Kelly- teepee an adult version so you could fit in JRs lol.5ft tall by 4 1/2ft wide in all directions star shaped. He has a little kids one they threw in free 5ft tall but only 21/2 ft wide he knocks in down if he moves so the bedroom one more for reading in than moving in.
M Oz- Dads in his late 60’s got injured in his late 40’s . Does make a difference. My fear is as his dementia worsens he’ll loose his progress the areas he gained could be lost. Dad gets disability he can never follow directions at work again. He can better his home life only tho.
Today soup y left over Mac y cheese. After this think I deserve something different getting exhausted of macaroni fast lol.

Closet organizing going slow not sure if shirts that fit but too short will fit if I loose the last 20lbs. Will see I put it on Daughter bed if I loose still too short it’s hers. She is shorter than me.1 -
I have a lot of house envy. I left a huge house in Virginia to move here with my parents as part of my retirement decision. Now I have one bedroom, some basement space, and all of my furniture and stuff is in storage. I used to weave, and have two looms and a lot of yarn all in storage. I'm happy enough here, and saving money, but I really miss having my own home. Especially my own kitchen. My parents are in their late eighties, so this won't last forever. But for now, they are happy to have me and my dog around and I have all I need. Plus I am enjoying their last years with them.

Houses - I believe my home is where my family is and that is 1600 miles away. I have never felt any sort of attachment to my houses since (maybe because I don't have children), including the one I am in now. It's a nice house, but it's just a place to store me and my stuff. My retirement dream is to not have a permanent structure and just live 6 months in this country, 6 months in that one, 4 months here, 5 months there....and make my way around the world. I read an article many years ago about a couple doing that and have held onto that idea since.
Weight is staying stable by not eating after 6pm most nights and fasting after 3pm one day a week. That's good. Another positive of not eating so much is that my grocery bill has dropped drastically!
We are going into escrow on our investment property today. I really hope it goes through. That property causes me a lot of stress.
Hugs to all who are going through tough times. Make it a great week and weekend!

Terri- MFP doesn’t like to let me in here to post a lot or read an article that catches my eye when I hop on. So not sure why. Still a better site than most.

So while I'm without my Vivofit my husband suggested I use Map My Walk for my daily walk. Today was my first time using it. It gave me almost twice as many calories burned as my Vivofit did. I know that info can't be totally depended on but wow! What to believe?

Michele: Everyone is different. You seem to have excellent exercise videos that are right for you. I am grateful for my yoga classes and also for the chair yoga class that DH has found.
Kylia: I love your memories of your grandmother “squat walking” to pick up pecans. I’ll bet that I couldn’t do it, despite all of my yoga classes. :noway:
Lisa: Enjoy your snow.
(((Heather))): Memories can be challenging.
(((RV Rita))): Feel better soon. :flowerforyou:
I enjoyed yoga this morning. Now we are waiting for longtime friends to come and see us. We’re giving them a fresh sourdough starter because theirs failed several years ago. I am quite sure they failed it rather than the other way around. We have a fresh container of starter for them. It is ready to go. I hope they have a crock to put it in. The say they’re all set.

Home from French Circle. The lecture on Cezanne was good and we both understood nearly all of it.
Kids were excitable. Max had been on a school trip and was late getting back to school. We did our best to keep them entertained. Luckily Edie went off to her Rainbow group for an hour. (Part of the Guides) I felt sorry for the au pair. The kids do treat her a bit like a servant. But she does her best. Unfortunately Bea lost her monkey (her comforter) and we couldn't find it anywhere. She won't go to sleep without it. We had to leave before that situation was resolved.

Heather Thinking of you as you process your diary entries. Shocking…I don't think any of my diary entries would shock my adult self. Maybe cause some eye rolling & chuckling. I am sorry you were victimized.

Today a clerk with an attitude at the Social Security office "found" a form I sent her 6 weeks ago. I have been pulling my hair out because it needed to be taken care of by Dec 31. I had sent 2 forms without response. When she came back with the "found" form, I sat there with my mouth open, because she had just finished telling me that since I hadn't sent them the form in a timely fashion, I was going to have to live with the (costly) consequences. I started making a fuss, so she saunters over for a conversation with her supervisor, who eventually pulled my form out of one of numerous tall filing cabinets full of unprocessed mail! I asked her how this could be & she said they were "too busy taking care of customers to process the mail". To make it worse, I had mailed the form to her in a postage-paid addressed official government envelope she had given me at a previous visit, & never mentioned that it they don't actually process the mail & it would be better to come back in person. You can't make this stuff up. She was not too happy when I insisted that she give me a copy of the form with the dated stamp showing that they did get my form on time. Geez.

Make it a fabulous Wednesday, ladies!

My dream house is a beautiful old house we lived in for about 6 months.
This was the front hall
It was about 3/4 renovated and updated but needed just a bit of work. I loved that place!!

The home page and newsfeed are separate from the message board. They're not connected. So if one is down, it doesn't mean another part of this site is down.
Sometimes clearing your cookies helps.

Machka: I regularly clean out cookies and delete history. Mind you, the situation seems to have fixed itself now.
Not sure when I’ll get caught up. 😂4 -
Gray and drizzly sort of day today. I have choir tonight so white chicken chili in the crockpot for dinner. This way if DD is late I can go ahead and eat and she will have some later. Doing some decluttering.
Rita - hope you are feeling better soon.
Rebecca - Your little Athena is really photogenic.
Everyone take care, Sue in WA5 -

Did Jillian Michael’s Burn Fat Boost Metabolism DVD. The plan for tomorrow is to do Jari Love’s Get Ripped and Slim DVD.
I just found out that it really isn’t worth it to make applesauce in the IP. A 5lb bag of apples cost upwards of $2 and 6 four ounce cups only cost $1.25
RVRita – sending good wishes for you to get better fast
Rebecca – awwwww…especially in the tub
Karen in VA – that’s the government for you!! Unfortunately, being the government, I can easily believe it.
Here's the bear Jess made for PJ
Originally, she wanted to make something for me. Vince kept giving me the evil eye as if to say "oh, let her make something for you" but ma being ma, would rather see things for her children. So I suggested she make this bear for PJ. Now she did have to rush some trying to get it done in one day since she had to go back to school. I know if she had more time, she would have done an even better job.
