  • Oh Wow! Power of suggestion? I truly hate those episodes. So glad you got home in time. So far…I've had lycra shorts (tight legs) on or leggings….when I've lost the battle. One time at work, after hours, when I had to make a run out to remove an over lock, I had a horrid accident…had to clean me up and the bathroom…and…
  • Thank you for the giggle! The "Good Girl" spot! I do agree, I'd set up housekeeping there for awhile! Birthdays: My Mama kept up with those from neighbors to celebrities. LOL…Me…not so much. I get FB prompts for my friends and my brother's was the same as mine, one year apart. My stepdaughter, Laura's is either tomorrow or…
  • I was thinking just yesterday , of your birthday and wondering if I'd missed it or it was coming up. Enjoy your outing and a good dinner! I managed to get my trash out, deal with the dishwasher…pick up my meds and HEB order and had tummy turmoil before I could get away from HEB…prayed all the way home! This is now 6 times…
  • Me too! I loved the picture and the verse is a favorite. The promise of His rest and gentle care…. LOL….yes! I find myself saying of my old school chums when I see them on FB…. "gee….he/she hasn't aged well!" Honestly I recognize very, very few of them! That mat scrunched up, looks like a taco holder. I might use one of…
  • Wow! Great list! Glad to find a lot of plus signs in my rather solitary life! Love it….
  • Boo! High hopes were had that the new meds would do some serious relieving of major pain. Yes…trusting the Lord for HIS answers and relief…no matter what. He knows what's going on and why, each day we are given. Continued prayers for you my friend! Thank you…and praise God….for the major relief I am experiencing…I believe…
  • Kim, I don't really track anymore…it was "fun" when we had Sparkpeople…but I found Fat Secret to be lacking in correctness and many things weren't accounted for so now I just aim to watch calories, am NOT doing a good job on the sodium levels at all….I do much better when I actually cook things but that doesn't happen…
  • My cabbage was a petite! LOL….I got only 2 "steaks" and a handful pf scraps from it. Will definitely add onion to the veggie pan next time. I cooked the two thighs about 15 minutes too long so it was dry…
  • I was super sleepy all day yesterday and had several naps as needed. I did rest lots…and very well! Got up this morning at 3:30 and am feeling good. OH! Sharon used to tell me that and I did the same with my Mama….(calling 911) I prayed a lot and God relieved my symptoms in about 10-ish minutes. I do keep the button at…
  • Good morning! Another lovely weekend is here. After working weekends for almost 23 years, my free days are so enjoyed and appreciated now! I would love to have the bunnies energy and stamina! I had a good, solid night's sleep last night and got up at 6 AM. Feels more normal and very refreshing. Thanks for prayers on my…
  • Thanks Love! i had been doing edits before so that was new and different! Sometimes it's a word or few I catch after posting….like now instead of know. Others…i want to add a PS…It's all good. I rested very well last night except for tummy turmoil for a couple of hours. I'm OK this morning. Got up at 4…ready to roll. I…
  • Went to edit my post and got a message: "You need the Vanilla Comments Edit permission to do that"…LOL…oh well I did drag my carcass to Walgreen for my insulin, traffic was too heavy to dart across the street to Sonic so made a right and went to Taco Bell….someone there isn't earning $20 an hour. Got no hot sauce tho I…
  • Love the reprieves we get. It's been about 5 years since I did dishes by hand, back before I got the new dishwasher. We thought my old one was leaking and it was my neighbor's bathroom, leaking into my kitchen when they took a shower! Now, I'd have to do them in stages like I do changing sheets on my bed. I do sit quickly…
  • Good morning! Yes it does! I love such things too…yet don't care to cook much just for me. I do love turkey and stuffing especially and will consider getting the wings and thighs this year from HEB, and some stove top stuffing. Our Meals on Wheels is in rather dire straights here, with help and donations being down. My…
  • He's a friendly but frowny reminder! It's on my list to do. I hear you on the restful yet productive day and it's possible to have both. I didn't get out yesterday so will see if I can manage to do it today. I really struggle with the walking/driving things so have to make me go out when needed. I'm always glad when it's…
  • Well that's weird….it showed up….after my nap. LOL…so it's a repeat mostly. I thought this was lovely!
  • Oh my! You have way more irritants than I do with mail! I've only had 2 episodes with deliveries…one a load of groceries and another, the night stand…both showed up as delivered but they weren't delivered to me! Both were resolved by replacement. I hope the insulin thing is resolved soon. Normally I only pay $105 each…
  • Ack…my post is missing! I had to google where to look for the password. It's on the bottom of my modem which is highly wired and hard to get to, hard to see…hence the magnifying glass and flashlight. LOL… I can't remember what all I said…mostly repeats of the rest VS pain thing yet I am feeling better with a lesser degree…
  • Oh my…I have had a really rough day…pain wise and otherwise…awake all night and no caffeine involved. Awake from 11 PM to 7 AM…. Having great pain but I did sit too long….have an insurance issue…my Dr. and Walgreens are on it. The sub for the Tresiba is 2069.79 w/o insurance so we know that's not happening. Sent messages…
  • Oh yes! Praising God for this report, Kim! Hoping this line of defense improves the pain as well as the inflammation. Quickly and with no tummy troubles. Yes to my stuff as well! God is SO good! I feel much better today, rested better last night and tho I was awake from 1-3 AM, I got up for real at 6 so was much better…
  • Oh wow! That's so frustrating. Give it a name and go on your merry way? Hope you get proper answers and good care…. I was in such sad shape today! Very fatigued, in a lot of pain, getting the trash out was a repeat of last week where I was so weak and struggling to breathe, that the 120 or so steps to the car and back had…
  • I agree…It's now $243 a month! Nobody else offers the land line phone (that I can hear), no one else offers cable…only streaming services of which I am still less than comfy with…there are other internet services but they are stand alone or offer the streaming? They push the envelope for sure. I still have Vexus dunning me…
  • I was back at 249 this morning. Sigh….I'm going to try a snack sized dinner….and see how I fare. Jeans…I don't think I've even had any since about 2001. I got the reminder text for my Optimum payment, due the 10th and they have jacked the price up another $34….Insanity! They give you pretend discounts then add more. They…
  • Good morning! I did manage to get a nap and get up at 6 AM…so am good to go. Our days have seemed to zip by of late! We are a week closer to Heaven. I thought of you when I saw this… One of my favorite verses and one I go to in my times of turmoil…now days, not working…I can lay down and rest, knowing His mercy carries me.…
  • Wow! How neat is that? I had neon and black skirt Tetras, pearl and gold Mollies and two Corydoras I named Sam and Oscar after guys I knew. I knew little about aquariums other than the fact I loved them. Well, that is good news. We much prefer simpler answers to our assorted issues. I'm up at 1:30…got up at midnight. I…
  • Prayers for a positive outcome on the Dr.'s visit and meds needs. I still do either Tylenol arthritis strength or the mix, 250 mg with 125 mg Ibuprofen added. I've been taking them only once a day of late which is an improvement. I am very happy for the relief I am having with the sit bone pain. Pain is about half of what…
  • What a nice outing for Wade's birthday! I'm glad you were able to go and enjoyed a nice breakfast out. I put my car on the list of things to do…like Dr.'s appointments….as far out as I can get. She needs a bath and clean out, oil change and fuel additive. We aren't required to do do the annual inspections any more so she's…
  • Yes indeed! May many be drawn to Him and saved in these last days. I had a rough night Friday…was awake all night so slept too much yesterday and was really achy. Hoping to get on track today. I rested better last night…and even tho the pain is still bad….it's to a lesser degree than it was so I praise God for that! I eat…
  • Oh I hear you! (and Wade)…you can sense if not see…the eyerolls of such customer service types. I had an ATT tech hang up on me once after a near argument about my need for service after a car wrecked the pole and took out my phone and internet…and I struggled to understand him on my cell phone. Told me I should get…
  • LOL….That's what I've heard it called as well…Toad in a hole. It wasn't a true hole, but an indentation with a glass. This is my first time to buy sour dough bread. I like it. And yes to the cheese! Here's my inane contributions…in pics: One….I got more wet, floppy, wilted salad…from HEB….I did a review…very disappointed.…
