WOMEN AGES 50+ FOR DECEMBER 2014

Spot! We love you even more now!

Good morning ladies~
Sylvia ~all your furbabies are just precious.....
I am sitting out here in the Florida room and it is 72 degree's im not happy about that or anything..
I have to find something that gets smoke smell out,, even though my DB and DSIL smoke outside it still is on there clothes and it sort of smells in here.. I think natures miracle will take care of it, just have to find it..
I am going to try and post a picture of my DFIL and his brother and sisters,if I can get it off of facebook...yesterday was his 87 birthday and they brought him a cake and visited for a couple of hours.. I so do miss him... but with him being as foggy as he is he did ask them if they had seen the maid lol so at least he remembers me..
we have been here a week and it is just so beautiful down here and I am having a wonderful time..I was exsausted yesterday..but it is only because 1 im getting over being sick, 2,having company is great but that is very tiring.. God Bless my SIL she cooked 2 very good meals while they were down.. we had steak one night and she made a roast chicken and my DH LOVED it, I dont think I have ever seen him eat that much.. so will have to get the recipe... she did stuff it with fresh lemon from our lemon tree.. and those crazy kids got us a cocktail tree.. now we had never heard of it either, it is a hybrid.. they graft different fruit trees together and it gives you between4-6 different fruits.., when I went to look at it, it has 3 different types of orange,lime, and red grapefruit.. that is a gist that keeps on giving,, but the darn tree was 160.00. they are crazy .... but we will enjoy it..
as my husbands aunt said this is truly Gods waiting room down here.. and believe you me , it is one waiting room I dont mind hanging out in..
Tom has been doing very well he goes out for a 2 mile walk every morning, he rides his bike..., I also walk and bike ride.. and walk in the pool...
yesterday I over indulged and paid the price didnt feel to hot last night, this morning I had toast and tea..
I use truvia and stevia... truvia I use 1/2 packet in my tea ,the stevia i use the liquid when I am out and buy unsweetened tea, you only need a little tiny squirt because it is very sweet.. but at least it is plant based..

Good Morning,

For some reason I could not see the last few pictures on our chrome book. I did go back to see if other pictures were affected. I got to see Heather's darling Holiday Cake again. It made me smile.

Sylvia I do not like Stevia either. I was given a free sample of a drink recently and it tasted off. I was told it contained Stevia. For me it has a bitter taste. I like my coffee and tea unsweetened. A dash of honey might help.

Beth amazing what happens when you read directions. Love it your the hero.

MNMargaret

ok my dear FIL Otto in the middle... to his left his brother Bill,to his right is his sister Mary and behind him his sister Margaret,each and everyone of the siblings has heart issues, my DFIL ,not one... just the dementia...Arlene , Bills wife is taking the picture...

I tried to post a picture to see why I am not getting the new pictures. The picture did not post for me. I do not see it. It is a picture of a water lily I took last fall in St. Louis.

Good morning everyone. It's cold and raining here this morning. Oh joy. Today's my day off from the shop, so it's my last day to do Christmas shopping, but now I have to go get the kids so my son can try to find a dentist. He broke a tooth on Saturday and it's pretty painful. Hopefully I will still get some time later to shop.

Barbie, I normally only drink water. Only tea when I'm sick but I only like it sweet, so I was looking for something to make it sweet without sugar. Now that I'm feeling a lot better I won't drink tea till next time I get sick. Hopefully never. Even when I do drink tea it's decaffinated. Don't care for honey either.

I told hubby about the Stevia. I told him it was "natural" and he said, yeah, strychnine is natural, too.

Beth, great job on reading the directions. My husband and son refuse to read directions too.

Bye for now.

Sylvia

Beth, Way to go!!

Margaret, I see your beautiful picture...don't have a clue why you don't see it though.

Got to get busy...not one gift wrapped yet and only a few cards written and sent. Good thing school is on vacation.

Eileen near San Diego

Good Morning! Thanks for all the kind words and encouragements! I love seeing all the pics of the pups here, too. I have a mini dash, her name is Shoshonee, 10 lbs and thinks she is all that. I will have to get a pic up of her soon.
Started the morning off right with a heafty breakfast. And today will be no taking that bite of a holiday cookie!

Rosie in Western Mass

I am unable to see any pictures posted today. The last one I have been able to see is Sylvias dogs. Diana, sounds like you have raised some good kids. Is so sweet you son who already lives there in town with you wants to be with the crowd. Before my daughter divorced the cad she was married to, he said that he never knew what to say when he was in his military uniform and some one would approach him and say kind of things. But yet he would go out of his way to wear it if we go out to eat or shop.

Can anyone tell me the story or what it means of the winter soltice and yule? I have, have, have to get the rest of my shopping today! Also some bills to pay

Joyce, Indiana

Joyce you and I must have had the same problem. I now see all the photos. Don't know what the glitch was. The water lily reminds me what a wonderful day I spent with my mom.
