    Good afternoon seniors

    WOW the message board is full and running. I am easy about changes so what ever anyone wants is fine with me, hope I don't get lost looking for it. Make it easy to get to.

    So my day today:
    It is 29 degrees outside and snow on the ground., so I made cr of wheat for breakfast and it sure tasted good.

    We met our son this morning for coffee and had a nice visit. His divorce stuff is looking better, they are making boundries at this time. ( She goes through all his stuff and phone if he is not home when she gets their to visit the kids, so he talked to her about it).

    Then all 3 of us went for a walk at the mall, and I didn't buy anything at the Mall.

    Then we went to Wal Mart to pick up phone cards for DH and grandsons for Christmas.

    Came home and had soup and sandwich for lunch and a piece of pumpkin brd with pb on it, and green tea made in my new Kureig coffee pot.

    By the way I finished my large quilt and have to get it to the quilters. So I am going to start some small projects.

    Have a wonderful day.

  • Hi Everyone!

    Been scrambling for work. Staying busy. I am starting to feel a little better (less pain) from the sciatic issue. Not great but better. I may try a light workout in a day or two.

    Day and I finished up our Christmas shopping last weekend. It is going to be a quiet holiday for us. I can't believe how much I miss training. I have been bored to death, even to the point that shopping was fun! If I ever post that again just delete me!

    The weather has been crappy! Cold and rain with some snow last night and today. YUCK! Not too much else to report on today. Joe the Cat gave me a hairball this morning. So nice to wake up to!

    Sandy I like your pics! Still looking good girl!

    Marie, glad to be hearing from you! You and I have been on here a long time! Missed ya!

    Jeffrey
  • Chris, that pumpkin bread would hit the spot, with cream cheese! So glad for your son that things are improving.
    Becky it is still open, not a private,permission type of group. I like it much better coz I can see the birthday,recipe and other threads at a glance.

    Marie, hope you will read and post on the group thread as well.

    Jeffrey, be careful, you may just flare up again if you start back too soon,maybe just some stretching?

    BTW- for anyone reading this thread, there is a new Senior Golden Sneakers GROUP, it is easy to find, click on groups, then scroll down to the group you want and click on it, then click join, and youre in! Hope to see you there

    Both are fine for me too.

    Maddie - I don't know what's going on with me, so I certainly can excuse you. LOL

    Marie - I wondered if you had snow. I saw a picture in the paper this am of snow in Texas. I thought of you. Hope it warms up for you.

    Have a great evening.

    Marie - sure is warmer than here. Brrrr. I can't believe you got your first hard freeze!!!!!

    My dh and I were out shopping yesterday. With all the little ones in our family it is quite a chore.

    Happy Wednesday!! :bigsmile: The sun is shining and it looks so beautiful outside. My cleaning girl is coming today which is good since my step daughter is coming in from California Friday and staying until Sunday night. :ohwell: My 16 year old granddaughter has her first competition with Poms on Sunday which I will probably have to miss since I will have to drive my step daughter to the airport. I should be able to go for her first number but the second isn't until late afternoon as are the awards. My granddaughter understands but I still had to vent about it. :grumble:

    I really hope to get those cards done today otherwise Christmas will be over before I get them mailed.:laugh: My MRI went well yesterday, loudest MRI I have ever taken but at least it is done. I go see the back doctor on Thursday to find out the results. My husband results should be at the doctors by the end of the week. I am not anticipating any problems but do hope they can fix this sciatic pain that I have had for a year. Once that is fixed I will think about knee replacement. And yes Marie, Babe can finally drive but still cant walk Daisy for another two weeks.

    I do like the pet thread that Barbie started, who doesn't like to hear about everyone's "children"? :laugh: I prefer to do my chit chat on this thread though because most of you know me better here and I can talk about whatever. :tongue:

    Have a great day!!

    Jeri thanks for sropping in again.

    You never can tell aboutTexas weather.
    Let me know when you post a those wonderful Pictures so I can drop
    by the group and have a look But hope you will continue to post them here
    I think the group is a good thing but I don't think it is my cup of tea .....too impersonel.So I will just stay here

    sound like you have a wonderful family and a large one at that.
    Have a wonderful time with all of them decoating you house. I love your snow people. Your daughter has a really nice family too.

    I will post a picture of My husband homemade Christmas yard art when he sets it up

    Happy Wednesday to you Sandy Thanks Sandy. look like you are going to be busy. Good luck to Brianna , I guess it was Brianna you were talking about. Yes the pet Thread is good.ideal on the group. Alice will be out Sunday and I am going to learn how to post on flicker.

    I don't see why we can't all be friends and post on each of the sites. I will drop in ocaually to see what is new. It has lots of Advantage like When you and Connie explain about the computer to us old seniors we can go right to the site. I think we can work together I think I will stop posting on the home page.

    I had a nice breakfast of Turkey sausage and 2 eggs this morning.

    So you will continue to be our hostess here I sure hope so.

    Hi GiGi So great to hear from you. Sounds like a wonderful Christmas ahead for you.
    Welcome back

    the group is a good thing you can find what you are looking for for much easier.

    But I am using the Sneakers as my home base Go the group to look up stuff.


    Sandy I went to your Birthdays thread on the group and added my user name and where I am from. Hope I did not mess things up . If there is good way to add on let me know. I know that Dee added on her Birthday and it didn't llok like mine did. And Barbie
    and I used to change our weight on a thread we once belong too. But do not remember how we did it.

    I am busy sewing this morning


    Gayla Enjoy your trip Hope you made it to the airport in time. Thats was mighty earlier. Take care of that foot.:heart::heart: :he

    Let me get this straight. This is a "thread" that anyone can post in? But, to post in a "group" one must be a member? Is this what everyone else is thinking? If this is so than to have a group with the same name would not be a different thread or something that we are competition with. From what I have gathered...a thread is open to anyone. I have been receiving invitations to "join" groups. Someone please clarify this for us.

    The Senior Golden Sneakers Group has a chit chat thread.

    all we would have to do is go the group and join (if you haven't already) and post on the Chit Chat Thread. Then that thread would show up under "My Topics"

    Once you join the group, you can click on "Groups" and find the Senior golden Sneakers group and post or read all the threads.

    If we all did that, then in just a few days, we'd all be having the same great conversations within the group and it would feel just like this thread.


    If you got an invitation to join, please join us.......if you haven't gotten an invitation, just say so on this thread and I'll send you an invitation.:bigsmile: :heart:

    If you follow us here it will be the same posts as you are used to, but if you want to add a topic of your own under the groups then feel free to do so. Maybe health issues want to be discussed, maybe diabetes subjects, knee issues, maybe sex (just kidding).
    Give it a try and let me know what you think?

    Hi to everyone

    Another lovely day here - a friend just rang me to go for a walk so we did that for 45 mins and now I'm going to make a chicken curry and then off to the beach to stay in the caravan for the night.....an absolute beachfront site so I will be able to get another walk in today hopefully - nothing nicer than feeling the sand between your toes.

    We were taken out for dinner last night to a small country hotel which was lovely but how do you make healthy choices when everything came with chips...I left half of mine on the plate so it wasn't too bad, and the steak was delicious....the 1st of many Xmas functions to attend so I just hope I can be strong.

    Hope everyone has/had a pleasant day

    AWWWW Sandy, you were just joking??? I was looking forward to discussing sex.:bigsmile:

    Judz, I can't imagne leaving any chips on my plate. But then, I was raised to clean my plate. Why did our parents do that to us? We aren't doing away with this thread, are we?

  • Good Afternoon Everyone!

    Working away today. Not much else going on. It is cold here again. Last night I did get my first light workout in in almost 3 months. I got a 5 mile run in and felt pretty good at then end. The right leg was weak but I recovered fast. I am going to do my yoga workout tonight.

    We are going to see the mothers this weekend. Not sure what day yet, but probably Saturday. We are supposed to get a couple inches of snow tonight. Just enough to make a mess of things. I think Sunday we will finish up the Christmas shopping.

    Starting to look at races for next year. I will probably do the Indianapolis "Tri-Indy" in August and I am thinkng of do doing the Chicago Urbanathalon. I will still need to add about 6 more to the mix.

    Thats about it for now!

    Everyone have a great day!

    Well, except for almost forgetting binoculars, and sunhats, we are about ready to zip up our bags, 1 apiece and a tote each. Since there will be 3 formal dinners, we did OK packing, and I'm hoping my case will close!

    Ate at Morton's Steak House for dinner last night; glad we were guests, or we'd have had to wash dishes, but what delectible dishes!

    I'll try to read this site every day til we sail. but can't promise to post as my house has been sadly neglected and I must catch up or the sugar ants will take ove while we're gone!

    Y'all keep up the good work, and did Gigi ever show up? Hope all's well with her and her Mom.
