Hi everyone. Yup, rainy again and getting a bit tired of it. My back hurts and so does my head!! I did get some of my bedding plants transplanted into large pots and have them in the house in front of a south window so that if the sun ever shows through the clouds the plants will like it. Eventually, when they stop talking…

Marie -- Sadly, no. They do spend time together and it remains very amicable. It is what it is I guess!! Glad they didn't find anything serious with Jerry but also glad he saw the Dr..

Hi everyone from, yes rainy, Saskatchewan. I am enjoying my all by myself day. I had a leisurely breakfast, Cheerios watching the food network and doing some suduoku. Must keep the brain active. :wink: I still don't have my exercise bike moved so that I can bike while I watch TV. The boys are coming out Monday to celebrate…

Hi everyone! I am tired tonight but then I get my second wind and don't know when to go to bed. I am still having allergy issues, I think related to the poplar fluff floating in the air like snow. Man, I hate those trees and our neighbout has a bunch. There are so many much nicer trees but not my choice. Speaking of snow,…

Just a quick hello. It was my WW night and wanted to tell you that I lost 2.4 pounds! Yeah!! Sandy -- Glad Daisy is doing so well. Take care everyone. Good night, sleep tight, don't let the bed bugs bite! Gayla :heart:

Hi eveyone from still cloudy Saskatchewan with a wee bit of sun poking through the clouds. Woohoo, Day 9 for Neil!!! He is a little grumpy today and wants to get out on his own. I was just outside and it really feels quite nice, shirt sleeve weather, I think about 50F but not 100% sure on that. It is 10C, normally closer…

Jeffrey -- I wish I knew how to make the wrap then I wouldn't have to go to the restaurant (hahaha). Seriously, it isn't the greatest weight loss food as it is a candied smoked salmon. It has a very slight sweet taste to it but otherwise just excellent smoked salmon. Quinn said that they use 2 oz. of salmon in a wrap which…

Hi everyone! Rain, rain go away. The forecast is for rain to continue into the middle of next week!!! That is too much cloud for me. There is also a threat of frost or snow tonight. I am glad I didn't get my flowers transplanted. I guess they will wait until next week. I am going to transplant my tomatoes, peppers and some…

Good morning from sunny Saskatchewan. It hasn't warmed up yet but it looks gorgeous. The grass is green, trees are in bloom and the birds are singing. What more could a girl want? I think I will go in to the greenhouse today and get some plants. Maybe even an apple tree. Day 7 for Neil. I was hoping the others would be out…

Hi everyone. Still cloudy and rainy here but I think it is Day 6 for Neil! Dave is out helping a friend do some bathroom renovations. He is better at going to help people than at asking them for help!! I do hope we get our work done before winter. I don't think I have anything to share today. Barb -- Way to go on the loss.…

Hi everyone from cool and cloudy Saskatchewan. Rain continues in the forecast but so far not falling. We watched the Canadiens/Flyers hockey game and cheered for the Canadiens but not a goal from them. I hope they do better on Monday. I haven't gone to the greenhouse yet as the weather doesn't look like planting weather. I…

Hi everyone! Lost my post with this crazy computer. Dave played around with it a bit and of course it didn't do what it does when I am on it. Actually, it is a bit better but still shuts down on me in the middle of somthing. I see a shiny new laptop in my future. Day 4 of good behavior for Neil. He went in for his bath…

Hi everyone from stormy Saskatchewan. It is very noisy outside and in the middle of the afternoon it is dark enough to turn the lights on as the clouds are so dark. I hope it blows over quickly as Neil has a massage in 45 minutes. Speaking of our little Prince, we have Day 3 of our sweet guy. I am keeping track because I…

Hi everyone! We had a hot day followed by some rain showers to clean everything up. I had gone to WW and left clothes on the line so I called Dave to pull them off before they were once again wet! In spite of a sore foot today Neil's behavior is exemplary. For now he has got the message. I would be very naive to think we…

sorry repeat, crazy computer.

Hi from sunny Saskatchewan, 84F. I can't express how grateful I am for your caring and support. Neil continued in his rampage today even refusing to eat. I read him the riot act and every time he started to cry I told him no crying as I knew he was using it to avoid the issue and turn it around to how sad he was. He does…

Hi all from sunny Saskatchewan. My kids came out and moved the hospital bed downstairs-- yeah!! The room seems so much larger and more cozy at the same time. While the kids were here Neil had another meltdown for the same reason as last time. My son and his wife have separated and Neil is devastated. It is the same…

Happy birthday elli! Hope you had a great birthday kind of day!! We had mostly a quiet day today until Neil broke out in one of his very large meltdowns. It lasted about an hour. Our oldest son was here and he said he didn't know how we could live with this. They are no longer every day, haven't been for a long time but…

Hi everyone from sunny Saskatchewan, temp. 75F, a perfect day. My clothes are washing and for the first time this spring I get to hang them outside. Many of you know that that is my favorite household 'chore'. I look at the cupboards that need cleaning but somehow just never never feel like doing that. Neil is out biking…

A quick hi to you all. I am tired, not used to working 2 days in a row. :laugh: It is only 11 and I am thinking about my bed. Neil is watching Wrestling (man, I hate that show)!! Day 2 on WW and still pumped, good sign I hope. Sandy -- Lee is also my favorite Idol this year. I hope he does well. The pictures on Facebook…

Good evening, friends! We had a gorgeous day today, hot and sunny! I had a pedicure done today as I want to be able to put some sandels on!! I love my painted toes. I have to work tomorrow as I am on the interview team for a new consultant. I think it is going to be a long day as the last interview starts at 5:30 and then…

Hi everyone! I did it --- I joined WW tonight. Now I have to figure out what I need for groceries. Daisy is as cute as can be. Has she finished growing yet? She is a very big baby, indeed! Jeffrey -- Good luck with the next step in securing the job. Marie --This diet business is always a struggle but they say it is worth…

Marie -- I emailed you Kay's blog address. Hope it works for you. How did the visit go with the nurse? Irene -- I also love the quilt. When I was growing up my Grandma lived with us a lot and we often had a quilt frame set up in our dining room. The ladies in the neighbourhood would come over and stitch, not always to my…

Hi everyone. We did our usual Monday run to the city for groceries, a haircut for Neil and lunch with my youngest son. I had a salmon wrap which was over the top yummy, salmon, greens, avocado, red onions and cream cheese. I can't wait for next week when I will have it again. Something is always getting in my way to get to…

Happy Mother's Day to all my wonderful women friends on MFP. Hope you all get to spend some time with your children even if it is only a phone call. I am expecting my boys out soon to help me do some yard work, the best gift ever! I need to get some trees dug up. Have a great day. Take care and keep smiling. Gayla :smile:…

Hi everyone! It was sunny when I got up but the clouds have moved in now. I hope it is nice tomorrow as my kids are coming out to help me dig up some volunteer trees where they shouldn't be. They are crowding out the shrubs and making it look very messy. I think I told you that Neil has an open area between his toes. It is…

Hi all. I found a post from Marie on our old thread. I am guessing she can't find us! :cry: So glad you are feeling better Marie and hope you find your way here with Barb's instructions. :heart: Here is the post: hELLO!!!!!! i Hve been 2 DA YS TO GET ON HERE. S ON HERE, SEEM LIKES i NEEDED TO LOG IN, aND PRESTO HERE i AM.…

Hi y'all! I haven't heard from Marie and now I am worried. I sent her an email last night but tonight I will send Alice an email if I still have her address. We had snow flurries today but they didn't stick around. The weatherman tells us that tomorrow will see sunshine. I am ready. Birdie -- Thanks for your Mom's words, I…

Hey everyone! Glad the rashes are giving everyone a chance to have a laugh. :laugh: Neil saw the podiatrist today and as always it is one step forward and two back with him. The very tip of one of the incision lines (between his toes) is open and sticky along with a granuloma (a tiny pouch of little blood vessels). We will…
