Hi friends. It was beautiful here today, in the 50s, but I have had a headache all day so I haven't really done much. I did walk the 1/2 block to the mailbox. I plan to get on the cross trainer for 30 minutes after dinner, then I think I'll head to bed early tonight. Barbara: I had to ask too! A back facial is a facial on…

Hi ladies! I'm sure glad I'm done with work today. We had an all day curriculum "retreat". It was more like a coordinated hostage-taking. I'm glad we finally were able to escape. It was dreadful in every way possible. They fed us breakfast and lunch. Breakfast was a mini muffin. Bleh. I had to eat about 10 to keep my blood…

Happy 2019 to all. I had a very nice, long, quiet break and I feel very recovered right now. I think my little November meltdown kind of frightened me. I really felt close to losing control. But things are better now. My new year's resolution is simple: take care of me, what ever that means at the moment. I did a very poor…

Merry Christmas to all my friends here. My NY resolution is to get back here more often! I have managed to lose 17.1 pounds since DH has been away and I think it's mostly due to the Trulicity. It has really curbed my appetite! I appreciate all your support. Take care, Meg from cloudy Omaha

Good morning friends. I had a wonderful, quiet, restful weekend that was awesome. Now I'm back at work looking at the piles of papers on my desk and wondering where to start! I don't know if I told you, but the 29th was the 1 year anniversary--or helliversary as I call it--for Leonard being in prison. I had a little…

Hi ladies. I'm still rattling around here. Nov. 29 was DH's 1 year anniversary in prison and I had a little meltdown. I might have told that already. I am taking a leave of absence from work for 1 extra week at Christmas break. My last day for this year will be next Thursday. I need some healing and self-care. I think that…

Hello my friends. I wanted to stop by and wish all of you a very Happy Thanksgiving and be safe if you are traveling. I actually have lost 6# since the last time I was here. I've changed my diabetes medication and it is so much better. Take care all I hope to be here more often now. Meg who has been MIA in Omaha

Hi to everyone. It was another 12 hour day and I'm exhausted. Thank God tomorrow is Friday and next week is fall break. Plus I am going to visit DH the weekend of the 19th~ Tomorrow is our 22nd anniversary and I've been near tears today and finally figured it out. Duh! Prayers to those affected by the hurricane! Rebecca:…

Hi ladies. I'm here but about to do this: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ Love the cat pics! Snowflake: I teach nursing to students who already have unrelated college degrees. They get a 4 year nursing degree in 15 months, so each class is compressed to 8-9 weeks, but it's the same as the regular 4 year courses. This…

Hi ladies. I'm not sure I'm going to like teaching on Tuesdays for the next 9 weeks 830-530. BLEH. If class actually goes that late, I will miss my s-anon meetings! So the other teacher and I tried to put some on line time on Tuesdays. Today went the whole time and I didn't get home til 615. it's still raining here; my…

Hi girls. I am on a borrowed laptop from the library at work. My PC died and my new replacement cell phone is hardly working either, it's the technology black cloud hanging over my head. But I can get on now! I hope you have all been well. I feel like all I do is start over here! Meg from rainy, rainy Omaha

Hi ladies. I am in a tsunami of technology issues. First my cell phone went nuts; it wouldn't stay on, the start up program ran constantly and it was deleting my contacts. So I got my replacement and took it to the story yesterday and lo and behold, the keyboard doesn't work right and you can't do anything with it if it is…

Hi friends. I’m starting to feel better with more meds on board. I felt more focused at work and actually accomplished some things. Wonders never cease! Still resetting my alarm over and over, so that’s a habit I am going to have to break. It’s cool and rainy here today but tomorrow is supposed to be 90! Heather: Happy…

Hi ladies. I am home safe and sound from the funeral trip. I mostly stayed in and was lazy over the weekend, so now it's time to get my a** in gear. As far as goals go, I don't even know where to start. I think I will say 1) drink enough water, 2) exercise, and 3) exercise! I already have goals for each of those areas, I…

Hi friends. DH has had 2 deaths in one week so I am heading to Oklahoma for the funeral of his dear cousin whom he lived with. I'm leaving tomorrow and won't be back on here until Saturday or Sunday. They are really out in the boonies with sketchy internet! Take care, Meg

Hi all. It has been a very long day and I am heading to bed. Thank you all for your kind words and thoughts and prayers. I did manage to exercise so this is 2 whole days in a row! woo hoo! LOL. Neither one of us is attending the funeral, more about that tomorrow. Take care. Loving the pictures! Meg from Omaha

Hi girls. Leonard's dad died this morning. I called the prison so they are having the chaplain go and tell him in person.

Howdy. I am still here. We thought Leonard's dad was going to die over the weekend, but today he seems better. I have been doing a lot of journaling and have discovered that in my "Personal Craziness Index" one sign of potential relapse is not logging on here. So I am making a concerted effort to get here daily, even if…

Well here I am again, but it's so late I'm heading to bed. The day just got away from me. Thanks for all the good wishes...I should clarify it's my father in law who is in Ohio. I'm getting different stories from people, so I'm not quite sure what is going on. One of my brothers in law will be calling me with an update. I…

just stopping in briefly; I got a call from my brother in law. Sounds like dad is doing very poorly and his step daughter is calling to tell people to come. Also his beloved cousin is now on hospice. It worries me because the year he had 7 deaths was when his trouble started. Say prayers please.

Hi friends. Wow! So many cool pictures! I have enjoyed looking at them and reading all your posts. Don't have much to say today except I am really going to try to get on here, at least on one place, every day. Football team lost, but at least they played hard til the end, which hasn't been true with our last coach. It's…

Hi ladies. Finally made it this far today! I read all the posts, but it's 8 and I haven't eaten yet. I put in about 7 hours in the yard Monday, and another today, plus a friend put in 2 1/2. As you might imagine, the yard looks like a jungle/forest something. It's frightening. I'm surprised no one has called the weed…

Hi friends. Well it looks like I may have to stick to chrome here at work to get on here! Hope everyone is alright and doing well, hugs to those who need them. We must be having a monsoon season; we've had over 6" of rain in the last 3 weeks. My backyard is a swamp right now. Literally...water goes over the tops of my feet…

Hi ladies. Well here I am, finally! The support staff at MFP could not replicate my problem and told me to use Chrome, which at home is very iffy. I can get on it at work. So anyway. I hope all of you have been well and I have missed you all. Down a little more, but still not changing my weight until I get below my lowest.…

Hi all I have been having all kinds of problems with this site. I still cannot get onto my home page "news feed" despite several emails from support. It's not my computer because the same thing happens on every computer I try it on. harrumph. So I am still here! Meg from Omaha where we got 6" of rain the other night.

just popping in for a moment to echo what Rebecca said about needing validation. Many, many people on the sex offender registry are there either because they were stupid, curious, got files not requested, and/or needed validation. many sex addicts are just like other addicts; they use sex of some type as a drug. My hope is…

Is anyone else having trouble with the home page? Nothing shows up there.

Hi friends. WOW. Talk about being depressed...I guess. The trip really took it out of me. By Wednesday I was better, but then Thursday went to court to support a friend who's son got sentenced for child porn. It went very badly. The prosecutor broke his agreement with the defense, and the judge was WAY biased. This is a 20…

Hi friends. I got home yesterday at about 6 pm, slept like a log (God that's a long drive) and today I am still tired. I will be going to bed after dinner! I'll behave tomorrow. Too tired to think about it now. Take care all and Happy Birthday Carol! Meg from Omaha

Hi everyone. I am running around like crazy today trying to get stuff done so I can head off to visit DH in Colorado tomorrow. My best friend is coming with me. I did read all the posts and am enjoying the photos! I reconnected with an old friend of ours yesterday. I think I may have told you but one night I couldn't sleep…
