Hi All,
Very excited about going to see Kris Kristofferson and Merle Haggard in concert tonight! Saw them in concert together a few years back and even though they're getting up there (aren't we all :ohwell: ) they've still got it!
Wiggywig-That's great about your dogs wheels-hope it helps!
To all the other dog people on here, I too talk to my dogs all the time! After my boot comes off after my foot surgery (which I'm getting nervous abt), going to volunteer at my local animal shelter to help with cat socialization and adoption days. Should be fun!
Congrats to everyone for all the moving and shaking :happy:
Drink up:drinker:

:drinker: Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers, they are very much appreciated.
The hospital had an emergency admission to the ICU and there weren't any beds available so because Matthew was doing so well they moved him to the step down unit this morning. He still has a drainage tube in his chest, a catheter and an IV hooked up. :huh: He did have an appetite this afternoon and ate a little scrambled eggs and toast. I am going down to the exercise room and do some time on the treadmill. Everyone have a great evening, Rose 
Love ((((HUGS)))) and Prayers

Welcome, Linda! This is a great encouraging, supportive group! I'm glad you've joined. Having done the "yo-yo" routine several times, I can tell you DO NOT slack off on watching what you eat and exercising! Five years ago I lost 60 pounds. Looked great!!! But I got sloppy and put 95% of it back on...and here I am, five years older and starting all over again! So my caution would be "do not let yourself get sloppy about what you eat and do." Keep chatting...we are here and ready to help!
Just got back from a bike ride that was, well, "perspective altering." Yeah, I rode with my 23-year-old son who is home on leave from the Air force and rarin' to get out on the bikes and ride! Yikes! He definitely dumbed his ride down for me, but it was fun to get out together. We rode 45 minutes, about 10 miles with a couple quick water breaks. Would have gone longer but it was getting dark and his light needs new batteries.
This time last week I was pretty upset...We'd traveled for a week, I'd been oh-so-careful about tracking everything I ate and staying within my calorie limit, swam and/or rode a stationery bike all but one night of our trip...came home and found I'd GAINED half a pound! Not fair! Happy to report that I've dropped about 5 pounds since. I think the problem was lack of activity...we drove over 2000 miles...a lot of sitting in the car and knitting, which, while fun and interesting, is not exactly gonna melt the pounds off!0 -
Its nice to hear from women my age that have the same struggles. I sometimes feel like the scale hates me and won't go down at all. But it's not moving up, so I guess that's good.0

Rough day today. My husband woke me to let me know that he was numb on his left side and arm. Doctor has ordered an MRI for the brain tomorrow. It could be the cancer has made into his brain now. The new drug that he is taking could be the cause as well. Neither are good options.:brokenheart:
So we travel in the morning to the hospital where this will be done which is almost 3 hours from here. Not really had a problem with food today, just getting enough down is the problem today.
We both are so scared and could use all the prayers we can get.
My prayers to all who are facing adversity as well.
All the animal lovers, keep em close.
Take care you all are amazing!!0 -
Hello. I'm new to MFP and am looking forward to the accountability this will provide (I need the peer pressure)! I'm also looking forward to getting to know some of you.
To give you a little background, I'm not quite 50 (just a few months shy) but hope you won't hold that against me, I'm married to a wonderful man who is joining me on this journey (so nice to have that support) and we live in California.
Like I said, I'm looking forward to joining you all on this trek!0 -
Just a quick hello...
It's been a busy time for me lately...Mom in hospital for 4 days (an infection - she's doing fine now), then a wedding, then a friend visiting. Tomorrow, I'm heading up to Reno for a baby shower for one of my nieces.
I made one of the pics from last weekend's wedding my profile pic so you can see my beeyutiful kids! The wedding was great. The bride's mother was not...at the rehearsal dinner, told the pastor not to say anything religious in the ceremony because her friend was an atheist. Ohmigoodness. Fortunately, he ignored her but I'm sure it was disconcerting. She only got worse from there. But the wedding was beautiful!
Our family is growing by leaps and bounds. We have a couple of new babies and 2 on the way. We're up to 56 (counting from my folks on down to the littlest ones). Family get-togethers are harder but I count my blessings having such a big extended family - and we all get along!
I hope you are all doing well. Kackie, I was thinking about you at the wedding. I hope your son's wedding went well.
I don't think I'll be able to go back to catch up on all the news so will just try to keep up from here on out.
BTW, I visited the organic produce stand down the road today. Kale, Swiss chard, just-dug potatoes, squash and fresh raspberries. It helps me stay on track.

Hello Everyone, Today was very hot and I am very tired. Today the group went to the county fair lots and lots of walking at least an hour more but only claim like 40 minutes for workout it was at slow pace. Was able to fiind something sort of healthy. So it was good. Feet and ankles swollen a lot but overall good.
@LaurelFisher glad to hear that Matthew is doing better.
@megblair1 I am excited about the Olympics starting too. We are going to miss the opening ceremony ;( though taking my daughter to the fair to see Sara Evans. She been very excited since the lineup was announce.
Take care stay cool!

Good evening ladies:flowerforyou:
Welcome to the newbies:flowerforyou: , this is a great group of women full of inspiration and motivation. Share your stories and your goals, we are all cheerleaders for each other.:happy:
Last night my dinner out was so good
, I did have 2 glasses of wine, and since I had a light lunch, well the second glass had me feeling really good:blushing: . I did not have a headache this morning though!!!!
It has been really hot here the past several days, we at least have had some rain with it, my yard is now green again, and the flowers that I thought were dead, well....they have started blooming again, I find that very odd because I had been watering them everyday when it was so hot and dry, and they dried up:huh: I went out to pull them out of my pots and to my surprise I see green leaves and little white flowers. Maybe I just overwatered them.:laugh:
It has been a long day and I'm tired:yawn: . I hope everyone has wonderful dreams!!!
Hug,
DeeDee:yawn: :yawn: :yawn:0 -
Hi Gillian, and All,
I've been looking for a group like this since joining MFP in April. I'll be 55 in a few weeks, and decided during the Spring after a partial hysterectomy that I needed to finally do something about my weight and overall health. I'm a teacher, and couldn't really muster the energy or willpower until after the end of the school year. Since July 1st I joined a gym and signed up for some sessions with a trainer. (He looks like Superman -- no kidding! Square jaw, massive upper body. I have a hard time concentrating, honestly.) I've been swimming too, since that's something I used to enjoy when I was younger.
I also am trying a gluten-free diet and am feeling much better, but it takes more planning and re-thinking everything I do in the kitchen. I'm using the summer to try to establish new kitchen and exercise habits so that when school starts again I might be able to maintain them.
I'm married to a naturally thin guy who tries to be encouraging, but then will suggest we go out for ice cream (something I've always loved to do) without thinking that's probably not a good idea when I'm working so hard to loose weight. I have a 16-year-old son, also naturally thin, and loves junk food of all kinds. He turns up his nose at anything that sounds healthy, so when I serve dinner I have to change the names of the recipes and neglect to mention some of the ingredients that he would find objectionable.
Would love to add some friends to MFP, and definitely need a group to help me stay focused on my goal to lose 50 lbs. So glad I found you!

The day got away from me and am just now sitting down to catch up with emails. How can I have so little time when I have no one to take care of but me and don't even work!?!
Nothing much to share today - time to make another big salad; my last one is just about gone. Will say, this heat is getting the best of me.
Have enjoyed reading all the posts and slowly becoming familiar with everyone. And thank you for the welcome greetings.
xoxo

Rose - so happy to read about Matthew. Any surgery is concerning, but at his age.... Just so happy things worked out so well. AIDupont IS a great hospital.
Linda-Sundance - isn't it just maddening when you've gone for a long time with no period and then suddely get it? I know that I get upset
Linda - welcome! Good for you nipping the weight gain in the bud. I tell you, I can't believe how fast the weight comes on and how long it takes to get it off!
Kathleen - tell me about how youngsters don't face the same issues we face with weight loss! Actually, with other things, too. Welcome! I'm assuming you have cats. How many? We have four
Viv - there was a dog at the humane society who couldn't use his back legs so they bought him one of the "wheels" things. To tell you the truth, he wasn't crazy about it. I guess he'd spent so much time on only his front paws that it bothered him to have the wheely-thing
Amanda - good luck on the extraction. No extraction is fun. The good thing, tho, is that you don't want to eat....lol
Did an hour of Jari Love's extremely ripped DVD today. Tomorrow I'll go to water aerobics. After doing the DVD, had breakfast, went to Verizon because the part that covers the screen on my phone broke and it was driving me CRAZY. Seems my phone is too old (it's 1-1/2 yrs old) and they don't carry them in the store. However, Vince looked on Amazon and they sell them for $2. Then bowled 5 games. Then did a bit of grocery shopping. Tomorrow after water aerobics I'll go to another store
You know, playing Wii bowling the other night with our friends somehow really brought to light the fact that so many of the Newcomers want to just play board games or card games, then I hear the "I'm trying to lose weight" mantra. Well...duh. To lose weight ya gotta do more than sit and play cards or games.
I have the opening ceremonies for the Olympics set to record.
Say, when you buy a cantaloupe, does it continue to ripen, in other words, after you buy it should you store it on the counter or in the refrigerator? I bought one at the faarmers market last Sat., left it on the counter, and cut it up yesterday. There was one tiny spot on it that was soft.
Kathy - Vince and I volunteer at the Humane Society for the exact same reason - to help with the socialization (and thus adoptability) of the cats. My daughter got me this magnet for my car that says "one cat away from being the crazy cat lady". A friend of mine said "honey, that ship has already sailed"....lol
Jessica is supposed to be here. Seems she's been talking to Ken and Lynette and said "oh, mom will be able to have something, why don't you come over for dinner? Then Sat we're supposed to go to Boone (about an hour away) to meet for lunch a woman Vince used to work with. Jessica is going to go with us. I think I know the name of the restaurant so I'll check out their menu beforehand
BettyLucille - welcome! Don't we all feel like the scale sometimes just isn't our friend at all?
petalsandpaws - oh, I'm so so sorry to hear about your hubby. Will be sending lots and lots of prayers
cdkohns - welcome! tell us more and more about yourself.
mimi - what lovely kids you have. You have a lot to be proud of, that's for sure. Sounds like they made the best out of the wedding, that's wonderful! Where do you hold such large family reunions? Is everyone in basically the same area? Have you ever had purple potatoes? One man at our farmer's market has them. I honestly didn't see much difference between the purple potatoes and white ones. Have you had red okra? I really like it, it's not as slimy as the green okra
Polly - welcome to the absolute besttest group on MFP! Say, are you SURE your son doesn't have any long lost sisters??? sounds exactly like my daughter -- loves her junk food. Glad to hear that I'm not the only one who "accidentally on purpose" forgets to mention things in a recipe. One time I made a zucchini chocolate bread. It really was quite good but this time I'd left the zucchini in the food processor too long. It was SOO small. So I asked Vince to try the chocolate bread (I just didn't mention that there was zucchini in it). He ate the whole thing! Now if he'd known that there was zucchini in it, he wouldn't have touched it, so I didn't tell him
Jessica will be here soon. Hope everyone has a great evening.

Michele, we only have one cat these days. Weird, I know!! We've had as many as 5 in the past and I could easily wind up with more. I started using the 'owndbycatz' name on the web/ebay, etc., during the time we had four, including one who took daily heart medication (and had his own cat cardiologist) and another who was an old lady with diabetes and required twice daily injections. It was a major event for my partner and I to both leave town at the same time.
The one remaining cat member of the family is 11 y.o. and is getting a bit senile. She gets 'lost' in the house sometimes and I have to go find her where she's crying because she can't find anyone. We're going back east to visit the kids in a couple weeks and we haven't found anyone who will house sit and she gets so stressed when left alone, so we're going to have to board her. I'm a bit nervous about it.
We're most definitely cat people in this house.

Hi Ladies,
Just checking in for the day. HA is gone today. Thank Goodness! This evening we went and shot trap on a trap league as a family. My oldest daughter, Sam wants to go to the 2016 Olympics as a team USA female trap shooter. Her idol is Kim Rhodes.
Kim is at the Olympics in London Now. She will be shooting Skeet this year. She is really a wonderful role model for young women.
Doing well today , other than these PMS bodily complaints.:explode:
:mad: :ohwell: :ohwell:
Don't have time to chat tonight and this keyboard is driving me crazy.It keeps back-spacing.
Welcome to all the new fab 50's ladies. Just check in EVERY DAY, this has worked the best for me to stay on track!! I will be off this weekend, so I will chat with you all then. Prays for those healing from surgery's and those having trials right now.
Blessings, Linda SundanceB ( I think we have 3 Linda's Now) :drinker: :drinker:0 -
Good morning ladies from a grey and slightly muggy London.
Petalsandpaws – I will keep your husband and yourself in my prayers.
Laura – are you still on bay watch ... I mean baby watch?
Mimi – glad to see you! What gorgeous children you have.
Laurel – it’s a good sign once your little patient starts to get an appetite back. Bless him.
Polly – I’ve spent over 20 years trying to fatten my DH up and he can still fit into the clothes he wore when he was 16. It’s so unfair – however, he still looks good and as sexy as anything, so I don’t mind at all.
Michelle – you are right about the not eating after an extraction –I’ll put that down as a positive!
Robin – after all those stairs you will have thighs of iron!
Rachel – DH and I love backgammon and have a few really nice sets that are mainly for show but every once in a while we get one of the good sets out and play with it as a special treat. We also play mahjongg but have, unfortunately lost the couple who we used to play with – how inconsiderate of them to get divorced!
Wizzywig – there is a little sausage dog in my avenue who has his back legs on wheels, he's had them for about a year. He is such a happy little dog and it obviously makes it a lot easier for him to get around. Hope you are feeling better too.
Meg – it’s funny, I didn’t even think of niggled not being a global term. I would put it on a par with ‘mild irritation’. DH had a very competitive brother and also went to a highly competitive boarding school so he’s not a good loser!
To all the newbies – welcome. To all the oldies (and I say that with affection!) hello sisters.
I too talk to the dogs, but with the added insanity of talking with a dog accent (think Scoobydoo). People look at me as if I’m some type of nutter when they hear me, but I think it’s always polite to try to talk in appropriate dialect!
Today is a ’not going to work day, but lot’s of work at home instead day’. I have already been out this morning and want to get as much done as possible so that I can get another good walk in this afternoon. So it’s time to get my derrière out of the chair.
Have a great day if you possibly can. Try to do at least one thing that makes you smile!
Love to all.

I have always hated guns, as they are associated with death for me........BUT if my ex had suggested trap shooting I would have jumped at the chance! We have a nice range right down the way from where I live now and I like ot sit and watch the families together.
They did pink ones for breast cancer one weekend, which was really neat. I guess the proceeds from paying to shoot went to research or something IDK.
Anyway, cool thing!0 -
Good morning, everyone! I so admire those of you who try to respond to all who post. That is overwhelming for me. I'm going to try with three:
Laurel and Petalsandpaws: I am so sorry you are having to deal with health issues with your loved ones. I said a prayer for you.
Kathy: I love Kris Kristofferson. My first date with my DH back in 1974 was a Kris Kristofferson and Rita Coolidge concert (back when they were married to each other) at the Fox Theater in Atlanta. We came out of the theater to a huge snowstorm (unheard of in November in Georgia, but it happened). It was too unsafe to drive 75 miles back home so we ended up spending the night in Atlanta at my college roommate's parents' house.0 -
good morning ladies to all my new friends here last day of work for me this week and then off to see my grandkids tomorrow yay i miss them so much and every time one of my granddaurghter gets mad at her mom she tells her im telling nana on u and nana will get u lol she wants to live with me i finnally got my husband in on eating healthy now thru the week but weekends are another story but thats a start hope all has a great day0

Hello all -
Just another fairly quick check in. Internet connection may never get better; who knows!
I live in Central Iowa and our temps are expected to be in the 80s today. Good news is that the voluntary water restriction is apparently being taken seriously and officials report water usage is down already. They actually had some people driving around yesterday checking to make sure people were not watering their lawns.
Prayers for improved health for everyone suffering. It is difficult whether it is your own health situation or that of a loved one.
Warmest wishes for a lovely weekend for everyone.
Enjoy whatever bit of the Olympics you are able to watch.
:drinker: :drinker:

Love it Friday:flowerforyou:
Robin- 12 hr day, 13,000 steps:noway: you inspire me. Don't forget to drink plenty of water while you are working outside on the dog run:drinker:
Meg- drink plenty of water while you are sitting and watching the Olypmics it's a great way to keep the hands busy when watching TV
Rachel P- great going on getting up and moving...during lunch is always a good time:drinker:
Kathy- How was the concert? :huh: Those two together would make for a great one.
Rose- glad to hear that Matthew is doing so well after his surgery:flowerforyou: Getting in the exercise too...good for you:drinker:
cjspensley- How fun to have a bike ride with your son while he's home. Our #3 son was in the Air Force (2002-2006), he's in grad school now and living in the north end of the city. He's totally into being physically fit, bikes, runs, boot camp ..you name it and he does it for exercise...he's always trying to get me to do something with him but I'm afraid I'd just slow him down:noway: so instead I just encourage him to take his wife on his exercise excursions She told me last week that she has started running with him (1 mile) he told her once she started she would love it...she told me she doesn't love it yet:laugh:
petalsandpaws- :flowerforyou: Prayers for you and your hubby:flowerforyou: I know it's hard to eat during this stressful time but you do need to keep up your strength, maybe see if there is a protein bar that would give you some much needed positive calories to help you get through the day.
Mimi- so good to hear from you. Your family looks wonderful...mother of the bride telling a "pastor" not to say anything religous at a wedding:noway: that gave me a smile and a shake of the head All that fresh produce you bought sounds wonderful too
Liz- getting to take your daughter to hear Sara Evans...that would be so much fun:flowerforyou: Enjoy. I'm sure your swollen feet and ankles are just heat related...drink more water and elevate your feet:drinker:
DeeDee- your dinner w/ wine sounds wonderful Flowers blooming when you thought they were dead:laugh: that seems to be my story a lot and I work for a landscape company:laugh:
Polly - Welcome:flowerforyou: You will find a lot of encouragement here as well as fellow teachers...there seem to be a lot of you here I understand not telling your son the ingredients of some of your dishes...I found that as my sons became teenagers (they are 35, 31, 28 now) that foods that they used to love they suddenly wouldn't eat because they saw what I put into it when I was fixing it...so I finally had to start making things when they weren't around so they wouldn't know what was in the food:bigsmile:
Kathleen- I look forward to the day when I don't work and can say the day got away from me....for now retirement is just a dream that doesn't seem to be in my future:grumble:
Michele- I know that when I look around at people our age and older if they don't do any form of exercise they seem to be of the larger size and when I see some outside and walking or riding a bike I always give them a mental good for you because something has to click inside each one of us to want to make this change so we can have a more fullfilling life. Isn't it amazing how our kids always know that if they "pop in" that Mom will always have something to feed them
Linda Sundance- Trap shooting:drinker: How awesome is that? I've never done anykind of shooting that involves moving targets...just those that stay where they are supposed to Your daughter has great aspirations:drinker:
Amanda- Talking Scooby Doo voice to your dog:laugh: :laugh: I don't think Peanut would be able to understand me if I did that.
bigpal- my grandsons are too little to say they will tell grandma if they are having problems with mom & dad...but I'm sure it will happen someday. Good for you getting your hubby to join you on this journey:flowerforyou:
Lin- we are on voluntary water restrictions here in Denver, but if it gets any worse I'm sure it will become mandatory
++++
Hubby said he went to the community pool yesterday to see DIL#2 and grandsons....she doesn't think this baby #3 is going to arrive anytime soon:grumble: even though she has had some very serious days of contractions...so we continue to WAIT:sad:
Had a great bike ride last night after work. When we were getting ready for our ride hubby was saying his "backside" was really firm...and it was....where as mine is still soft and mushy:blushing: He still has a tummy but he made comments about his portions last night so maybe something is starting to click in:huh: Since he does a lot of elipitcal maybe that is why he is so firm...I better check that out...maybe make that one of my August goals:bigsmile:
I have to finish payroll and get some billings out. Everyone have a good day. If you do it log it...water, food and exercise:drinker:

Hi all,
I joined MyFitnessPal about 2 months ago. I'm down 14 lbs and facing a number that I have had a psychological barrier with for many years. I am thinking that I can do this!!! Have about 180 lbs to lose, but am already feeling a difference. Missing exercising as I tore my right meniscus pulling weeds in April and may be having surgery soon. Looking forward to connecting here. God bless!! :flowerforyou:0 -
Today is the last day of training on how to use iPads in the classroom. We have learned a lot and I have also learned how much more I need to learn! This should be an interesting year. I know my students will adapt quickly. I am sure they will be teaching me!
The downside to all of this is that all I have done for three days is sit. I did get in a walk yesterday. Shorter than usual, but faster. I was trying to get it in before storms hit. We actually had a tornado watch for a while. No real strong storms hit us though. Some areas south of us were hit with strong winds, trees down, powerlines down, etc.
My thoughts are with those of you going through challenges.
Deb A0 -
OMG I just typed a HUGE reply and pooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooofffff where did it go?
So this is short. I lost 1 pound this week
My prayers to all who are having health challenges; Petals and paws please let us know what happens.
Sorry I am not replying to all again......I'm at work and have to get back to it. Take care and more tomorrow. meg0 -
Good Evening Ladies
Thanks for the big welcome....just settling down to watch the opening ceremony of the Olympics...not a chocolate in sight!!
Take care all
Linda x0 -
OMG I just typed a HUGE reply and pooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooofffff where did it go?
It happens to everyone. The smart one use a Wordpad or someother document to compose the post and then copy and paste it into a reply. I tend to copy my replies as I go so I don't have to recreate all of it when it disappears into the ether.
I am glad it is Friday. I plan to consume lots of water this weekend working on the dog run (thanks for the reminder Laura )
I am way down on steps today. I will have to hit the dreadmill when I get home but I should still get around 20 flights of stairs. I have to spend some time and catch up my food diary, My new job has messed up my routine but I will get back to it.
Have a great day ladies.
Robin (Bodi and Ritter)0 -
:flowerforyou: Thank you everyone for your prayers. Just left the hospital to bring Rowan (Matthews's 2 yr old sister) back to the RMH to take a nap. Matthew is doing wonderful, sitting up coloring and eating. They are going to take the drainage tube out of his chest today and they said he may get to go home Sunday or Monday. He will have to come back for check ups and to make sure he is healing properly. The doctor said this will probably be his last open heart surgery. Any thing they need to do in the future will probably be done in the Cath Lab.
:flowerforyou: A friend from high school owns a greeting card company If you get the chance check out her web site at www.sendoutcards.com you can use their cards or create your own. The cards are really nice and not expensive at all. Again thank you for all the well wishes and prayers. Love ((((HUGS)))) and Prayers, Rose

Good afternoon ladies:flowerforyou:
Rose , hope your grandson is doing well, sending positive energy your way.
Polly welcome:flowerforyou: . Changing names of recipes, I've done that too, funny how they actually like things they say they don't :laugh: .
Kathleen salads are one of my favorite things, I have one of some sort everyday!
Michele will you tell me how you froze your cherries? Do you just put them in a baggie and put them in the freezer? I bought a big bag yestereday and I need to do something to keep them from going bad. Have fun with your daughter this weekend!!!!
Linda-SundanceB trap shooting sounds like fun. I have a friend that does it, I might have to go with him next time.
Amanda good luck with your tooth extraction. Hope you feel better soon:flowerforyou: .
Bigpal my granddaughters tell their mom and dad the same thing, they call me MImi, the oldest one says "my Mimi will make you sorry, she loves me." I think it's funny, to think I have that much power!!!!:laugh:
Lin hope you get some rain soon to bring up the water level!
Laura80111 baby watch - we are all waiting with you! My oldest granddaughter came 3 days early, the youngest one came 2 weeks late!!!! They arrive when they choose to.:bigsmile: . I think I might need to get on the elliptical too, I have a bit of padding on my backside, I know I would love for it to be much firmer!!!!!:laugh:
ShowMeMom:flowerforyou: welcome!!! Congrats on the 14 lbs. down, that's fabulous!!!!! Hope your knee feel better!!!

Lindajaques have veggies while you enjoy the Olympics!!!!! Good for you not having chocolate, veggies are tastier than chocolate right:noway: . Maybe a little bite of dark chocolate, it's good for you!
I have had an odd day, I seem to be a bit clumsy. I tripped over a box in the garage this morning, hurt my leg, got a big bruise now too:frown: . While I was hanging up a pair of pants, my finger got caught on the hanger and cut it, it's right at my nail bed, and boy does it hurt , earlier today I was on my computer and logged in to MFP and it said I had a virus:huh: . Seems like a few people have had the same thing, I ran my anti-virus program and it said everything was okay, however I still can't get on, on the computer, I'm on my iPad now and have had no problems. Oh well :ohwell: , some days are just odd. I think though I will stay in the rest of the day. We are having a major thunderstorm right now, wind, rain, thunder and lightening, I best get off my iPad now, wouldn't want anything to happen to it.
Have a great evening ladies:drinker: :drinker: :drinker:
Hugs,

DeeDee---I've had that happen to me the last 2 days. I ran a complete scan yesterday and there was nothing detected. I don't know what's up but I'm not liking it! :grumble: :sad:

If anyone hears anything further about this, I'd love to know. I'm on my laptop and I try to keep this up-to-date and protected.
Beeeeee well.

P.S. I saved a few calories for some lower fat, no salt Michael Seasons potato chips for the Olympics tonite. I eat so few of them now they actually go stale before I finish them. Ha.0
