Sunday's Eats ~ Cottage Cheese/Lemon Yogurt with Berries, Lemon Curd and Chocolate Chips - Kiss My (Shimp and) Grits https://theresacooks.wordpress.com/2014/11/12/kiss-my-shrimp-and-grits-from-the-skinnytaste-cookbook-by-gina-homolka/ with Sautéed Spinach and Mushrooms - Oats & More w/ Almonds Cereal
@Tabatha_Cain You are quite skilled at problem solving so I'm confident you will find a workable solution and will be able to teach your son how to parallel park. Some stores like Sam's Club and Costco and some shopping centers have parallel parking spaces that you may be able to use after they close. Trash cans may also work if you have access to any.
@TEXASTITCHER Your pansies are beautiful and it must pain you to have to pull them up before they die.

Hi, everybody!
I've been mostly MIA for a month. I went in the hospital on March 8, had two emergency surgeries (bile duct stone removal on the 9th and gallbladder removed on the 10th) and was home on the 13th. Not a fun time, but doing better. Actually walked on the treadmill for 30 minutes and lived to talk about it. That's my limit for a couple more weeks. I have one more surgery on April 27th (stent removal) with a follow-up the following week, and that should be it. Until then, I am limited, but will do as much as I can to help my team get to their destination every week.
More soon!

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you all have a great morning. Today is day 1 or 2 at my old job. I am still waiting on an email from my new job on what I need to do in my first days. So we will see how that goes. I am hoping to get that today. I kinda wanna know what is going on and where I go and such.
@Catwmncat - Thank you for that. We were not able to get the parallel parking done this weekend. Some other stuff happened that prevented that.
@catnurse1 - Glad you are doing better. One more surgery will hopefully not be that bad. I hope you heal quickly.
Well it is time to get some food. I hope you all have a great day.
Tabatha1 -
Happy Monday to everyone.
@TEXASTITCHER -Those are gorgeous pansies. I've never heard of pulling them to make heat tolerant flowers. That is neat.
@Catwmncat -That shrimp looks delicious. Have a great Monday.
@catnurse1 -Glad you are feeling better and healing nicely from your surgeries.
@Tabatha_Cain -They used to have the cones already set up at a local driving school. so when I had to teach my kids, I had them drive there. That was many many years ago...lol. Hope you can find some where to teach him. Fun stuff!
@LindieMaeP-Gorgeous flowers. Wow...snow! Hope it melts right away for you. I am hoping we get one more good snowfall. I love it. They got 18 inches in the UP on April 1. That is where my sister lives. I wish I could have been there to enjoy it.
I have Wyatte for two days. It is Spring Break so we shall see what activities I can find today to keep him busy. They always have fun stuff going on for the kids around town.
Hope everyone has a great day.

Good afternoon all. Loved all the pictures. Diane me time is always good. As beautiful as yesterday was toward evening we got thunder storms, lots of rain and tornado sirens went off around 6 for at least 15 minutes. If it hit near here we hadn't heard. Today is another beautiful day, 84, haven't seen that the weather will change today but tomorrow again lightening and thunder storms. We shall see. Got in my strength and some cardio exercise. Getting better and stronger each day. Taking it slow and easy.
@catnurse1- glad the surgery went well and your feeling better, hugs
Have a great rest of the day, hugs and blessings.

Apple Chicken Sausage, Scrambled Egg Beaters and Dave's Raisin Bread - Spiral Ham, Purple Potato and Yellow Squash - Caramel Rice Cakes with Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chips@catnurse1 You have been missed! I'm so sorry to hear that you have had to endure so much and needed several surgeries, but I'm grateful that you are doing better and the recovery is going well, so far. Please continue popping in here with updates and your usual chat.
@Tabatha_Cain Try to take things in stride these last two days at work and just go with the flow concerning the new job. They will ensure you know where to go and what to do.
@ginnaboots It's nice that your town has fun stuff for the kids to do while on break. I don't know of anything that happens around here other than an egg hunt (wonder if they will use potatoes this year... LOL!) and pictures with The Bunny for the little ones. Nothing for the teens so many just hang out at the malls.
@Kurtize Love today's daily affirmation.
@LindieMaeP Glad all went well at the dentist. Fabulous picture.1 -
Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is my last day at my current job. Kinda sad as I love all the people I work with. I just could not take the owner anymore and he lack of respect for all that I do. Plus the pay is way better at my new job that the current job. I just feel extremely sad that I am leaving them without someone to fill my position as that is not what my boss has been working on even though he should have been these last 2 weeks. I feel like he has not worked hard enough to get anyone in the door so I could train them.
@ginnaboots - I am looking. There has to be some where to take him to learn. I hope you are able to find something fun for Wyatte to do.
@Kurtize - Glad you stayed safe with the tornado sirens going off. The weather has been rainy here too and apparently there was some hail last night. Not super warm here though.
@LindieMaeP - Glad your dentist went well. Love the flowers.
@bookieNJ - We were not able to find a place with the cones. Maybe this weekend we will be able to.
@Catwmncat - I am taking it in stride. Today is a little sad. It is my last day and I love my friends at my current job. I am nervous that others at my new job will not like me.
Well it is time to get some food. I hope you all have a wonderful day.

@Tabatha_Cain -sorry you weren’t able to train your replacement. I am glad you are excited for the new gig! We ordered them off Amazon—about 2 years ago? Maybe check the bike section?1

Good afternoon all, hope your day is going well. @Tabatha_Cain hope the parallel parking went well. I have only paralleled park once since I got my driver's license, it took me a few tries, haven't done that since, I will drive around until I can just pull in to a space or park in a lot even if I have to walk a bit.
I got my license when I was 16 (in 1958).
Hugs and blessings

Good afternoon all, it turned out to be sunny today and a little warmer then yesterday. Got a nice walk into Safeway this morning and picked up a maple ham, and a few other things that were needed. I dont' drive anymore so canna offer advise on that. I took driver's ed with ON AA and got my license that way. That was a long time ago and cost me 60.00 and that was a lot of money at that time.
@Tabatha_Cain I hope your last day at work was on your terms and you left feeling you did all you could dispite your boss. You did learn a lot while there, so it was not a waste of time, if I recall your boss let you do things your other job did not. Now you have gained more experience you get to take elsewhere! Will you have some time off between jobs and maybe just do BK ?
@Catwmncat glad you and Tabatha_Cain both liked the picture. BRING ON SPRING !!! lol

@Tabatha_Cain Although leaving the friends you made is sad you can always stay in touch and you will be much happier once you settle in to the new job and make more money and friends with less stress. No reason they won't like you... if they don't that's on them, not you. I wouldn't give the fact that no one was hired in for you to train a second thought. You were ready, willing and able to train someone and there was no one brought in for you to do so. I also wouldn't make myself available to help or assist with anything after you have left, but be prepared for them to contact you with questions and ask for guidance.
@Kurtize there is not much of a need to parallel park where I have lived so although I can do it there have been times that I have gotten out of the car and had hubs do it instead. I'm always nervous I'm going to hit one of the cars.
@LindieMaeP Nice that you were able to get a walk in the sunshine and get a some vitamin D along with that ham. Those flowers are beautiful and so Springy!

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today I am really nervous for my new job. I really am. I think I am going to work out before going into work instead of after work like I normally do and then I will try and get both workouts in today. I think I am going to need the workout. I am really nervous. I did talk to them and they said that everyone there was excited to meet me. So we will see how that goes.
@bookieNJ - I will have to give them some looking for.
@Kurtize - I do the same thing. I will not parallel park if I don't have to.
@LindieMaeP - Yes I did learn things that other bosses did not have me doing and I am forever grateful for that. No I do not get a break between jobs. I start my new one today and stopped my old one yesterday.
@Catwmncat - I am sure they will be reaching out with questions. They did not get the full training that I wanted to give them since the boss would not give them time in the day to get a full grasp of what I was doing there.
Well it is time for me to get some food. I hope you all have a great day.

Good morning!
Cat-That meme is hilarious! My husband is very good about doing the dishes, but that is all he will attempt, but he cleans carpet in big commercial buildings so I will cut him some slack...lol. You have the best meals. That cube steak looks sooooo good.
Lindie-The pictures are stunning. Keep them coming. Although I do not like spring and summer, I sure do like seeing the pretty flowers.
Tabatha-That is very kind of you to be concerned about whether your boss hired a replacement, but that is on him. I wish you well today on your new job. Hope your first day goes well and isn't so stressful.
Happy Wednesday everyone!1 -
Happy Wednesday. Storming this morning but nice now. Yesterday on an eating binge, don't know why but doing better today. Have a great rest of the day. Hugs and blessings.

Good Evening Everyone!
Sorry I have been MIA. I have been struggling for a week to do anything that pertains to my healthy journey. I was in a funk unless I was with friends. I slept and laid around and ate most of the time. Thursday, Friday and Saturday was spent out with friends. 2 get togethers and 1 concert. Hubbies attitude didn't help any either. Do to this I gained again. At least not as much as I thought I would.
Last night after talking to a friend I went to bed with a plan. It worked for most of what I planned to do. I even got a walk in that wasn't planned as the rain had stopped for a bit. Today another friend told me it was time to get some perspective and shared hers. Here is my response to her: Such a great idea! Let's see I have lost over 90 lbs since the beginning of my journey in 2018. I am down from a 3x to a large shirt. I am in a large or size 16 pants from a 28. As I was writing this I wanted to add the negatives that have happened but I am refusing to acknowledge those thoughts. I will not feel sorry for myself. I have allowed myself to hurt myself long enough it's time to buck up and geter done.
Tomorrow I will get up when the alarm goes off. I will do something productive until it is time to go for my walk. I will go for my walk. I will have breakfast. I will complete my workouts. I will do chores that make me feel productive and help me enjoy the beautiful weather that's predicted.2 -
planes planes and more planes, have been flying in and out all day over my head almost !! I got the above pics standing on the corner across from the little park by me. I did not even have to leave home pretty well. Every 2 - 3 minutes a plane is going up eihter big or small ! They were doing this all night too and kept me awake. I hope I can sleep tonight, I might just close my window - I like to keep it open but the noise of the planes is not fun when you are tying to get to sleep!
I hope you all had a good day today and you found some fun things to do! Have a good night.
