Good evening ladies. It's been a good day, cold & gray, but good. We're getting things ready for tomorrow and I'm praying it doesn't rain. My husband set up a canopy for my son to cook under just in case it does rain. Today it never got above 50 & tomorrow it's supposed to hit 70. Later this week we're going to have 80s.…

Hello everyone. It's been a busy week. I'm trying to remember the last time I posted. My daughter had surgery on Tuesday. Everything went good and she's been recovering nicely until today. Back to the doctor this afternoon for a UTI, app aided by the catheter from last weekend. It's been one thing after another this week.…

Hey y'all. Welcome to the newbies. I finished January better than I started. My February goal list is short. * pre-track my meals for each day, make adjustments if needed * Be intentional * make every effort to reach daily step goal Like I said it's a short list but realistic. Well, back to the chores. Have a good…

Thanks everyone for the prayers and good thoughts for my daughter. Surgery went very well. Turned out to be a ruptured cyst that cause a tear on one ovary. The doctor cauterized it to stop it from bleeding. There was a cyst on the other ovary and he drained it. Nothing had to be removed and she's now at home recovering.…

Good evening. I'm writing this from Megan's hospital room. She was admitted tonight after a very long afternoon back in the ER. She's scheduled for surgery at 10:30 in the morning. They will probably remove her Fallopian tubes. She's okay with it. She had two beautiful children and as a single 30 year old mom who struggles…

Hello ladies. Thank for your kind words, thoughts and prayers for my daughter. We got home at 5:15 this morning. Needless to say I did not make church and and still in my pjs. I was going to try and make the evening service but I don't see that happening. Megan came home with a catheter and a leg bag. She is supposed to…

I've been at the ER with my daughter since about 11:30. She called me crying, saying she was having severe abdominal pains. She was on her way home and I told her to go and I would meet her there. When I got there I thought she was passed out in her car. I had to get a security guard to help me get her out of the car and…

Good evening. Just a quick check in. I'm rocking my granddaughter to sleep. Five days on plan. Still lacking on the steps. I don't remember who said it but I like the idea of having a sleeve to put it in so I can wear it around my ankle. I think I will see what I can crochet that would work. Of course it wouldn't pick up…

Good evening. Just a quick hello before I crash. I'm so tired. Four days of planning and healthy choices feels really good. Still not hitting my step goal but making the effort to stay busy and moving. Good news, my daughter did not give in to temptation. She admitted she thought about but came home sober and feeling good…

Re - Happy Birthday!! Day 3 of being on plan is complete. I still didn't make my step goal today. It's been a very stressful evening and I received a text from my daughter that she had been fired from her job. More stress that I don't need. Praying she doesn't stop and get a drink or more on the way home. She's an…

Good morning. Welcome to all the new friends. It's a lovely, yet chilly day here in east Texas. Having a great on plan day so far. I've been cleaning house, doing laundry and stuff like that. At least I was till my granddaughter got up. She wants me to get on the floor and play with Lincoln logs. It ain't happening. I've…

Hey y'all. Just wanted to say I had another on plan day. Didn't make my step goal because I slept in really late but I made over half of it. I probably was closer but I don't wear my Fitbit while cooking. Night y'all I'm beat. Grace in Texas

Hello ladies. Just wanted to tell you I made my step goal today and I had my first totally on plan day of 2017 today. I sat down this morning planned my day and tracked it before I even had breakfast. It was very helpful. I made a pot of lentil soup with ham. I used the mfp recipe creator and it came out to 168 calories…

It's me again. I don't know why but it left off half my post. Oh well. And I forgot to sign off. Grace in Texas

Good morning from east Texas. It's lovely outside after a rainy dreary weekend. Finishing breakfast and getting ready to tackle my house and rack up some steps. I need to make a quick trip to the store for veggies & make a decision about dinner. Tonight I'm teaching a crochet class at my church followed by attending a…

Hello again. I'm waiting for my daughter to get home from work. She's got to tell her boss that her night time babysitter has quit and to put her in days or find a new job. I just got through tracking the rest of my day and I was horrible. Really, truly horrible because I didn't eat one healthy thing all day long. I had…

Hey y'all. I know it's been a while since I posted. I just wanted to say hi before I headed off to church this morning. I have to admit I've done absolutely nothing about eating right or exercising recently. I have been in a funk. The stress levels around here have me wanting to get in the car and drive till I run out of…

Good Friday morning. It's a cold day here in east Texas and it's going to stay that way at least for a couple of days. I haven't been on here like I had intended to be but I have had a busy and productive week. I've been attempting for a while to get my sewing room emptied to make it into a bedroom for my three year old…

Good morning. Just a quick hello. Be back later after I get some things done. Have a great day.

Hey y'all. Just a quick hello before bed. Busy day with the grandkids. I'm so ready for my DH to go back to work and my grandson to go back to school. I'm tired of Christmas break. Hellos, sweet dreams & big hugs to everyone from Texas.

Good evening ladies. It's been a busy day. It's warm and humid here in Texas. I had been out this morning and when drove back into my neighborhood my next door neighbor was on his riding mower in shorts, & no shirt. Yuck. I spent the morning with my oldest granddaughter teaching her how to use her new sewing machine we…

Hello ladies. I've been absent again for a few days. It's just been so darn busy with Christmas. Plus I came down sick with a sinus infection but I'm much better. I've been packing up the decorations today and trying to put the house back in order. I've gotten almost 4000 steps today which isn't huge but I've never left…

Good morning. Just a quick hello. It's been a busy week of trying to finish my shopping, taking care of grandkids and getting ready for the Christmas celebration this weekend. Now, I've come down sick with what I think is a sinus infection. Feel horrible

Hey y'all from east Texas. It's another very chilly day. I've been busy trying to keep the grandkids corralled and busy. I would've sent them outside but they don't have the proper cold weather gear. I slept in this morning and while it was nice I don't need to make it a habit. I need to get up early tomorrow and have gift…

Good afternoon ladies. I've been trying to catch up on what's happening with everyone and all I have to say is wow, y'all are busy bunch of gals. It's been positively frigid here in east Texas compared to what we are used to having. I'm glad we don't get a lot of winter here because I don't think I could stand it. Having a…

Hey y'all. Sorry I haven't been around in a few days. Lots of stressful things have been occurring which has really thrown me off track and I'm struggling to find my groove again. Yesterday was awful. I spent most of the day in my nightgown crying and spent a good part of the day hiding out in my bed. Haven't done anything…

Barbie, so sorry about your Brandy. It's such a hard thing to lose a pet. Hugs I'm on day 6 of healthy eating. I actually woke up not tired today. I can only imagine how good I'll be feeling in a few months. Finished my Christmas decorations this morning. I don't do anything outside but hang a wreath on the door. I would…

I think I typed too much it cut off the last paragraph. I was just saying good night anyway. Pleasant dreams y'all.

Hello from chilly, damp east Texas. I don't think I posted yesterday. It was a busy day and today has been as well. Sherry - so happy things are looking up for you. Y'all are a very chatty bunch of girls. I've been trying to get caught up from Friday and it just isn't happening. I like that. It shows you all are caring and…

Sherry, I'm new here and don't know you or your situation. But I know this, God loves you. He cares about you and the women on this thread care about you. I do pray and will pray for you. Don't go away. Let us support you through this. Whatever the problem is please remember there is always hope.
