    Picked up Bea from school. Oh my, what a power she is! So much energy, creativity, invention, etc.
    She was trying to work DH'S computer art thing. Made a good start, though she shouted for DH a few times. It has been such a good lesson for me, seeing how children approach learning new things. I am encouraged to make messes! :p
    My son came to pick her up for swimming. He seemed knackered! We are having all of them on Thursday as the parents have to go to a parents evening for the girls. My DDIL asked if we could keep them until 8 pm so they could go out for a quick meal together. They hardly see each other as life is so busy. I said yes, of course.
    I'm going to buy some gluten free pasta for Edie for Thursday. She loves making salad dressing for a salad! :p

    Going to watch our recorded Vera tonight. Then I will retire upstairs to watch a decluttering programme.

    Love Heather UK xxxxxxxx

    :) Just like complaining can be a more familiar default than gratitude or appreciation, it is often more familiar to make the case for the shortcomings of others rather than their strengths

    Debbie ~ I'm sure you have thought of this, but, could all those cats be contributing to your asthma?

    Carol in GA

    I have certain triggers with my asthma- cold(cold air or when I get a cold), stress and smoke.
    The cats are around me year round and for the most part, winter is the only time I have a real problem with my asthma. This is the third winter in a row where I got sick and the asthma kicked in and I couldn't get it under control for too long.

    Lisa and Vicki- I hope those work for you. It took a couple tries to get it right and I did have to trim a bit of the edge the first time but now it works great. One pack will last a long time. I just use 6 times around for my pinky ring.

    Debbie - I am so jealous! That's a great price on Dungeness, my favorite crab. <3 Are you just going to serve the meat? Make crab Louis? Salad? Crab cakes? Our Safeway ad comes out tomorrow. If I see them I'll have to make a run to town and splurge.

    I ate 1106 calories today, with 85 grams of protein. Yay!

    Well I am eating back six calories of my exercise calories, but that's no big deal. Next time I will add flavor to my chicken with spices instead of the smidgen of barbecue sauce. That had more calories than I expected.

    Dumbbells tonight!

    I don't know if you have the same ad as we do. This one ends today. I was going to get them earlier but was at my mom's. Check and see if it is the same up there. Worth a run over to get them.
    I will make some cocktail sauce and also having dh pick up a salad. May make pasta with butter/garlic and add crab to it.
    5 people will be eating it, I think(sadly, only one person cleaning/cracking/shelling though )
    This is my favorite and never seen it this low. Was happy when we got it at Costco a few weeks ago for $5.99 a pound.

    If it is your ad today, be sure to download the digital coupon. Just using your card isn't enough.

    (((Debbie))) Lots of hugs for you and your family!

    Carla & Beth ~ Sorry to hear about both your mom's.

    Beging Talked Over ~ That is such a thing around my home. Both DH and Son do that to me. We both have to yell at son in order to get a word in. DH does it because he doesn't want to hear any suggestions.


    Carol in GA

    sounds like my dh- no suggestions at all. If I don't agree with him, I am wrong.
    If I try and talk, he doesn't listen and changes the subject to something revolving around him.
    He even says when I say, I told you that, oh, I wasn't listening.

    Aren’t all men like that??

    Nope, they’re not

    I say if they want crab ,they can help crack crab... lol
    Kylia- your story and Kellys were both a hoot,when my daughter was born ,the covering Dr graduated high school with my husband.. here i am in pain and there chatting away lol..

    Kylia - Lord,that was hilarious.

    KJ - Your high school QB, too! B) Sorry about the man cold, it's much harder than having one ourselves.

    Machka
    - You look serene and relaxed in the sunshine... Your dry stream is really looking good.

    Rori -
    Mars also looks serene and relaxed in the sunshine.

    Allie - Glad you're feeling better, dear heart.

    Annie - Thank you, what a nice thing to say.

    Jewelry - Had to take my wedding ring off, as well as my ruby ring, because my fingers have skinnied down to the point where I'm afraid I'll lose them. Tried ring sizers, but they are uncomfortable and weird feeling. I don't ever wear necklaces, as they make me feel as if I'm choking. I did wear ear studs, but between having to wear a mask and glasses, as well as a phone earpiece most of the time, I kept yanking them around, so I quit wearing those, too. Now that I don't have to wear a mask, I will wear earrings occasionally when I leave the house, but I seldom remember to go find a pair before I'm out the door.

    I have to admit - I do love being past 60 and not giving a flip what people think of me, whether it's jewelry, makeup (I don't wear any), or perfume (don't wear that anymore, either). What's funny of course, is that others never really did care about me. Most are too worried about what people are thinking about them to think of me.

    Humans are weird.

    Later, y'all,
    Love,
    Lisa

    Does anyone wear perfume anymore?

    It's banned in most workplaces, I think, and strongly discouraged in public transportation.

    It's so rare that I smell it on anyone.

    I don't wear jewelry except for holidays and dates. I never wear perfume because I went through a time when I was allergic.

    Mary hope you get back in okay!

    Pip Yay for Lucy not bleeding!
