Its top of the mountain Wednesday! Its all downhill to the weekend from here. That's how I view things anyway! I am so sore these days! Nothing going on except gym, though I did write my Navy son and 3 pen pals. My daughter in law is doing well, life is looking good for my son's little mini family. After my DILs surgery I…

Today is writing letters day! This weekend is eldest son's 30th birthday, but he has duty. I am buying cake fixing stuff on friday. Hopefully its duty where he just has to report in early, prep the birds, then can come home.👍. Not buying him anything, but making some Asian type food, either ramen, potstickers, lumpia or…

Athena looking more and more like her momma!

Hugs to people that need them!💖 I have been binge watching Breaking Bad, I know bad. But its really interesting. Its my eldest son's fault! 💖Rebecca

Do you know that if you buy large containers of yogurt, when you make a serving in a bowl, if feels like a dessert moment? I just noticed that this morning. My cup of creaminess, is three large spoonfuls, and since yesterday I portioned out my snacks, I had 1/2 serving left. So in actuality the package of Annie's chocolate…

Today was shopping day. I decided to buy snacks, and bought some Kashi 7 grain crackers to address the salty, Annie's chocolate bunny crackers for the sweet, Belvita breakfast crackers to have with my yogurt, and York peppermint patty minis for a treat. I bought snack bags and measured out servings, and portioned out the…

Surgery went well with daughter inlaw, and she is in recovery.👍. I do not know if they're keeping her overnight. Son is informing my husband as the day progresses. I think he is keeping communication down to the chosen few, so I haven't been texting or talking to him directly. So today husband and I went to get lunch to…

Yesterday after a great texting session with middle sister, I decided to make a group messenger thing. Its called Strong Warrior Norwegian Women, and has my middle sister, her two daughters ,and I on it. I wanted to be able to support my sister in her plan of getting off smoking, and drinking. So far its nice to see both…

As always I appreciate you Barbie, for keeping this thread going. I don't think you ladies realize how much of an integral part you are in my day to day life.💖. I don't always text, but I take in your positivities! Thank you!💖 Your cat lover, that doesn't own a cat.... Wahhhhh! Darn cat hating husband! 💖Rebecca Whidbey…

I have always liked using those precooked meatballs in the freezer section and just put that in a crock pot with barbecue/ sweet and sour or smoky flavor sauce. Just let them simmer until the sauce is in all in them. Put a container of toothpicks next to the pot. Maybe potato salad on a casserole dish sitting in ice…

Thanks ladies, she is my little angel. 💖. I guess that little chair can turn into configurations.👍 💖Rebecca

Athena in her yoga contemplation pose.💖 Hugs all! 💖Rebecca

Katla, I hear you on trying to do what's best for husband. I think honestly, if I wish to see Athena it will be busing down there and home, like I did in June. Husband does not like to travel far from home. Holiday traveling is just not fun in general because of the lousy weather. 💖 Rebecca

Thanks Ladies for your views on my holiday situation. Kelly, your solution sounds wonderful, and Thanksgiving IS all about giving thanks. I do have my eldest still here, and so he gets spoiled more. 💖Rebecca

Katla, how wonderful you and Arrow. I kind of have a fear of horses. It started when my sister put me on the butt end of her horse while she was riding bareback. He bucked me off, and had the wind knocked out of me. My dear sister laughed and laughed! He fact that horses can sense your fears, well I know they'd sense mine…

Well I am calmer today, I needed to hear from Navy son and earlier yesterday I stared at Messenger willing it to respond to me! Its crazy how life can work like that. So his ship is officially back in port in Brisbane Australia.👍. Hopefully he'll get some needed off time. When we texted I had asked if he was coming home…

Wholly moses! I have just been texting son overseas from 6:15 pm to 7:20 pm! I am so happy! He's doing well, got the box I sent. Just living the life. I am so blessed that the Navy is treating my sailor right, he's sounding....(does texting make a sound, why yes, I can "hear" the written words bounce off my brain like he's…

Hugs all round ladies! 💖Rebecca

Barbara, the corpsman took the old fashioned way, but I could tell, and feel he was a newbie. I mean most that have done it, put the cuff on higher, tighter, and pump it up to a painful moment. He also didn't put the round thingy right in the pulsepoint at the inside elbow area. He was just wishy washy about it all. The…

Donated blood today on base today. Originally was going exercising, but saw the sign. Got the same guy that did the draw last time. He knows what he's doing, and teaches the other beginning Corpsman what's what. I have a string of a vein, but like I tell them, it flows like a mutha! I was in and out within 25 minutes. That…

KJ, beautiful haircut! I need to get a summertime haircut! 💖Rebecca

Katlaaaaa! Happy birthday friend! You are amazing, so insightful, empathetic, and amazing woman! 🎂🎶🎵🎁💪🙏👍💖💖

Evelyn, from sunny and warm Vancouver Island, In regards to my middle sister, did I tell you that while down seeing Athena, son and DIL, I saw my sister too! She came and picked me up when I had gone to see my MIL. That was on a Wednesday, and we went to her favorite bar, ( she calls it her favorite livingroon), and she…
