Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are doing well this morning. Today is Friday and I have a 3 day weekend since I have Monday off for Memorial Day. Joe and I both have Monday off so we are excited to be able to sleep in 3 days in a row. We are definitely sleeping in. I am so darn tired this week. I did not want to get out of bed this week. It is crazy.
@Kurtize - Everywhere seems to be a lot busier due to the Holiday weekend. It is weird.
@LindieMaeP - Yes it is. Less than a month now. I don't know what I am going to get Joe for a gift. I am suppose to do a wedding gift and then his birthday is 3 days after the wedding. I love your flowers.
@CSEGUIN2 - Smoking is crazy hard to quit. I was losing weight when I quit smoking but I did have help from Chantix. It is a medication that helps you quit and I just had this crazy desire to quit smoking. Even now 4 years later I have no cravings for a cigarette and the smell of it makes me want to get sick. It smells so bad now.
@NovemberGail - I do need a lot of patience. I really do.
Well it is time to get some food. I hope you all have a wonderful day.

Good morning everyone, woohooo it's Friday and the weekend is here!! I hope you all enjoy your weekend and your day today goes well. I am having a comfortable day here, may go for a walk before the heat hits. Last night I got to go to FraserRiver Park and enjoy the planes and sunset, cottonwood shedding and just over all enjoyable and peaceful!! I got a lot of pictures LOL
@Tabatha_Cain sure hope the day goes fast for you so you can kick off your long weekend, I remember enjoying a holiday long weekend when I used to work 5 days a week!
@CSEGUIN2 quitting smoking is admirable and very difficult for some of us to do. I quit 20 years ago if not more - I forget the actual day - I used the patch and I followed my own program. When I was ready to downsize the patch I did it, and in the end, when I kept forgetting to put it on I knew i had it beat BUT there were temptations, friends who smoked, would offer, even though they knew I was trying to quit. I suppose they thought they ment well, but NOPE. I still occassionally get a whiff of a ciggarette and it smells like I want one but I hold firm and do not want to be a slave to that anymore. Plus the money I saved I got to spend on healthier things. Talk to your doctor about quit smoking aids to see what will work for you - my son used the inhaler but then he got addicted to that, like vaping - my brother vaped to quit but he still vapes - still has that motion of hand to mouth, so you will need to pay attention to when you smoke and why you smoke and what you are doing that causes you to want to smoke. You can do this!!
@NovemberGail your cottages must be really busy right now with the weather getting nicer and I hope Billie is behaving herself.
Have a wonderful day to all, and hello if I missed anyone!

Good Evening Everyone!
Thanks for all the support with kicking the smoking habit. I have not been to bad about cutting back. Friends offer and I just say no thanks. I stopped taking them with me when going to a friend's. I knew Hubby had some if I really wanted one. Today I may have had 5. Smokes are now gone and I am refusing to roll any.
Today has be another beautiful day. Went for shoulder physio this morning. Got a new exercise added. Will have to find my soccer ball so I can use it or come up with a different plan for the same movement. Also asked about wall push-ups. She believes I should be able to start doing them. We will see next week. Also got dishes caught up, laundry hung on the line, and got my stuff ready for tomorrow's car boot sale for our TOPS group. It's going to be an early morning. Played cards with Hubby, did some yard work and did a few step-ups to see how my ankle felt. Ankle is still doing great.2 -
Good evening, our high school is having it graduation tonight. It is beautiful evening. Hope you all had a great day. Nothing exciting here. Hugs and Blessings.

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Saturday and things are going well. I am excited for the weekend and I think things are going to be great this weekend. We are going to get the oil changed on the motorcycles and go for a ride. We are also going to go to the medicine store and get some meds that we need.
@LindieMaeP - I love the photos of all the planes. It is going to be weird not having to get up early on Monday. I am sure the weekend will go fast. I am going to love it though. It will be fun this weekend.
@CSEGUIN2 - So glad your ankle is doing great. Now we just have to get your shoulder there. Nice that they gave you another exercise for your shoulder. That means you are progressing and doing well with the therapy.
Well it is time to get some breakfast. I hope you all have a great day.

Good afternoon everyone, I hope you are all enjoying your Saturday. My weigh- in was not what I wanted but better then the start so I'll keep at it and tweek my food management and see what I can do. This morning my nephew got married at a park - my son and daughter attended. The bride had a long pink lacey dress and pink boquet - my nephew was in a suit and tie !!! Well that blew me away lol The weather cooperated and it did not rain !
@Tabatha_Cain sure hope your saturday is going well for you.
@jeanhickokhaley1 very very pretty, I would smile at them too actually I am. I learnt today there are over 400,000 flower species !!! some in the shape of animals so now I am gonna go check that out and see what and where they are found !
@everyone have a safe and happy evening !!3 -
Tonight I am not feeling quite as tired after putting in a full day outside. The photos are two of the day's highlights. As I was getting ready to cut wild rosebushes out of a cedar, a large bird flew out. I thought it was a hawk until I pulled back the rosebush.
Eleven eggs greeted me and I didn't touch the bush (nor the poison ivy protecting the eggs).
Tabatha, maybe you can have a contest for gift ideas for your husband-to-be. What came to mind was something for the motorcycle. I bet you all have a good time riding.
Lindie, the cottages are very busy right now. I'm so glad that folks give themselves the gift of a quiet for a few days. (Can you imagine a garden with each variety of flower species?). Great photos again!
Jean, the petunias are gorgeous.
Tomorrow's word is FAITH.

@NovemberGail ... I'm not a expert, but kind of looks like Mallard Eggs. Did you see the bird afterwards?

I hope you are all having a good morning. Today is going to be a great day. I think things are good today. Yesterday was an amazing day. Joe and I went and picked up my finished wedding dress and it fits amazing. Then we went and got the stuff to do the oil change on the motorcycle. We went back to his parents and did the oil change and then jumped on the bike and went from Otsegp, MI to Holland, Mi where we ate dinner and then went to Holland State Park and walked out on the peer. We had such an great time. It was fun and we are super sore from the long drive in the bike. We probably should have taken a shorter trip on our first ride of the season.
@LindieMaeP - It sounds like a wonderful wedding. I bet it was beautiful. My Saturday went amazing. It was probably aside from getting engaged the best day of the last year. It was so magical and special.
@NovemberGail - That is funny that you said that about the motorcycle. We actually just did a whole bunch with the bike yesterday. Then went for a long drive. Definitely feeling it today.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful day.

Good Evening Everyone!
Loving all the pictures! Didn't make it in yesterday as my phone decided to update everything and it took all night.
Yesterday was along day. We had a great car boot sale and just visiting with each other which we don't always get to do before meetings. I really got to know my fellow TOPS members better. When I got home I was sooooo tired. Just chilled all afternoon and evening.
Today I went to Church. After I got home I got ready to go for a very long walk to my storage unit. Thursday night there had been a fire in the building and I had to go check my unit. Everything seems to be in good condition. Only one box got a little damp on the bottom. Most stuff was in bins. But will have to go back once the building doesn't smell like smoke to see what has to be thrown out. I am extremely grateful that my ac unit seems to be fine as well. But need to get it home so we can clean and use it. This afternoon I worked in the flower bed.1 -
Good afternoon/evening folks, it's a warm day here with the sun shining and the clouds gone - nice cool breeze blowing too. But not in my room lol - wish !! Now I will put the fan on. Rotisary chicken for dinner from Costco - wanted hotdog but was not getting in that lineup!! Spent too much at Costco but got things I can't get elsewhere. Plus membership had to be renewed! Found the above flowers on my way to the Kingdom Hall this morning - was a nice surprise - some I found on the walk home. There was a lot of construction traffic on the bus route so I just walked the side streets home. Was in the shade for most of it. Phewww too cause sun and I do not get along, I am way too fair !!
@Tabatha_Cain that is a lovely photo of you and Joe - oh the waves in the background are perfect !! I saw the pictures of the wedding it was very very cool - and about 15 people were there, so very small venue as well. The park setting was beautiful!
@pattie241 hello to you as well, how are you doing ?
@Kurtize hope you are enjoying your Sunday!
@NovemberGail I am sure all of us will be getting busy once summer rolls around with vacations, places to go, people to see, things to do!!
Have a wonderful evening everyone !!

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well. Today is going to be another great day. I am excited. We are going to go up to Joe's parents as today is their wedding anniversary. Then we are going to go on another motorcycle ride. We are not going to go super far though. We will just put some stuff in a backpack and ride to a nice park and have a picnic and spend some time together again today. Yesterday we paid tribute to Joe's wife who passed when his kids were little and today is time to celebrate Joe for her service in the army. He doesn't think it was a big deal, but I feel like no matter the job he was there and he helped in some small way.
@CSEGUIN2 - Hope most your stuff is ok. I hope the smoke did not damage too much. With the clothing I think there is a trick you can do to get smoke out of your clothes. So look into that before you just throw stuff away.
@LindieMaeP - That day was a great day. I love your flowers. When we were at Joe's Parents we found photos of Joe and I in high school. We went to 2 dances together. We looked so young.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful day.

good morning everyone! it is a beautiful sunny day here today. my daughter says hi to all. both budgie birds are doing well and say cheep, cheep! both elevators are not working at my building this morning, so that means an extra workout for me taking the stairs down five flights and then up five flights. i hope that they get it fixed before the end of the day today. i did my strength training workout earlier this morning and i really enjoyed it. i got in a walk a while ago and i feel great! i will be doing some dancing later on. later in the afternoon, around 3:30pm, i will be watching a movie called Iron Man in the rec room in my building. food and refreshments will be provided. there will be a raffle draw to win a prize. have a great day, everyone! take care and stay safe.1

Today has been a complete day of rest, it has been humid, short thunder storm, 85 degrees. Hope you are all having a great day. Hugs and blessings.

Good Evening Everyone!
I am definitely going to research what and how I can salvage what's in there if smoke did damage it. I know there was no clothes but I do have fabric and yarn among other things.
Today was a great day! Got a little cleaning done found another fan in the bedroom I didn't even know we had. Lucky me as the one in the bedroom stopped working and couldn't get it apart to try and fix it. Went for my walk along the river and then to and from the grocery store. Did my shoulder physio the best I could with out finding my ball for my new exercise. Played cards with Hubby and did a little yard work. Just to hot in the sun. Later I will water my plants before it gets to dark. Tomorrow is rest, weigh and TOPS day. Also have to take Son to orthodontist in the afternoon to get the rest of his hardware for the next phase.
So happy with how well my irises are doing this year.

Good evening everyone, just a quickie post as I am very tired from not sleeping well last night, happens from time to time, feel like a tossed salad by the time morning comes !! The picture above is a small bird, not sure what kind and think it was in distress - it's beek was open and it did not flutter away when I went up to it very close but when I got too close at one point it went into the green bush ...
@Tabatha_Cain - oh those pictures are beautiful !!! Boy you all have changed some what eh - what kind of bike does Joe have ?
@CSEGUIN2 sure hope you don't have any damage - your flowers are beautiful!!
@NovemberGail coming soon a garden with over 400,000 flower species - called planet earth - the Bible tells me so and I trust that !! I just hadda say that lol.
Have a good evening all !!

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is going to be a good day. We are going to be super busy at work. I am sure. We have a lot of work to catch up on. I am so excited for it. I had a wonderful weekend. We went on another trip on the motorcycle this weekend. Here are photos of what we did. It was great. We had so much fun. We went to Saugatuck Harbor Nature Area. Another beach location.
@cormierannie - I hope you enjoy the movie. I heard it was really good. I wonder if it isn't the one with Robert Downey Jr. That one has been out for a long time and it is a really good movie. Either way enjoy the movie.
@Kurtize - It was 88 outside yesterday. We hit the motorcycle again yesterday.
@CSEGUIN2 - Glad you were able to still do your physio. That is pretty good without your ball. Love your iris. I hope you are able to find something to get the smoke out of your stuff. I would also reach out to some restoration services and see if they recommend any products. We have like ServePro or Service Master here in Michigan so something like that might be able to get you in the right direction.
Well it is time to get some food. I hope you all have a great day.
