Vix, I'm in Minnesota. We have only 2-1/2 acres but there's a 20 acres woods behind us and farm fields adjacent so it give us great opportunities to see wildlife and get wakened by coyotes at night! Jo, that's some list of foods to cross off your list! Hope you test goes well! Roger, if your yard isn't too big that's a…

I bought a new log swing for the yard and I love it! It's wonderful looking out over the rolling land connected to ours! We see turkeys, sandhill cranes, fox, and even a black bear and cub once. I also love watching all of the birds flitting from the trees to the feeders and back to sing away! Now I need to figure out a…

Great encouragement, Suegen! I think I need to get my between meal foods ready ahead of time because I get busy working and don't get them in otherwise. Can't wait to lose the 2!
-
Amen! Well said. Great thread! Thanks, Dottie!
-
Sounds yummy, Peggy! I'll have to try that!

Nene, I'm sorry things are so hard with your father. I understand from a different perspective - someone close to me who shows family so much of the anger and unkindness side while others outside the family see the pleasant and charming. It's hard in another way, too, because others don't see it and just think how 'lucky'…

Joanne, I'll have to watch for the DCI Banks. I really like a lot of the British TV shows, but DH can't stand them, so I get few and far between. Vix, hope that surgery goes really well! I'm assuming it will make walking easier for you? Or is it just to get the metal removed? Roger, you've been doing so well, you'll be…

Vix, so happy you have your long wished for pictures and maybe first steps toward healing a relationship! That makes for a very good day! Glad to hear you're getting things figured out with your health, too! Keep asking questions and even get 2nd and 3rd opinions if you aren't confident in your new doctor. Joanne, glad…

Vix, sorry to hear about the RA! I have read that there are some food choices that can help with it if you are into that sort of thing. Today our youngest son moved an hour north to work and live with his brother, getting ready for college this fall. :'( Sad to have a quiet house, but proud of him and so glad it's just…

Hi, all! We had rain today, just in time for me to not have to water the deck plants! I looked out and noticed the rain pouring off the roof into my tomato planters, digging up the dirt and soon the plants too if I didn't move them. So I ran out there and pulled them all away and was thoroughly drenched! Had to change…

I mean this one! So true!
-
Boy, does this ring true for me! Thanks!
-
These are all so good! This one especially grabbed me since each choice boils down to this!!!
-
Oh, my goodness! These are all so funny! How many calories does laughing burn??? :)
-
Roger-Glad you caught that water before it hit the electrical stuff! Sorry you have to deal with it; guess you got a bit of a workout, though! Joanne-glad to hear you're back on track; early morning carpet shampooing - whew! I'm impressed! :) Vix-yes, I sure do love to see that scale go down! It's never fast enough, but…

Compared to you two, I'm a sleepyhead! I'm up anywhere between 5:45 and 6:45, but I usually relax for a while with a cup of coffee before I start working (from home). Beautiful, albeit cooler, 62' day today! I'm not good with heat - I melt! :) Visited my mother and then stopped by to visit my son and his family. A nice…
-
I liked these, too. Not too sweet but nice and chewy so it felt like there was some substance.
-
Suegen1, congrats on almost on your half way mark! That's an amazing achievement!
-
Vix, that sounds like such a pleasant way to both enjoy a day and burn calories! I can almost smell those honeysuckles! :)
-
What good news for your daughter, Val! A love of reading is such a help for everything in life!
-
You sure got up and at it early this morning! Good job burning those calories!
-
Great progress, Val!
-
Roger, Vix, Joanne, thanks for the encouragement! It feels good to be able to look back a couple of months and say that I'm glad I'm here and not there!
-
Joanne, my mother is doing well. She's back out in the gardens and back to Bible study! Hi, Vix! I'm doing okay! I still need to get back to walking and kick myself at the end of the day when I realize the day is gone and I haven't walked! I know that I'm feeling better already, though, even though I've only lost 15 lbs or…
-
Wow, thanks for the PB2 info! I'll definitely look for it!
-
I agree. This is the only meal that I just couldn't finish.
-
Lesa, so sorry it has stopped healing! I do hope you're able to begin healing again and avoid the surgery.
-
Roger, I'm sure looking forward to that first closet cleaning! That will feel sooo good! Congrats! Vix, thanks for the good belly laughs - the sheep and then the 30 days! Lol! G'nite, all!
-
What is PB2?

One of my sons is bringing over a large beef shoulder to make Texas Clod...not sure what we're in for, but I'm sure it will be delicious which will make my food log numbers not look so good...! Hope to stay sensible! :#
