Happy Wednesday ! ! ! Sorry I was gone all day yesterday. Some days at work are just like that. Accept my apologies, but I am going to jump to the most recent page. Hugs ! ! ! Barbie – poor Brandy. I find it interesting that they call it a Zen cone, so hopefully she will be able to stay calm. I hope the healing progresses…

Happy Monday ! ! ! Michele – I don’t see any way at this time that telling your son his therapist is a quack would be taken as you intend. He is still blaming, and this would likely get turned around on you, too. Does your computer offer to record a skype session? It’s amazing how people will “behave” when they are being…

Happy Friday ! ! ! Sylvia – I think recording conversations sounds like a perfect idea. In fact, if you take out your phone and say “wait, I’m going to record this” everyone will behave almost immediately. Hugs and Prayers ! ! ! // Cute cartoon about the leotard. Thanks ! Pip – Hooray for “being” 41 ! ! ! Lillian – DH and…

Betty – It’s a little late, but here’s my experience with arthritis. I have had OA in both knees since around 30 years old (too experimental while a gymnast from age 5-14), and I also have RA. I have been getting cortisone injections since the beginning. I can get them as often as every 4 months, but I usually try to…

Happy Thursday ! ! ! There is no possible way for me to catch up on 6 pages, so I’m starting back on the most recent page. Hugs and Prayers for everyone I miss ! ! ! Sylvia – Hugs and Prayers for the situation with your son. I hope you all find the strength and peace you need and deserve. Katla – good luck with DH and his…

Sylvia - Thank you for blessing me (us) by telling us that story. It made me misty, too.

Happy Monday ! ! ! Beth – I’m so happy for your son. We do miss them when they grow-up. Hugs ! ! ! Katla – congrats on the exciting riding experience. It’s so fulfilling to accomplish such a wonderful feat ! ! ! Anne – I’m sure you can enjoy your cruise and never have to even look at the ex. You deserve to have fun ! ! !…

Kaitlynn will be delayed, I need to wire money to WalMart so she can get a new tire first. But she is coming, and bringing a friend. I'm so excited, I feel like a little kid. This friend is the one who recently lost her boyfriend, so I'm glad that she will be getting back out into the world. I'm so happy ! ! ! More Hugs…

Happy Saturday ! ! ! Donna in WV – Nice job on all the exercise yesterday. A walk outside then a few minutes of video? You are rocking this ! ! ! Janet OKC – You are all still in my prayers. Donating organs so someone else can live is a beautiful sign of love and respect, and incredibly hard for the family. I hope you are…

Happy Friday ! ! ! Drkatiebug – Congrats on the clothing NSV and your lifting ! ! ! Sue in WA – I used to do that while walking on the treadmill. I would say things like “I am happy, I am healthy” with each beat of a step. It really gets the body and mind together. Janetr – The entire group of family and friends are in my…

Happy Thursday ! ! ! Anne in Racine – if you want to go to Three Dog Night tomorrow, PM me. Keenanklk – The nice thing about dogs is you can get more exercise while you are exercising them. You Can Do This ! ! ! Becca – that does look delicious! I think I am free the last weekend of the month. Not completely free, because…

I chose a Kind brand granola bar, dark chocolate mocha. Not calorie and fat free, but more filling and some nutrition. Thanks for all the help. Tonight I will fill up with some Healthy Choice soup with extra garlic because the cold finally caught me. Hugs and thanks to everyone ! ! ! Terri

Get out the boot - the cherry torte in the breakroom is calling me, and calling me, and calling me more. I tried sweet berry spice tea. Maybe a granola bar next? Only 1 hour left at work, so I NEED to ignore that torte ! ! !

Happy Wednesday ! ! ! Yvonne – At the office where I work, many people have brought in yoga balls. Mine is a little short for working at my desk, but I bounce on it during breaks (which are also taken at my desk, but I rest my brain from most everything that does not require immediate attention). I hope it also improves my…

Mindy - Yay for your daughter. Too bad about your position, but treat every interview as a learning experience, and good things will eventually come you way. Drkaitebug - your execise class sounds like fun. The fitness gurus here do fun stuff like that, too. The snow has arrived, but it looks very light so far. Hugs !

Linda - if you decide to go that route, here is a website where DH sometimes shops for bowling equipment and supplies. Keep in mind that you still must pay someone to drill the balls, and ask a smart coach who is familiar with your DD's technique before buying anything, to make sure it is the correct "performance level"…
-
Happy Tuesday ! ! ! Yvonne – Welcome back, and keep working hard and finding the support you need and deserve. Grits – I enter every contest that I think will even slightly interest anyone I know. The trick to raffles is to crumple the form, then leave it partway open. It makes the other entries bounce out of the way. I…

Happy Monday ! ! ! Oops! I forgot it's February already. Thanks Barbie ! ! ! Carol – I hope you had a drama-free weekend. You deserve a break. Miriam – Congrats on taking the first step. It is always great to make new friends, even if this doesn’t become a romantic relationship. Yay ! ! ! Becca – congrats on the sunshine.…

It is always great to make new friends, even if this doesn’t become a romantic relationship. Yay ! ! ! Becca – congrats on the sunshine. We have some here now, but I’m “locked inside” at work, so…

Sorry I've been gone so long again. Here is a pictorial of my weekend: [img]https://15254b2dcaab7f5478ab-24461f391e20b7336331d5789078af53.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com/mfp-en.vanillaforums.com/editor/gd/l12xyp67uske.jpg[/img] First is my Dad's co-worker and her husband. He and I both won tickets to Wynonna Judd then my dad got a…

Happy Monday ! ! ! Lenora – rah-rah ! for drinking more water. Sylvia – what a strange and scary story about the school mixing up your DGS for another child. That was a stressful day for you. I hope you are refreshed now for another. Michele – I thought of you when my DD texted singing the praises of Aldi. It is a 30…

Hello again everyone ! Linda – Hooray for Sophi with her bowling ! ! ! I hope she is able to maintain the balance between competitive and fun. We try to take DS to the AMF “all you can bowl for XX hours”, because paying per game can be VERY expensive. I wish you lived near Milwaukee, because I have several balls I would…

Happy Thursday ! ! ! Just a quick fly-by today, and hopefully I will have a little more time to check in on everyone soon. Payne finished 16 pins behind the tournament winner, and 180 pins above the third place bowler, for second place, but they only awarded scholarship to the winner. Since he made friends with the winner,…
-
Mary - Thank You ! ! ! I worked VERY hard teaching DD to be resilient, so it is common for her to be the "strong" person in her circle of friends. Kinda' like that country song "do your make-up girl it's just a breakup run and hide your crazy and start acting like a lady because I raise you better gotta' keep it together…
-
Happy Wednesday ! ! ! My computer is still not completely happy about doing all this work, but I’m still plugging away, hoping to keep going and finish. Since I am so far behind, I jumped directly to today’s page, and will do my best. Sylvia – Hugs continue ! ! ! I hope it’s not the chili, but I understand how nervous you…

Finally got computer to allow me on this site. I have my new fitness tracker hooked up to my phone. I'm more excited to see my sleep pattern right now, because my RA is doing pretty good this week. Lots of work still to do, so Hugs for Everyone ! ! ! Terri in Milwaukee

My work computer is being stubborn. Hugs and Prayers for everyone ! Terri in Milwaukee

Happy Thursday ! ! ! Lenora, Lynn, etc. – I understand the leash on kids, too. I used a Velcro leash on my son’s overalls at a Brewer’s game. A large man walked between us, looked down at the leash, and said “how terrible to treat your child like a dog”. I responded, "without this leash, you would have separated him from…
-
Heather – all that talk about what happens before/during the haggis has me totally confused and entertained. I hope you can post some pictures because I am VERY interested. // Hooray for doing your writing ! ! ! Katla – the Grateful Dead? Wow ! I am WAY older than my true age, as I am SO looking forward to seeing Three Dog…

Happy Wednesday ! ! ! Kimses – Hugs and Prayers for you employment journey. May you find the direction you are destined for in life and work and health. Miriam – Your story about the golf-cart joy-riding teen reminded me of a few situations from our house/business in Winona. We owned a bar & grill. One summer I called…
