Got the lights on the rest of the “fence”. Tomorrow we’ll probably work on the lights on the arches. Jess has an appt with a behavioral therapist for Ganon to help him have more confidence. I’d like to go to Cosco in the same town. I know Jess doesn’t like to just browse, but I do. So if I go in at 5:30, do my work,…

M – I may say it here, but Vince doesn’t know about it! Honestly, I really don’t think something will happen. I know he has friends who use facebook and they may say something to him. But he doesn’t know anyone who checks in here. The chances that someone randomly would see it here and know Vince are very slim The room…

Worked on my Christmas list. Put down the things I wanted for thebathroom Sunday I did the Firm Express Cardio DVD and then Beginners Yoga DVA. Taking Ganon for a walk just about every day. Forgot to feed him breakfast this past Sunday but he’ll be OK Working on Raggedy Andy at ceramics. The gal who used to run…

When I left work Wed. there was very little. They usually get a delivery on Thurs. I remember when I first started there I mentioned to the store mgr that I was concerned for the customer that we didn’t have product. They just continued ordering just enough. Well.,.,.,not my business. As long as I get my paycheck, that’s…

Tracey – when I lost my father’s ring that he gave me (it probably wasn’t worth much except sentimentally) something someone said to me made me think things in a different light. “if they had to take it, they probably needed it more than you did”. So whoever took your mother’s ring needed it more Lately our cats have been…

Barb – I’m sure J&C will help with the Christmas decorations. C already told me that when they get their own place (who knows when that’ll happen) Jess wants him to put up lights. I just laughed and said “Vince will give you pointers”. Oh, Tues is going to be a sad, sad, day. We’re going to close the pool. In one way,…

We had our neighborhood HOA meeting today (Sat.). I admit, I wasn’t good re: diet. The guy who is the president has this AMAZING pizza truck. And I do mean that the pizza is amazing. I had 3 small slices. Normally, I’m not a pizza lover at all. But his is a different story. Then came home and made corn muffins to have in…

Guess no one posted since pip's post. Strange. We're such a chatty bunch M

Seems I'm having problems refreshing. I'll try posting and maybe that'll solve it. Here goes…. Michele NC

Well, did the staristepper Thurs, then to Aldi. Tracey – I’m sure you’re making your MIL feel safe. What a hard life she had Heather – so sorry about your son, but glad you got the boiler “fixed” Welcome home! pip – I like the color of the rug against the wood Rebecca – if you want to talk $hitty carpet, you should see the…

After work stopped at Food Lion since they have cabbage on sale. Came home, took Ganon for a walk, made coleslaw, put yogurt in the IP, and made a spinach feta (which is in the oven right now). Tracey – what a wonderful DIL you are! Mo – you don’t know Vince. He’s one of the absolute pickiest eaters this side of the…

I remembered I got a Halloween costume at the salvation army. It’s of a taco, so I think I’ll use that Friday. Took me a while to figure out how to put it on….lol But for $5.00, good enough Heather – your cruise sounds fantastic! What food! Kylia – one of Jess’ cats had (has) a lump on her leg. They took a biopsy and it…

Carol – we all love you. Please take care of yourself Raining pretty hard so I won’t be taking Ganon for a walk (boo). Also, cold – in the 50’s Poor Chispa Barbara – thanks for keeping in touch with katla and letting usknow about it. You are a great friend When we go out to eat (which isn’t very often), I really don’t like…

Did Biggest Winner Shape Up Front DVD today and then Pilates for Beginners DVD, took Ganon for a walk, went to CVS to get passport photo taken (I need to renew), then to WalMart. Came home, made an apple pie, then helped Vince put out more Halloween decorations. We’re almost done. You know, got a pocketbook at a thrift…

Heather – thanks for the photos. I so enjoy taking cruises with you and Johnny Carol– I am so very very sorry for you and your family pip– yea for refrigerator and carpet!!! Mo– so glad for your husband. It’s really frustrating to work at a job you don’t care for. Melanie– love your stories Started putting the posts in for…

Does anybody know anything about this "pink salt trick". What is it? Does it REALLY work? Michele NC

Today did Biggest Winner Back in Action DVD and then a Yoga for Beginners DVD. Then took Ganon for a walk and then to WalMart and bought gas. After dinner took Ganon for a short walk. It started to mist and right as we were almost at the house it started to rain. I know he pooped, I picked it up and put it in a plastic bag…

Barbara – these are the bolts that hold the porch/deck to the house. They have to be sure the bolts are COMPLETELY thru the brick(and the leader board) before they can put the rest of the bolt together. Otherwise, the roof would collapse. Personally, I’d rather they cut the ceiling than have a roof cave-in….lol Mo – you’re…

At ceramics found out they DID have the paint I needed, someone else had the full bottle. Oh well….I’ll do the crab and then Raggedy Andy They worked on the deck today. Got about ½ of what he was anticipating done, mostly putting up the joists. I got some of the ceramics in M – I make pierogi once a year. They are a lot of…

Took Ganon for a walk then Vince and I did our “tradition” – we got our flu shots. Then got out some of the Halloween decoration so Vince can take pictures and put them up on Craigslist for sale. We don’t anticipate having Halloween parties any more. We did when we were members of Newcomers. Found out that one of the…

Barbie – what are the names of those books? Sad as this may be...I actually mentioned to Vince that it might be time to bring in the ceramics. J can still use the hot tub, she doesn’t need the ceramics to do that. Rebecca – I love your slippers. Melanie – my grandparents came here from Poland and they almost never spoke…

Did Biggest Loser 6 Week Cardio Crush DVD then Firm & Flex Yoga DVD then took Ganon for a walk Lisa – while ago I put this primer on some of the outdoor wood. Hey, it was white! That’s what I cared about. I think Vince thought I’d paint over it. Not going to happen. Same here...if he wants it painted, he can paint it. Of…

Mo - would you send me (Michele LeGrand) a friend request on FB? I'd love to be friends but when I searched for your name, 4 people with that name came up and two of them didn't have a picture. Thanks Michele NC

Worked then went to WalMart for a few things. Made an applesauce honey cake – wonder how it’ll turn out? The recipe didn’t call for any eggs or any type of rising powder (soda baking). So we shall see…. Tracey – your mom looks so lovely. Thank goodness you rescued your mom. What a terrible situation! You are a wonderful…

Planning to do a Body Pump DVD tomorrow and then from 10-12 we’re supposed to go to this ceramics place to see if there is any bisque that we’d be interested in. They started taking apart the enclosed porch. The other day the guy found out from his engineer that the wall between the porch and the deck is a load bearing…

Did The Method precision Abs DVD. It was really more yoga and pilates. Then did a part of the Ultimate Power Yoga DVD. First I fed Ganon. To try to get him over his anxiety, what we do is feed him in front of the dumpster/pool shed/garage and while he’s eating tap on the door. Eventually, he’ll realize (we hope) that…

Melanie – Pix is only about 7. Honestly, I think Jess is being a worry-wort. I feel “don’t worry until there’s something to worry about”. Rebecca – I used to buy a lot of baby veggies (like the stage 3 stuff) because they were good to take on a trip as they didn’t require refrigeration and were individually packaged so I…

Got to the gym today (yea!) and did a spinning workout then Aldi. Now home and will probably take Ganon for a walk. They’ve started taking apart the deck. Vince said they said they should be completed taking apart most of the deck today and will do the rest and the porch tomorrow. Then the dumpster can be hauled away.…

For some reason I was thinking that Pix had a vet appt at 10 so I stopped there after work. Nope, it was 8:30. Now I remember Vince saying that he doesn’t mind taking her, but would Jess please make the appts later (he doesn’t like to get up early). Seems Pix has a lump and Jess is concerned that it’s cancer. Personally, I…

After work stopped at CVS to get the cough medicine, then the church to count the donations. I feel so sorry for this sec’y. She gets so absolutely flustered. Then went to WalMart for some meat for the week, now home and will probably take Ganon for a walk Margaret – I was thinking that I’ll look for a small…
