others it's a total insecurity of "oh sure now that they look, feel better they'll find someone else!" Its a rarity that happens, most are happily ,, or content enough etc to stay with their mate, friends. I1 -
Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Monday went by super fast. I literally looked up and it was time for lunch and then I got back from lunch and then it was time to go home for the day. It really is good when you like your job. I am so thankful. Even though it is a pay cut. It will be alright. I will get the pay back up. We will see how it goes.
@Lessennan - That is great. It looks great. I love your greenhouse. I need one of those.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - It was so relaxing and calming. I was so happy. Did not want it to end.
@LindieMaeP - Glad you are getting time to relax some. It is nice to be able to watch your videos in peace. For your sake I hope you get the rain you need. It has been a tough rain season
@CSEGUIN2 - Sorry nothing was done when you got home. That can definitely be a pain. I don't like eating out the night before weigh in either. I hope it doesn't cause you to gain a lot.
Well it is time to get something to eat. I hope you all have a great day

Good morning friends! I hope everyone is having a great start to their challenges!
We have been pretty busy between work and school stuff and all the fall fun this time of year with our boys! Staying on plan though, still low carbing it. My husband has his follow-up blood work in the middle of the month to see how LCHF is working for his triglycerides along with the prescribed fish oil supplements. We are really hoping to start seeing his numbers come down dramatically! If not, the doctor will re-*kitten* with us and we may need to have the daily carb limit drop to less. Whatever is needed, we will do it!
I was gifted a little travel pack of resistance bands that come with a 90-day trial to workouts specific for them. My goal is to do those workouts 2-3 days per week, along with walks 4-5 days per week. Big college game day coming this weekend as well, and have been able to adapt some of our most treasured game day fare to be low carb, so weekend temptations have not been strong!
Have an excellent Tuesday!1 -
Lindie: I got a little bit of walking in yesterday.1

Good morning everyone, it's a nice cool morning, the sun is shining but not as strong as it has been, the leaves are turning and dropping and the sound of rustling leaves when walking through them invite pleasant memories. The Horse chestnut trees are dropping their bitter fruit - it's not fit to be eaten by humans, but squirrels might enjoy them. I just have to be careful they don't drop on my head when walking - that means maybe finding another way to and from Safeway for a couple of months but not a big problem. I am quite sure if those fell on my head, it would hurt lol
@Tabatha_Cain I hope today and the rest of the week goes well for you and isn't it nice to come home and not be stressed about work but to know you had a good day? It helps for going in the next day!
@Dianedoessmiles1 my C.A. is next weekend, the 15th so I look forward to that and do my exercise in the evening after the program. I still review all the stuff for Tuesday even though I might not attend. Enjoy yours and I hope you got your domestic engineering done ok.
@Patti241 a little bit is all I got as well but enough to product fitness minutes. Hope today goes well.
@cosmiccurves good to hear the LC is working and that you are prepared if you have to go lower, I am sure you have found some good healthy meals to have too. Great score on the gift bands, they are handy for sure! Mine broke, time for new ones lol Enjoy the game time eh !!
@cormierannie glad you enjoyed a short run, it's nice to mix up the exercise once in a while and it does not have to be for hours, even 5 min here and there can be a bonus cause they do add up eventually.
Time to see about lunch.
3 -
@Tabatha_Cain ,,,Oh its always a GREAT DAY when the day is over and it's time go home, yet you feel you just got there!! I'd get my supervisors laughing and laughing or a cashier replacing me by saying "WHAT?? YOU WANT ME TO GO ON BREAK!!??? I JUST GOT HERE!" Hehehehe and I'd been there for 3 or 4 hours. In time no doubt they'll make your pay worth the while. Nice to hear a great day! TY TY TY for posting it.
@cosmiccurves ,, SUre hope the numbers are AWESOME!! That'd be GREAT!! Part of my old football people are a coming back into play. Covid had shut us down some!! But LOL I got today "What time, can I bring beer over" text today. ABSOLUTELY bring over beer (I am a non drinker, but I do not care if others do so long as they are sober when they leave and they will be, they might drink 1 or 2 over 4 to 5 hours). Enjoy the lower carbs, there are so many great recipes out for all the diets/ changes one needs to make or wishes to make.
@Patti241 , ,GOOD JOB!
@Cormierannie,, GREAT JOB!! Getting in that exercise, and all is well!! YEAH!!
@Lindiemaep ,,,, Ohhh Linda, LOL I remember those types of chestnuts coming down a lot during the fall. We lived in Portland though a very nice part with streets lined with my chestnut trees, elm trees etc. I LOVE the sounds of the leaves crunching under my feet. I have already hehehehe influenced the little guy in that he also LOVES them as I do. The same excitement etc. LOLOLOL With my GD I did for the beauty of the leaves. To this day she'll suddenly just STOP , pick one up and that sweet look of wonderment still hits her. ENJOY the CA next weekend!! Oh i am definitely all studied for tonight, though we do not have a meeting. I did order a laptop today it'll be here on Thurs. WELL I HOPE SO!! Saturday I want to be able to type my notes while in the bedroom where it's more comfy for my body. I need to make it as easy on myself as I possibly can in order to maybe stay on through the whole day. I think I need to write to a br, about that.2 -
Good afternoon friends, hope your day is going well. I have am MRI appt, Oct. 18.
@Lessennan loved the garden.
I did a little more in exercise, is amazing video workouts are more intense then my own workouts, today I was sore, but did some yoga and stretches. Saw this joke and wanted to share, its me LOL
2 -
@Kurtize ,, Hope the MRI gives you some answers!! I had a pulmonary function test today using the bike. It'll be 7 to 10 days from now that they get the full report. Be nice if we both had some!! Ohh yes with cartoon, valid point!2

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all having a good morning. This morning is a little rough for me. At 4 am my cats knocked over my step stool and it hit my dishwasher causing my glass break sensor on my security alarm to go off. Which caused my alarm to go off. I had to run downstairs and turn it off and tell it not to call the police. Then when I went back to bed my boyfriend and I tried to go back to sleep but could not. We normally get up at 5 so no point when it is now 4:30. So I am awake at 4 am today. Love my cats. I really do. So I do have coffee and will probably require more coffee later in the day.
@cosmiccurves - Hoping hubby's appointment goes well. It is great when we are gifted with exercise equipment. I love resistance bands. I would try them out. Way to go on lessening the temptations. That is always great too.
@Patti241 - Way to go. Hope you enjoyed your walk
@macrat12 - It is so cold where you are but right now we are 39 outside in the mornings. Then in the afternoon we are about 60 or 70. Good luck on getting your rings closed.
@cormierannie - How is your daughter doing at her job? My son left his job and is currently looking for a new one.
@LindieMaeP - I am sure those would hurt if they hit your head. I have acorns in my back yard. So those would hurt too. It is so nice not to have to stress about my job. I love my job and I enjoy going in every day.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - I love that I can do my job and it just passes right on by. Like I am not overly stressed to make a sale or anything.
@Kurtize - What was the workout video? Is is on youtube? I am looking for new videos
@NovemberGail - Hi! How have you been?
Well it is time to get my breakfast going. I hope you all have a great day.

@LindieMaeP -Ian was to blame for all the rain we got on Saturday/Sunday. Nothing from fiona. But at this point (Wednesday), now we are just getting regular rain. Thx for checking. Aw I am sorry you guys are in a drought. We will in a drought and starting to get the voluntary water restrictions (like not watering gardens) but then September happened. We are back to normal.
@Dianedoessmiles1 -we just got lots of rain on Saturday/Sunday. Yeah we are so used to the weather report being off. We more depend on weather.com for our forecast. It's usually pretty accurate. Yup we had snow in the forecast this past monday but we didn't get any-just rain thank goodness! Yeah my kids are used to needing winter coats with their halloween costumes.

Good afternoon friends.
@Tabatha_Cain it is called Grow Young fitness, I signed up for a year when it was on sale but I also bought some videos.

@Novembergail ,, HI Gail!! I tried to leave a comment on your blog yesterday, it wouldn't let me. Said I was blocked, but we are friends on MFP so NO CLUE what that meant!!
@Lindiemaep ,, at that it is!! Can change the song of "raindrops keep falling on my head to "Horse chestnuts keep falling on my head"!
@Tabatha_Cain,, I hate getting woken up in the AM!! This AM it was a friend texting me about TOMORROW so WHY NOT WAIT until a half decent hour? EASILY!! "I AM UP I FIGURED EVERYONE WAS!" Hmmm "NO" LOLOLOL I do not get morning people! I just do not. But, I am grateful I am not one.
@Cormierannie,, ENJOY the day also!
@Kurtizie,, I hope we do!!! It's been a bit for the both of us!! Happiness ,, Love happiness. When we are content with ourselves, it all comes into place. Thankfully.
Today we got the car inspected today. We had a coupon (normally I DETEST coupons even with prices being what they are!) there has been a recall on our car so we asked them to check that out also. It took 2 hours (the recall part isn't easy to access for them) so we went to the Maine Mall (Largest Mall in Maine) and shopped for most of that time. We did stop to use the massage chairs, just throw in $5 for 15 minutes. Of course it's preset to a person of average height. I'm 5'2" my friend with me is 4'9" (being generous here! LOL) so we aren't tall, but it still felt really nice!! The car easily passed (14 point state inspection) so YEAH!! YEAH!! Great price with the coupon less than $30. WOOHOO!!! The car uses synthetic oil so GREAT DEAL!! We've been SMILING ALL DAY!3 -
Good afternoon everyone, busy morning and now afternoon. I went to the optomitrist to have my eyes checked and got a new prescirption so ordered glasses there ( yea it is more but I want to support my local community ) so 715. for the glasses and 88.00 for the exam itself. The cateracts are holding, so surgery is not needed at this time, infact surgery would possibley require a retina transplant at a 50/50 chance and those numbers are not good enough for me to chance it. No guarentee the transplant would take so why rush blindness. I have an eye condition called Fuch's Dystrophy which does eventually lead to blindness but I am not there yet. Flax seed has helped to keep my eyes healthy. Along with a good diet for eye health -well all my body needs health or I would not be here LOL
@Dianedoessmiles1 you funny girl, you know that ? LOL I looked for a small ham to cook, could not find one anywhere but they did have an already cooked maple ham so bought one cost 14.00 I better get a lot of eating out of that. So tonight I will have ham and yam fries lol oh and other green veggies too. Gene is out playing with the new leaf blower he bought - it also vaccuums up too, he and a neighbour are testing it out. She's done landscaping so she can advise him on things.
@Kurtize yup happiness and contentness - it can be had now dispite our health issues.
@Tabatha_Cain - oh no to being awakened by an alarm ! I've slept through them and my son has had to wake me up I hope your day was good dispite the lack of sleep.
@NovemberGail beautiful picture - thanks for posting, yes the colours are achanging !!
@cormierannie oh it is a beautiful day here also and once my eyes are no longer dialating I can enjoy it more lol I look forward to the sunset ! Glad your daughter enjoys her job, it makes it so much more worth while when you enjoy what you are doing.

Good Evening Everyone!
Hugs and prayers to all who need them. I scanned through the message to catch-up.
Yesterday was a very busy day. First was to take the garbage out here and across the alley. Then got ready for and to my TOPS meeting. Gained 3.75 lbs🙄. Came home had lunch and got ready for work. Residents had meatloaf, baked potatoes, corn, soup, and butterscotch pudding. Came home had a quick 15 min dinner and back out the door. Went toy Fair board meeting and didn't get home till after 10 pm.
Today was a productive day. Went for my walk and did some strength exercises. Also did laundry and dishes. Went to work this afternoon. Residents had pork chops, scalloped potatoes, mixed veggies, and fruit cocktail and vegetable soup.2 -
Good Evening! Autumn energizes me and I am so pumped up. The last two days was productive and been gardening, cleaning cottages, some paper work and still time for quiet and MFP. My heart goes out to those suffering from Ian. I can't imagine that much devastation. In Missouri we are having a minor drought, blue skies and temperatures in the 70's during the day. The skies can't seem to get much bluer.
That pretty well catches you up on what is happening in my world and answers your question, @Tabatha_Cain.
I'm glad you like my photos, @LindieMaeP. With the fall beauty, it's difficult to take a bad photo. I am glad to hear that you are taking good care of your eyes. As I age, I am taking nothing for granted and grateful for the health I have.
And, @Dianedoessmiles1, I haven't unfriended you, so have no idea what happened with the blog.
I decided to name this photo, The Gates of Heaven.

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. My day is going great so far. No wake up to my security alarm going off. Yesterday at 4 am my cats set off my glass break sensor on my front room so the alarm went off. I could not go back to sleep after that. This morning I had a bad dream about my boyfriend. I needed cuddles after that one. So I got some cuddles from my boyfriend. Not sure why I had the bad dream and I usually don't remember the dreams I have had. So that was odd.
@bookieNJ - Glad you didn't get a major hit from Hurricane Ian. I am praying for everyone who was affected.
@Kurtize - Thank you. Is is only in your area or is it on the internet?
@Dianedoessmiles1 - Glad your car passed the inspection. That is always a good feeling. I can't do the massage chairs either. So I know how you feel.
@LindieMaeP - Glad that your eye doc appt went well. It is nice to hear surgery is not required right now. I did not know that Flaxseed was good for your eyes.
@CSEGUIN2 - You had a late night. Sorry about the gain in weight. I am going to have to cut back on what I am eating. Glad you had a productive day.
@NovemberGail - Glad you are so pumped in the fall. I love fall too. I love summer and fall. Heck I really like all the seasons. I just don't like being cold. That is my only pet peeve about winter is that I am cold all the time. I love the photo.
Well it is time to get ready for work. I hope you have a fabulous day.
Tabatha2 -
Lindie: Yeah it was a short walk but I did get it in.
Diane: Thanks
Tabatha: Thanks and I did enjoy my walk2
