WOMEN AGES 50+ FOR APRIL 2017

Question- What movie, music, or book pumps you up? When you need an inspiration injection or need to feel that "Rocky" hands-over-head feeling...what do you turn to to get that energizing injection? I love LOVE strong woman movies. Like G.I. Jane or Catwoman. Both horrid movies, but make me feel like I could kick the crap out of somebody. Very energizing (in a good way). What works for you?

I like a wide variety of music and for whatever reason, if I listen to music, it can stick in my head and play there for hours. So in the days before one of my long bicycle rides, I pick a selection I think I'd like to play in my head, and I listen to them several times.
Funny thing ... even after doing that I usually end up with something completely different playing over and over in my head.
But ideally I like something I know all the words to.

Becca - I'm glad that, in the posts since your vent, you seem to have recovered your equilibrium. I wish I had an answer for you with the empty nest syndrome you're facing--the best one I've heard so far is the one that suggested you volunteer. Perhaps Meals on Wheels, or volunteering at the local hospital to provide the human touch for babies in need, or something similar. You seem to be oriented toward caring for others, so why not widen that circle? Non-profits are always in need of dependable volunteers.
Sharon - Uplifting words! I won't say I believe every single day that everything will work out, but I know that having that goal in front of us is better for both of us mentally. My sis told me once, when I was moaning over some plan that wasn't working out, "It didn't ruin your life, it just ruined your plan. Change the plan." It's been helpful to remember over the years.
DJ - Adventuresome. I like that. I don't always have much in common with the people around me, as they are dug into their little burrows like bunnies (appropriate at Easter time). There are days I envy that a lot, while being utterly unable to do so--looking back at my life, I find that I've always looked at the horizon for the next thing. And I married a man who does the same thing, truly the best partner I could have found for my outlook.
Rori - Thank you. I hope our paths cross again soon. Somehow, I have a feeling they will.
Love y'all,

Machka9: What a ride. Are you lactose intolerant?
Thanks!
And yes, I am lactose intolerant.
I've had these protein shakes before a ride on a couple previous occasions and I was OK ... but I remembered too late that I took anti-lactose pills before drinking the shakes back then. Oops!

Morning Ladies~
Another night of fitful sleep..fit bit says I slept 9 1/2 hrs ,I did not...
today we are flat out 9-6 i am assisting today and not happy when it is like that, but at least I have a job..
Tom sucking up, but he can suck up all he want's not gonna work anymore..
of course you go to sleep and then your mine starts going on how it will all work out? and so on.. I am sure it wont be easy.. my last divorce was nasty.. and I dont think Tom thinks I will do anything.. but ya know it comes to a point where that is it. and I have hit that point..3 -
Morning, ladies - up early once more. Don't know if my body has simply adjusted to the thyroid medication, or it's the upcoming life change with the vacation and new job that has me back to sleepless mornings, but I'm OK with it. Missed this very productive time of my day while I was sleeping eight hours a night!
It promises to be a chaotic week, not my favorite mode, but inevitable in the circumstances. This morning is a ribbon-cutting for the U.S. Representative's office opening here, which at least makes wardrobe choices easy, as I'll be in my Chamber ambassador blue shirt for that. Then it's more training for my replacement, as we get that picture and article set, and get the usual stuff done for press day tomorrow. At 5 p.m., the Chamber Board meets, and I'm a member of the board. Then it's trivia night at the local coffee shop at 7 p.m., if I still have any energy left. Corey seemed to be coming down with a cold, so I'm going to let him sleep in, and check in with him after the board meeting to see if he's up to trivia. Hope it's just allergies.
Tomorrow is my last press day - which makes me happy. And, for a change, I'm not writing the opinion article. One of the area papers published a scurrilous, near-libelous letter from a local resident, with a veiled death threat against all of us at the paper. The local police have gotten involved, and are talking to the Texas Rangers, as it's out of the city. Don't know the upshot of the investigation yet, but left it to my young reporter to write the opinion article for the week. Not on the letter itself, but another paper's willingness to publish it. He did a much softer treatment of it than either I or my publisher was capable of writing, one of the reasons we have a great team, one that I'll miss a lot.
But, I'll be keeping my hand in. Will continue to edit the Kid's Corner story each week. I have a 13-year-old, home-schooled girl writing a serial set of stories for her English grade. I've been working with her intensely for nearly four months now, to help her understand the ins and outs of writing for publication, having her correct her own work with extensive notes from me. Told my publisher and the girl's mom I'd continue that through May, until she goes on summer break. Well worth my time, and couldn't just abandon her just because I'm changing things around. Will also continue writing the op/ed column each week.
Oh - and I'm also putting together the Best of Critique Cafe' submissions into a book for my writer's group. It's a chapbook, which we print every other year. Although the ambition was to publish it twice a year, it's not worked out that way. This will be my second, and the third published. Goosing writers to get things in on deadline has always been like trying to nail Jell-O to a wall. Luckily, the deadline is the end of NEXT week, not this week. Small favors.
On the weight side, I'm staying steady, but that's because I haven't been exercising. Did an analysis of my patterns, and when I exercise, I exceed my calories every single time, and steadily gain weight. I have been trying to figure out a way to make that different, and I think the key may be intensity. I need to drop the intensity of the exercise to the point where I don't trigger my appetite into overdrive, and that's hard for me. You may have noticed that I do everything at full speed. Still thinking that one over.
DJ - Our daughter is at Fort Polk, La., near the mid-western side of the state. It's about a ten-hour drive or so. Really looking forward to that--we'll leave early Thursday morning. If we get too exhausted, we'll stop along the way and arrive there Friday. If we can deal with it, we'll get there Thursday night, stay Friday and Saturday, and off up to Arkansas Sunday morning.
Really looking forward to a little time to breathe.
Love y'all!

Morning all, it's off to the races for me after my second cup of coffee. Making sure I've planned out my meals, office will probably order in lunch for us, so I would like to have an alternative to the usual junk food planning on staying after to organize a lot of mess off my desk and attack at least one pile of music that's my new goal--by end of June I will have all music file cabinets in ship shape--we'll see.
Becca empty nest for me had me and DH feeling closer and making an effort to spend time together-walking or running errands together--it was very reassuring to turn to each other. Also, I am liking that holding babies volunteer gig someone mentioned-after I retire I can imagine that being a very meaningful volunteer opportunity.

Becca we have all been where you are many times, sadly it is part of the journey. Have you ever made a vision board. It goes something like this and you get to be as creative as you like. Take a piece of a box or Bristol board. Think of your goal and put it either in written form, picture or other symbolic representation at the end or bottom of your picture. Then using anything you like: paint, magazine clippings, flowers for example, you llustrate your strategies to get to your goal. This is a creative and mindful excercise that activates the brain and can result in some pretty fantastic changes. It can be a very fun activity but it can also be very emotional so tears are fine. Then put it where you see it everyday. You can do this. In respect to the empty nest, it is hard at first but then you realize that it is your time again and you get to do things that you didn't have time for before and before long the loneliness is replaced with a new joy. You won't believe this now, I didn't when everyone told me that. I was so distraught the day I dropped my girls off at University but now 4 years later, I look back at that time from a very different reality. I am ok.
Rori congrats on the boring physical
Sharon so sorry to hear about your Easter Sunday and my condolences for your cousin.
Well it's off to work after doing my morning mantra and I am concentrating on practicing certain mind sets each day and today is compassion.
Have a great day. Sarah.4 -

Hello again. Lunch over. DYS bolted his down at a gulp and rushed off. I guess his mother didn't teach him manners. :laugh:
DH reading my children's books to Max and Edie. Will go out into the garden soon. Lovely weather.
My plates for Easter went down well. DDIL sent me this photo of them. Good job we didn't give them eggs. They still have five left!
Onward!

Sharon I agree about the power of prayer.
Lisa Love that "It didn't ruin your life it just ruined the plan. Change the plan."
I ended up having to go to a emergency clinic last night to get a tick removed. I tried all my standbys first and it wouldn't budge. I also did not know how long I had it one me. It was on my back and I didn't notice it at first. The good news is it was a wood tick and not a deer tick. Dr. said it didn't look like it had been on all that long. Still they gave me a one shot antibiotic. It made me feel sick for a couple of hours. Now I am feeling okay. Frustrating because I do love to garden. I will just need to be more vigilant in trying to prevent getting another tick bite. To be honest I am more worried about getting Lymes than the Zika virus.

Lisa ~ You are one busy lady!
Becca ~ I do hope you have a better day today. It's funny how our moods can change from one day to the next. One day I might feel like bawling for no good reason and then I snap out of it. I am sure it's something we all go through.
Re ~ Where are you?
Heather ~ Very cute plates that go with very cute grandchildren.
Sharon ~ I'm glad you got over your headache and had a lovely day with your family.
Going for my second knee injection today. The first one did not do a lot of good. Especially after standing up so much in church on Sunday.

Good morning all! Got the glitch in my computer fixed (for the most part). I did just turn it off and turn it back on. The only password I had to change was facebook. Like many of you, I have a system for choosing my passwords. I don't use anything that relates to my "now" life. I use passwords from my childhood. Or passwords that have to do with the site I am using. (How to sites get something like Ms.fixit, cooking sites get something like chickenforever) My facebook page was opened in 2008 and my original password was torres08 (for the wonderful Dara Torres winning her silver at age 41 in the 2008 Olympics). But it is changed now and I am confident in my new password. Even my DH, an IT/computer nerd, is impressed with my passwords. I do like the idea of the secure site that stores your passwords.
Lisa- Sounds like you have enough on your plate to keep you busy for a while! But all good stuff! I liked your comment about needing your alone time and having a hard time getting it with Corey home convalescing. I have to find a hobby for my DH, or hope he finds a job he likes after he leaves his current place of employment. I am sure, if he spends too much time underfoot, while I am trying to work at home, some one will come to an untimely end (and it won't be me).
Sharon- Your time with family sounds wonderful! I am glad your headache went away. I am so sorry to hear about your cousin. Cancer is a b****! Takes away too many.
Becca- Sorry you've got the blues! Empty nest syndrome is a force to contend with; BUT...I know you and how active and outgoing you seem to be. Make a to-do list of things you want to do or want to become involved in. Now...to give you a little giggle; you visited me last night in my dreams! I was at a church or big event type building for some type of fundraiser auction. I saw you almost running down a hallway, in your wedding dress and I yelled "Becca!", caught up with you and chatted while running together (down this neverending hallway) and then you said "I'd love to talk more, but I have to go sing." And you opened the doors to the main room and ran down and joined the choir! LOL! Can we count that run on our exercise this morning?
Marcelyn- Love the pool picture! I did a lot of cleaning, laundry, organizing, for DD when Joaquin was born. Seeing her in constant contact with that little guy (he seemed to be always latched on, nursing) made me feel a little sorry for her as she looked around her some what neglected house. DH and I did what we could while we were there. It felt good to help.
Matchka9- Wow! IN awe of your cycling! Go girl! I do have a walking/running playlist that I listen to with a wide variety of music styles. And...like you, if I am walking a longer route, my brain will replay the music that I like best!
Allie- You are always in my thoughts and sending you some strength and love!
Dana- So sorry to hear about your uncle! Loss is so hard! Congrats on your pound loss, however!
Gloria- Feel better!
twestra- Welcome! Also from "near Grand Rapids"! Grand Haven! I have been on mfp for a few years, but found this group just last year. I am 50 and have 80 pounds to get to my goal weight.
Well, kiddos are here and ready to play. We got the wagon out yesterday (a larger farm-type wagon that seats six small kids) and took that for a walk with all TEN kids that were here yesterday. My walkers were good boys and listened well and remembered our walking commands and the riders were content to point out every tree, cloud, bird, flower, etc. I felt fine after the walk (only a mile; we kept it short with new walkers)...but this morning?! O.my.goodness. Pulling a wagon full of kids will do a number on HALF of your body. Next time I will pull with the other arm. ttfn xoxoxo KJ (Kelly)4 -

Gloria: Feel better soon.
Margaret: I'm glad you had your tick seen to, and also glad that the doctor didn't think it had been there very long.
We hope and plan to get our taxes from the accountant today and get things in the mail for the deadline. We have never been late and would like to continue the tradition.

Newbie here, checking in. We got back from our spring break trip to Florida and I had gained 4 pounds. I was quite disappointed because I had tried very hard to make good choices at the restaurants we went to. But, I got over it pretty quickly and got back to work. So, I finally got those four pounds off and a couple more. I'm really feeling good about myself during this period of self-improvement. But, I'm finding that the more I get moving the more I have little aches and pains. Not anything to see a doctor about, but just things that niggle at me (sore feet and ankles and my knee has something going on with it-it's not really painful, but there is definitely something off.) I found a gym that's pretty close and not too expensive ($125/6 months for the whole family), it's quite small and doesn't have a lot of equipment, but I think it will be fine.
I have a dress that my mom bought for me before she passed away (still has the tags on it, lol) that I was never able to wear because I got pregnant right after she gave it to me and I never lost any of that "baby" weight. My baby will be 15 in May. Anyway, I tried it on the other day and I can actually get it over my head, and over my hips. I still need to lose probably about 5-10 more pounds for it to fit well, though. I'm hoping I'll be able to wear it to my oldest son's high school graduation at the end of May.
It's finally starting to get hot here in Georgia, so have to do any kind of outside activities in the morning or the evening.
Went shopping at Costco last night and saw the big rack of bathing suits. Like I said, I was feeling pretty good about myself, so I thought, why not? I'll give it a try. Well, I "tried" it on when I got home and immediately knew this was not the suit for me, lol. AACCKKK!
Carol in GA - Where are you in Georgia? I'm in Augusta, maybe we're neighbors? Also, when looking for a church home I found the same thing about the music, it was hard to find one with the right balance of good music, great people, good pastor that preaches the Word, and everything else you look for in a church.
pamfgil - Those kites are awesome!
Grandmallie - So sorry you're going through that. <<<hugs>>>
SSC1958 - 107 grandchildren???
Ketonekaren - Poor bunny, lol.
Headed to the gym this morning. I hope you all have a wonderful day! Remember to keep moving!

On the principle of "making your own fun" here is DH and the grandchildren (Bea has stayed with her parents) making a 'car run' out of the parasol box. Amazing how long it can keep them busy! Max cut a hole, so you have to position the car just right to get it to go through. We saved quite a few cardboard boxes for their visit.
We also had fun hiding the resin rabbit, squirrel and frog in the garden. Unfortunately Edie hid Froggy so well he has got lost.
Simple pleasures.
We had a lot of giggles when I told them that every person who gets to a hundred years old in the UK gets a card from the queen. So I said when the queen gets to one hundred she will have to send a card to herself!!! Dear Queen ..........best wishes from the Queen! Max is still giggling about it.

Happy World Heritage Day!
(Officially known as The International Day for Menuments and Sites)
Heather - When we were kids, we spent all of our vacations camping out. Not until I was an adult did I appreciate the sheer amount of work my parents - especially my mother! - put in to get together a camping trip for a family of five. These days I need a little more comfort, so I hope that someday we'll manage to complete the restoration of our old camper.
Janet - Little Mia looks so cute with her pink headband! And those tiny fingers... they get me every time.
Becca - Everyone needs a little "pity party" now and then. But when you're done, I hope you'll let us celebrate the wonderful person we see in your posts!
Feeeeline - I get whiny about health stuff too. I don't want to accept that my body can't manage the things it could 20 years ago.
Marcelyn - I second the recommendation for LastPass. I've got it on every device. If anyone ever cracks LastPass I'm in a world of trouble.
iaut2laff & twestra62 - Welcome to the group!
patceoh - Dish shopping sounds great! I've been thinking of changing mine out after we paint the kitchen. Love my old Blue Willow, but it won't really be a good fit in the new colors, and it would be fun to look for something a little more in tune with my current tastes.
Lanette - Good for you on solving your noise problem! You'll be a hoot at the nursing home some day!
Sharon - Condolences on the loss of your cousin. He sounds like a lovely person. As for camping, here in Texas you have to get your camping in before summer, because before long it'll be way too hot to step outside into un-airconditioned nature.
Allie - Glad you are standing up for yourself!
Philip and I are getting ready for a big de-cluttering program in May. We're going to try the thing where you get rid of one thing on Day 1, two things on Day 2, and so on. As a warmup, I'm thrilled to say that yesterday I gave away the non-functional riding lawnmower that we were going to try to re-build "some day." And today I'm giving the deep freeze that doesn't fit in our house here to a family a local charity found for me. I feel lighter already.

Good morning! Slept in a little bit and caught up on that lost sleep! My hubby isn't feeling well so I may have to take him to the doctors office. He's complaining that his stomach is hurting. He never complains if being sick so this is worrisome.
Lisa in TX be safe in your travels! We saved up and planned to move from Austin to Hot Springs to retire. I love it up here even though my heart is s Texan!!
We drove up for vacations for 12 years and always were looking around for retirement homes. It was 6 months before we retired we actually bought a house. We came back up to close on the property and met with flooring contractors to do work. Most if the work done was while we were back in Austin waiting for that retirement date since working for the state you have to declare your retirement date. So we retired at the end of the fiscal year so we had a complete year. I also had a woman clean the whole house for us. It was nice to move into it with nice floors and so clean!
Since the move was 500 miles the movers gave us a local rate, we moved my mother too. I guess I'm rambling but I'm so excited to hear of your plan to move up to Arkansas!
Drkatiebug I always take off my shoes. They add at least 2 lbs!
Have a nice day!

Dear Ladies,
Today is a new day! Went to bed at 9:30PM last night, expressed to my DH that I was melancholy for most of the day. We hugged and he told me he will always be there for me. A comfort I will never take for granted! I just need to communicate more to him, when I am blue.
Before, when husband was active duty I just handled my moods by myself. A sailors wife never burdens her husband with more emotional baggage than he already has. Letters to your husband should be filled with encouraging words and support, not willed with sadness or problems your sailor can't fix. These words are why I try to handle stressful feelings by myself. I circle my wagons! I put on my happy face. My sons never even knew that we had marital problems, we handled it with many discussions outside, or in the car etc.
So this morning Mr. Sun greeted me at 7:30AM! Tackling the bathrooms today. Not that they are super dirty, but just need to be wiped down. The master bath, has no toilet paper dispenser, which is strange. We have been using a metal paper towel holder that sits on the counter. Its amazing how much toilet paper dust is on the counter every day!
So I am invading y'all's DREAMS now? KJ Kelly was I a slim thing?? That is too funny!!!!
Lenora. I wanted to put my two cents in about the drivers licenses. I know my two eldest sons didn't get their licenses until they got out of boot camp, and were in the Navy for a bit. Getting their drivers license really wasn't a rite of passage, like it was years ago. I think every state is different, but in California they put a lot of restrictions for new drivers ie: no night driving or passengers the first year etc. Also mandatory driving classes, ( which aren't cheap!). Both my eldest sons just wanted to relax their senior year, before they went into the Navy. They had no desire to even get behind the wheel. I know every child is different, so this was just my experience now.
Well going to the grocery store for a couple of items.. Hugs! Love ya all!

Hi to all. It’s grey and rainy here; coming to work some of the streets were actually flooded. Today’s a pretty quiet office day then I have my 12-step group. I have been looking forward to it for a couple of days so I guess that means it’s a good fit for me. Still no word from DD#1. I am so tempted to just cut her out of my life. I do not get her at all; I simply don’t understand how she can be so unfeeling and uncaring. Even the BF hasn’t returned any texts or messages.
Michelle: I am surprised to hear you “slide”. You are always so consistent! I’m sure it doesn’t happen very often!
NYKaren: We too have to put a brake on the spending with DH retired from his full-time job. His retirement hasn’t kicked in yet; he just got the payout check Friday so will be going to the financial advisor to put it in a distribution account.
Becca: I think you are asking questions we have all asked. I find myself swallowing the last bite of something I didn’t even really enjoy or want and asking “why did I do that?” Then the pity party leads me to more bad choices. Hang in there! One baby step at a time.
Feeeline: That’s the nice thing about our site; we all understand “bad hair days” when nothing goes right and we need to vent. Sometimes those bad hair days become weeks or months. We have all been there.
Barbie: yes I have been very surprised at how much work Benny Beagle took…meds 7 times a day, nearly 200 pills a week, special food I had to cook, and on and on. We never minded really. But the last several week, his non-stop cough kept us up all night like before he was diagnosed. So it was really our honor to care for him until the end and ensure he was peaceful instead of struggling.
Patceoh: I don’t think it was the cooking because the BF’s mother did it all (they don’t cook). This is the daughter with all the cognitive problems who has always been difficult. She specifically told me there were only having an Easter egg hunt when I thought it was dinner and offered to help. So somewhere along the line she changed her plans and probably thinks she invited us, but who knows?
Joyce: did you just see the big research study on Parkinson’s disease and cycling? Apparently structured cycling really reduces the symptoms.
Rori: yes we have 2 cats still. One “owns” me and sits/lays/sleeps on me constantly. He is getting to be quite the pest! And at 20 pounds, he’s a bruiser!
Dana: I’m so sorry for your loss! But happy you lost in the good way too!
Allie: hugs to you!
Well I must get back to work. I keep trying to post a blog, but nothing will save. I’ve tried from 2 different computers and the help people have stopped responding to me. Any suggestions?
Take care Meg from rainy Omaha

Oh and welcome to all the newbies!!!0

Did about 45 minutes of Gin Miller's Sweet and Short interval DVD then a bit of a Leslie Sansone DVD. The plan for tomorrow is to do some yoga and then take the deep water class. Actually, since I'm really not crazy at all about the yoga class, I'll stop at the Humane Society first then maybe go to Bi-Lo to get items on sale. If I get to yoga, I get there when I get there, if not, oh well....
Becca - I'm so glad you felt that you could open up to us. Many of us can relate
Denise called yesterday. She gave her wedding dress to Jess to keep for her. Now the day Denise has her first fitting Jess just told her that she (Jess) wouldn't be there. Denise was in a panic!!! Vince just said to her "we'll probably see Jess before August (when the fitting is), she can give the dress to us. Then mom can drive up there with it". Not that I'm crazy about that drive. But I'll do it for my daughter
Lenora - I've tried pressure washing the bricks, the red clay (horrible stuff as you well know) doesn't come off. Perhaps Louis has a more powerful pressure washer than we have.
Have to leave in a bit to count the collection money for the church. Should be a fairly big deposit since it was the holiday. Plus there was a second collection
Welcome everyone new!
patcoh - how right you are, sometimes no matter what we do, our bodies produce more cholesterol. Becca take heart
I'd never heard of Last Pass, either. I'm going to talk to Vince about it and then do some research.
Joyce - Jess was telling one of the guys who was in the test drive how part of what she does is putting fecal into people so they get a healthier gut. Vince couldn't get over that someone would do that. I felt so good that you had told us about how Charlie had it done.
Boring Rori - I just got my butterfly back (that'll go on the pergola). However, there was just an upgrade to my phone and now I have to figure out how to send the picture to my computer
dana - my sympathies for your uncle. Take solice in the fact that he lived a long life. Congrats on the loss. Hope your hubby is OK
Counted the collection at the church. To be honest, I really thought it would be much larger. We used this automatic bill counter that this guy got. Pretty acurate. One of the problems seems to be that if bills are stuck together, it only reads one bill whereas the bill counter at the bank will read the two. But it certainly went a lot lot faster than it would have otherwise

Oops, forgot:
Becca - one time my son asked when I was going to stop worrying about him and my answer was "get used to it because when I die I'm coming back from the grave to worry about you. You will find that you will get involuved in lots of other things. Like now we're involved in bowling, the Newcomers, ceramics. I volunteer at the Green Room. Certainly any local theater would love to have your voice. The volunteer opportunities are boundless.
Kim I always liked a low sodium ham, but I can't find one here. I'll certainly look for the Boardhead brand. I know I've seen Smithfield and store brands
feeeline - It sort-of depresses me that my body just can't do some of the stuff it used to do or do it as fast. But that's part of getting older I guess
Yvonn - When we're down in FL during the summer, I always wonder how people managed before the days of a/c
