    Wow, Heather! What a great rogue's gallery! :laugh: Two couples and 23 singles. I see you and J up there in the top row, second from the left.

    My choir continued to rehearse in person through Christmas, dousing ourselves with alcohol (on the outside, mind you) and maintaining physical distance. We had a physically distanced concert, too, with a small audience of 130 people carefully assigned to specific seats in an auditorium that normally seats about 400. This pic is from the concert.

    Norway's infection regulations have been tightened after Christmas so we haven't started rehearsing again. :cry:

    Oh Covid....my daughter (ER pharmacist) gets her 2nd vaccine dose today which has me feeling somewhat relieved. However dear son-in-law came home from his college coop experience Friday with symptoms, got tested, waiting to hear results. Really ready for this virus to be defeated, sigh.

    Barbara - I never figure out I'm cold and not eat. This is one reason I am struggling to lose weight again.


    I am tired but it's not a physical tired it's a mental tired. I just can't bring myself to do what I need to do for anything. I get through the work day, make supper and just want to curl up and do nothing. Maybe once physio starts working and I'm not in so much pain I'll feel more like myself.

    Machka - I liked the page of the photos. Beautiful!

    Lisa - The scammers are and thieves seem to be doing a great business, I don't get it either.

    Kelly - My daughter threw the stoppers out of the sippy cups too. I still have the Tupperware sippy cups that don't have any of those for Michaela (5) , she drinks out of glasses when we're sitting at the table, but sometimes if she takes a drink in the living room I'll put it in the Tupperware to slow the spill. Not that they have been able to visit since November anyway.

    Allie - It will be wonderful to be home. Do you know when you have to have the next surgery?

    Julie - We were told by our Administrator that we can still pass the virus on to others even though we are vaccinated and that we could still catch it, but it would just be a less severe form. I don't think anyone knows for sure, we are all learning as it progresses including the professionals.

    Penny - One of our staff that had Covid, said she misses her sense of smell and taste. Maybe you did have an infection of some kind.

    Well I should get to work.

    That's right, Heather. So far not a single case up here. All of Norway has had 59,000 cases (about 1% of the population) and "only" 525 deaths (1 per 10,000 citizens). The beautiful scenery isn't our only blessing.

    Have they decided what to do with you - another surgery? waiting for replacement parts?

    @Mrs_Hoffer Welcome! You've joined just by jumping in, and we're glad you're here...

    Allie
    So glad you're going home and a double transplant is off the table. Thinking of you, chicken...

    Forgot to answer this question! So, the answer to how I get clients is that I don't, Verblio does. Everything you write is submitted to the clients through their interface. You never have to talk to clients (yay!). Pay is on a sliding scale - the longer the article you're writing, the more you get paid. They pay through PayPal... I wrote for them years back and was able to step back in at Level 6, so have access to article requests in the 1,000 to 1,500-word range, which pay well if the customer buys them. When I bump up to Level 8 it will get even better. Requests for posts/articles range from plastic injection molding to personal injury lawyers needing stats research and verbiage, to driving revenue through improving human resources processes, to finding a small business grant. I only write on the ones that interest me, so my wide-ranging curiosity is getting satisfied on a regular basis.

    Love y'all,

    I was just reminded of how fit I was 30 years ago! I would go to aerobics twice a week, karate twice a week and do Jane Fonda’s workout in between! This while working full time in a mill where I needed to constantly move and raisin 3 kids!! Must be why my body is in such bad shape now! Lol must have destroyed it in those years! Lol

    KJ “ Goals for this week:
    Move in the evenings
    No food after 6pm
    No alcohol for the time being
    Cardio daily” can I steal your goals? I need to do the same things!

    Did a body pump video. I’ve decided that I don’t like the ones put out by this one gal. She talks too much, advertises too much. Work tomorrow so no formal exercise

    Then went to the dentist for my routine cleaning. Nothing new here Then to CVS for a few things

    Tracey – I can’t wait for spring, either. Glad to see the sun out earlier and earlier

    Chin ups – I can do them…that is…with assistance!

    Lisa – I’m so sorry that happened with your credit card. What a pain!

    KJ – thanks for the info about the sippy cup/regular cup. I asked Denise if PJ was drinking from a regular cup yet (he’ll be 2 in May) and she told me “no, kids don’t start until they are 3”. I seem to remember my kids were younger than that. Personally, I think it probably would be better if Denise would introduce (at least) PJ to the regular cup.

    Whenever Vince goes to the MD (he’s on Coumadin) they always want him to go on Eliquist and he won’t do it. He feels that we know the long-term effects of Coumadin. Besides, he’s been on rat poison for so long (almost 30years) that a few more years won’t bother him. So he needs to go for the blood test? He feels that’s a small price to pay

    Kate UK – wonderful that you got those slots!

    Dandl (is it Debbie?) – positive thoughts for your son-in-law

    Teresa – we’re ALWAYS taking new people. Welcome! Vince had a very hard time when he turned 67. It really bothered him. It didn’t bother me when I turned 66

    Just got back from getting my first COVID stick. In all, the process took, at most, 25 minutes (including the 15 to be sure you don’t have a reaction). <cry> I didn’t get a cute Band-Aid, just a boring beige one. I even got a boring “I got the vaccine” sticker. Well, that’s no big deal, as long as I got the vaccine, I’m happy

    Jennifer – CONGRATS! It’s not surprising that you lost even tho you were higher on calories. Sometimes we need to “trick” the body and change things up

    Allie – glad to hear you are home. Just think…you’ll be able to see Alfie more
