  • Barbie - this just popped up in my FB feed 😁 Lanette 😎
  • Machka - thank you for all of the info on the International Space Station. For some reason I thought there was a period of time when there were only the 2 of them up there. I knew 4 came back. Sounds like Boeing's return vehicle had to go to the shop for the "check engine" light and they couldn't come up with the part. 😁…
  • Flea - what time did you roll through my part of the state? I was on I-5 heading north this morning at 7 to shop. Where are you staying up in Seattle? Queen Anne, Ballard, Fremont and Fishermen's Terminal were my old stomping ground. (Pip's too as I recall, a few years after me.) It's probably changed a lot in the past 25…
  • MFP Weekly Check-In for March 24, 2025 RVRita in Roswell NM - Weight stayed the same this week. I’ll take it! Better than going up! Still not up to my usual activities, but watching my intake of food. Barbara on the Southern Oregon Coast – Avg WT eked down three tenths of a pound to 132.8, avg steps inched up 200 steps to…
  • Still catching up - 😉 Rori - sounds you were at the perfect place to pass out. 😁 Hopefully it's just dehydration, as you mentioned. Good idea getting a check-up from your primary care provider. Thanks for keeping us in the loop! Tina - is your DH able to walk unassisted? I think getting dizzy after bending over - then…
  • Rebecca - I've been thinking about your friend who didn't want to engage after her performance. Had you been in touch with her - was she expecting you? A friend sent me photos of the group that got together on my 50th reunion. I wasn't there. I didn't recognize many of the folks at all — and a couple had been my best…
  • Flea - I just spotted that little creek and waterfall you have on campus. Beautiful, I'd love to have something like this in my back yard. I'd really never leave home! Lisa- I neglected to add that if you do decide to run for a public office, you'd be great and they'd be lucky to have you. 😁 Just ran across your latest…
  • Rita - thank you so much for sharing your experience with Dry Needling. Hope you like the new doctor/NP and they take you recent labs w/o a do-over. Ginny - thanks too for your experience (and that of your friends) with Dry Needling. Sending hugs and prayers ad heaps of good wishes your way for your upcoming surgery. Lisa…
  • Mo - Sorry to hear about your hip and falling. I agree, sometimes the best way to deal with getting these meds is to actually show up in person and get things taken care of while you have someone's attention. By the way, that adorable athletic granddaughter belongs to Carol but I'd be glad to claim her! Seems like her leg…
  • Barbara - so sorry to hear about your friend! (((HUGS))) Looks like your suspicion that something was terribly wrong with her was on the money. Perhaps deep down inside, she was worried about the aftercare that would be needed as she recovered from the surgery after living alone and not being out around others for years.…
  • Allie - Glad to hear they've identified the problem as a UTI - are they going to keep you for a while? Hope the bleeding has stopped for good. Tracey - angora rabbits in the basement? They are cute little fellas that's for sure. Mine needed constant combing and trimming, but gorgeous. I make a "Lanette Lasagna" at times -…
  • MFP Weekly Check-in for March 17, 2025 RVRita in Roswell NM - Weight down 1.7 this week. All I did was not eat sugar. Easy way to lose weight! If I get a sugar craving, I eat fruit. I will have to monitor my glucose levels now. I know it must be going up because of the last couple of months. Things are more settled now,…
  • Carla - sounds like a wonderful time at the convention. I always loved the samples and freebies at those events, way to score! Glad you made it home in one piece, that must have been a scary time. Lisa - very excited to hear of your cruise plans! Fits right in with the "Good Ship Murder" theme this week, lol. Happy you had…
  • Lisa - gorgeous yarn. It was a similar skein of yarn that eventually led to us buying a farm. I didn't want to pay the high price for unique yarn so bought a spinning wheel and decided to make my own. Then I had to source the wool. Found some at farms nearby that also had critters for sale. So bought some angora goats for…
  • Lisa - 🛍️💰🧶🐿️🐿️🐿️😀 your post today is making my brain work overtime. Trying to decipher the hidden message here, lol. 😁 Rosemarie - the Audubon Society sounds like a great opportunity to explore nature and meet people. My sis and her DH in Indiana have been members for a long time, and every spring they have a huge garage…
  • Barbie - I thought you might like Good Ship Murder. 😉 Not sure how I ran across it - there are probably other gems like that. Machka - I'm sure the high heels contributed to my foot problems, tho I only wore them regularly for a decade or so in my 30's. They weren't real pointy but they had 1 to 2 inch heels. Dr. D says I…
  • Kylia - getting away to visit your brother in Maryland sounds great, a nice change for you. Interesting about that practice in Detroit cancelling your DH's appointment — not taking out of state insurance I'm presuming? More medical insurance whoop to do…I found out that my Medicare supplemental insurance carrier, Regence,…
  • Machka - congrats on the new job, so glad it's permanent and you can stop the resumes and interviews, as you mentioned, and get on with better things. Beautiful ring! Also thanks for your foot history. Interesting how many of us have foot problems - my mom did, but I don't recall other senior age gals ever mentioning…
  • Machka - so, so sorry to hear about your foot problems. I hope you can see a podiatrist ASAP. When my foot doc told me a year or so ago to cut the walking way down, possible stress fracture, THAT got my attention. Was your DH worried that you were late? The power of nature - I've been watching an Andrew Huberman interview…
  • MFP Weekly Check-in for March 10, 2025 Debbie in Napa Valley CA - Staying the same at 150.4. Barbara on the Southern Oregon Coast – Avg WT back up to 134.1, avg steps improved to 5451, line danced twice, BB&B once, skipped dog group, too late to tally AF, CI, sugar and dog walks. Sue in WA State - I have had a good week.…
  • Kay - so sorry to hear about your former neighbor and friend. You absolutely deserved some key lime cheesecake. Barbara - the reason the Monkey Puzzle is treacherous is that the little "leaves" you see in the photos are actually very firm with sharp points. Think of it a a blackberry vine on steroids. They could pierce the…
  • Carol - your grandson is very handsome with his haircut. Looks very capable in the driver's seat. He is sure growing up fast. Heather - glad your Ex is doing better and you heard from him. Will he have to remain in the hospital for that dialysis? I think I got him mixed up with your brother who had the cancer surgery. Last…
  • Re - You are doing a great job with the low carb, I really think it's a neat option. My own DH passed away a couple years ago and since then, it's been easier to keep the sweet stuff and junk food out of the house. During the last year of his life, his appetite waned and I did everything I could to get calories into him as…
  • Lisa - I almost forgot - great job on the half bath, wow! Chip & Joanna Gaines, move over for Corey and Lisa! I just took a walk in the back of the property to scatter some birdseed. Discovered the treacherous Monkey Puzzle tree is dropping seeds. 🙄 If anyone wants some, let me know. I found a website that tells about how…
  • Allie - hooray!! 😍 When will they send you home? Ginny - I haven't heard of any bird flu in my area. I do keep on the lookout for dead wild birds. Pam in WA - welcome neighbor! There are a few of us here in WA. 😉 Ladies - don't forget! Lanette 😎 SW WA State
  • 🤩Happy Birthday Debbie and Machka! ❤️ March was/is a popular birthday month for sure! Especially this week. Rosemarie - glad to hear you are making great progress with your lawn and other projects these days. 😉 Allie - gentle hugs for a successful surgery coming right up for ya. 🤩 Barbara - that restaurant with the…
  • Beth - are you folks going to get a "tile guy" in to do the shower work? I'm sure you'll be so glad when this is done. I would not do well with this extended disruption either. Hope your headache is subsiding for good. Rita - sounds like a lot going on with your kids these days. Crossing fingers your motorhome plumbing…
  • Carol - great job with the house walking. 😉I've been at it since October 2023, and was carrying up to 5# weights after each meal, was doing 5 minutes at a time, and "pavement walking" as well. Last spring it became clear that I was overdoing it when my foot flared up and the doctor put me on restriction steps (under 8000)…
  • Barbie - I was going to post a reply and "quote" your post above, but looks like the ability to cut & paste & shorten it up is gone. I'll keep looking though. I thought spoiler was gone but found it in the "paragraph" symbol a couple layers in. I agree about too many faces and symbols to choose from, really miss the small…
  • Kylia - yes, this new format is a challenge. I'm looking for the "preview" which seems to have disappeared. These tech kids can't leave well enough alone! Ginny - sending (((HUGS))). I'm sure your presence in helping your SIL deal with your DB's failing memory and health is very, very much appreciated. The English pub…
