    Hello everyone,
    It's such a beautiful day out here in MA. More mulch spread, more Advil taken!
    I'm feeling down about my weight again. It's so hard to get it to budge. Tomorrow starts the next Biggest Loser Challenge so this time I hope to break through the 200 mark.
    I always feel this way when I am away and stay in a hotel for a week -- the mirrors over the sink and by the shower are so big that there is no escaping seeing yourself in all your naked glory. At home, the mirrors are smaller over the sink ones and much more to my liking :wink:

    Off to visit with friends. Have a nice evening.

    Janet, I am so sorry for you and your family. Hugs to all.

    I no longer have the throbbing pain in my jaw like I did last night but the pain today has settled in my jaw. The tooth that was removed was on the top but it's the lower part of the jaw that seems immobile. I can not imagine chewing. I know it isn't good for me but I am having a Wendy's Frosty tonight. I haven't eaten at all today. Just haven't felt hungry. And singing in the choir tomorrow just seems completely impossible.

    Got my hair trimmed today, and for once I LIKE it.

    Had bought a little nightstand last week, so today I dressed her up abit!

    A close-up of my heart on the wall. I have been "adding" to it for years, and I love it! Every so often I have to spray it with water to clean the dust off it.

    Lastly a picture of a print I have been wanted since the LAST time I was at the Crab and Wine Festival! We need to frame it, but I had to share with you all.

    The box on top of the nightstand is a cute cardboard box with a magnetic clasp that I bought today for $5 at Ross. I have a plastic art bin inside with my earrings. I have given up on the tennis racket idea. This was way more cheaper and less time. Like the "Paris Feel" to my side of the bed. The postcard is from my cousin that lives in Montenagro, but was France. The card is of the Eiffel Tower taken in 1947.

    Take care my friends!

    Oh, Janet, many, many hugs to you and yours.

    Carol, best wishes to you and your pastor. It is tough to take a stand on controversial issues, no matter which side you are on.

    I only got to the gym 3 days during the week, two of which were leg days, so I went this afternoon and did Thursday's arm workout that I missed. I did 3 groups of exercises separated by cardio bursts (I did 3 minutes on elliptical). Each had 3 sets of 3 things with the first being 8 reps heavy, the second 12 reps medium, and the third 20 reps light. The first group was bench press, bicep curls, and pulley pull down. The second group was shrugs, tree hugs, and bent over rows. The last group was tricep pull down, shoulder press, and hammer curls. I also won the Fitbit workweek challenge for the second week in a row. I rocked my April goals with a 4.5 lb loss.

    evening ladies~
    Janet~ I am soooo sorry for your loss, I am keeping your family in my prayers
    I have been running all day long,worked until noon came home took the dogs for a walk and then took a nap... I needed it, then stopped out to the car show for about 1/2 hr and then took myself to a hamburger stand that has awesome onion rings,shouldnt haven gotten that and the burger , but have worked them off, as I was going out there found a free fridge on the side of someones lawn, it was there on the way back, so took a picture and went and got my brother and his truck, came to the house and got the appliance dolly and went and got it and brought it to my dads house... then came home and mowed the lawn, was upset because I couldnt get the push mower going and I guess I sort of yelled at Tom, he hung up on me.. tried calling back to apologize and he had the phone turned off oh well...
    I am in bed with a cup of tea....

    CJ: I'm so sorry about your friend with stage 4 lung cancer. Since she wasn't a smoker, my next possible culprit would be second hand smoke or asbestos exposure. I had an uncle who died from that. I know there are a lot of chemicals out there that can cause problems. :broken_heart:
    Thank you so much. Yesterday turned out to be a lovely day. We saw a really nice play and I took her to dinner. We are going to get together soon. We are concentrating on the positive.

    Tara, my 34 year old step daughter, passed about an hour ago. She has an 18 year old son who is about to graduate from High School. Please pray for Antonio and for her sister, Lisa and their Mom, Paula.

    I so appreciate all of your kind words. I felt all the love and the hugs. Thank you all.
