Sorry I started the 'political' discussion, it really wasn't supposed to be about the politics but to point out that a lot of people here appreciate the friendship between us and the sacrifices made in 2 world wars. I promise I won't post any more political stuff.
Apologies to all

Jackie Kane and Kidd Kirby just wanted to pop in to say (in the vein of Charles Shultz and Snoopy):
Happiness is a warm cuddle
Well wishes to all,

Wendy sorry about your daughter.
Allie I agree take deep breaths as you take your test. You can do this!1 -
Thanks to all who weighed in on the low carb question. I think I’ll find a way to do it without being so extreme. I probably need a good Keto cookbook and experiment with some things that taste like carbs but aren’t. I have the Trim Healthy Mama cookbook and it has some, I printed out a Keto cauliflower and cheese recipe that looks delicious that I saw on (gasp!) Facebook! Lol.
I just don’t know if I can get past the calories with all that cheese. It is definitely a paradigm shift in my thinking.4 -
Allie - best of luck.
Carol - sorry, should have just deleted before posting.

Lanette so glad to hear your test results are moving in the good direction! 2

Lanette,That's good news about your test results. You have been so consistent with your food and exercise. Jake's treatments are all local. He has a great doctor here. He has to add some extra meds, stop taking some of his regular ones, and add three appointments a week to his schedule. If the treatments don't keep him from being able to drive, then things will be much easier to schedule.Allie, Just relax and stay in the moment. Answer one question at a time and remind yourself that you have studied and are an intelligent woman capable of the task. Barbie 5

Did a workout on the bosu today. The plan for tomorrow is to do a Cardio Strength Challenge workout. Then I’m going to go to this luncheon with the Newcomers. Vince doesn’t want to drive all that distance. To me, it’s not that far. And it’s not like we can go every month so I think it will be nice to go.
Well, the rhinestones on my firefly seem to be holding. I’ll post a pic of my “latest”. One of my seahorses should be fired Thursday so I’ll be able to pick it up Monday. The other seahorse will go in the condo (since I don’t like it as well…lol). When I get the one back, I’ll post a pic of them both
Barbie – what great news for your walking friend!
Katie – “Question for the low-carb followers: how low do you go? I was looking at one plan that was 20 or less grams per day. The sample meal plans called for 8 oz of meat at one meal and only 3 cups of veggies all day. I don’t think I can do it. No carrots, no caffeine, no fruit. It said you could have all the meat you wanted if you were still hungry. Just thinking about eating all that meat or eggs with no toast or grits makes me want to gag.” I’m with you, it would make me gag, too. Only I can go without the toast or grits. My biggest problem is that I want more veggies and fruit than a low carb diet will allow. I can live without the caffeine, too. Great second opinion. I tend to have very dense breasts, too.
Wendy – I love to look at pics of horses. I’m in awe of them. Lady and Sunny are so wonderful looking
Re – I have facebook, but I don’t post very much, maybe once every few months and only something that’s important (like when we got the riverrock, when we got the mulch, pool opening/closing)
Heather – someone told me “now is the time when you lock your car doors otherwise you come back to your car only to find that someone opened your door and left zucchini on your seat”…lol If that happened to me, I wouldn’t worry much at all.
Allison – so sorry about your friend. Good luck on your test, I know you’ll do amazing
Mary – so glad for your daughter (and you)
Char – happy birthday
Vicki – what is the name of the place in Kearny? There is at least one thing that I’m looking for, I’ve been looking high and low and no one seems to have it. Maybe they would. I wouldn’t even mind having it shipped to me if I can find it. The place we go to for ceramics has a wall with samples of the paints after they’re fired. Only lately it seems that the colors come out streaky. This isn’t just for me, but I’ve noticed it for just about everyone.
Teen – welcome! I never heard of Plexus. Tell me more about it.
See4me – welcome. Keep coming back and you’ll get lots of motivation.
Rye – awwwwwww
Annette – welcome!
Unfortunately, I started on the crab and the one paint that I needed they don't have very much of. However, this being a government facility, they get money the beginning of July so they'll put in a purchase order for more.

We're actually not supposed to talk about political topics here in this thread. They were deemed off limits ... perhaps especially since we've got people from several different countries here, with different perspectives and the whole thing could potentially become quite volatile.

Meanwhile over here in Australia ...
I'll just make a little public service reminder: Get Your Affairs In Order!!
That's especially for those of you with partners.
Make sure you both know everything about your accounts, bills, etc. etc. etc. of all sorts. Make sure everything is up to date and crystal clear.
It's easy to say, "I'll remember my password" or "We'll sort that out later" ...
But then all of a sudden the unexpected happens, and one partner is burdened with figuring it all out. And let me tell you ... that's not easy.
I've got a list of things to do a kilometre long. And it seems like every time I do one or two things ... and have a small victory dance that I finally, after weeks of work, have sorted those things ... then they just reveal a mountain of other related things I need to do. It's like there's no end to it all!
I'm living in Pandora's box.
So ... while you're all of "sound mind" ... sort it all out!! Trust me!

I’ve been on the road to Florida. I’ll be staying at my daughters house for a while helping her with the kids. We drove 750 miles in two days. The kids loved staying at the hotel!
We’ve been having fun, but the day drinking at the pool had got to stop!!
I’ll be in out and try to catch up with the 300 posts! Wow!

So many crushed hopes.
DH is sad, but philosophical.
Love Heather UK xxxxxxx
I actually watched the majority of the game. I've never followed what we call "soccer" so did not understand all of what was going on, but still it was riveting. I was sorry they lost too. 😕

KatUK: No apology necessary. :noway:
Poison AKA Char from FL: Moving more has been my goal for a long time. Walking the dog to the groomer was a pleasure for both of us. DH went and got him afterward, and walked him home.
Tweenerqueen: Welcome to a great group!
Pip: Happy 2300! :flowerforyou:
Annettekris: Weclome!
I went to a lovely potluck dinner with my horse group. It was held at the home of Arrow's owner. I took a green salad, and it was very well received. The topic of the evening was how this group can help the county parks department maintain and create good parks where people can ride their horses. The park under discussion is located beside the Columbia River about 20 miles from where we live. I've tried to join the work parties before but haven't managed to connect with the people in the park. This time I'm not planning to try. DH's health seems better than before in many ways but he has exhausted himself.

I need one of these!
Right now, I'd actually take a whole day where nothing I do is something I have to do.
