    Oh, Tabatha, so glad that your day turned around and you had a great shower. Your pictures are wonderful and you look so happy.

    Lindie, you have the most amazing selection of photos. Thanks for sharing them.

    Hi Joyce! Too bad strawberries can't be sent through the computer.

    Ginna, glad you found the computer problem with the numbers. I was saving this meme for the spinner but it seems kind of fitting:

    Good Morning Airport Friends:

    I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is going to be a great day. I have to work. It is suppose to snow again today. Luckily the snow is not really sticking on the ground. It is just making the ground wet. So that is good. I think I have a medical issue. I am hungry all the time. It has been going on for a while now and I think my body for some reason cannot tell that I am full or that I have eaten. I eat and then 20 or 30 minutes later I feel starving again. Not sure what to do with that but I am going back on my meal replacement shakes to help hopefully.

    @ginnaboots - Thank you. I did have a good time.
    @LindieMaeP - Thank you. I had a great time. I love your photos. I love the birds. I find birds fascinating. The raccoon is pretty cool too. You usually don't see them during the day.
    @Kurtize - Thank you. Those strawberry plants look great. I am sure you will have a lot of strawberries.
    @NovemberGail - Thank you. I love your photos.

    Well it is time to get me something to eat. I hope you all have a great day.

    @Tabatha_Cain - regarding what you described as being hungry all time and not feeling full, that happens to me when I've eating something containing corn syrup. It messes with my full regulator and I can eat the equivalent of 2-3 meals and should feel like vomiting but don't. Then about 2 hours later I'm looking for food again. I am driven to eat continually with cravings but not for something specific. I have to be diligent in reading labels. When I start being hungry when I know I should feel full, the first thing I do is check my food log and start checking the labels of what I've eaten. Usually I find something I've missed that has corn syrup.

    You might want to try eliminating that from your diet for awhile. Or at least log everything you eat and see if there is a pattern. Maybe it's another ingredient.

    For my sister, when she has restless cravings and is over eating, she looks for what she might be missing nutritionally. She thinks it's her body trying to get something it's not getting enough of.

    Good luck. Our bodies can be very complicated.

    @Tabatha_Cain with all that has been going in in your life the last few months with switching jobs, preparing for your upcoming wedding ,worrying about finances and everything else that life has thrown at you it could be emotional (stress) eating.

    Why you’re feeling hungry all the time
    From an article by the Cleveland Clinic
    Hunger typically sets in after two hours from the last time you’ve eaten a meal.

    “You’re actually feeling physical signs of hunger, so your stomach is growling, your energy is dropping,” says Zumpano. “You might also feel a little low on energy, maybe jittery.”

    On the other hand, emotional hunger doesn’t show any physical signs. This is when you might have cravings for certain foods. Zumpano estimates that about 90% of us engage in emotional eating.

    “If you’re saying, ‘I want chocolate. I want a bag of chips,’ that’s not hunger,” notes Zumpano. “Usually, you’re searching for food and food doesn’t satisfy because you’re feeding an emotional hunger.”


    If you are showing signs of hunger you may try adding more protein dispersed throughout the day to your diet.

    Good afternoon, got my hair cut this morning. Went to a new hair dresser, mine moved away. This was a different shop, they were very friendly, a very nice place. Tomorrow our daughter is coming over and bringing brisket tacos for lunch. Should be good, looking forward to it. Nothing else new. Have a great rest of the day.

    @Catwmncat good information, I read your post while doing my exercise on the cubii go - I can relate to being hungry all the time, but these days, I don't want chips !!! LOL I have a small bag of lays sitting on my printer - they've been there for over 3 days - yea in no hurry to eat them!
    @Kurtize interesting fav exercise - when you think about it jabberjawing or eating is the best way to exercise the muscles in your face next to smiling!!

    The last two days I've put in a lot of hours: 4.5 each day -- outside work and inside cleaning. I'm ready for bed. Have a good evening and a beautiful day.

    The photo is a white violet.

    Tomorrow's word is patience.

    Good Morning Airport Friends:

    I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Wednesday. I have to work both jobs today. I am hoping it will be a good day for that and it is not too terribly busy at either job. I will figure it out though. I have my clothes in the car for the second job and then I can go right in.

    @DNjoys - Thank you. I really think mine is just stress related and am hoping to will fix itself soon
    @Catwmncat - I am definitely going to give that a try. I need to slow down.
    @Kurtize - Did you get a good haircut? I hope you have a good visit with your daughter.
    @LindieMaeP - I love the sky photos. Very cool shade of pink
    @NovemberGail - I hope you get a good amount of rest.

    Well it is time to get some food. I hope you all have a great day.

    good afternoon everyone! it is a mostly cloudy day here today. my daughter says hi to all. both budgie birds are doing well and say cheep, cheep! i did my strength training workout earlier this morning and i really enjoyed it. i went for a walk a while ago and i feel great! i will be doing some dancing later on. in about an hour, i am going to a community garden info session for my building and for the next building. if there is a plot available, i would like to have one. i am a first time gardener, so i would pick something not too complicated to do. have a great day, everyone! take care and stay safe.

    Good Evening Everyone!

    I have been MIA for days. Sunday went out for dinner with family for my brother and brother-in-law's birthday. Not sure why we have started doing this but ok. Monday ran a couple errands and had lunch out. Tuesday went to TOPS and weighed in. Gained 3.25 lbs in 2 weeks. Not as bad as it could have been. My ankle is sore every day unless I am laying down. My shoulder hurts when I move it certain ways. Did get 2 loads of dishes washed. Tomorrow is the dentist for a filling I had to cancel last week and Friday is a phone consultation with my doctor about my shoulder results.

    WELL that's my walk treasure today - it's kinda neet - so I thought I would post it. It's been in the lower 70's and quite warm, worked up a sweat walking up the road to the Kingdom Hall I attend. I'll go tomorrow too but I think I'll not be wearing a jacket - just a light sweater IF that.
    @Tabatha_Cain thank you, I hope your day went well at both jobs, I think you said you were working them both today.
    @cormierannie I know nothing of gardening but others on here might and can give you pointers - I just like looking at them. Someone else does all the hard work.
    @CSEGUIN2 I hope your dr appt goes well and they can figure out the issue with your shoulder. It takes time for injuries to heal.
    @everyone have a great evening and have fun what ever you have planned!

    Good evening!

    Well, Tabatha, I didn't get as much rest as my body needed. I kind of shut down around 2:00 today. We'll see how the night goes.

    cormierannie: One plant that seems to be very grateful are Vincas. They like sun and mine reseeds every year. I just add new ones to the planter.

    I think I'll go for an evening stroll.

    Good Morning Airport Friends:

    I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is going to be a good day. I feel better today and not so stressed out. I am back at it and things are going ok. It will take some discipline but I know I can do it.

    @CSEGUIN2 - I hope the phone results help so you know how to properly deal with your shoulder. I hope the dentist goes well today. I am sorry your ankle is still bothering you.
    @LindieMaeP - That little gnome garden is so cute, Nice find on your walk. Yes I worked both jobs yesterday and I am doing it again today.
    @NovemberGail - I am sorry you did not get enough sleep. I am sure you will be able to catch up on your sleep this weekend. I hope anyways.

    Well it is time to get some food. I hope you all have a great day.

    Lindie-Your pictures are stunning. That shot of the sunset by the Detroit River is beautiful. I don't take pictures as much as I used to. I probably should get back into it though.

    Gail-Funny meme! I used to love to handle the numbers...I would spend hours in my office working. Now as I have gotten older, I do not like being down there at all. I wait until the last possible moment to do the work.

    Kurtize-Awww...the puppy is so cute. Hope your day went well.

    Tabatha-It could be stress for sure. How is your new job going?

    Good morning Patti. Have a wonderful day.


    Have a terrific day!

    Good afternoon everyone, another sunny day but the wind is cool which is good when you are in sun for about half an hour lol even then I sweat like crazy !! Thank you for the comments on the pictures - the gnome or fairy village was at a house that has the rock garden in front of it, I do like those kinds of rock fences and I think the owners have kids, I can't take credit as I had nothing to do with it, like nature, I just take the picture and it is someone else's creation.
    @ginnaboots, that sunset was amazing at the time too - and Boblo Ilsand in the back ground - which used to be an amusement park was very popular at one time, now I think it's a golf course or something like that. I'll see what else I have maybe from Point Pelee National Park or other parts of Essex County there in.
    @Tabatha_Cain hope your two jobs went well and you managed just fine, the birds were taken at a sanctuary in Windsor, but can't remember where. My Sister-in-Law and her daughter and my brother are birders so know where all these places are. They also know where they good eats are at too lol
    @everyone are you enjoying or did you enjoy your Thursday? I know I did !!

    Good Evening Everyone!

    For those that didn't catch it, last Monday night I sprained my ankle just before getting off the bus. Not sure how I hurt my shoulder but will find out tomorrow if anything major is wrong. My ankle is better today but will see tomorrow how it feels. I spent most of the morning resting my foot in bed. This afternoon had two fillings done, and went grocery shopping. Tomorrow going to my friends to celebrate Cinco de Mayo so probably won't be checking in.

    Tabatha, I am ready for the weekend. Tomorrow we're supposed to have rain and I will definitely sleep in if I hear the gentle pitter patter of raindrops. Glad to hear that you were ready to take charge of the day!

    Joyce, I love your quotes and Lindie, I love your photos.

    Ginna, math was one of my better subjects until we got to the number nine, rounding, division and graphs. It was downhill for the rest of my arithmetic education.

    Hi Patty, Annie and Macrat!!!

    Good Morning Airport Friends:

    I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Friday finally. I can wear my jeans and tshirt for work. I am really looking forward to that. I hope today goes well. Joe works late tonight and does not get out until 7. So We will be having a late dinner tonight. I am hoping things go well with him today. Things have been going well with me lately. I have my final wedding dress fitting this weekend.

    @ginnaboots - My new job is going great. I love my new job.
    @LindieMaeP - I love taking photos. I really do. I just don't seem to have the time to do my photography recently.
    @NovemberGail - I am not liking the idea of rain. We have had so much. I know we need more but geesh. I really hope today is Sunny.

    Well it is time to get some food. I hope you all have a great day

    Cseguin2- So glad your ankle is feeling better. Did you hurt your shoulder at the same time as you sprained your ankle? Hope it heals quickly for you.

    Gail-Math was my favorite subject too! I went up to Trigonometry and stopped. Weird how we don't use any of that in our lives today. I asked an engineer if he ever used the math he learned for his career choice and he said the computer does most every thing nowadays.

    Lindie-That tree is so pretty. Wow! We are getting a gradual warm up. I think it was 54 yesterday and will be in the 60's today and tomorrow. Not looking forward to it. Anything over 55 is not my cup of tea.

    Tabatha-Glad you like your job. Makes going to work that much more worth it.

    Have a great weekend everyone.
