Congrats on your last day, Lou!!! Just a few more hours and you are OUT.OF.THERE! I'm glad the dinner went well, Lee. Hopefully people got their questions answered and fears calmed. It's beautiful and sunny this morning in Michigan! Cold, but beautiful. My plans for the day are up in the air ... I have a few options and…

Good morning, all! It's been a busy week. My dear friend came Wednesday night and stayed over ... I LOVE this woman! We had a fabulous, meaningful, amazing time together. I wish she could have stayed much longer, but I am grateful for the time I did get. Jim ended up travelling to Iowa during that time, but he was home for…

Skip, Jim got the 11 Pro ...he loves it, too! I want the camera. My 7+ doesn't seem so awesome anymore. Wow, Lee! Your fishing trip sounds challenging! And exciting! 6 foot waves? I'd be exhausted, too! Mary, what are you doing for the 4 day weekend? Anything fun? Have fun with that insurance stuff, Dennis .... ugh. If Jim…

Raine, tell Tom to stop by and I'll feed him. :) 2 hour walks every morning? Wow! Steph, you are truly an inspiration! Enjoy your home-day, Lee. And thank you for the information! We do our best with our 4 legged friends ... I hope they never hurt. Lily is currently sleeping on my leg, which seems to be her favorite spot.…

I need a lesson from Raine and Lee. What can we do to prevent cancer in our pets? I honestly have no clue, but I want to learn. I love art in the parks! Have fun, Steph! Be inspired! (((Lou)))) ... I'll bring some duct tape for you. Sing pretty, Dave! Rest up, Dennis. I hope you're feeling 100% again soon. It's quiet here…

Whatcha doin' in Roanoke, Skip? I love your attitude, too, Kelly! I've found that big changes happen when we realize that we are truly happier when we are on plan, treating our bodies with respect, having indulgences but not overindulgences, and pursuing a fuller life more passionately than a fuller tummy. Your girls night…

Sam, I hear you on Revelations. And I am VERY leery of people who think they can explain it all ... I don't think anyone is capable of that, honestly. And I think that's the point. I think that what I'm supposed to get out of Revelations are some grand points: * He's coming back * There is a plan, and I can believe that…

Wow, Lou! Those pictures are AMAZING! How gorgeous! My nephew and sister have gone there, but they didn't post pics of the things you are. I'm so glad you're having a great vacation, Kelly! Soak up some rays for me, too! YAY for your friend's dog, Lee!!!! He must be SO relieved! As for Dd28, it's like her light came back…
-
WOW! Sooooooooooo awesome!
-
((((Raine)))))) The feeling is mutual. :)
-
Oh my goodness, she is GORGEOUS! Wow! Love that smile and those eyebrows!
-
I believe you, Lou! I'll vouch for ya! Have a GREAT trip, Kelly! Rock that bikini!!! How was the fishing with Little John, Lee? You could be Robin Hood! And now I'm whistling the tune from the Disney version of that. That's all it takes. As always, THANK YOU, Skip, for reaching out. You are so kind! I'll update you all at…

What a whirlwind of a week! It began with church and my 6 year sobriety birthday, which was filled with so much love that I was bursting. Then last night Dd28's post-partum depression kicked in full force, and we ended up driving to her place in Grand Rapids, picking her up, and taking her to a facility. This is the 2nd…
-
Happy happy happy BIRTHDAY!!! I love that you're spending it retired in a tropical paradise!
-
Not much happening here. I slept in, and am now awaiting my grocery delivery. Church tonight, and the songs are super-easy. Last week the sound system was all messed up and we got no sound through the main speakers. So, we had to hook up additional ground speakers to our monitors, because we were getting sound out of…
-
I am NOT ready for summer to be over. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!!! Keep the pontoon out! Steph, what a cool thing to be woken by roosters! That's way better than an alarm clock, I'll bet. Enjoy dogsitting, Skip! Last night was SO MUCH FUN! Oh my goodness! There were literally thousands of people who came by the window we posed…
-
That's so beautiful! Serene!

Raine, I'm loving watching the pics on fb! You look so happy! Steph, congrats on your new home! How exciting and adventurous! Dave, WOW. Just WOW. I'm in awe. Skip, how was PT? I've heard that's not a fun process. Lou, I'm pullin' for you to fight this thing off! Rest and nutrition, my friend. Enjoy the lake, Mary! That…
-
Mary, your home looks INCREDIBLE! I love all the color! Skip, I really think they should at least give you a discount at that brewery. So today I have my regular morning workshop, and I'm taking over another evening one. I've heard this is a small one ... I hope I can build it up enough to survive. At least it's September,…
-
HA! I can totally do the Elaine! And I might have done it a bit, too. ;) I had a GREAT time! I worked my tush off and am wiped out, but it was worth it. The decorations were just right, the comedian was the HIT of the evening, everyone seemed to have fun and talked and laughed and got silly together, we danced, we sang…
-
GREAT progress on your home, Raine! I love watching new constructions come to life. Mary, I'm picturing us now driving your new pontoon across Lake Michigan in 10 foot waves, tossing our cookies over the side. :smiley: Maybe you'll just need to come here to check it out? But not this weekend ... we'll be out of town. I get…

I'm so happy for you both!!!
-
I'm so glad they found their kitty, Lee! They must have been frantic! I hope you find time to breathe, Skip. Take care of you! I agree - Lou's a good guy. Dave, the bowl is stunning. Mary, did you have a good day today, even with the rain? Sometimes a little forced down time is a blessing in disguise? Reading a good book…
-
Raine, STAY SAFE! Will Jack be doing any work there if they need disaster relief? Lee, decreasing your calories sounds like a smart plan. Or, you could increase your activity, or best yet, do both. Maybe you could find some simple swaps for some things you're eating that are a bit lower but still provide volume? Like a…

Happy Saturday, BBB! It's been a crazy-busy week. Wow. Between the concert, friend-meet-ups, meetings, workshops, planning for next week's reunion, and getting everyone and the dogs ready for last night's family pictures, I've been burning the candle at both ends. We have the next 2 days free of obligations, though, which…

Steph, my members tell me this is the place to go: http://www.thesaltedcupcake.com/ I was reading through their daily offerings, and now I'm drooling. Congrats on that loss, Lee! What did you do to create such great results? Since my reunion is coming up, I'm tracking right now, too. Gotta look good, right? Ha ha! Good for…
-
I'm so sorry, Mary! That's absolutely horrible! Wow ... GREAT bike, Raine! Good songs, Kelly! On the monitors, Jim has 4 on his work computers in the home office. He says it's helpful. Keep us updated on your thoughts about the offer, Lee. :) Steph, I wish you could come to GR! Shoot! My members always talk about a bakery…
-
I'm the worship leader ... I organize all our services. :)
-
Congrats, Steph! How EXCITING!!! Kelly, you can come sing with me some Sunday night! Really!!! How FUN would that be! Lee, did most of the others stay on with the new location? I'm glad they found an alternative! Good to see you, Raine! I miss you when you're not there, but I understand ... I'll bet things are pretty busy…
-
How frustrating, Lee! It sounds like the breeds need to use separate grounds for trials. Skip, I'm cringing at the Crocs thing ... but I am certain that if anyone could pull 'em off, YOU could! I've been fine ever since Friday. So weird! I did have a complete blood workup a couple months ago when I was having those heart…
