I have gotten behind and read quickly through the last 5 pages. We did not get snow in Middle GA and I was disappointed. They did close all the schools. It was in the 20's and there was freezing rain. Today was gray with some rain and I was down. I am ready for some sun. I am discouraged about the dog. I love going out…

Good Morning! Nice sunny New Year's Day in Middle GA! Such a good feeling! I decluttered most of the morning and am so pleased with how the downstairs looks and how easy it will be to maintain! There is still much to do upstairs, but by the end of next year I hope this will be complete! Carol: How is your DH feeling this…

Barbie: Thank you for posting the 2025 Thread! You are in my thoughts and prayers. I just posted a fairly long post finishing December 2024. Again I wish everyone a Happy New Year as best as can be for the circumstances they find themselves in! Best, Rosemarie from GA

Carol: Oh my! My thoughts and prayers for your DH and for you. I hope your DH's recovery goes well. Heather: Happy New Year! Everything I know about Singapore is from Crazy Rich Asians. The picture of the pool looks inviting! Lisa: i absolutely agree! It is all about systems! And priorities. I am finding I want to clean…

Barbie: I am so sorry to read of your loss. My sympathy to you and your family. I will be thinking about you in these first days and in the year ahead. Peace to you and your family. Some blogs talk about the landing to widowhood. I hope and pray your landing to widowhood goes as smoothly as it can. I know Jake would want…

Barbie, thinking of you and Jake. Hope your daughter arrives shortly. Holding you and Jake and your daughter in my thoughts and prayers. Rosemarie From GA

Allie: I saw pictures that it was a white Christmas in the North East. Thankfully all went well for Christmas at your house. i wish Kyle if he won't accept he is bipolar would at least look at anger management techniques...before a court orders him to anger management classes. I have looked at some of Dr. Fiore's Anger…

Grandmallie: Has he ever lived in a studio apartment? I lived in a studio apt in Boston and here in GA. It is fine and enabled me to be in a little better neighborhood. I lived in the Back Bay 5 blocks from the Commons. Maybe he should rent a room temporarily and look for a studio apt. I am not sure I ever adjusted to…

Rebecca: I enjoy my own company as well. I am trying to stay in 3 days a week. Machka: Wonderful view! Your house is a great find! Grandmallie: If he is needy, maybe you should tell him 30 days. There may be short term lease places near by. There are here. Maybe he should go to a short term lease place while he looks for a…

Grandmallie: If he doesn't wear out his welcome, it might be nice having him with you for a while. I knew my husband wasn't well and that our lives would be changing. My son asked me to go with him to a concert in Asheville. I jumped at the chance and I was right. I may never get to go away with him for a week end again. I…

Grandmallie: That could be a shocker! You must still be adjusting to the idea! I am not doing gifts under the Christmas this year. I gave my son and DIL a cash gift so they could purchase something they want for their house. I am enjoying the Christmas tree lights. I got involved with the news and stayed up too late and…

Carol: I am so sorry there has been so much loss in your family recently. On the estate issue, I think maybe you could petition the court to authorize money from the estate to be reimbursed for the expenses you have incurred to date. Of course, I realize the Fulton County courts are probably swamped...but still being an…

Jenferbar: Certainly much happening for you at this time. I will be thinking about you. Carol: 55 years is a long time to be with someone! Congrats on making it this far! I hope next year does go better. I hope there are some intentional things you both can find to bring you both some joy. Food maybe...food is always a…

Lanette: Have you had any benefit from Nioxin. I have thin hair and do believe it has helped over the years. I have been with one hairdresser around 9 years. He likes to read and we discuss what he is reading. Barbie: The Authenticity Project sounds interesting! PIPCD: I am either going to get a pottery bench or cart with…

Terri: I didn't realize you were in a creative writing group! I hope your show case goes well! Sorry it has been so cold early! I went to bed rather early so am up and bathed a little early. I will go back to sleep for an hour! Well I am trying to figure out how to manage the day. I am suppose to walk about a 17 minute…

Happy Birthday! Nice family celebration! Best Rosemarie from Georgia

Machka: Sorry the day didn't go so smoothly. Lisa: Did I miss something? Are you going to have a website with your products? Heather: Glad the XMAS shopping is going well. This is the first year I said I was not doing gifts. I have one friend to buy for and several dogs. Several others received a check. For My mother I…

Barbie, Probably a good decision to trade the Telsa so another car can be serviced locally. I have always had Hondas. And I have always been able to service the car at the dealer. Now maybe this will change and I will stop using the dealer. But one reason I purchased a Toyota this time was because the Toyota dealership was…

Heather: I must say if I could find a John like your John who will help with the cooking and at least declutter his stuff and then enjoy a fine meal and also help with the grandchildren, I would probably consider dating! And he enjoys the ocean? My DH was all about a lake in NH where he had good memories with his family.…

Annie: Have you had dinner with Craig. Was it enjoyable? Lisa: Such a pretty set up with items to sell! Rebecca: Happy Birthday to your son! Have you gotten together with your friend? Debbie: Glad your show went well! Heather: Such great food you and John prepare! Carol: Enjoy your new robe! Michele: Great about doing the…

Meg: I am sorry to learn of your DH's diagnosis. I hope his treatment goes well. I know it can be hard to respond to the situation with the NP and not cause the doctor's office to become defensive and and maybe even drop you. Have you considered trying to speak with the Director of the clinic to ask if this mistake would…

Heather: I guess I aspire to be a citizen of the world because I listen to the Economist and read articles from the Economist. And I spent the day reading a book about governments. But I am a reader. I barely turn the tv on. And I would rather a magazine article that sums everything up rather than try to follow along with…

Heather: Happy Anniversary! Your holiday outfits sound terrific! Lisa: Love all the crafts in the picture! Your retirement pants sound practical and must look nice paired with long sleeved, tees or jackets! Barbie: glad Jake is a little more active and that your old cold is better. I mostly shop for clothing online. I buy…

I received a call from the dietician at Factor. I explained the meals were very good but that I wasn't eating the meat. She named about 3 other companies to try. She didn't try to get me to stay with Factor. She says Factor is doing a million meals a week. I wonder if that is accurate. I didn't realize these meal companies…

Rori: I love the snow! So great that you are doing such fun things! Machka: Great about the exercise! Lisa: I love the afghan and the jacket! Penny: Down 11 pounds! That is terrific! Debbie: I hope the shows go well! Barbie: I am thinking about Jake and hope he is well. Glad he is home! Heather: Glad you got the socks! I…

Machka: I admire so much the effort you put in to understand Brain function and to love and have compassion for your husband on a day to day basis. I know this must be a lonely endeavor at times...and that those around you might not understand what your day to day life is all about. Best, Rosemarie from GA

Thank you Lisa. RVRita: I just read about the flooding in NM..near Roswell. Hope everything is okay at the camp! Best, Rosemarie from GA

Oh and Lanette: I thought of you recently. I am on a streaming Martha Stewart kick! I love the different shows at her various ages! She had one on chickens! And of course her chickens are to die for! They are beautiful! Apparently she has been involved with chickens since the 70s or 80s and even facilitated communities…

So sorry to have missed so much! Life suddenly got very busy! My son and DIL have been coming and going from my house. We were all quite sick for a week. We went to North of Boston for the wedding and had a day in Salem. My A1C is up and I have been told I am pre-diabetic. I have found a group of 3 ladies to walk with. 2x…

Beth: Wonderful that your Mom is in a new, quality place! So pleased for you and her! PIPCD: I am with Heather, I would find some type of wrap for the black dress and wear them. You look great in them and with all your hard work exercising you should wear the black dress! Lanette: Wow! Great that you found the necklace.…
