Hey y'all! It has been months (if not years) since I have been faithful to my diet and am so encouraged to read posts from ladies in my age bracket! Please consider me a new friend from Alabama. I am pre diabetic, 65 year old Nana whose grand babies are about to move seven hours away (boo-hoo!). Instead of eating myself happy I decided to re-connect to other dieters, as well as create a new body of work in my studio. Would really appreciate your friendships!!

hi Lisa. Are you okay with me praying for you and your son? Mental illness is so difficult. I have depression myself.
Prayers are always accepted with gratitude. We're flying him down for a week with us in May, and he seems to be doing OK right now. Can't wait to hug his neck, though I'll have to climb a chair to do it... He's 6'3"!

Becca, thank you for those pictures! Great kitchen idea, approval poster and your gram and her band. Do you remember any of her performances? What did she sing - country/western? Show tunes? Fabulous!
Pip, nice tree and lovely flowers, what a sweet tribute to Lenny. By the way, we have our solar blinking Christmas lights still wound around a tree in the back yard. I think they are keeping the deer away - the colors change and they go through a couple sequences of flashing at different rates. If nothing else it keeps the neighbors entertained if they peep over the fence.
Katla, glad Dh got to drive! Is he itching to go on adventures now? LOL. Hope you didn't get wet at the stable. We had a couple ferocious downpours today, a bit of sunshine too.
Joyce, glad your tummy is better. Knock wood I haven't had that problem yet. By the way, I love reading about all the improvements you are doing to your house and lawn - please give us the whole picture tour some day
Karen in VA - golly, sending good thoughts Jilli's way! Glad she's going to the ER to get it checked out.
Allergies have hit me hard - worked outside yesterday, got a lot done in the garden - onions and flower seeds planted - I guess one good thing about rain is it washes the pollen from the air. I took half a Claritin D first thing this morning (Zyrtec is too puny right now) which has it somewhat under control but ears are still plugged and ringing, eyes itching and nose running. I stopped in at the doc's yesterday and she ordered an allergy pill that's supposed to be stronger w/o the "D" (pseudoephedrine.) Anyhow makes me tired and grumpy . Just took the other half of the Claritin D.
Time to prop my feet up with a cup of hot tea and keep reading on this thread, I've skipped a lot during the week. DH is watching the Dr. Blake Mysteries on Netflix this afternoon....another good one!
Have a great weekend, ladies

Meg hope you continue to nurture yourself.

Pip,love the tree. Is that one of his shoes?
This weekend is a free HBO/Cinemax so we are watching one of the Ice age movies. Each one is better than the previous.

Good afternoon: Got some lawn mowing and other yard work done with DD until it started raining. It is always interesting as we keep finding buried treasures. Today we found a piece of board, some old edging with stakes and some metal that we have no idea what it is or was. Horses are standing out in the rain eating green grass in the front pasture. Doing well on food except need more fiber.
DJ - Have fun on your cruise and a great birthday on Monday!
Heather - I know you will enjoy France. Travel safe.
Pip - Your spring flowers are beautiful. What a nice little space.
Meg - Yes, I did know about the FEI championships in Omaha. If I still lived in Sioux Falls, I would have tried to go.
Watched some of the qualifiers on TV.
Katla - Hope you are enjoying the horses and not getting too wet.
Everyone take care, Sue in WA2 -
Good evening ladies! I have been a lazy person today; it rained last night, and off and on all day. It's been mostly dark from the heavy clouds. Kind of hard to get motivated on days like today. I was going to burn leaves since I had neat rows of small piles along the driveway but I'll have to wait till they're dried out.
Today my DH and I was surprised to hear Dolly bark with a long bay at the end. I saw her with her head up and actually bay. True coonhound now!!
BTW: DH if feeling better but today he complained of a tightening of his chest. I reread the sheets that came with the meds and all 4 had tightening of the chest as a side effect! He quit taking the 2 for nausea and diarrhea. So we'll see how he is feeling.
Ann from Anniston Welcome!!
My grandkids are days away. I know how you feel. I'm going to Cheyenne, WY, to see my eldest daughter's son graduate from high school in a month, so I'm excited to fly up there!! I have to watch the diet! They all love to eat!
Have a good evening!!

Pip: Beautiful tree and flower garden. What a lovely tribute to Lenny.
Becca: Love the photos. Not sure about the green stove, though.
Lanette: I just drool thinking about all the gardening space you have. Hope you get the allergies under control.
Barbie: Where does Jake want to travel? Is going a friend an option?
Katla: Cheers for DH getting glasses and driving again. You’ve worked hard together to get there.
Sue: Mystery treasures, hmmm. You should post photos here and maybe this group will have some ideas of what they are. Or, we’ll all have fun making it up!
DJ and Heather: Bon voyage!!!
I’m heading out on a short business trip to Indianapolis on Monday morning. Today, my friend in Hawaii and I talked about travelling to Minneapolis in June. Her late parents left a condo in St. Louis Park, which she needs to prepare to sell. I’d be coming along to help her through the clean out and provide moral support. Margaret and Mary, I’ll be in touch once plans are confirmed.
Made the Skinny Taste shrimp patties for a second time and this recipe is becoming a true favorite. DH likes them with tartar sauce. I like lemon juice and red chili paste. We’re now settled in for an evening of watching sports.
Stay well friends. We can do this.

Hi Ladies!
It was a long week, but has ended well!
I made myself get on the scale knowing that a week of ham leftovers would be providing bloat ... and the scale reflected that. But DH and I are back at eating healthy.
NY Karen ... are you making plans to pick up your daughter from school soon? Our son is done May 3rd and I am mentally practicing how to pack up the vehicles. It took us two to get him to school and he has bought multiple pieces of musical equipment since being there!
Rain prevented any work outside and today was just too soppy to get anything done. I did some decluttering in the basement instead.
Have a good weekend!

Rori that sounds like a great plan!
Mary from Minnesota1 -
Rori, Jake seems to want to travel anywhere and everywhere. We don't have the money to travel after living way above our means for many years traveling with our RV. Also his health and his low tolerance for stress make travel challenging for him. He isn't realistic about any of this and our conversations about travel make it sound like I'm a wet blanket. He's a great guy but sometimes he drives me crazy.

M in Oz: Thanks for the lovely photo. You look great. We are heading into spring and summer as you are heading into fall and winter. I know & understand it logically, but it still seems so amazing that our seasons are opposite.
Thanks!
I'm a Canadian-Australian so the season thing was a bit of an adjustment for me too.

Lanette. My grandma sang like Sophie Tucker!
https://youtu.be/MMK4v2DIUzY
She and her band played at county fairs, at malls, and at senior facilities. Here is one of her costumes. She made all of her outfits! They had others in the group that tap danced, but my grandmother just did a little soft shoe.
