Thank you Barbie, for doing all that you do.💖. I can't remember how long I have been posting. Long time! Not too long after husband had lived transplant, and that was in 2014. I consider you ladies all family.👍 💖Rebecca Whidbey Washington

Ok all you that get up before the rooster does, as Norwegians would say, " Good On Ya", but that's not me. I normally get up at 7 am if I need ta wash my hair, or 8 am if I dont. We were on the road at 6am this morning, got to University of Washington Medical center in 1.30 hours, great time. Home not so much, it was 3+…

Up at 5 am! Uuugh! 💖Rebecca

-Yvonne in TX. We transferred him to University of Washington medical center because its 2 hrs one way. OHSU in Oregon is 6+ hours one way. So not doable, even though we like them better. Plus our normal staying at Lee's family isn't doable because his mom has moved into a smaller place. Our middle son's place is out…

On Friday we have our yearly trek to Seattle, for husband's liver transplant checkup. Sooo, much fun....not. Wish we could video chat with doctors from University of Washington. Its a feeling I get when we go, they're handling his file, but their not vested in actually caring for my husband. I mean this hospital didn't…

bananasandoranges, just for pleasure. Many put a lot of money into stickers, washi tape, and stationary. Then they make their own envelopes. I bought a cheap 500 ream of college ruled paper. I have some washi tape but its from the dollar store. For me its not about how the letter looks per say, but what they say. I love to…

Its so freeing to not be the caregiver of some one else's stuff! I had each son go through their stuff and with the eldest son, "Mr I Have To Save All My Toys Since Birth", we rented a small storage unit nearby and paid the first couple of months. After he graduated from boot camp he put it on a automatic payment plan,…

Well I think I bit off more than I can chew with my Pen Pals business, but I will give it a go! I currently have 19 people I'm writing! Crazy! I have been writing most of the afternoon. I had my ear buds in, listening to acoustic guitar, William Ackerman stuff, so its been relaxing. I have 2 letters done, but I have 10…

Work up to drizzling rain, grey skies, and in the 60's. Fall has come to the island. Was not interested in going to the gym, but my Chief is so darn funny, and upbeat I pulled my self up and out. Workout was good! So we are home now, and my body is warm from the sauna, and humming! Excited about lunch! White sticky rice, a…

Rori, great job on the bath! Even the cat looks proud like she did all the work! Haha! 💖Rebecca

Vicki GI NE, nope, she is far from newborn now! My son said today while he was playing with the dogs in the apartment, and they were growling, they heard a growling sound come from Athena! They stopped because it was such a surprise. Their bigger dog went over to Athena and she laughed! The first time that she's ever made…

I used cinnamon sticks and bay leaves around my kitchen where I saw ants and they left. This was in Oregon coast apartment. It looked like an old wise gypsy woman resided there!😁 💖Rebecca

I too believe that my vertigo episodes do more to my head than I realize! I did not have any yesterday, and slept so good last night. Eldest son needed to get his van repaired, so he dropped it off on Friday, husband went and got him. So we are without our car until it gets fixed. So just going on walks today for exercise.…

Regarding ants: we are blessed to have a pest control service with our new rental home, so the service comes every month. I have noticed little 1/2 inch long caterpillars, here and there so they must be coming thru the window panes. Living under all these tall trees most likely. No ants though, and thankfully no bats…

Oh so sorry LisaI When I see a new pic of Athena my heart just melts! My thriftiness is just a way to organize my meals! My breakfast was just a youngest meal replacement shake, an orange and coffee. For lunch is ravioli and I will add spinach. Afternoon snack is a baby bell cheese ball. Dinner is a lean cuisine pizza. I…

Today was shopping day! I bought yogurts, and meal replacement drinks for breakfasts. I bought fruits for a snack before lunch and after workouts. Lunch is either spinach and salmon salad, or lean cuisines. Dinner is lean cuisines too. Bought 2 pizzas, two turkey with dressing and apple cinnamon dessert, some pasta meals,…

I am feeling sore, tired and a bit beaten down. Trying to get out of this funk! I just miss my youngest son's voice! Been since April, he last called.💖 💖Rebecca

Katla, It is a real scooter. He puts on his helmet and zooms away! 💖Rebecca

Athena and her sweetness! 3 months old now! My eldest son's scooter he built. Like he doesn't do enough building with his job as a helicopter mechanic! Then when he isn't rebuilding engines, he's building Legos! Love that kid. 💖Rebecca

Katla, My portion of a cabinet, is my food. Its easy to eat the same things, especially for breakfast. Its the one thing I can control in my life.👍. When I look in the other kitchen cabinets it for son and husbands meals. Then I just play chef! 💖Rebecca

Thanks ladies for the kind remarks about my thriftiness.😁 Its really easy to do. After bill paying, I have a total that I divide by how many weeks there is. So this month its running about $160 per week I can play with. On my shopping day I go thru my pantry and see what meals I am working with, what items I need. Like…

Hello! When I read your post I had to add, "we are all success stories even before we lose the weight". Its giving yourself permission to put yourself first.💖👍

Okie in the TX Hill Country, we asked him what kind, and its is what he said.👍. It really pumps up the volume of the frosting when you use a beater! I added maybe a 1/4 cup milk too. If I had some Bailey's I would've used that!💖 💖Rebecca

Ah we aren't old Janet, we are wise!💖 💖Rebecca

Just made a yellow cake with chocolate frosting. All store bought mix, and frosting, but I did beat the heck out of both so the cake felt very light, and the frosting mousse' like! Its my eldest son's 30th Birthday! He is presently at a car show, then afternoon he has to report in because its his duty weekend. On duty days…
