Hello sweet pea! Glad the MRI is done and went well....and hope you get the results soon. That's my favorite dressing as well. The sweet onion is another...both Ken's. The Vidalia onion one is so good on coleslaw as well. I have a vast selection in there...but do have a new bottle of the vinaigrette in the fridge. I've…

Good morning...again! It's a beautiful day blooming at my spot. I got up at 3 AM after 3 days of being a slug and sleeping in. I got to pet both cats as I fed them this morning. Oh joy! I'd missed them for 4 days, either to their absence or my sleeping in...it feels good to be up and about. We are to have 92 on Friday and…

Oh yes! We are looking at a week of those warm days before the next cold front hits. I was chilled tho...even with the 87 outside. I love my comfy , warm blanket...and the new fan! LOL Oh this isn't the new one! It's the old one, I thought had crashed and wouldn't come on....then when unplugging my cords, it came to life!…

WOW....we are expecting 87 on Monday! Oh my...I love it!

February 1: 240.2: -5.4 for January: Hoping to lose some non yo-yo weight in February!

Oh yes, indeedy! I got the burner pan, stove and skillet cleaned up yesterday. Still need to scrub the bottom of my new skillet, as the flames blackened it. I was glad I didn't panic...and make more of a problem! Thank you...I love them all and even bully boy was beautiful....I haven't seen him in a long time now. Sister…

Oh no! How frustrating....I hope you get that sorted. I rarely use my phone, as you know....but it needs to work when I do use it! The only time I've had trouble with mine was 5 years back when it crashed and I lost all contacts and my FB set up and have no idea what my pin is to access voice mail so I don't. My last one,…

Ours is the local news etc....and I still watch The Old and the Listless sometimes. I've been known to forgo that and take a nap. I like Lester Holt on the nightly news at 5:30. I do watch some of News Nation but when all the political claptrap starts as it always does...I am done. If I could give up my home phone, I could…

I hear you! I'm glad for spellcheck....as I miss a lick quite often. Doesn't help if it's an actual word tho. I think of you when I think of chicken chili, Kim. I have a couple of packets of seasoning for some in my stash drawer....need to make some. I still have a couple of chili and my container of cooked pork in the…

I did! Wow....I was so grateful for God's strength for that chore! Shhh....it was 3 weeks worth! As I was preparing to get it done...I prayed for God's help for the big, big job and said "but YOU...are a way bigger God!" It was all I got done actually, except to finally get some rest. I am feeling much better this morning…

Hello Ladies...I've been lurking about...just laying low for several days. I need an infusion of strength and stability and major pain relief. I had a rough night last night with very little sleep so my nap today will be most welcome and refreshing. Natasha's kids were exposed to the flu and woke up sick this morning so…

Thanks Marilyn! I found paperwork with the 1st on it but not the 8th or 15th...so will go with this. I normally weigh in on Sundays. Started January 1 @ 245.6 Today: January 25 @ 243.4

Yep, you and Sharon have the same taste somewhat in foods. I've mentioned before how she would eye my lunches and say..."that looks good! I wouldn't eat it but it looks good"...yes...that's pepper...I had a handful of frozen pepper/onion blend left and tossed that in and the stewed tomatoes. I use a lot of that pepper…
-
I love cabbage! Stir fried, steamed, boiled with taters, onion and smoked sausage....or coleslaw. I had more of my soup for lunch. Dinner was a hamburger patty and fries in the air fryer. I have one serving of soup left and I put the pork I'd set aside for BBQ in the freezer. I have 8 ounces...so that will give me nice…

Hello Ladies....I am happy to only see snow a coup of times during our winter....We had two bad spells the past few years, dealing with plumbing, electric off for 4 days, work shut down a week but only because we had no power to work anything! I am so glad those days are behind me and Marilyn, your story with Norm is a…

Prayers for you, sweet friend. I'm sorry you are in such pain. I can imagine how good that feels! Wow! 130! Gee whillikers! That's too hot for this old girl... I have a new heating pad in my closet somewhere and need to find it. I have my Mom's blanket with arms in there too. The cold wind comes in around the door and…
-
That's very good, Kim...and sadly true of so many families. Those we love and expect to love us in return can hurt us more than anyone else. I've been laying low for a few days, doing only the essentials, hanging out inside where it's cozy. Prayers for you with heating issues. I get full sun on my door/windows so much that…
-
That is a strange thing, that the sites most affected get no attention, requiring more MRI's, more pain and frustration. I'm so sorry you are dealing with the current issues. You remain in my prayers. We have another lovely, sunny day here and 56 at the moment. I'm feeling sluggish and ragged today....Our high dollar cable…

So true! My heart hurts for those who spend their entire life, never accepting Jesus as Savior and knowing such love and real joy. look at the devastation going on right now, in California and around the world and the displaced multitudes. So many are lost in evil doing....and so many innocents suffer. I did a rest day…
-
Good morning! ...and it IS a good one. I rested well last night (2 in a row now) other than an acid reflux episode which woke me and sent me to the recliner for 3 hours...where I can nap comfortably. I feel well this morning and am not suffering from my hard labors of yesterday! That's new and different and such a…

I am so very thankful I can hibernate all winter if need be. I think I gave away my spikes after I retired. Falling terrifies me and my last time on the ice, I couldn't get up and lay there yelling for help until Mary and two guys came to get me up and the bosses showed no concern or care at all. My heart and prayers go…
-
LOL! Yes....you have my routine down! I did 5 of the 9 and my kitchen is cleaner than it has been in a year...Counters uncluttered/wiped down, microwave cleaned, dishwasher run and done, decluttered the table and a couple of baskets....vacuumed. Hooya... I always feel so good when things are in order that it's worth 2 days…
-
Never mind! I just realized with the oversized, bendy straw, I can drink from it fine, regardless of which side it lands on. LOL...Mine is red. Did I mention I love it! I just got my bed made again. I slept on it last night without sheets. Not the first tine that's happened. I was just so weak and in such pain, I did good…

I'm glad you were able to get back to TOPS, Marilyn. You are moving along well! Thanks for doing the weigh in page. I normally weigh in daily but post on Sundays but started a new chart on the 1st so my weigh ins will reflect that. I was at 247 on 12/29...so that was my highest and I hope I never see it again. I got my new…
-
Marilyn, your post brought to mind something from many years back. I had plated my meal, needed a veggie, dumped some cold green beans from the can onto my plate...actually was sitting at the table...a rarity for sure. I prayed over my meal and before I could start eating, I had a "nudge"....the Holy spirit, I…
-
I will indeedy! I thank God daily for my comfy bed, the blessings that fill my home, for the gift of good rest, quiet and the peace in my place. Kudos! Sounds like you guys are on a good path. I had a bit of a carby day yesterday and it showed up on the scale. Breakfast was egg beaters, 2.5 pieces of bacon (love it) and 2…

Checked the weather to see if it would be fair enough to get a delivery from Wal-Mart. It's currently 22 with a feel of 2! Yikes....supposed to get up to 37 today. I saw my sweet Calico Granny cat....poor babies. I want to bring them inside...or at least feed them and can do neither. My Junior has an injured leg. I saw him…
-
So glad you are feeling/breathing better. That's stressful for sure when we're out of sync. I am so glad to have accidently got the streaming thing in hand. That was stressful for me! That and the pain...I moved my headboard, still boxed up...behind my sofa. That 20 pounds felt like 50 to me. That and other things were on…
-
Oh That's good, Kim. Thanks for posting! I love the admonishment to DO IT NOW! Even in my worst pain days, there is always something I can do. Now that I have my exerciser thing...and a set up for my water tumbler....I can do that and still "rest"...while my legs are going. I have my 5-20 minute chore chart too, that I did…
-
Oh no! So glad your fall wasn't as bad as it could have been. Any at all are so hard on us. I've made sure to keep my 9-1-1 call button handy since my last one. By accident, I am able to stream things! I still don't know what I'm doing but have been on Paramount and Youtube now. I watched a bit of a wintry thing on youtube…
