  • My my, I've missed much... Janet, my heart is with you, and prayers are with you and your family during your time of grief. MaryLynn, I will be praying for your family with the wildfires. So frightening! Cindy, good work on building your brand...it's hard work! I have a cousin who has written a few books. Getting a broader…
  • Hello friends :) as usual, I have some catching up to do. Work has been busy (so much for a slower season!!) I've been quite busy with that, and honestly rather exhausted! I started a new medication for migraine prevention that has side effects (drowsiness, tachycardia, etc). My heart has a tendency to race anyway, and I…
  • Wow, so much has happened since I had last checked in! Prayers are with each of you in your daily lives, in big things and small. Beth
  • Hi ladies! Once again I'm playing catch up...The tooth saga lasted (still lasts), and as it turns out I have been grinding my teeth so much lately due to stress that I've bruised the tissue down deep. But the root and tooth are OK, so...the answer is time and motrin. In other news, I'm back on the exercise (more than…
  • Janet, don't overdo today since you're hurting! Cindy, your pictures are great from your trip! I've enjoyed them. Spectacular! I'm taking a breaking from cleaning to do nothing. I've been in denial about a toothache and there's no doubt there's a big issue, probably necessitating a root canal, but we will see. I have a…
  • Janet, I managed to sneak a few t-shirts out before my hubby woke up! We are continuing to deep clean today, top to bottom and filling bags to donate. And you aren't kidding! The tired has hit but it's a giant exhale of relief! MaryLynn, I just love gardening...we got snow yesterday and today so no gardening for me yet.…
  • As usual, I've missed a lot! I have loved all the pictures that you all have shared! I can't seem to upload pics from my phone but the best part about my Easter was my grandma coming down from 5hrs away, so I was able to spend time with her. We're very close and I've missed her. I last saw her when we vacationed with her…
  • Hello!!! Guess what?!? I survived my long, stressful week (months!!!), and the accreditation process, which was a resounding success! Our site visitors were very impressed with our progam, and called our staff "engaged, trained, and talented" Go Blue! Now that the big work stress is dwindling, I should be able to…
  • Oh....I must check that eagle cam...my kids would love it!!
  • Hi ladies!!! Wowzers, I've missed a bunch! Karla, I am so glad Jason is stabilized. How scary. Continuing to pray for him and you! Cindy, I found you on FB and sent a request! I'm sure glad you are starting to get better! Patti, I know I don't have the history with the group that everyone else does but I admire your…
  • Oops lost half of my post...I added that I appreciate all of your likes and comments in my newsfeed when I complete my diary, and that it does keep me on track, especially right now when it's hard to get through the day due to my headaches. Be blessed...I'll come back again soon ☺
  • Jeanette, I sent a message to who I hope is you on FB, lol. Since we aren't friends it may be in your "other" message box from a desktop. If I had the right person I'll send you a friend request! MaryLynn, catching up on posts and I'm glad you have an upcoming appt but also that you were able to open the lines of…
  • Oh, I meant to say I'm on Facebook, Beth Vibbart. My current profile picture is my whole family (husband, both kids, and me) in black and white. I think I have to change my setting to allow for people to send me friend requests though. I stay connected more on fb since I have out of state family there!
  • Hello ladies! It's been a while...and a rough couple weeks for me. I've been battling daily headaches and migraines and it's gotten so bad that I've sent my neurologist a message to see if we can't either move my appointment that I have scheduled for May 3rd up, or at least try to adjust my meds in advance of that. The…
  • Oh and I meant to say I hope that everyone is healthy or on their way there-Cindy! You especially!
  • Hi ladies!!! Sorry it's been a little while since I last checked in. I'm in the process of reading about those of you with hurt backs, amazing trips, honorary ceremonies and the like....won't be able to stay awake long enough to personally comment to each of you but I'm thankful for your continued encouragement for me!
  • Hi everyone! It's been a busy week for me so I've been quiet. Too far behind for personals but the weather has been crazy. Windy last weekend, which caused some roof damage, and a snow storm yesterday and today, which prompted daycare to close early Wednesday and to close today, and the public school to close today and…
  • PLEASE KEEP MINE THE SAME. thanks! Beth
  • Good morning! Quick check into ask Myra to keep my goal the same for next week. Back later.
  • Shoot, missed the last page (one my phone) Suzi, very sorry to hear. My condolences as well ❤
  • Myra, haha, well, sometimes I can keep up, other times there's no chance at all! I agree with MaryLynn that you have a gift of encouragement! MaryLynn, you're very sweet...I very much agree that as women we need encouragement on this journey. I very much appreciate the encouragement you all offer! Ok, this weekend in a…
  • Jeanette, I will be praying for your family! Custody issues are so difficult. Janet, dinner with your friend sounds like just what you both needed. Karla, the piyo workouts are a combination of yoga and pilates, which is good for me to strengthen my core since I injured my back about five years ago, and it randomly flares…
  • Hi ladies! You're chatty! I've restarted Piyo, which is another beach body program (Like 21 day fix ), and am on the first week. I haven't been logging walks for exercise but I've been logging the piyo workouts. I forgot how much I like it! I'm behind on personals and tired tonight so I'll try to come back tomorrow for…
  • Way behind in personals but wanted to say thanks to (Janet or Jeanette? I don't recall who recommended ginger tea). I was sipping on it today and I'm much better. It seems to build up over time as far as stress goes, then it starts to get to me. Karla, Izzy is adorable. My daughter loves Paw Patrol, too! Diane: wow, what a…
  • Quick check in from me. I'm at work but struggling from stress related tummy trouble I think. I'm not ill, I have a sensitive stomach (and IBS), and after prolonged stress it starts to get to my belly. Ugh. Oh, Bert, I have 21 day fix. The workouts are great. I haven't don't the meal plan though. I was planning to restart…
  • Bert, I will surely be praying for your former principal/friend. So sorry to hear of her cancer struggles. Karla, thank you- very excited to have another UofM fan in my midst, so meeting up with Janet sometime would be great! :) oh, and I think my son would flip out if our Wii quit working! He does have limits placed on…
  • Janet, always fun to have someone know the area! We are in Toledo quite frequently, because we have a zoo membership. My husband prefers the Toledo zoo over the Detroit zoo. Anyway, glad the GI cramps have subsided. Be well. Diane, it's amazing how inspections create an air of tension! Have a great weekend with the baby…
  • My new goal for next week: 80 OZ WATER DAILY, 6 WORKOUTS, TRACK EVERYTHING
  • Janet! I live in Brighton but work in Ann Arbor for U of M, and BLEED maize and blue! I'd love to meet for coffee when you're in town...as you might tell from my screen name, I love coffee! ;) hope you're feeling better now! Patti, sorry about yet more car trouble, but I'm glad you have a friend who is a mechanic and so…
  • Janet, you're very kind! My kiddos are so happy. The best stress relief :) Oh, and yes, I work at a large University and Health System. My university has five institutional review boards, and I work for the largest of the five, the biomedical board. All FDA regulated research comes through our office at the University.…
