Hi ladies, Dana, I’m sending good thoughts Lisa’s way. I totally understand why her mom is worried. And to have returned from Afghanistan and then have something happen here. Life is so confusing sometimes. NYKaren, thinking of your too. Janet, Yeah! More baby pictures. Congratulations. Campfireque, Welcome and congrats on…

Rye, & Lanette , I did the hardware jewelry a couple of years ago and sold some at a local craft show. No future plans to have a website for them as I’ve been concentrating on the chainmaille. I’m sure I have some left over and I will check and see. Anyone interested in seeing what I have left just [send a private message]…

Rye, I love them too. Also, office supply stores. Unfortunately, my DH has a Masters and is working there. Did I ever tell you all that a few years ago I was making jewelry out of hardware items like screws, washers, and ceiling thingies? They were fun. Rita, hope you feel better soon. Heather, glad you have something to…

Hi ladies, Barbie, love the gate. Can’t wait to see final pics. Ginger, can I join your family and go on the “sister retreat”. I’m like a sister. Sounds wonderful. What great memories you will have. Machka, I think it is so important what you are doing. Talking and repeating is the best thing for him right now. (((Hugs)))…

Allie, you need to be taking that anti depressant girl. Probably why your in a funk. I know I can’t go off mine or I just slowly spiral down. Time for you to get back on track. Welcome to the newbies. Glad you wanted to join us. Tell us a little about yourself and what you would like to be called. There’s a lot of us and a…

Rebecca, so sorry to hear about your husband's aunt. I agree, if you needs med, take them. Felicia, You didn't offend me at all with the pics. Your son is so lucky to have your acceptance and support as many don't. They do make a cute couple. Looked like they were having fun. I'm so glad you felt this was a safe place to…

Hi ladies, Got on the scales today an up 12lbs since December. Yikes! Wake up call. Have to get back to onederland again. 10:00am and so far so good. I’m taking it hour by hour right now until I get back in the groove. Lisa, sounds like you are coming along with the book. Good job. Snoopy dance for the weight loss. You go…

Heather, got your book yesterday and already a third through it! I love your style of writing. I couldn’t write that well if my life depended on it. Well done girl. It might just hit 50 today. Yesterday was beautiful and warmer too. I had the door open while I cleaned and was so nice to air out the house after a very long…

Rebecca, nope nothing wrong with not eating what your husband does. My DH’s tastes are different from mine. I’m a plain Jane and he likes savory spicy things. A lot of times we fix our own dinner. Allie, you sure have been rough on your body these days. Hope you feel better soon. Sgm1138, welcome to the group. Well got the…

Allie, I use bio freeze on my back when it it sore. You can get it at medical supply stores and chiropractors usually carry it too. Heather what an inspiration you are but don’t feel you have to always be strong. Allow yourself to be sad about the road your life has taken. It’s so hard and it’s ok to feel overwhelmed. With…

Hi ladies, Kim, congrats on paying off a loan. It’s a good feeling. Hellcatt, welcome to the group. Machka, sounds like things are progressing slowly with your DH. Good for you going back to work and moving forward. Glad you had a friend there to help. You are so strong but remember to take care of yourself. (((HUGS)))…

Hi ladies, Trish, cute kids! Karen, a new baby, how wonderful. Heather, where can I get your book? Kelly, you are super woman. Your family is lucky to have you be someone who is willing to put in extra. But to keep going, you will have to take some time for yourself. I’m like you with plants. I only have one at home which…

Hi ladies, too far behind so just jumping in here. Health issues within the family have me spiraling so had to let some things lapse. DH going to see another heart specialist and also a neurologist for circulation in his legs. DD still suffering from anxiety attacks but working now with dr and in a couple of weeks a…
-
Machka, sorry to hear that you are having anxiety attacks. DH & DD both get them. DD is going to see a counselor to help her to learn how to deal with them. DH already sees someone. Hope you feel better soon. I’m not surprised you have them given what you are going through right now. Was glad to hear DH has been moved and…

Allie, glad you are feeling better. Kim, ouch! Lisa, can’t wait to see pictures of the new place. Wendy, retirement here you come! Hugs to those that need them. High fives for those with a job well done. Thanks for all your continued support. Working my way out of my blues. Hope to get a date for my MRI tomorrow. Can’t…

Good morning ladies (and it is a good one for me today), Feeling a little better today. Thanks for all the virtual hugs. My mind seems to be in a better place today. Partly because I have no more "bad" food in my house now. So didn't over eat last night because there wasn't anything tempting. Hoping to get the date for the…

You are such wise women and full of such good advice. I appreciate all of you. Almost in tears at work today. For weeks now all I’ve done is screw up. The more I try to be careful the more I screw up. I think most of it is me being too hard on myself. Years ago I went through something like this so I know it will…

Hi ladies, Mary from Arizona, thanks for the offer. I think at this point I need to keep to myself and not join another group. That’s how I did it last time and it seemed to work. Machka, I’m sure the long walks are helping with your stress. Good for you taking care of yourself. Becca, so glad you are safe and sound in…

Hi ladies, Not much to say except I’ve gained about 11lbs and just heartbroken about it. Really struggling. Did great today until I came home and then all he!! broke loose and I ate everything I set eyes on. Could just cry. I was doing well until the holidays and when I went off track I never got back on again. Got to get…

Snowing again!!! I’m going on to bed. Terry in VT where I don’t think spring is ever coming :/

Lanette, yes I got the orthodic and it’s better than the over the counter one I was using. Ankle still hurts when I walk too much or twist my foot. Not sure when my MRI will be. Where I work has a benefit where if you have a test like an MRI and you schedule it with the most inexpensive place around, they give you a small…

Lisa, you must be so excited to finally be days away from getting on with your own life. What might help the little ones is a book read by grandma after she leaves. You can get children’s books where you can record you reading it then the child pages through while listening to you read it to them. Should be able to find…

Physical went well. Dr was happy about the weight loss. Going to have my blood work done next week and depending on what that shows will determine if I can come off any meds. Fingers crossed. The small itchy rash spot I had on my hand turned out to be ringworm! I said “where the he!! did I get that”? Guess you can catch it…
-
Heather, I breathing a sigh of relief for you. You were so thoughtful when handling this. Because of that, you got the positive response you were hoping for. I’m so happy for you. Sitting here at my GP’s office waiting for my yearly physical appt. Hopefully no surprises. Left work at noon today which was good as everything…

Allie, I think it’s a wise move consulting with a financial person. Good luck. Machka, good for you letting yourself have a meltdown. I bet you felt better afterwards. I always do. I say do whatever you need to in order to get through this. Sounds like things are progressing. (((Hugs))) MRI has been scheduled for April 25…

Lanette, I agree, we all to sign our posts now as we cant rely on pics so much any more. Meg, as an adoptive mother I feel your heartache. The year my DD graduated from high school she got a letter from her birth mother. She wanted to just run out and meet her. I cried all night. So I decided that since she was an adult…
