WOMEN AGES 50+ FOR NOVEMBER 2021

Grands got sent home from school yesterday, with coughs and a HOME, rapid CV test?!? WOAH! Didn't know there were such things. DD compared it to a home pregnancy test. (with some obvious distinctions) Swab up both sides of the nose, dunk in the solution, open the testing "flap", close the swab inside and wait for "one" (neg) or "two" (pos) lines. Both were negative and they can go back to school today! WHO KNEW?!? No more racing to the airport (where our testing center is) and waiting 4-6 hours for results! WooHoo!

Minicooper- we are able to get those free from the pharmacy. I have boxes of them!!! Used them twice.

Had a lovely lunch with G at the Persian restaurant. Then walked up to the school to pick up Bea. Wended our way home very slowly in the cold. Now getting ready to walk home. My legs are VERY tired for some reason.

Love Heather UK xxxxxx

Thanks everyone for the shout outs! Much appreciated!

VICKI i'm so sorry about your friend passing.

BETH that lovely energetic dog doesn't sound like a great match. If he is reasonably young i bet he's easy to find a home for. Some youngish people would be thrilled to get an energetic lunk of dog.

Hi everyone have I missed the link to Dec thread

Kate UK ❤️

I don't think she posted it yet

Been skimming to catch up. We had our youngest daughter, son-in-law and their two dogs for a week. Loved having the company but was exhausted by the end.
Kelly- I sure hope you don’t get sick. Did you disinfect everything? It is surprising how many vaccinated and boostered people are getting the virus.
I will try to stay caught up now.

The vaccines don't prevent you from catching the virus ... but they will likely prevent you from having serious symptoms.

I think the hope is that with everyone vaccinated C19 will become like the common cold.

This next week will be good protein wise as I got a roasted chicken, some jumbo shrimp, and more beef kielbasa sausage. Veggies chosen were a yellow onion, spinach, two tomatoes, and a small head of cabbage. Treats were artichoke bruschetta, coconut/chocolate things with chia seeds and dried fruit and my marshmellow with molasses cookie treats. I will make more wild rice cups to put in the freezer. Forces me to only have a small portion. I am prepped and know what to expect. No surprises👍🙃😊. Have yet to get photos from daughter in law from our visit.
I didn't take any photos as I don't have a camera, nor did I carry my tablet around.
My son and daughter in law got settled in quite quickly, and by the 25th, when Lee and Galen drove down, were hanging stuff on the walls. Athena seemed to adjust very well. Her room kinda the same placement, but a bigger room. Their living room is carpeted so lots of family wrestling can go on.💖👍
I think they appreciated me there to help watch Athena while they went to get things, and on Wednesday they spent most of the day cleaning their old apartment.
Its nice to be home though. Even managed to lose 1 lb on my trip of uncertainty eating, some snacking, and soda now and then. I eyed my portions and stuck to 1 or 2 meals a day. No breakfasts though, (except those two days of donuts and coffee).🙃😂
Can you believe its Dec tomorrow??? Lee and I getting our yearly flu shots. Something we schedule every Oct or Nov.👍
hugs ladies!
