Re in TX~ Thanks for the compliment :-) I am growing my hair out, and its just at its blaaa phase, but the grey hair is being nice with the other colored hair so thats good! Yep we sure do got this!! For me, the key is preparation. The most important ingredient in food prep is my MOOD. This organizing, chopping, logging…

So for dinner I had some whole wheat pasta, mayo, sweet relish, and a can of white whole albacore tuna. It was creamy enough, with the tsp of mayo, and sweet enough with the T. of relish. I measured out 42 g. of dry whole grain pasta, (which when its dry is about a handful), but cooked was enough. At lunchtime I had some…

Thanks ladies for the compliments :-) I don't think my husband will ever really "Know" all the scariness of his disease that I saw. He tells it that I was overly dramatic, but maybe those situations are for my brain only. If he truly remembered everything, he might not have rebounded like he did. For sh*ts and giggles here…

Just a quick hello to the lot of yas! (((((group hugs)))))) Sooooo I have an Amazon tablet, and even though I can't get on the community tab, I can log my food in and post on my home page ok. For some reason our wireless connections aren't working, so the computer is the only one connected to wifi. So I have just spent the…

Betty~ This time of year its hard to see the "people down on their luck" and are panhandling. This is what I do know though. They have made that choice to panhandle. There are many "warming centers" in our area. There are places that they can go for food. There are many services that can help them. I have seen many…

Our city had a "brown out" with the power strobing a bit so it blew out our router, and other tech stuff! This happened on Wednesday night and the temps were 17' outside. So our computer has been acting crazy! I rec'd an Amazon Fire tablet, from my elderly neighbor so sweet! In her words, "I don't know or care to learn…

So today is day 2 of the BECCA TRANSFORMATION!! heehee....I did that in a wrestler referee voice in my head..... I am donating blood today at 3 PM, so I had a fairly substantial lunch today. I am bringing some walnuts and one square of my 70% "endangered chocolate" yep that is the name, for my snack afterwards. No waxy…

I have all my blasted ducks in a row!!! Kitchen is beeeautiful. I will take some pictures of my "staging areas".... Going a wee bit mental overboard? YOU BET. I do feel like a Powerful Woman! Becca going gaga in Oregon

Katla~ Love that saying!! It's like my "All shall be well, and all manner of things will be exceedingly well" saying. Gives us hope, and sometimes hope is all that separates us from those who fail, and those that succeed! Lenora~ Wise words you speaketh!! Feeling the "we are all in this" fuzzy great feeling... I love this…

Allie (((hugs)))) friend.... As a child of a divorce process gone horribly wrong, I can relate.... There has to be some normalcy somewhere! As a teenager watching my parents marriage of 26 yrs go down the drain, I saw the ugly. It sure doesn't help the process of divorce along that's for sure. I personally think just like…

Heather UK~I have been at the 250 lbs mark for awhile, so yep, I am morbidly obese. 2 lbs a week is a bit strict, so if I lose 1 lb a week I would be happy. Pretty much its 300 calories per meal, and the rest a couple of snacks to keep me sated. The "fight" as I put it, isn't just being hard on myself, but just the…

So I changed my target weight to 179 (see my "personalized" scale in my picture). I changed my exercise to mostly sedentary but I will be exercising doing something 5 days a week for 30 minutes. I put my goal of 2 lbs a week. That put my calories at 1200 a day. I have done it before, so I kind of know what to expect. Time…

There is the recorder for gosh sake... :smile: -Get to the pool twice a week, and MOVE! That is all I shall do for January. (((((New Years Hugs to the lot of…

Lenora~ Beeeautiful picture of you! Almost to your goal, good on ya!! I think I will have a lot of quiet time after son leaves...... It's definitely enjoyable, but mentally I am "on" all day and wow I do miss my 1 hr naps here and there. (Oye...I sound like an old person....*sighes*.....) I am excited about starting a new…

Mary from Minn~ Yep I appreciate them every day. I might not have things, but one thing I do have is my family. When all is said and done, I will take family over everything else though. My three sons, husband and I get along so well, it's fuzzy-feeling comfortable.... Today everyone was quiet in the car for a moment while…

thanks Rori, I try :-)

middle son 22 yrs old on the left, and teenager (18 yrs old) on the right, doing a puzzle :-) The middle son has blue eyes with gold flecks in it, but the camera messed those up. I have had a nice day! Went for a walk all 4 of us, then to an arcade, then to the beach. Came home and had an early dinner of French Dips, and…
-
Aw....my middle son made me breakfast.... He took the leftover taco meat, and added scrambled eggs, and cheese. You then put it in a tortilla. Which I did, and it was wonderful. I don't think I have any of my sons make breakfast before. He was even trying to scrub the pan clean, but I just said, you can just soak it in the…

Helllooooo ladies!! Katla~ We left the house at about 11:30am and there was slush and snow on the summit of Hwy 26. I would have freaked driving, so I was glad husband was driving. My son's flight was to arrive from Sacramento at 3:40PM but when we looked at the board (with husband doing laps with the car), we saw that the…

Blue crisp skies today. We are driving to PDX to pick up middle son this afternoon. On my roller coaster ride of missing my eldest son, and excited to see middle son. I think my eldest son had a good relaxing time with us. I taught him how to make fluffy tapioca pudding. I gave him a large index card and told him to write…
-
New Year hugs and only the best of emotions saved for you all! Husband recorded Ben-Hur.....4 hrs worth. I do like a sweaty Charlton Heston, but gaaaahhh!!! He is watching it now, as we wait for eldest son to get ready, and then its a late breakfast at a restaurant near us. He heads out today back to Whidbey Island, WA. Oh…

Allie~ Hugs to give you strength in all that you will need to do. I agree with whomever said to document everything. Every conversation you have from him from now on. Having an attorney be the mediator is a good thing. We all love ya and wish only the best for you from now on.... Becca Oregon
