    Rita--How scary. Pray he is safe and stays that way.
    Lanette--HUGS! I also find it hard to ask for help. Glad you have friends to help when needed. I agree with Barbie it is easier to give then receive. It does each of us good to be the receiving person sometimes. Keeps us humble and is a Blessing to the giver. So glad your knee was not hurt worse. Think getting it elevated and ice right away helped.
    Tracey--It was a good weekend and we did go on our motorcycle ride Sunday. I think the weekend I was ill I picked up from DH.
    Well I have hired a lady. She can't start until July 24th and we did go around about the pay. She wanted more than any of my other staff are getting and I said no, this is what it pays. I agree interviewing is hard and you still don't know about the person until they start working. I just pray she learns fast and is a team player.So I do see the light at the end of the tunnel.
    Annie--Reminded me of the time our smoke alarm had a low battery. Only I didn't know that and it was chirping and I thought it was a cricket in the house. So DS and I used a whole can of spray trying to find the cricket and moved everything around. DH came home and said it was the battery and changed it. Now when I hear that sound the first thing I check is smoke alarms.
    Have a staff meeting this afternoon. Our fiscal year ends Friday and they want us to have reports done by then. I think once this meeting is done and notes typed up I will be ready to start the new year.
    Blessings, Vicki GRAND ISLAND, NE <3

    Lisa ... intermittent fasting most definitely has an element of "damage control!" :D

    Rita ... hugs ...

    Rosemarie ... everyone is welcome on MFP regardless of the health regimen they follow and you're always, most definitely welcome on this thread!

    Been going in the pool. Bad news: our ceramics place is closing. The gal who runs it asked for a $3/hour raise. They didn’t even counter with something like “well, we’ll give you $1 this year and $1 next year”. So she found another job. See, she recently got divorced and no longer has the two incomes. So I’ll probably finish my gecko, she’s letting Vince bring home paints so he can finish his tree stump next week when they’re closed for the holiday, I’ll pick up my gecko on Monday and he’ll pick up his tree stump on Wednesday. Then it’ll be closed. I hope they find someone, but I’m not holding my breath.

    Tracey – I see Ember has a tough job! Of course he/she has to go to sleep!

    Lisa – wow! That’s fantastic that you’re paying the house off

    Heather – how wonderful of you and Johnny! You both are angels, indeed

    Vince bent down to get a measuring tape and felt a twinge in his back. As you can imagine, he’s concerned so he won’t go to ceramics tonight, I’ll go and get his tree stump and the paint

    Claire – thanks for no longer lurking! Welcome! Of course you can join! Welcome to the boredom eating club (of which I’m president). Many people on here don’t do the friend thing, we interact on this thread.

    Pip – what a dreamer you are! Thinking that you’ll have enough blanket for you and Bette just because you got a king size! I don’t know…….. lol

    Vicki – I’m glad to hear you hired someone.

    Off to dinner and then ceramics.

    Oh so glad the epley maneuver worked for you. I notice my neck pain goes away, as well as my headaches. I can tell when it comes on though as I get a twinge in my neck. Its only at night that my vertigo shows, and I use the swirls as a sleep aide.😂😂
    Its only when I turn from side to side at night, so I appreciate that the evil vertigo gods don't bless me with it during the day.

    That's when mine still shows up, too! When I go from sitting up to laying down in the bed, I have to clutch the sheets on both sides because the whirlies make me feel as if I'm going to fall off. The days aren't nearly as bad now I've done the maneuver, but I can still feel it when I look up too quickly and try to focus on something above my head. Which makes grocery shopping a quite interesting procedure, since I'm 5'2" and can barely stand to look at the shelves that are higher than that.

    There's certainly a specific tilt to the head that does it! I tend to sit up totally, then turn and nestle into the covers. If I just roll over it triggers a swirl.

    Update from Destiny's mom:
    We are not saying anything to des all she thinks is that the blood she is coughing up is from her throat or her nose bleeding down her throat . Which could be what is actually happening they really do. Not know
    So today was fairly a good day for her. She got up and was in less pain than the day before. But then tonight we got some shocking and devastating news today. Destiny has been coughing up blood clots. was just told that she could start bleeding a lot to where they can’t control it and could pass away. It could happen tonight, weeks or months or not at all( hopefully the not at all)

    I'm so sorry. I wish they would tell her, but that is definitely a parental decision. What an unthinkable situation.

    Heather: What a great outfit!

    Flea: The family looks like they are having a good time in Belize!

    Debbie: I am sorry about the news about Destiny.

    Well I started doing the point system that WW uses. Tues and Wed are my tough days because I go to the Animal Rescue and work pretty hard and don't want to get hungry. I usually go to Starbucks and get a cheese danish so I will have a sugar boost. This is 12 points out of the 23 points I am alloted. I will have to begin to plan the rest of my Tues and Wed meals with this in mind.

    I did the Leslie Sansone video that is on u-tube. I read about Leslie on the wickipedia. A couple of years ago without explanation she stopped making videos and participating in social media. People are wondering if she retired or has family issues or is not well. No explanation has been given.

    Best,
    Mary MacNeil

    They think that when they tell her, she will shut down and not try to enjoy what ever time she has left.

    I understand. They certainly know what is best for her. Such difficult decisions.
