Karen the weighted blanket is a great idea! I’ll check into getting him one.

I'm sorry you're sick. Let us know how your appointment goes. I have one scheduled in February. Has anyone made dietary recommendations for you to follow?

I started logging my water. There is room for improvement!

Worked so no formal exercise. I will probably go to the gym tomorrow a.m. and use the stairstepper. Then I just need to stop at BK for about ½ hr
Ornaments – we have one that we put on the tree every year. Vince bought it when he was 7! So you know that it’s over 60 years old
Tracey – OH NO, that broken ornament. I would be crying for sure. We have a tree made of macrame that MIL made
Lanette – regarding predicting weather, another thing the weather channel might do is look out the window.
Allie – good luck at your appt.
It’s cleared up (was raining this morning) so I think I’ll go for a walk but just around the block since I really don’t want to walk in wet grass.
Oh, water is dripping again at BK. Jerry jury-rigged it to help that water doesn’t get into the food. Not sure how much that helped. It still dripped down on me. I was laughing to him (this makes him feel good) that I was going to attach my umbrella to my hat.

This is my third day on the mango smoothie version of my diet. Do I look skinny yet? Lol I am doing better at intelligent snacking. Today I had a tilapia filet for 100 calories where I used to eat cookies. I won't weigh myself until Friday though.
I microwaved the mango chunks this time to make it easier on my little blender. The resulting drink is still chilled but not icy. So that works.
Off to do some walking. My shoulder is much better, just gently sore instead of yesterday's huge tweaks of pain. But I'm still holding off on the yoga and dumbbells until next week.
I ordered some dishes from Amazon. It feels weird to take over that function from my mother, but it's just another step in the transition.

Vicki and Allie hope you are feeling better soon.
I was going to stay in Alaska until 12/8 but my sister is having medical issues so I'll leave on 12/3 and meet her in Seattle. I have thoroughly enjoyed being with kids and grandkids and so far haven't gotten a bug.

Waiting to see the Dr now.. raining and windy,but drove slow.. it's about 26 miles down here.. not to bad I guess.
Will see how things go and what this Dr has to say.
Everytime you come in to a drs office now they put a hospital bracelet on you.. gives me shivers lol..reminds me of the hospital.. don't want to be there again..5 -
Allie - I hate those stupid bracelets, too. They can just ask me my name, they really don't need to scan. Last time I was at the hosp. they did cut it off for me

who is off to bowling2 -
Back from the Dr.. sheesh what a hairy rainy windy drive home.. but got here safely.. made myself some tomato rice soup and took some cold meds.. im tucked in now with Alfie..
Like the new Dr.. he is 1/2 my age lol but nice and my levels have been stable for a couple of years so i get bloodwork and go see him in 4 months..3 -
Pip- I remember that porch pic of Kirby! It's my favorite too. Feel free to post it as often as you like, as I feel it does us all a LOT of good. I have decided that Kirby will make my gratitude list today; you will also make the list due to your willingness to share his loveliness (inside and out) with us. Thankful for Pip and Kirby in Michigan KJ (Kelly)
I read this to him, he was just smiling. He said that he’s glad he hasn’t gone bald, lololol5 -

Yay Chispas! I wish I could walk six miles! I can do thirty minutes, so maybe a mile and a half.
I tried tracking my water today, and fell short. Usually I finish strong right before a deadline, but that would mean big gulps of water right before bedtime. Nope.

I am getting ready to move. Tomorrow I will go to an apartment across the way from DH’s nursing facility. He is working hard to get better and I will be able to visit him every day. We belong together.
I told the manager of my current apartment building earlier today. It is a friendly departure and I know I will be welcomed back if I ever want to return. I’ll likely be in and out for a day or two.
I am happy to know I will be able to see DH every day.❤️

My two hour nap this afternoon was delightful and threw my schedule off. Here is the new thread for December. See you there.

No fruit except avocado? 🤷🏻♀️0

I cannot remember what I commented on and I do not know how to see my history that you are commenting on. But we eat all the fruits that look good and are a decent price. We do not eat too much avocado due to Mr. being on Warfarin and avocado es having high Vitamin K that interferes with that drug. Everything in moderation and try to include everything in the weeks menus…that is what our motto is.0
