    I stumbled across something that I felt the need to share. There’s a scam of a grieving parent that wants to give away something that belonged to the child that passed. It is said the item is for free. However it will be said after contact that shipping will be needed for the “free” item. That is where the scam is. 

    Please be careful. Do not fall for this. To confirm it, I did an internet search for mom giving away a PS5. The scam popped up everywhere in the suggestions.

    @fabgeekmom I believe it . Yes, I really thanked my past self for cooking that stuff! Enjoy the cottage and your walks. Good job! Dinner sounds yummy.

    @vegan4lyfe2012 Thank you ! If I make more, I'd be happy to send you one FREE! They aren't expensive to make and you've sent me so many beautiful cards, please let me send you one! Well, you can always do a 30 day scary movie challenge in November! I'm glad you saw the doctor and the med worked on your leg cramps. Yay for Oliver and Brayden doing better! I'm sorry your DIL's parents are like that. What a shame. I'm so glad you can go and support your son and baby Amelia. I will let you know when I get my card, I can't wait!

    @bobboyardee Good job ! Big hugs, Drew.

    @Cornanda Congrats on the loss !

    Hi all. The pet rock workshop for our students was yesterday. At first, nobody was showing up, but they all came at once right on time. Lots of students, it was very popular. I'm glad it went so well and nobody made a big mess lol. I am debating if I want to go to the gym since my back is still hurting. I don't want to make it worse, but I also don't want to skip a gym day. If I don't go to the gym, I may go to the coffee shop and either read or do artwork. Today is my work-from-home day and I'm glad for that.

    Water intake yesterday: 40 oz

    @vegan4lyfe2012 Oops, I knew that Brayden was a girl. 🤦Great news that the kiddos are doing better. I do hope the new med helps control your leg cramps. I know how painful those can be! I’m sorry that there are issues with your son’s wife’s family. Nothing is more lame and sad than to make race a negative thing. 😠

    @19shmoo69 I HATE scammers so much!!! 😡 My sister was telling me how she read about a mom of a newborn baby getting scammed about the missed jury duty, just like I did. She almost drained her bank account just so she could protect her baby, just like I did trying to protect my dying husband. These scammers need a special place in hell for sure!! 

    @trooworld I’m glad the pet rock workshop was a hit. Do be very careful with your back and lifting. I was doing deadlifts yesterday, and by the time I got to the third set, my back said stop, and I stopped. 🙂

    Good morning! Yesterday was busy with the pastor coming over to do church work, and then my bestie came for coffee. I did manage to do a good workout. Today, I’m going shopping to try to find something presentable to wear to Joe’s memorial service. Have a good day! 🙂

    My husbands been looking for a new truck for the past few weeks. We found a trail boss. Took it on a 30 mile test drive to our bank in the next town over. Returned to the car lot with the check and signed the papers. Less than a mile from the car lot the transmission went out. My husband had to put it in low gear to get it back to the dealership. The sales guy tried to get us to us our warranty to fix the trans before refunding our money. Then, we found the truck, clean, one owner, very low miles. They let us take it home over night and the next morning we took them the check and signed the papers. So, we took another spontaneous road trip. This time we went 3 hours south to the Covered Bridge Festival. When spent a couple day down there and put almost 700 miles on the new truck with no issues. We did some shopping and some exploring, looking for these bridges. We're back home now. We had a couple tree jobs. Now, I'm planning a trip for next week to upper peninsula Michigan.

    Hi 👋

    Just popping in for a quick update. I had a great birthday, there was a little pampering with my sister, and then dinner out with family. Almost my whole family was there. It was awesome. I'll share a few pictures later.

    I'm feeling about 75% better, so it's time to get back on track. Start working on my habits and working on moving more.

    Life is good and I'm thankful to be alive.

    The weekend isn’t a write-off.
    It’s not a waiting room for Monday. Every meal is a fresh start.
    Every choice is a chance to show up for yourself. If you’ve been struggling to stay on track, try slowing down. Do less, but do it with intention. Even small steps in the right direction still count. You don’t need to be perfect. You just need to keep going. You've got this!

    @TeresaW2024 Thank you ! I decided not to lift this weekend, I don't need to make it any worse than it is! I'm sorry about your back. I hope everything went well yesterday, and you found something to wear.

    @Veta2018 I'm glad the return of the truck worked out and you found a good replacement . There's something so pretty about covered bridges. Nice pictures!

    Hi all. My back is still killing me. I decided to take the weekend off the gym because I don't want to make it worse. I've been using heat on my back. I may try ice today. I slept horribly: I had coffee as planned, and it apparently affected my sleep. It usually doesn't. I slept about 4 1/2 hours, at 2 am, I was tired of laying in bed trying to sleep so I just got up. I came out to the living room and tried to sleep but got up again for good at about 3. I am going to a chalk festival today. Later tonight, I'm going to my book club meeting. I made some Halloween-themed bookmarks to give out to the attendees.

    @DrewsAnna Happy birthday!! Sixy looks good on you! 🤩

    @micaroo4 Love your morning motivation to us! Doing things with intention is such good advice. I do got this!! 👍

    @trooworld Do you know what is causing your back pain? Is it the lifting, or maybe your mattress? Your plans for today sound like fun! 🙂


    Good morning! Well, I went shopping, tried on a bunch of clothes, and ended up buying nothing except a pair of flats that might work with my stupid bunion. I was so mad at myself for gaining so much weight and felt like I looked horrible in everything I put on. I came home and ordered several shirts from Amazon. If they don’t work, then I will go to Belk, which did have a few tops I liked well enough. All I know is that I have to get serious about my weight loss. I’m giving myself some grace since today is one month since I lost Joe, and then on Monday it would have been our 15th wedding anniversary, and then next Saturday is his memorial service. 😢 So, lots of emotions for sure, but I seriously don’t need to be eating my feelings! I’m off to work out! 💪

    @trooworld - The chalk festival sounds interesting. Is that where artists draw 3D pictures on the sidewalk?

    @DrewsAnna - Happy Belated 60th Birthday. I'm glad you enjoyed yourself.

    On some days, my fingers are swollen and my rings fit tight. So I never got my rings resized. Well, I lost one of my diamond rings yesterday. I'm glad it wasn't my wedding or the one I got from my grandmother. But, I'm so sad about it. Today we get to pick up my grandson for the day. I'm going to take him to the mall and let him run.

    I hope everyone is having a relaxing Sunday morning! Getting ready for the week ahead or just chill. I’m hoping to get my weeks assignment done early today to relax or get some things done around the house.

    @baodell17724 Congrats on the loss ! Great exercise hours, too.

    @TeresaW2024 It's neither of those things : I have degenerative spine disorder, which is likely the cause...it is a loss of the cushioning and support between the discs in my spine. There is no cure or reversal of it. :( I'm sorry about your shopping experience. I hope the Amazon stuff works out for you. I feel you on the bunion: eventually, I'm going to have surgery on my ugly bunion!

    @Veta2018 They do ! The artists create the chalk art painting right in front of you, it's pretty cool. It is a free festival, but there are also paid things like wine tastings and food. We didn't end up going though. I'm so sorry about your ring. I hope it turns up somewhere in the house. That sounds fun to go to the mall with your grandson!

    @gemwolf110 Congrats on the loss !

    Hello all. We didn't end up going to the chalk art festival; we didn't feel like dealing with the crowds. Instead, we went to the coffee shop and read. We also went to a mini-book fair. I bought just one book. My book club was fun: everyone loved the bookmarks, and they took almost all of them. My husband and I got takeout for dinner: poke bowls. Mine had lettuce instead of rice. Today, more hanging out at the coffee shop, and later, I will do a tiny bit of food prep.
