Lots going on and I finally got to read all the posts. This morning I made pancakes from the Biggest Loser recipe and were delicious. Later I made beef stew a new recipe from Pinterest and it was delicious and we bought some french bread to go with it. We had Dave's mom over for dinner and she liked her meal which made me…

Morning, I just finished aqua fit classes and still need to shower and then back to watching the inauguration. Gloomy and rainy day again and temperatures rising. Shirley

Here a picture of Isaac and Grandma last Monday. He will be 2 in April.

Going to aqua fit class this morning and not much else planned. Dave has finished painting the kitchen and now he is painting our cupboards. It takes a little longer to do but will look great when finished. Isaac is coming for a sleepover on the 28th so I will go and pick up a few things for when his comes. There is a sale…

Morning, Getting ready for aqua fit class and listening to the upcoming inaugration day news. I know there will be a lot of protests about this I just hope things will go as planned for them. I could go on but everyone has their political views and I try to keep mine to myself. Our dinner last night was enjoyable and our…

Jenny - so pround of you getting into exercise keep it up it will get better. I feel like a slug right now with my limited exercise routine. I think I will go to Yoga on Saturday as Dave will be shopping at Costco with our friend Tom. Tomorrow is aqua fit class, yay! Today was my chiropractor apt. and she massaged the…

Jackie - Nice picture and yes...you were slim as was your mum. When I was married I weighed 115 lbs. not now!!! I did have two kids but I have seen ladies who have had more and still look slim. My motto was I am going to get fat anyway so let's just eat. Wrong!! I had my chiro apt. this morning and then did some shopping.…

Morning Losers, Marie - Glad to hear Missy is finally bonding with you and Jerry. Just takes time. I hope you are doing better after your fall. Connie - It sounds like the baby shower was a success!! Not to worry about the treats this too shall pass. Emotional eating is my problem to and trying to get a handle on it. Sorry…

I just lost my post so I will try again. Grrr. You both are doing well on your 2017 losing weight plan. I know what my problem is, my knee, and I haven't been cutting my calories like I should. I have an apt at the diet clinic next week and not looking forward to it. Thinking of quitting at my next doctor apt. not helping…

Isaac and grandma playing blocks Shirley

Back from yoga and since I am only doing it twice a week now I am stiff and my knee gets in the way of different poses but still at it to keep my flexiability. I am still doing aqua fit twice a week and that seems to help my knee quite a bit. I visited with my MIL and brought her a donut since she is down to 103 pounds and…

Heading for yoga this morning, we spent Monday and Tuesday at Isaac's house. He had his first swim lesson on Monday night and loved it! He is so sweet and very busy and wearing out Gaga and Gagee. That's our new names for grandma and grandpa. I will return I still have to brush my teeth before yoga and I will finish…

Marie - Don't give up on Missy, it might take her a while to warm up. She has been to a lot of other owners by what you told us, so she might think she might be moving again somewhere else. Patience. So sorry to hear about your fall, I fell down our stairs at home in December, and all I could think of was my knee. But no…

Morning, Aqua fit class in 10 mins. and dinner tonight with friends from our sailing club. Enjoy your day! Shirley

Buzz - You are a lovely lady and a handsome family too! You look very happy. Anne - One of my closet friends here who doesn't live far from me is leaving. I understand, many times I have thought about leaving, life gets in the way and no time to chat. Take care Anne, we loved your stories and your sense of humor. Have a…

Today I will go to aqua fit class and work it!

Lost 1 pound for this week. Not doing well keeping on 1200 calories usually between 1400-1500. I guess will try harder next week.

I had my chiro apt. this morning and she is massaging the front of my knee now, trying some different things. It is so painful, but she did the same with the back of my knee and it is much better now with hardly any pain when massaged. It is a process and I have a long while yet before the MRI and still need an apt with…

What? it must be the weather or the month of January. It has been so gray out, temperatures in the 40's here lots of wind and rain. Looked out the window to the backyard and couldn't see the fence. Yep its down on the ground, only half of it. I told Dave, poor guy, he just finished painting our kitchen and now he still has…

Sandy- Love the picture and so adorable with the two boys. Yes I am excited to see Isaac and celebrate Kathy's birthday. Lin- So sorry to hear of the treatment you received from the "church ladies". I agree with Buzz, some people you just stay away from. Our choir had an experience from a church member where we practiced…

I went to aqua fit this morning at the "Y" and we had a different instructor, a young girl, and she really worked us. I wish we could have her all the time but they change their instructors all the time. I went to pick up my daughter's picture we brought back from New York and had it framed and it looks great! I hope she…
