Spend tonight above your stairs A B O V E

Hi Ladies! Just a quick pop in to say hello :) So, 2/3 of us had the flu 2 weeks ago :( I started it and DJ quickly got it. Luckily Austin didn't get any part of it! It wasn't what I would call the flu for me--started with an annoying nasal drip in my throat, then not sleeping because of the coughing, then just exhausted…

Happy New Year Ladies! Can't believe it's 2018 already! Sorry I've been so bad at keeping in touch but my teenagers keep me busy. We have a hate/dislike/annoyed with me relationship at this point. Seriously sometimes I think my breathing annoys them :neutral: I read the report that Marcie's dad sent and I wonder if she had…

Hi Ladies! Good news-- the stinky culprit might have been found! I googled stinky sinks and they said to make sure and clean the dishwasher. So I ran 1 cup of vinegar through the 'hot 1 hour cycle' and the smell seemed better. Today I ran more vinegar again and so far the smell is gone! I sure hope that was it :) The…

I'm checking back in to finish my thoughts from earlier :) Something in my kitchen stinks! Seriously, I've cleaned the trash cans, the garbage disposal, checked all the cabinets for food but can't figure out where the smell is from. I did notice that the Keurig was used and it was full of hot chocolate left over--I cleaned…

Hi Ladies! I'm trying to check in more but for some reason I forget about it until my days off. I don't forget about you all, it just the logging in to my fitness pal that slips my mind until I'm ready for bed. I did think of something that I forgot to tell you. Austin got his Eagle Scout! He made footstools for the…

Hi Ladies! Just checking in on you all! I hope everyone is good, it's really hot here and isn't fall like at all :( It was 93 today and going to be like that all weekend. I love the cooler crisp weather! DJ is at a harvest party and they are planning on a big bonfire but I don't think many kids will want to be around the…

Sheryl--I saw something that said she died in her sleep. I wonder if her blood sugar got too low and that caused her death. We may never know for sure it's just such a shock! Even after two days, I just keep thinking she's going to post soon! She and you kept the WC going! I'm glad you had such a nice drive and that John…

I sure hate to check in with such bad news but knew you all would want to know. Her poor dad has to be just heartbroken! If anyone hears anything else, I'd like to know.

Hi Ladies! It's been a while and I hate to have to tell you this but I saw a post that Marcie died today (Thursday) while getting ready for work. That's all I know but 2 other people posted it also. I am so sad about this and just wanted you all to know. Marcie was a very kind hearted person and even though I never met…

Thanks, Ivanek! He's enjoying it ;)

Sheryl--thanks! He was thrilled and we have two cars. Mine and their's!! :)

He did it! Passed with flying colors :)

Hello All! I am still using MFP but haven't been checking in here as much. When I checked in, I had 85 posts to check!!! SO, 85 posts later, here I am. Not much going on here, my hip was doing great, I added in a exercise (the PT and MD wanted me to try it) and it made my hip hurt almost as bad as when it first started one…

Hi all! Long time no chat :) I've been busy but not with anything special :/ We had a bad storm and I'm still dealing with the aftermath of one of my trees losing 3 giant branches. I made the mistake of trying to lift the limb off the electrical line while it was still raining! :( I didn't realize that the 2 other limbs…

Both of your projects look great Sheryl! :)

Hey all! Well, I just lost my last thread! UGH hate that. I worked all weekend and was a eating machine :( I don't know what flipped my 'overeat' at every opportunity switch but it has been on all weekend! Pizza, ice cream, double stuffed oreos and that was just the beginning :( Sheryl-- so sad about Christina! Hope she…

Hi all! Sheryl--When no one answered about the blinds I figured that no one had on-line experience with it! I've sent in my $$ and they are going to be ordered and should be here in about 3 weeks. I just want them replaced--like you, I don't change things that much. If something works, I just leave it until it falls apart…

Good job, Cookie! I always want to poop on my bills :wink:

Ivanek, Thanks for the info about the blinds! Since the other ladies never mentioned it, I figured they hadn't ordered on line either. I decided to go with the 'Love is Blinds' guy for the front window and will just do cheapy mini blinds for the boys rooms. My front window is a weird size and needs a 2 on 1 setup (not…

Thanks Marcie! I'm going to try it :smiley:

Hi Ladies! Just popping in to check in :) I'm doing well but have been having MFP logging in problems. I had over 200 days of using the site and I couldn't log on last week and it booted me back to only 5 day streak :( I know it's a silly thing but it irritates me when I try to use it and can't! Nothing new happening with…

They are adorable! :D

Great pics, Sheryl! :) I wanted to swim in the pool but maybe not with the geese!

Hi All! Gosh I've missed checking in with you all! We've been so busy at work and my hip is 'iffy' at best so I've been coming home and really resting every night. The boys have finished up school and I now have a Junior and Freshman in High School :smiley: I still have trouble wrapping my head around the fact my baby will…

The wedding pics are lovely! The cake looks great :)

Happy Easter! Been busy but hoping to check in soon :smiley:
