@Patti241 WTG on the mowing!! I adore the smell of cut grass and it's great exercise.
@Kurtize, I went out for a walk this AM just because it makes it happy. Our neighborhood is a mix of businesses and residents. It's fun to see the new businesses in the area!!
@Aalley5 glad it wasn't covid, but so sorry you felt/feel lousy!! Please take care. My steps and exercise are down this week, I am just not up to par, but that's okay it helps the other teams!! LOLOL
@Tabatha_Cain thanks for the hints to help Oscar!! He will not always go to them for treats, but there are a few people he does. Happy to hear you are glad to be back with AAA!!! I hope it goes very well for you!! Yes, its Cesar who's very good. Once the pup realizes YOU are the TOP Dawg (Cesar works so much on helping owners with that!)you'll be fine. If I recall one thing I saw every time the pup or dog does that give them a chew toy, play with them with the toy, but if they bite/nip at a human be stern as you give them the chew toy. They aim to please most of the time. Labs are so sweet!! He is just a puppy but best to get it under control quickly as you well know.1 -
Diane: The day was okay.
Good morning everyone1 -
I'm feeling better today and had a dentist appointment. New owner! I loved my hygienist! She was great!
Then went shopping I loaded up on veggies. Instead of buying a pre-made salad I bought a bunch of veggies for a salad. The fixins should last a while. I made a huge salad with tomatoes, cucs, spring mix, pepper, zucchini, & carrot. I chopped it all up small and grated the carrots. I could eat it for two meals! tonight I'm adding a turkey burger and goat cheese. No bread.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - Yes, I'm thankful. and happy I feel better, even though the cold sores are not gone. The Dentist visit didn't seem to bother it much, which is good.
@Tabatha_Cain - It's good you are back working and able to help some folks out that are new too.
Have a great evening!0 -

@Patti241, WOOHOO on an okay day!! Nice!
@Aalley5, So glad the dentist appointment went well! It sure does help when the cleaning is done in a way we are happy we went!! Also good you are feeling better!! GREAT JOB on the freggies!! Mine are weak today, I had actually FORGOTTEN when I was out today!! Originally when we left and knew where we were eating, I had picked a 2 serving meal, but when we got there we heard "Oh we change around the menu according to the season" and they did not have what we wanted. Its quite expensive which we will pay easily for the dish we want, but nahhh on the "selections" they had today. We found a cute deli that is also gourmet, but WORTH IT!!
@Kurtize, Hope your day was as brilliant as you are!! Glad you are also feeling better.0 -
Diane: Yeah it was okay. Starting okay for this morning1
-
I'm feeling good today but have two cold soars GRRR! I did get all my steps yesterday! Woohoo for that!
I'm eating lots of veggies, I hope I can incorporate some broccoli and cauliflower soon. On chemo raw veggies and high gas producing veggies were not tolerable. Even now, some don't agree with me. The salads seem to be going okay, time will tell.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - Don't forget your veggies! I had to make a point to stop and pick mine up. lol
@Kurtize - Thank you!0 -

@Tabatha_Cain , Hope Thursday went extraordinary!! MISSED Ya today!! Awww how's Chloe? Any progress?
@Patti241, did the day stay okay? I HOPE SO!
@Aalley5, PURDY GOOD MORNING!!! WOOHOO on the freggies!! Today I got in 5, as I sit here sipping on a most wonderful smoothie!! It has a cup of frozen berries (This one is triple berries of blackberries, blueberries and raspberries) with a cup of milk (you can save calories and do a 1/2 c of milk (1% or almond is fine, actually almond is pretty neat!) with a 1/2 c of water and a small container of French Vanilla Bean yogurt (Vanilla Bean yummy also) throw into what ever type of blender you have until smooth (I use Nutra bullet) ENJOY!!
@Kurtize ,Ahhh yes Joyce and I'll throw in for many "If I need help, it's okay to reach out and say so."1 -
Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Friday. Yesterday we were working out a new schedule and I am sorry I missed posting. We have decided to start taking Chloe for walks 2-3 times a day depending on the weather. So yesterday we started out with 2 walks. One in the morning and one in the evening. She did really well on her first walk and was interested in all the smells. Which was great. By the end of the walk she was panting and having to lay down for a few seconds. The second walk we introduced the Gentle Leader. Which she did not like at all. It basically teaches her that she has to stay in a certain area next to me or her head is pulled down gently. Which she obviously fought and did not like. So the walk last night was getting her introduced to that. We will be going on another walk this morning with the gentle leader. I think she did a lot better with her aggression yesterday. Definitely not as aggressive with some of that energy worked out of her. Joe and I reported definitely a less aggressive attitude yesterday after walking her 2 times for the day. Which is good. This morning she even seems a bit more docile. Although she did steal Joe's Croc when he took his shoe off to step on the scale this morning. That is cute and we giggle sometimes, but do know we need to stop that behavior. We are working on it. We don't want her chewing up shoes. That is an expensive habit to let her get a hold of.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - I am so glad to be back at work and working from home. I cannot believe I finally after 10 years got a work from home position. I don't think I will ever leave this position. I love it already and have not even started doing it yet. Chloe is doing a decent amount better after 2 walks yesterday. So we are rinsing and repeating today for those walks. It is going to be a good day. I do hope she takes a bit better to the gentle leader this morning.
@aalley5 - Yes I do love being able to help people. Even if it is just in training. That sounds like a good idea for a salad. You might get more servings if you are making your own mix.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Friday.

@Tabatha_Cain , OH COOL on Chloe doing a little better with the Gentle Lead. It'll teach her very well and it doesn't hurt her, just reminds her YOU and JOE ARE THE BIG DOGS!! WOOF!! WOOF!! Happy you are enjoying the at home work!! I'd probably LOLOL Stay in my jammies!!
@Patti241 ,, glad the day was okay. Are you all also getting all the smoke from the fires? We were in the yellow and almost orange. On Weds I walked a half a block with the smoke in the air (I was even on the ocean where there was a slight breeze!) and had to slow down extremely so. I could not catch my breath!!
@Kurtize, hows the eye doing? How are they both doing? Are you done with the drops in the first eye? I think I was after 2 weeks or was it 3?0 -
Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is a busy day. I need to get laundry done and I need to get the house clean. Chloe is doing a lot better with the walks. Although she is really struggling using the gentle leader. We spend more time fighting her on wearing it and walking then she does actually walking. It is weird. We will figure it out though I am sure. Last night one of my other dogs ended up getting into Chloe's puppy teething rings which are a treat she can eat. Well my older dog who weighs 10.8 pounds and is a mini dachshund ate 4 of those. She ended up throwing up overnight all over my couch. Silly dog. She does that every time she gets a hold of treats. The weird thing is they were in a box on a table that was definitely taller than she was by 2 of her. So she had to have had an accomplice. I am thinking one of the cats wanted to lay on the table so they pushed the box onto the floor. Of course my dog is totally not going to eat treats (LOL) So now this morning she is not interested in her food. She will be alright though.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - I am definitely hoping to teach Chloe that Joe and I are in charge. So far for the most part it is going pretty well I think. I cannot stay in my jammies since I am on camera. While in training they require that you be on camera and respond to questions by speaking rather than typing. So it is a little different. Once I get into actual working I could probably get away with Pajama's, but you have already built a habit to get dressed for work, so why change that.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Saturday.

Diane: We are not getting any of the smoke.0

@Tabatha_Cain , LOLOL I AM SO SORRY but I DID LAUGH!!! I can easily picture the cat doing that!! They are such stinkers!! LOLOLOL!!! Eventually Chloe will adjust to the gentle lead, no doubt there are many videos on how to help her do so. I'd be tempted to stay in PJs when off camera, but studies prove and I AGREE when we dress up we present ourselves more professionally. I AM BIG ON THAT!
@Patti241 that's GOOD!!! On my pictures yesterday you can tell. The haze is from the smoke.

@Patti241 HI!! What did you do today? I went to a meeting in the AM (I do every Sunday) after I met with my GD and the 2 GGS!! LOL Miniature Golf!! I hadn't been in 13 years!! We all did well! It was an 18 hole course (OH MY parts of it was STEEP! My breathing was horrid). But I had fun even if breathing was quite difficult and I had to sit down several times it was so WORTH THE FUN I HAD!!
We also stopped at my FAVORITE beach pizza place!! I ate a slice of pepperoni pizza and we split the medium fries between the 4 of us. GREAT TIME!
@Kurtize, GOOD DAY Joyce!! NEW WEEK, NEW CHANCES AND NEW CHOICES!! Woohoo!! Hope you feel bettah!

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is back at work and I am feeling pretty well this morning. I am a bit tired, but I think I will be alright. Things are going well. Joe and I were in person at church yesterday, and we will be in person at church next weekend as well.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - Chloe is doing great on the gentle leader. I think she figured it out yesterday. The box recommended how to slowly work her into it. That is awesome that you got time with your family. I am sure they had an amazing time.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Monday.

Diane: Yesterday I just stayed at home and did some exercises. Today I am hoping to go to the gym.1

Good Morning Airport Friends:
I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Tuesday and I am thinking it is going to be a great day. I am hoping that I will learn some more things in regards to the call center stuff today. I really did learn a few things yesterday that I did not have to worry about when I worked in the office. So that is awesome and makes me feel good about the position.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - Work has been going great. Chloe is ok with the gentle leader just being on her face, but if she takes off and it corrects her she kinda flips out a bit. So I know she will eventually get it. So I have to ask you about your Fibro. So all this week I feel like I have rug burn or something like that all over my back and arms. They are so sensitive to the touch. How do you get that to stop? It has been going on for a week now. I tried calling the doctor, but I literally keep getting sent to their office voicemail.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Tuesday.

Diane: The gym was great. I did the recumbent bike. Will go again probably tommorrow morning1

got another postcard from my North Coast 500 walk.
Eye dr very pleased with healing. It is another hot one in last 1/2 hour went from 95 to 101.
Wishing you all a great day.

@Tabatha_Cain . Glad work is going well!! Same with Chloe, I have flexeril for break through pain, but I am so careful with them, my Dr gives me 30 a year (if I need more I can say so,) but she knows I'll do anything else first to lessen the pain. Though it HURTS to stretch I'll do it anyways. Doing light yoga helps the most with (Chair stretches/Chair yoga) with reducing the pain.
@Patti241, I saw a woman today on a recumbent 3 wheel bike today it was so COOL!! She was on the sidewalk peddling easily away.
@Kurtize, WOOHOO on the postcard!! WTG!!! AWESOME on the eyes!! Nice!!! YO though on the heat!! Is that why you want to move? May I suggest MAINE??? Its pretty and pretty expensive to live here, because it rarely gets over 90, mostly in the summer 80s to mid 80s, right now we are in general the high 70s, but LOLOL WEIRDLY at the moment some 60s are the HIGH for the day. I AM FINE WITH THAT!!!

I hope you are all doing well this morning. Today is Wednesday and it is going to be a great day. I am going to a walk-in at my doctors office just to get it noted that I am having a flare up from my Fibromyalgia. That may help with things. I am not sure though. I really hope I will be able to get back home quickly to get to work by 9. I don't think the pay is as bad today, however I am still in PJ's which are really soft. So we will see. I think the muscle relaxer did really help.
@Kurtize - Oh Wow. It was blown up. That would be awesome to see what is left of the castle. Awesome that the eye doctor loves the healing you have done. That is almost too hot for me at 101.
@Dianedoessmiles1 - I did take a muscle relaxer yesterday and am feeling a bit better today. I so struggle with yoga. I just cannot do it. I get so frustrated that it goes so slow.
Well I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday.
