Hi ladies. Well 60+ pages ago everyone was wishing me success with starting over, and here I go again. Last week I was just overwhelmed and ate way too much,, but as they say each day is another chance to start over, so that's what I'm doing today. I don't know why but I almost get paralyzed I guess with anxiety or maybe…

Greetings friends. It’s another cold day here but at least it’s above zero! Orientation for my new students is today and that’s always kind of exciting. I have a counselor appointment this afternoon then will grocery shop. My list is tiny!!! I’m having trouble cutting down and only buying for me! I did 15” on the cross…

Hi friends. We are out of the deep freeze for now, it’s going to be about 12 today! Woo hoo bathing suit time! Actually it’s high time for me to get serious and get to work on my weight and health. I have nothing else to concentrate on for now, so I need to get going! Evelyn: that’s a great idea (brushing your teeth after…

WOW It's January 2 and there are 8 pages already? You guys amaze me. I have several goals for the month, but the biggest 2 are working on this 5 week diabetes "in control" plan from a magazine I bought from the ADA and the other is to start working on cleaning and organizing. The first week started yesterday and this…

Happy New Year to my vitamin F friends! Meg from the deep freeze AKA Omaha

Hi Ladies. I couldn't get in here yesterday, the computer just kept "thinking". Things are going well here; got to see everyone on Christmas although DD#1 wouldn't come to our best friends' because she isn't speaking to DD#2. So I went there afterwards. DH called twice and said they had an excellent meal, so he's grateful…

Why yes it did work. Cool!

Hi ladies. Let's see if this works: Thanks Becca for the insight and for the cute cat cartoon. I have to run do some last minute errands now that our ice has melted. BFIN is coming over later to jump the Saturn (has a brand new battery and ran 2 days ago, now is dead) and to drive the jeep around for a while. Take care.…

Hi ladies. It's going to be a "wintery mix" today into tomorrow. I hope it's not too bad, I have to do my grocery shopping tomorrow since I was too lazy to go yesterday. Well I am flummoxed about DD#1. She keeps saying she doesn't have the money to buy Christmas gifts for the kids, but the BFIL says they did get gifts. So…

Greetings to all. I am enjoying one of the last really nice days for a while. One more tomorrow, then snow and cold for the next 4 days at least, so it looks like we might have a white Christmas. That would be awesome. Classes are done and the final is graded and I’m just putzing around here in my office until I leave for…

Hey friends. I'm sorry last week was so crazy. I worked late every day. I hope you are well. I cut my Christmas stress by refusing to decorate LOL. I have a tiny metal tree on my coffee table with my one present sitting by it, a wreath on the door, and holiday placemats! That's it. What a far cry from a tree in every room.…

Well hello and happy Monday. There were way too many posts to read them all, but I did read some regarding the instapot. My good friend has one and I have loved everything that comes out of it. Much better than the crock pot. But I'm not up to another kitchen appliance either. I did manage to lose a little weight this…

Hi ladies. I am loving all the photos. Nothing much went on yesterday other than teaching my last class of the semester! That's always great. It has gotten cold here, but winter is my favorite season, so that's fine with me. I'm having a quiet office day today. Lunch yesterday was bad, but today I planned and brought my…

Hi friends. There is not much going on here today; it has turned grey, cold, and windy. Last night I cut my finger on broken glass in the garbage disposal????? I have no idea how it got there, but there were pieces of a shot glass filling up the disposal. It won’t turn on or even make a noise. It wouldn’t run after I…

Hi friends. It is a gorgeous sunny day in the 50s here! I slept in and just plan on having a quiet day here at home. A friend from a support group brought me a ‘care package’ from the wives…bath salts, a journal, stationary, a lounging suit, a fuzzy blanket, 2 bottles of alcohol, and hot cocoa mix. Oh yes, I forgot a…

Hi ladies. I got back late Wednesday night and stayed home Thursday to get things done around the house, plus I had a counseling appointment. This was much easier than I had anticipated. Honestly, when I left him there, I felt great relief. I feel like we are doing something positive to resolve this situation. So now I am…

Hi to all. I am home. DH is safely deposited. His bunkmate is actually our friend from the support group. DH doesn't have phone yet, so the other guy is calling his wife, who is texting me. That is awesome and makes me more comfortable. More later. meg

Hi all. Looks like Thanksgiving was good for us! Both daughters came over, although DD#1 and BF came later and didn't eat, but they did stay awhile. I don't remember phat chat, but vitamin F friends now comes to mind! Well off to get some book work done. We have lots to do before Tuesday morning rolls around. Take care.…

Hi my friends! What did we used to call ourselves? There was a name we had….shoot I can’t remember it! Well it’s cold but sunny and tomorrow will be delightful and in the 60s. I’m looking forward to Thanksgiving; I really enjoy that day and the cooking. DH and I vowed to enjoy it no matter who came or for how long. We have…

Hi friends. This is just a quick check in because I just got home from work and have to head out to my support group (Sanon). We had the other group last night. I'm grouped to death LOL. But everyone at both groups is awesome and so supportive. Last night was DH's last time at that group, so it was kind of sad, but to see…

Well I don't know who said it, but my boat has sunk too. Right now we are eating out or with friends and DH wants every possible treat he won't get for the next 3 years. And Thanksgiving is coming up. I have decided not to worry about it until I come back next Thursday then it will be time to focus on me. Take care to all!…

Hi ladies. I'm doing my best to stay focused and on track, but my life has been total chaos lately. Some of it is work...this is my busiest time of the year, but some is that I am starting to panic about DH leaving. We still don't have a date. How do they expect people to make travel and work arrangements with so little…

Greetings from foggy Omaha. I am trying to see this as a new day and the start of a new week and being positive. I got a new phone over the weekend and still can't answer phone calls LOL. We got a security system too so now I can lock and unlock my house and see what's going on remotely. I'm being dragged kicking and…

Hi friends I only have a minute or two....hugs to all who need them and high fives to those celebrating victories big and small. My life is totally unmanageable now but I am trying to take the reins. Take care, meg from Omaha where it's pretty chilly today!

Hi my friends. Man it has been so busy here at work I can’t believe it! It’s 3:19 and I just finished eating lunch. I have got to get a handle on this stuff! Just found out that DH is going to Englewood, CO, but we don’t have a date yet. I suspect it will be the 29th because that is what the judge recommended. Now it’s…

Hi friends. I am late to the party as always. Too much drama here. DD#1 and the BF in law have totally cut us off right after the baby was born. I have just been beside myself. Now I need to move on. My November goal is to get my diabetes back in control. I admit I have been stress eating and not caring what it did to me.

Hello all. Just a quickie...grandson was born yesterday sometime...Huddsen, 7 pounds, 5 ounces and that's all I know for now. Take care, Meg

Happy Tuesday all. It’s another gorgeous fall day here with sunny skies and nice mid-70s temperature. We closed on rental #2 this morning, so hopefully all will go well when the buyers close the 1st. Our realtor is driving us nuts. DD#1 is being induced today. No word yet, but last time it took about 11 hours, so I won’t…

Hi once again. I have got to get in control of my life. I make such good plans and never follow through. We had out-of-town company over the weekend; my BIL and SIL. It was nice to see them, but we had a crazy weekend. It didn't help that DH is still in a lot of pain. He did get the catheter out on Friday and things in…

Wow ladies this thread is as awesome as always! So many posts and I just can't keep up. But I do enjoy reading them in between other tasks. Terry your pics are beautiful! I love your silver hair...I am growing mine out now. I'm so glad it's Friday. I am exhausted from the week! We have houseguests coming tonight but they…
