Happy Loosen Up, Lighten Up Day!
Here the day is halfway over and I'm just now getting my post in! "‘Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it’. – Ferris Bueller"
Mary - Glad you're enjoying Arizona!
Katla - Thanks for sharing the good news about your grandson. Glad he's doing better.
Barbiecat - Congratulations on your new glasses... if you're like me, you can hardly wait to get them! Wish I could hit the rewind button on my eyes, but at least I can see well with my new glasses.
Joyce - I've been enjoying The Good Doctor. My experience with severely autistic people is limited, but it seems to me the actor does a very good job of portraying a young man who is really different in ways that aren't visible to the eye.
Terry - Thanks for the nut brittle recipe! I don't use a candy thermometer for stuff like that, I just use a cup of cold water. We still have a lot of pecans, so I may have to make some pecan brittle to give away.
Felicia - I agree with you about the fruit of the spirit. It seems like a lot of the people who are most vocal about what other people ought to be doing aren't exactly reaping a bountiful crop themselves let alone sharing it with their neighbors.
OK, I've loosened up for long enough. Back to work!

Eaten and drunken too much today. Back to my usual regime tomorrow. Promise.
I'm three pounds over my maintenance goal, so need to rein in a bit.
Haven't heard about the viewing. The last person thought there wasn't enough parking! :noway: We had a nice lunch out and I did well on calories with two small starters. Don't know what happened this evening! DH is upstairs watching football so that might be the answer.

Hi Everyone, you all seem like wonderfulgroup of ladies! I'd love to join in the conversation. I'm 53. I want to lose 30-35 lbs this winter and just am not finding the much-needed support I need. If anyone likes to encourage and converse back and forth to motivate each other (more than just the occasional 'like') send me a request. I'm good at encouraging people too. I'm doing it for both weight loss and to better my physical health. It's been so tough because I got into bad food choices in the last 3 months and gained 8 lbs. I've been better at saying no to sugar in the past, but lately it's won. Now I'm just going cold turkey---uffda! I have to say Halloween was really tough this year with the leftover candy too. BOO to sugar! Hope I can learn from you all.5

GetinFitinMn- you will get plenty of encouragement on this site! It looks like you were from my home state of Minnesota. There are a few of us on here from Minnesota. Let us know what you would like to be called. You have already joined by just being here. Up at the top click on the star and book mark it so you will be able to find us easily.

Welcome to the group. We are a diverse group of supportive (and sometimes funny) group. Where are you from and what do you want us to call you?1 -

Today must be the day for haircuts. Got mine done too.1 -
Thanks for the good wishes. The patient is doing well.Stomach is Black & blue,but he’s healing.At check up,Dr said he saw no use for PT & to keep him moving.Anyway,.good to have him home where I can keep an eye on him.
MICHELE....he comes from a family of plumbers & that’s what they call a fridge with water plumbed to it,for water & ice.
My sleeping is messed up from the time change.Awake at 3:15 this morn......gonna be an early night. Pat
quote="exermom;c-40821964"]Went to the deep water class today. The plan for tomorrow is to do an Upper Body Bikini Burn DVD.
Pat - your husband is so lucky to have you "pushing" him. Glad to hear he's feeling better
Pat - what is a plumbed fridge? Probably something that I just know by a different name
Dana - we had to put the cover on our med the other night. Boo!!!!
Meg - (((HUG)))
Allie - what side dishes are you making for Thanksgiving? We're having it at Jess' and I'm thinking that I should bring some sides. Thinking of making a macaroni & cheese casserole, a sweet potato casserole, and some biscuits. Give me more ideas.

Did a DVD on the bosu today. The plan for tomorrow is to take the deep water class.
katla - I didn't know that about the "King's English". Thanks for telling me. Great news about your gs. For some reason, I thought you didn't have the boat any more. I'm so glad you do
Joyce - I was reading in the paper today that Bojangles is looking to expand into the Evansville area and my first thought was of you. I love The Good Doctor. For some reason DWTS didn't record. I was so looking forward to it. Guess I'm going to have to watch it on the Internet (boo, that I can't fast forward thru the commercials)
Made Magic Cookie bars to take up for Thanksgiving. Now I'm making cornbread muffins. I'm surprising myself how little I want to taste the raw batter. As you know, that was always my downfall. I may have to run to WalMart and get a pie shell for the pumpkin pie. I guess I can freeze that.
Terry when Vince had his cataract surgery, the one thing that really impressed him was that the newspaper was so white.
Felicia - do you have your wishes (your sons go to your ex-SIL). Unless it's in writing, they may not be able to go to her based just on their word that that's what you said.
Had a little bit of the cake batter from the cake I'm making for the gal whose birthday is Thanksgiving week so I'm making Vince some muffins. They're in the oven right now. Then I'll bake the crust for the pumpkin pie. I'll probably make the filling when we get home from dance lesson. Update: made the filling and baked the pie. Then I made a chocolate fudge cake to take up. Food Lion has sweet potatoes on sale next week for 38 cents a pound. Guess where I'm going to buy them? Made some icing for a cake that I made for Vince the other day. This was just confectioner's sugar and water. Now I know that I really need to sift the sugar if I ever make this type of icing again. But it does cascade down a bundt cake pan nicely.
GettinFit - welcome! Keep coming in for lots and lots of support

Heather, I smiled at your grandchildren playing with the boxes. Someone suggested that instead of gifting things, that one might gift "experiences" like tickets to something special.5 -

Thank you, Hannah Joy is truly a joy. You're so right, it is like losing part of oneself. My second oldest sister passed over 15 years ago at only 61. I don't like being the youngest in these situations.
