Good morning! Interesting post!! I can see where the rest of Illinois could benefit by splitting from Chicago. I thought it was a crazy post..till I read it! I would vote it in if I lived outside of Chicago, oddly enough!! ;) Believe it or not, we had a lady who worked at the hospital, ( very good nurse), who had a car…

Val, Like those kind of days for you!! <3 I like to scout out places ahead of time myself. :) I think I am playing hooky tomorrow! Just need a day for not moving!!! :# Have a great day!! ...Jan B)

Good morning, My first part of the day went well. I guess I should never had left the house! :# I did go shopping and my shoulder hurt so bad I was just miserable and off. I tried to get in a parking space the wrong way...no way that was happening. Some guy was trying to help me out like he was a traffic cop. I know he was…

Good morning!! Our humidity is slowly going up. It was SO nice..like living in a real world instead of a sponge. :D By the weekend it will be a memory.. How far away will the Dr. be for you to drive, Roger? He sounds like he will be a good Dr. to work with. Hopefully the news will be more on the encouraging side.. I do…

Good morning, So glad the fire was not any worse. It was an oddity about the towel. It's always something!! Val, so glad this day was more uneventful!! I can imagine Em not wanting to go to the ENT. I wonder if what you both are experiencing has a genetic element..Really proud of you and your new routine!! <3 Roger, sounds…

Hello!! Roger, I am so sorry to hear this news. I am sure you had hoped for better. Why had you suspected this ? I am glad they have given you someone to see so quickly. I wish you the best getting settled in there with a good Dr... I am surprised your Dr. did not have to make the appt and referral, or did they, and you…

There's no place like home!! <3 Good luck for later on, Roger!! :# (test results?) :)

Hello!! Hope your Mother's Day was a good one, Val!! You are a great and capable Mom for your daughter and furry babies a like!! <3 On the beach today after awesome storms rolled by. At one point lightening must have connected to the sand as we could smell it. We were watching it all unfold from our balcony. We then had…

Hello!! Roger, so glad you can have plans to get to your results. That is half the battle. :) We were lazy again today! Enjoyed the beach and had an early supper. Walked home on the beach side to our room. I napped and when I woke, sat on the balcony with a cup of decaff and actually enjoyed watching some college age kids…

Good morning! At the beach! We are really tired just getting here! We checked in and sat on the balcony and talked. We went for supper and got into our pj's and just stretched on the bed and talked more and read minion jokes and read our books. We were tuckered out. We are beach side so we can see the gulf and waves from…

Val, sorry to hear of your work troubles. That is terrible for you. Sadly, that is today's work effort by many. Wish you were having more positive experiences!! At least( Em's) meeting you had went well!! <3 Thanks for the input on the washer,Roger. It did not leak this time... :D Sure it will again. Not at all ready for…

Good morning!! Nice day again. It was like pulling teeth but I did get out into the yard. It is looking better but a slow go, and I have a big yard, lol.. I am enjoying being more on the mark than I usually am. Just need to get out there a little every day. Rain for the forecast will be good for the weekend as I can not…

good morning, I did better today. I was a little over my calories but not by much. Better than I have been doing. I really did little today. Caught up on some business and some wash. I was just too wiped out to do what I wanted. If i get too tired, I will not be able to get ready for the weekend, so I did not want to push…

Well, ####! I just lost my post by trying to look up spelling on a word.. :/ let me try this again... Good morning! We are having nice weather now. It is supposed to storm the weekend. That is when we are going to the beach, lol... :D Leptins ring a bell, (sterols collect them?), but I think I am confusing it with ghrelin…

Long Sunday. Took the afternoon and evening to just chill. That was nice. It is cool and in the 60, and so pleasant after the heat and humidity. Guess it may not last too long.Still reading some of the articles. Funny how we all are on the states of bad lists!! Hope everyone had a good week!! ...Jan :#

Hi! Good to hear from everyone!! Good advice for Roger. I second that Val!! You should get some extra credit in the universe for that job Val!! Lots of poison ivy in the yard. Weird because I have been here like 20 years and it is the first it seems growing in perfusion.... Those keto recipes look good Roger!! I am cooking…

Good morning! So awesome about the bear Val!! I love you love your treadmill!! Hope all your results are good news or at least helpful!! keep going!!! <3 Roger, that was some surgery! It will take a little bit to bounce back. The more care and time you take to heal, the better things will be in the long run!! Just rest,…

Roger, sorry you lost your tracking days again!! I keep forgetting to commiserate!! ;)

Good Morning! Well. May.s barking continued. I figured a snake for sure. But no, It was our box turtle who had made it to the otherside of the back yard, but was still trapped by the fence. So I moved him away from the fence to a clearing. still heading in the direction he wanted to go. He was a cute little thing and stuck…

good morning! What a day! I thought May was doing her snake bark. It turned out her turtle bark is the same. I had a about a 7x7 inch turtle in the back yard. Luckily he could not get thru the fence so he was safe. I thought he was dead because he was all buried in some leaves and it had been in the eighties. I was afraid…

Good morning! I was kind of tickled about the description of you leaving with your brother, Roger... :D For as early as you had to be there, you could have been flying to Paris! LOL...Hope they took it easy on you!! I love starting the mower..it is like magic. <3 Val, I am so sorry about the cauterization again. Is it the…

Good morning, Hoping all your tests go well, Roger. I just rested today. Afraid I did not get much done. Pretty sure my unit secretary job should have been listed under worst jobs, lol.. Lots of stress, low pay and awful hours. I did enjoy when things worked well however. Val, hoping your tests go well this week also. I…

Good morning, Beautiful day. Sunny and warm. I was hobbling from all the yard work. Hope I can get out some in the morning though. :# I had bought a greenworks 17 inch electric mower. I would think you might need a larger one for a yard though. You would be making a lot of passes with the 17 inch! It was cool starting it…

Morning! Well, my mower worked like a charm. It cut for about 2 hours, and worked like a pampered bush hog. I was surprised and pleased. I recharged and worked about 1/2 hour, but was tired. It is not a huge area, but filled with overgrown ivy and tree saplings and lots of both small and large limbs down. I hasn't been…

Good morning, Roger, it is REALLY nice to have you back. You were sure missed!! Guess you spoiled us. For us it seemed like the return of a great habit that is reading your news and posts and being inspired. Please do not overdue with us.. Now you have "checked in" make sure you do get your rest!! Val sent you her phone…

Ditto on what Val says! You scared the heck out of me!! Val was much more level headed . :# Now that we know you are safe, feel free to take all the time you need to rest!! Sounds like a huge and scary, painful ordeal. So glad it was taken care of immediately!! :) <3 Get plenty of rest and sleep. You are in my thoughts and…

I find myself the same way! It does not seem to start the days without his posts and news! :| And you know me, I haven't figured how to post pics here, even with Roger's instruction, lol..something always befuddles me and I can not get thru the steps, lol...I tend to forget to check out snopes!! I should more often!!! I…

Val, Did you have Roger's last name? :|

good morning, My post from yesterday is not here...I really thought I had seen it before I posted my food.I guess I had done something wrong, it seems lost. :| Hope your Easter was restful and you are improving from the ENT visit. I am so thankful to be home. The Easter week end was really busy. Several things from church.…
