  • Well, we went up to Denise’s. The drive up there was not a lot of fun, what with the wind and all. But at least it was better than the drive home. 40 mile/hr gusts of wind on the Chesapeake Bay Bridge. We stopped at their welcome center and you should have seen the line of trucks that couldn’t go over, hoping the weather…
  • We called to confirm that they would be here Monday to get the deck started. Well, with the rain and all, it looks like it’ll be another 2 weeks After this last move, we’ll move again when the kids put us in the old folks home deb– I hope your refrigerator gets fixed We’re supposed to have a zoom meeting with the condo…
  • Rosemarie - yea for jeans fitting! Well, we had a bit of excitement here today, My neighbor found a kitten the other day, Today Jess went outside and the kitten was in the road. Seems the neighbor had it on her porch and was just feeding it. I don't know, to leave it out in 90+ degree heat. She said she looked before going…
  • Did Firm’s Super Body Sculpt DVD then part of the Ultimate Power Yoga DVD today. Then took my walk, then to Aldi and then WalMart. Brought the groceries home, put them away, had breakfast, here, then probably in the pool M –yes, after what Bryan said to me, I can’t think of anything that Denise can say that would hurt…
  • Worked, went in the pool, then went to Lowe’s Hardware for pool salt. Jess just got home (she does work in Raleigh, gets paid$1,000/mo for going there on Sat) so after Lowe’s went to Jason’s Deli for lunch. I just had the turkey wrap and only water to drink but I did have a small bowl of their soft-serve ice cream. Came…
  • Pip – Not Bad??? I’d say more like awesome After work went to the church and got the donations for the soup kitchen’s canned food drive. Took them to the soup kitchen (mainly so I can have my backseat back) and when I went to leave the car would not start. A guy who works there gave me a jump, and I drove to Advance Auto…
  • Carol – yes, Ganon likes to go for a walk...as long as the weather is not real humid or hot Quite humid today. Didn’t even take Ganon for a walk. Jess, Colby and I went to ceramics. Vince didn’t want to go because he says he gets cold in the evening. I don’t know, he’s in his shorts right now. Happy Birthday Alfie! Here’s…
  • Carol – ask and ye shall receive: Ganon: who every time he sees me probably thinks "oh HER again, that means walk time" Good thing he doesn't know pip….lol Jessica got him from NC State. He was used for teaching purposes. Honestly, she's had him about 2 or 3 years and I think I can count on one hand the number of times…
  • Well, the store mgr at BK told me she looked at the video of people in the refrig and it seems that people, for whatever reason, changed the date stickers. They didn’t realize that I already had them on. Really? Well, I knew something was wrong so that explains it. Not sure why they felt they had to do that As far as…
  • Tracey – what great work you do on your albums! Someone at BK is definitely doing prep in the evening. It’s just my habit to put the date stickers on the left of the pans, they were on the right. I mentioned it to the store manager, maybe this says that they really don’t need as many people in the evening? I would never…
  • Margaret – I thought phlox only bloomed early in the season! Thanks for sharing Rita – good luck at the MD. A snake hanging out of anyone’s mouth would gross me out, too. Lisa – every once in a while I’ll scream out in my sleep. One time I screamed and attempting to wake me I scratched Vince. He never again attempted to…
  • Kim – happy birthday! Lanette – J&C don’t really know how long they’ll be staying. I have a strong suspicion that they’re looking to buy a house, but I don’t think they know in what area. So we shall see Did the core part of the Cardio Core DVD. Then did a pilates DVD. I don’t think I’ll keep that one – too much dancing…
  • No work so went to the Y and did HIIT. Then took Ganon for a walkaround the block. Ceramics tonight so maybe when we get home I’ll take him for another (shorter) walk. At least I’m getting my steps in!!!! Update: I put my cat welcome sign in to be fired. Mo – yes, Ganon is Jess’ dog. My grandson (PJ) who lives in DE is 6…
  • Smilia and sMiles – wonder what their sibling will be called? Was drizzling this morning but stopped so I took Ganon for a walk Went to the sleep doc earlier today. This is one of those “everything looks good, keep it up” visits – mainly so that Medicare will continue to pay. On the way back stopped at the Salvation Army.…
  • Went to ceramics tonight and picked up my shell Sharon – I find stretching in the pool much better. I can do a lot more Had the dermatologist appt. Everything fine. He wants to see me in April since I love to be in the sun so much. I guess this gives him a good baseline. Misting out still and gloomy so only took Ganon for…
  • Mo – if I don’t exercise first thing in the morning, it doesn’t get done. The only exception is that on days that I work, I will take a walk around the block or down to Food Lion or the dollar store. But now that Ganon is here, I won’t be walking to FL or the dollar store. He just gets too anxious at traffic. As far as the…
  • Got a question: Like tonight I'll prepare dinner but if Colby isn't finished working, I'd like to leave their dinners in the refrigerator. There's just so much room. Anybody have an idea how I can stack the dinners? Are there some sort of "shelves" I can use. I have some for my plates, the dinner plates on the bottom, the…
  • "PT shows you the exercises that you should be doing for whatever issue you're having, and how to do them properly." M – I have a book called “Stretching” by Bob Anderson. It tells you how to do the exercise and what body part it works. Why wouldn’t that help? Mo – so sorry those headaches are back! You are so very right,…
  • Did Jillian Michaels Full Frontal DVD then beginners Yoga DVD, then took Ganon for a walk around the block, fed him breakfast, then went to WalMart. Drkatie – fantastic weight loss! Great advice to go out for what you crave rather than having it in the house to binge on. I do that mostly with soda since I really don’t…
  • Ginny – Oh, I’m so very sorry about Zombu. Our furbabies take a special part of our hearts with them. Pip – looks like you wore Ethel out! You have such a great way of looking at taking care of Kirby. He’s lucky to have you Got a text from Denise. AGAIN she doesn’t want us to come up. This time the excuse is that they only…
  • Vince bowled in the afternoon on Wed. We prebowled for this past Monday and I accidentally wrote on the paper that it was for Wednesday seniors but the lady at the bowling alley said that she’d fix it so that our prebowl scores applied to Monday. Went on the stairstepper Thurs. Went to ceramics, finished my shell and J&C…
  • Carol – I may not have explained myself correctly. Say, on Sun I’ll make a roast, portion it out, put most of it in the freezer but just keep the portion we’ll use that week. I do make most of our meals from scratch, mainly because Vince is so pickey. At least I know what’s in the food and what I need to hide from him…
  • Pip – Lucy is one lucky pooch. I didn’t for one second doubt that you’d be getting her Jess got here about 6:30 Mon. and brought most of the things they’re going to use here. Colby did decide on just using their queen size mattress. I need to learn to be more patient and just let things play out. Speaking of which: can…
  • Came straight home from work since Jess is going to be here with her stuff. The movers got there around 9 so we thought they’d probably be here early in the afternoon. Well...seems they’re having trouble loading the truck so they don’t expect to leave until 3 which would get her here around 5 – 5:30 Flea – we were…
  • Did Firm Body Sculpting System DVD then one part of Ultimate Power Yoga DVD. Took Ganon for a short walk, put a load of laundry in, then WalMart and bought gas. Made yogurt (well, it’s still in the IP), some zucchini pineapple muffins (I think I may have used too much zucchini), went in the pool, now here. Also made…
  • Worked then took the mower deck to be repaired. Finally Vince is admitting that the mfgr isn’t going to do anything. Went in the pool and when I came out, they had called saying that the deck was ready. We had to give them a $40 deposit. The guy talked about putting in a piece of metal and screwing that down. In the end…
  • Did an incline interval workout today. At the Y I always went into the family locker room since there aren’t a lot of people there and I could spread my things out in one of the three rooms. Today they asked me to put my things in a locker. Not that it’s a big problem, but what’s the big deal early in the a.m.? I’ve NEVER…
  • Pip – absolutely beautiful garage sale find! If that lady does not give you Luna, she seriously needs to have her head examined. Update: sounds more and more like Luna is yours Wed here: beautiful day, honestly I’d like to go in the pool. However, the gal asked Vince and me to bowl for her since she won’t be able to and…
  • Worked then took Ganon for a walk. Last night Vince kept going on and on about how the tub downstairs was disgusting. Really, it just needed to be scrubbed, it really wasn’t that bad. Here I was expecting something really bad. There was this girl who worked the register this weekend. Honestly, she wasn't doing practically…
  • Did a Cardio Core Express DVD then a yoga for beginners DVD. Then took Ganon for a short walk around the block pip – I thought you already had her! If you do, she’ll be one of the best taken care of dogs this side of the Atlantic Rebecca – my first encounter with a car that shut off was when I visited my friend in…
