Good Morning Airport Friends:
Today I am raking leaves outside. I have a lot I have to get done and then things that I want to start doing. I have to be at a public place at a certain time today to give someone some things they purchased from me, I have to be at my mom's to get more venison meat and then I also want to get the floor mudded and get the door handle into my bedroom door. All things we are doing to improve the house so that when I go to sell it I can sell it for a little more than It would normally go for.
@macrat12 - That is a lot of cases. I remember unloading merchandise trucks at my long time ago job. I loved it but I like what I do now better.
@cormierannie - I can actually see the sun today. Great day for yardwork.
@Kurtize - I do sometimes. My back and legs are sometimes but my wrist is all the time. I had surgery on my write to repair a torn ligament and ever since it doesn't bend right so I cannot do push ups with out pain or anything that requires me to put weigh on my wrists. Due to my back issues I can't due sit ups anymore. I just don't have the strength and things hurt when I try. My legs also randomly go numb while I am sitting down or standing up for too long.
Well it is time for me to get breakfast ready. I hope you have a great day.

Good Sunday Morning! ALL!
@Kurtize: Yes, Billie is a beagle and yesterday she thought she was a sphinx.
May you enjoy this autumn day of grace wherever you are!
Tabatha, I hope you get your to do list done. Doing things to improve the house is a smart move. I've been told it's all about presentation -- candles, simplicity, etc.

Good Evening Everyone!
Have read through all the posts. Hugs and prayers to all who want them.
Yesterday and today have been busy. Things ended up getting moved around between the days. Other things got skipped. Why? You might ask. Well I ended up getting called in for work yesterday for 11 am. Had to serve the meal the other cook had prepared. Was not great. Wish I would've had time to fix it. They had a choice of multiple deserts, served with cream of mushroom soup, hot dogs and coleslaw. For dinner I served mushroom soup, chicken quarters baked, scalloped potatoes, corn and rice Krispy squares. Really enjoyed working with a different coworker that actually does their job. Didn't have to work today as the one I replaced yesterday surprisingly felt better after a few hours and called and informed the manager. So today was move air conditioner to storage and bring back the Halloween decorations. Thank goodness my friend is so flexible as she gives me the ride. Also made cabbage soup, did dishes and laundry. All things that was supposed to be done yesterday. Got my kitchen back to the winter format Wich means moving the freezer from the bedroom to the kitchen. Greatful my Son came after he got done work to help and cook dinner. He left after lunch today.1 -
Good evening everyone, I hope your evening went well and you got all you wanted accomplished. I did my volunteer work this morning and then had the family picnic at a local park near my daughter's neighbourhood. We played a game called DIXIT. very interesting game but never won and I was ok with that. Helped my granddaughter with a tree assignment for her course - well she had to take pictures of them and their bark and take a picture of herself near one of the trees. She was said because a new baby tree is dying from the drought - no water from rain, and the soil is very parched. No idea when we will get rain but there is dew now so that will help some what. I wanted to pour some water on it from water I boght but she said it would not help it.
@Tabatha_Cain, I hope all went well when you went to meet someone for the items they were buying and you got your venison and your floor muddied. I have family near your area, but they are in Detroit. A long time ago my cousins used to live in Allen Park area. but no idea where they are today.
@macrat12 thanks for the recipe, I might try it sometime.
@NovemberGail ahh your Billie is so cute!
@Cseguin2 I hope you do not get called into work on a regular basis, unless of course you do not mind, you make some really good meals, can you cook for me LOL I can't really cook, I just throw things together and hope it tasts ok with Mrs Dash lol Glag you got things done and the freezer moved into the kitchen and the air conditioner put away.2 -
@Lindiemaep ,, Glad you feel better today (just saw the update on the news feed). And that you had the picnic!! WOOHOO!!! Indeed people felt so FREE to assault nurses!! When I was in the ER in May I heard the guy do it!! He hit her so hard!! It was horrific!! WHY did he hit her? "I WANT PAIN MEDS!" He wasn't hurt enough for them. OH MY!! She had to come right into my room my heart was racing to much, the machine was beeping with a red light. She made an adjustment to the IV, it calmed right down. I asked her if she was okay (she was facing away from me) I could see that made her fight to keep from crying. I told her I had heard him, how much I appreciate ALL She does for us. She thanked and thanked me. Indeed common sense and courtesy has gone out the window. I am so happy when I was in the ER in Sept they now have a sign that says "If your conduct is not respectful and it's not a dire emergency we may remove you from this hospital." AND THEY DID!! I watched the security guards one on each side of this guy still in a hospital johnny, get escorted OUT!! The place was pretty packed, you could see almost everyone had a smirk on their faces, a few fear (I wonder if they had planned on "acting out" to get what they wanted?) as they did so. ALL of them should be able to do this. Of course the medical profession knows if it's head injury they will act up and out, but that's because they have a head injury of which the behavior is actually a symptom.
@Novembergail,, we are HOPING YOU'LL RUN BACK HOME at the end of the challenge!! LOL Gail and I have been on the same team for the most part since she found the 5% on Sparkpeople. How many years has it been? Awww we also MISS BILLIE!! LOL Billie often has us all laughing so hard, though you may be pulling your hair out at times. Billie is a story dog for sure!!! YOU KNOW I am one of the SNOW PEOPLE!! WOOHOO!!
@Tabatha_Cain ,, Awww TY TY TY I hope I do soon but if it all comes back negative that is the answer he's leaning towards ,, though there may more than one thing going on. If there's more than 1 that may show up. Who knows!!! How did go with your D? Did you both have a good time? I want to see my GD again soon, YO that woman is so super busy now, and of course my GGS is now in school, though not yet full time. He's in Pre K. I'm not sure when her next vaca is, but Grandma needs some TIME!! HOWEVER WE ALL Know when the kids are young and in a split family time is always so short, so Grandma can wait (LOL MAYBE???). I have a few things up for sale also. What do you use to advertise on? I am finding more and more some will say they'll show up but they do not. I think I'm about done with it. It used to pay off.
@Patti241,, are you feeling better?
@Cormierannie,,,, HI Annie!! Hey great job!
@Kurtize,,, THANKS!! Today noticing BP is also quite low,,, that is no doubt contributing to the BLAHHH feeling. I see my regular Dr Tuesday, but will call my cardiologist tomorrow. I am pretty sure it's a med I am on that just needs to be adjusted. That may also resolve a few heart changes I am feeling. I HOPE SO!! I just had a workup and had no changes. Hope your weekend went fantastically AMAZING!! Have they been able to tell why you are in the pain you are in?
@Macrat12 ,,, did you like the dip? Did you alter it at all or make it as its written?
@Cesguin2 ,, OH NO DOUBT where you work is so grateful you are working there!! How many people live there? I was a supervisor at the large grocery store many years ago that I also worked during covid. I LOVED those who were flexible as you are. IN TURN I went WAY out of my way if they wanted time off. They were my highest priority and my supervisors also for being so good to me. I'd change around the schedule last second if any of them wanted that too. I hope where you are they realize they STRUCK GOLD!! Hmmm yeah these ones I had a say on their pay raise,,, and I'd easily ask for it to be higher. Often that was paid attention to. If you want your excellent help to stay you have to pay them to stay.
Yesterday wasn't my best day. Today I feel slightly stronger, but still not well. I knew you'd all understand if I missed a day. You are all so good!! TY TY TY TY!! Greatly appreciated!

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you all had a good weekend. My weekend went well. Saturday I went and visited my daughter for a couple of hours and then Sunday I worked on my hardwood floor in my bedroom filling in the cracks with wood filler. It is an old old floor. I just tore up the carpet 3 months ago so now I am getting it ready to be shined and like new. I raked the leaves outside in my front and back yard. I went grocery shopping and did some laundry and went to meet people who bought things from me. So all in all it was a very productive weekend.
@NovemberGail - Right now we are getting the hardwood all set in the master bedroom. We tore out the carpet and 3 layers of linoleum to find beautiful hard wood flooring that needs some love and care. So now just working on that getting it to look all shiny and beautiful.
@CSEGUIN2 - You did a lot this weekend. I am glad your friend was flexible. Sounds like your friend is really nice. It was nice to hear your son came over and helped you a bit at home.
@LindieMaeP - It sounds like you had a great weekend. Your granddaughter sounds very smart. I did get the floor partially mudded. So there is that. We are working in sections. I also go the leaves raked outside, a load of laundry done, got the venison and went grocery shopping. This weekend was really productive.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - I use Facebook to advertise. I am on a Facebook auction site I have been using. I also use Facebook market place. My time with my daughter went really well. We spent a couple of hours together.
Well it is time for me to get ready for work. I hope you all have a great day.

Hello all. I hope you had a great weekend, and to my friends that were not feeling better or is having problems; I hope all is going well and better. Yesterday I took a day off using the computer. I am glad I did and I think I need to do that more often. After my MRI tomorrow I am taking in my computer to be checked. Hopefully they won't need it for a while. LOL.
Have a great rest of the day and a wonderful weekend.

HI ALL!! CRAZY and very tiring day!! I took a friend to the Dr's while she was in there I vacuumed most of the car. It looks so GOOD!! Just a little bit left to do. After that we went to DREADMART (Walmart) it took an hour why that much time went by we have NO clue, but it did. After that we went to a furniture store, thankfully someone waited on her fast, well they got her right off. She knew what she wanted, it was in stock. So that was only about 20 mins, for the most part I walked around there. Once home hey IT'S LANDING DAY for the Positively Strong 4 Life team, LOL so we were working on that. I had several texts and calls from friends, family too. Indeed I am exhausted. I know you'll understand. I'll be back tomorrow and catch on up!! TY TY TY TY for being here, it's so much fun talking to you all!2

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you morning is going well. My BF and I got up a half hour before our alarms today. That is weird that we are syncing up and getting up early. We both end up being wide awake before the alarm goes off now. It is so nice to have someone who gets up like I do. I have to get up first thing in the morning and get stuff done and so does he. He is like that too. My birthday is coming up. It is the 23rd of this month. So this coming Sunday. I will be 43. I know my boyfriend has something planned I just don't know what. So I am excited because I have never had anyone plan anything for me besides my kids. I have never had a significant other who wanted to plan something for my birthday. It is nice having someone who cares.
@cormierannie - You are always helping people. You are so nice. I am sure your friends appreciate all your help.
@Kurtize - I hope everything goes well with your MRI and your computer check up
@Dianedoessmiles1 - You were super busy. We get it. I hope today goes well for you.
Well it is time to get ready for work. I hope you all have a fantastic day

I'm enjoying all the comments. Diane, you know how to make everyone (including moi feel so special). Tabatha, the home I grew up in had beautiful floors hidden under the rug. I recall mom polishing them and I was put on a blanket, pulled across the floor for the buffing.
I wanted to share these two photos. The color of the maple was incredible and it is so sad to see the leaves falling away.

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well. I am going to have a great day today. I have no heat at the office. They are suppose to have someone come look at the heat either today or tomorrow. I hope it is today. I want some heat.
@cormierannie - You know I know rain is needed but rain is so annoying. I need to get dry weather.
@NovemberGail - I just love hard wood floors. I want them in every room of the house. Might not be possible. I love the fall colors.
@Kurtize - Glad you got the MRI and you will figure it all out. Hope the computer gets fixed soon.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - It is great. So if I am wide awake and tossing and turning he will also be wide awake. It is nice to know I am loved. This is the first boyfriend who ever planned any thing. Love the beautiful photo.
Well it is time for me to get ready for work. Have a great day.
