  • Lynn, I love Carbanada. I have different types of it. I am going to order more for my chicken noodle soup. Whoever asked where to get it asked where I got it. I purchased it from Amazon. I love the Arnold Hot Dog buns, too. I get my hamburger buns from Royo. They taste great. I even packed a loaf for my trip, and I'll tell…
  • I just visited my mom and finally took down her tree. I took DS's small white tree with lights and hung shamrocks and gold coin ornaments. I also took her Christmas quilt and put the teal-blue one on her bed. My mom was looking at her copy of my wedding album and asked me who my dad was. She thought DH was my brother.…
  • Lynn, I am a diabetic, too. I can have a 1/2 of one, but I figure why bother. I love bananas, but I have been fine without them. My nutritionist has me on 120-130 carbs per day. So I buy Royo bread, which is not cheap, but I am an empty nester, and it is worth it. The bread tastes good compared to the regular bread and…
  • Welcome to our tribe, Lynn of NC. We are a great group and learn a lot from each other. I hope your hyponatremia and hypokalemia get fixed. It isn't easy. Low potassium can affect your heart and cause arrhythmias. The same goes for sodium, which can cause you to lose energy. Are you eating? Have you had any viruses that…
  • Lisa, you may think that I am weird, but I look at my pee to see if there are any signs of fat in it. I see oil if you look. Maybe it is the science behind it that fascinates me. Just a thought. Goodnight all. X0, Mo in MS
  • Lanette, It was low when Dr. Monroe checked my D level, and I was in my forties. I had to take a high dose of Vitamin D. Now it is on the high side of normal. So, a D level needs to be checked, too. I got a message that it was time to go to the lab and get my levels tested again. They check everything now. When I was…
  • Barbie, I still grieve my daughters. The one I lost( Alexandra) that was March 9, 1999, and my dad passed away on 11/4/2003. I just had a necklace made in Alexandra's memory. I had to go to grief support groups, and I slept with her picture under my pillow. I also grieve for Julia, the daughter who chose crime over being…
  • Lanette, they checked mine in my forties, and I don't know if it was due to being overweight or due to my PCOS diagnosis. My gynecologist had it tested. Then they continued to test, and one day, I had an A1c of 10.6. It is also a family issue. My aunts and paternal grandmother had diabetes. My having PCOS made me more…
  • Hello, or good early morning, my wonderful friends, When I got home at 8:00 am after talking to DH the moment I got in the car at the garage in the hospital to my home. I was exhausted. After each night I worked, I could not get up promptly with the alarm. I just wanted to sleep more. I did not get any exercise done. I did…
  • Hello everyone; I tried to post on Wednesday but gave up after all I typed disappeared. I saw my therapist on Tuesday, and he encouraged me to participate in the 5K. I will see if I can work on Thursday instead of Saturday. I have been working out, and I love it. We even talked about hiring a CPA. I told him that I would…
  • Good morning, Tribe, I slept all day until DH called. I had the weirdest dream. I dreamed that I was in a lady's car who was driving like a nut. My kids were young and in a car seat, very secure, but hers was getting up and down in the car. So I put them in car seats, and then I buckled up. I asked her to pull over, but…
  • Hi, I am up with the dog. Rose didn't like the breakfast I blended into her dog food, so perhaps she wasn't hungry. I am pondering staying home today, but my head hurts, and I am stuffy. We will see. I am thinking of texting my doctor, Lauren, for antibiotics for what I believe is a sinus infection. I have been getting…
  • In one more minute, I can say good morning, Ladies. Today, I was lazy and stayed in bed. I had multiple headaches and decided to take a break from working out today. I will work out in the am instead. Okay, it is 12:01 am central time, so good morning. This is my last post for this week. Your post this week was…
  • Good Morning, ladies, I decided to read all of the posts from February. I missed a lot; the mac and cheese made my mouth water. Pip, I read that you signed up for another MS fundraiser. How can I support you with your fundraising? Machka, Your co-workers are correct. You do have a nice smile. Where did you get such a…
  • Hello again, ladies, I wish I knew how to create a spoiler alert so my picture post would take up less space. I am terrible with tech stuff. Lanette, I wonder how long it takes to digest beef, fish, Veggies, and chocolate cake;). Dr. Katie, I am sorry you had to close your account. If criminals would spend their energy and…
  • Hello from Mississippi warm weather of 78 today. Barbara this is Baby Suko, Godmother to my kids, maid of honor at my wedding, we went to college together, and grew up together. (Her real name is Linette).
  • Happy Birthday Kylia❣️🎂
  • Oh, one more thing. Lisa, how do I get to see your YouTube videos? What is it under? Carol, Your housework is saving your sanity. I do hope you can talk to someone. You have been through a lot with having a sick husband and the near-death scare. I forgot to share that I lost five more pounds! Okay, that is it. Love yah, Mo…
  • Hello, my tribe! Like Kylia, I identify you all as my tribe. I trust all of you more than some of my family. I wanted to clarify something. Tracey, I could be wrong about your DH. It just appears that he is depressed. It may be something else. I do have to say that women are the strongest and are the nuts and bolts of a…
  • Carla, I am so sorry for your family's loss. It is so sad, so I have no words as well. Sending hugs all around. It is a cruel reminder of how precious and unpredictable life can be. One more tight hug. Love, Mo in Mississippi.
  • Tracey, I know each of you could do my job because you all have big hearts. Tracey and Heather, I don't think Rodger can do anything right now because it sounds like he is experiencing Major Depression. If this is true, it can be debilitating. All he can do is exist. He needs medical help. Tracey, you are like me. If I am…
  • Rebecca, I can see you in my mind's eye having fun. As my friend John would say, "You go, girl!" I was sitting down watching television yesterday, and my legs fell asleep. So I stood up and walked, but my legs were still numb, and I knew I was going to fall. So I did, and I exercised my legs and got up. I thought getting…
  • I know I am sweaty, but I am happy when I am done with a good workout.
  • This is a pic of me at my heaviest 330 pounds. That was Julia’s middle school graduation. That might not be the healthiest pic. Maybe Horace’s graduation from high school. Here are my high school pictures. Y Younger pics too.
  • Sorry Rita, I meant jokes.
  • Hello, young ladies! I missed you all so much. It took me a couple of days to catch up. It was a busy four nights. I had a 13-year-old who had terrible headaches. They found a large tumor. They had to resect it. We are waiting for the results of the biopsy. I am getting attached. His mom is an ICU nurse, and we worked…
  • Hello dear friends, It is midnight, and I guess I never switched to a day schedule during this stretch of my break. DS has a lot of anxiety. He puts his stuff in storage, and they keep going up in price for him. He works at the university and has an internship teaching dramatic writing to High School kids. Plus, he has his…
  • I finally exercised today. I did 45 minutes of step aerobics; I wish I could burn calories petting Rose. She has been eating a lot. I gave her some rotisserie chicken and salmon on her dog food. I wonder if cold weather makes you more hungry. I slept more today as well. Last night, I forgot to put on my CPAP. I took out…
  • Good early morning, friends, I spoke to DH about how cold it was yesterday. Saturday, I went to a bridal shower, which was nice at 67 degrees. Yesterday, it dropped to 35 degrees, and we expect snow on Tuesday. Rose slept at a doggie day camp Saturday, and we slept on and off all day Sunday. DS said they were up all night…
  • Hi everyone, I worked Friday, and it was a tough assignment. I had a toddler who had fevers, pneumonia, and RSV. She was breathing so fast. So, she was getting antipyretics regularly. Then, I had another toddler who was very sick for a long time. I gave him medicine for fever as well. I decided to give him a lavender bath…
