    @katmary71 that's a whole lot of tests you have in the works! Have fun at your party tomorrow🥳

    @trooworld after your surgery and recovery, your husband will have to try to keep up to you!
    Ty is doing good with agility, when she is confident in the moves she is making she really turns on the turbo chargers!
    How lovely that your friend made you a needlepoint, was it of Daisy or Violet?
    I will be thinking about you tomorrow and sending all good thoughts and wishes your way!

    @TeresaW2024 I hope you and Joe had a great day out of the house, it is so nice to get out and about. I have never even heard of a vibration plate.

    Well Ty had another scare last night at agility. She was chased by a big dog, but he really just wanted to play. Problem is, as soon as she sees a big dog, she starts running away and even if they are friendly they are thinking "game on!" It took her longer to recover this time than it has before, probably because this is the fourth scare. I couldn't get her in the car to go to her class this morning, so I just left it. She hopped right in with Vannie when it was time for Vannie's class, so I just went with it. I was thinking I would just have her in a crate on the sidelines where she would be nice and safe. It was a relatively quiet class with smaller dogs and she wanted to take part. Shauna, the breeder, brought some of her little dogs for Ty to play with. After class, she got to play with three little Papillons, she wasn't sure at first, but had a good time when she settled in.
    I took my mom to get her new hearing aids yesterday. She keeps playing with them, then texting me and telling me that they're broken and would I please go over and fix them. Between Ty and my mom it was a very stressful day. I only have my grandchildren's presents, nobody else and I am having 20 people for Christmas supper. Today I planned on doing a lot of shopping and starting to organize my house for Christmas. I barely got anything done😔. Except breakfast, I ate takeout the rest of the day, not a good eating day at all.
    Tomorrow is a new day and hopefully I won't have any distractions.
    When I first started agility with Ty, she would be in her crate, waiting for her turn, screaming. I finally have her so she is quite quiet, now she just lays there and moans like she is giving birth 🤣. This is her waiting for her turn last night (before the scare) with her little nose pressed right up on the door😂

    Sorry gang I had my work party last night and was exhausted when I got home so I didn't post the weigh in update yesterday.

    @trooworld Thinking of you and hoping you're not in too much pain!

    @trooworld How long do you need to abstain from caffeine? You'll definitely need to take measurements after surgery. Thinking of you and praying you're in as little pain as possible! We definitely want to know how you are but if you need a little break we understand.

    @TeresaW2024 Thank you! I've followed Kalyn's Kitchen for quite awhile, I tend to forget about her but she does have great recipes. How exciting I loved using the vibration plate at the clinic, I think you'll love it! Even if you can only get Joe to stand holding on it's worth it but you can stand in different positions. One of the practitioners was concerned about my hardware and fusing so I just did it for short periods of time.

    @laurelfit57 Yikes you did have quite a challenging day I'm sorry to hear about poor Ty and your Mom. I love that photo of her! I probably would've eaten all the cookies in the house after that.

    Hi friends! The work party last night was fun, I was hurting a lot so I only stayed for a couple hours but helped set up. The farm manager and I talked Wednesday and I'd mentioned a farm party, we threw one together this morning and everyone contributed but it was 47 degrees and I'm ridiculously sensitive to cold as my body stinks at regulating temperature (had long johns, 32 degree undergarments, jeans, a sweatshirt, coat, and gloves and was still cold). I rescued a bunch of seedlings and am going to repot and drop them off at Take A Plant stands, hate seeing them thrown away and I'm sure some people would love to grow them. I'm going to get the rest of my gifts wrapped, Jasper's been playing in the tissue paper and I need to get everything put away and clean the house. Have a great Saturday!

    @trooworld get well soon!

    Question for the group:

    This might sound silly, but what do I have to do to lose weight?

    - Count calories and stick to a reasonable goal
    - Eat 3 meals a day
    - Get regular sleep
    - Drink water
    - Exercise regularly

    Is this it? I think I'm struggling because I have stress/anxiety/anger/trauma that I am not managing well. But I guess if I work on that then I can do the things on my list a little easier?

    I want to just eat when I'm hungry but then I don't know when to stop, and then I'm not necessarily eating because I'm hungry - there are all these repressed emotions in the mix.

    Thanks for reading my rant :smiley: Go Slimpossibles Go!
