  • Prayers for Tracey ((HUG)) Michele NC
  • Did the Melt It Off DVD then went for a walk around the neighborhood, then to Aldi, then washed and waxed my car (we need the rain), went to Lowe’s with Vince. I don’t know why but almost none of the plants the guy gave me are blooming. Got these Miracle Grow sticks and if they don’t help the plants bloom, maybe I’ll have…
  • Tracey – happy birthday Mo – I live in Newton, NC. It’s near Hickory and about 1-1/2 hr from Charlotte (NW). I volunteer at the local soup kitchen every Friday. Honestly, I consider myself so blessed that I can afford to buy lunch. Too many people can’t. Yes, there are people who play the system. But they’ll have to answer…
  • Terri – happy birthday to your husband barbara – fingers crossed that everything goes well with the telemed Heather – you did a great job on that cabinet. Looks professional Lisa – so glad things are looking up for you. You’ll get to 100%, I know it Carol – thinking good thoughts for your hearing aids pip doing the MS ride…
  • M – I hope you get the job you want. Good for you opting out! Did a spinning workout, then took a shower, went to WalMart, then we put down weed killer, went in the pool, bowling tonight Heather – I remember when the pandemic hit, it felt so good to go to the soup kitchen. Gave me a reason to wear decent clothes and…
  • After work had the appt with the eye MD, all’s fine and I’m to see her in 6 months. Then we cut the weeds (grass). The plan for tomorrow is that I’ll do a spinning workout, go to WalMart, then we’ll put down weed killer. Just came back from my walk around the neighborhood. Planning to watch the debate – should be…
  • Heather – so glad Edie is safe. Thank goodness for that helmet! We had a “luncheon” at senior bowling today. Everyone was to bring a covered dish. It was since it is the end of the summer season and the winter league starts in 2 weeks. I brought an orzo shrimp salad. Really didn’t get eaten much. If people don’t know what…
  • Did a section of the Cathe Power Hour DVD then took a walk around the neighborhood. Got an area cleaned up where we cut the bushes then made a shrimp orzo salad for bowling tomorrow. Now I think I’ll probably go out by the pool. Just finished trimming the cat’s nails Heather – glad the new cupboard fits. Isn’t it…
  • Jess called late last night. She won’t be here today. A friend of theirs had a stroke and the family is pulling the plug today. She did say something about coming tomorrow to get her registration (she had it mailed here), but I think that’s a lot of driving. From VA to here then home. Well, at her age maybe she could do…
  • Flea – don’t worry, I’m not throwing out all of my husband’s family pictures. But 4 of the exact same picture???? You really only need one copy of the same thing. Remember that years ago when cameras first came out, people would take 2 and 3 pictures of the same thing because not every picture developed. katie – glad to…
  • Did an incline interval workout yesterday (Wed) and then the water class. I talked to the gal who teaches the spinning classes and she says that she doesn’t have the music very loud and doesn’t yell things like “woo hoo”. So maybe I’ll try entering her class but doing my thing. Maybe I’ll try it next week Monique – yea for…
  • Worked then went and bought two more plants. Got them planted and…….drum roll MY OVEN IS FIXED!!!!!!!!!!! Missed ceramics but now I can bake so it was worth it. Then took a walk around the neighborhood. Tracey – you know what I use the fusible tape for? You know how sometimes the tag sticks up on your shirts? Well, I put a…
  • Carol – here they are when we first got them, We were bringing in the Christmas (yes, Christmas) decorations. I already have the popcorn strung for the trees You know, while we were bringing in the decorations, Vince took about 3 breaks, he had to sit down. Then I went in the pool and he took a nap. I do find that the…
  • Debbie – the roommate didn’t need to say goodbye. As long as she’s gone, who cares??? That’s nice of your mom to let that migrant worker sleep in her garage. What about his things? Frenchfancy – welcome! What kind of protein breakfast did you have? Barbara – I won’t clean for Denise. I only get to see my grandson two days…
  • Did Karen Voit’s Firm Abs and Arms DVD then walked to Food Lion. Decided I needed more Asian Pears and the peaches were on sale ($1.29) so I got them in addition to a package of Gatorade for Vince. I didn’t know it, but I could have saved an extra $1 had I also gone to their kiosk. Well, live and learn….. Then to Aldi…
  • Worked then went to a nursery. I was told they could help me with plants. Got 4 plants, got 2 of them planted no problem. Vince was at the fair running trains and a neighbor of mine helped me get the one plant out of the ground and a new one planted. Then went to Lowe’s Hardware where I got another plant that I’ll probable…
  • Margaret – Can you see DrewB’s tattoo if you just turn her on her belly? For our cats they would have to be shaved. Would DrewB??? Tracey – what a night! Praying for everyone Worked. they were glad to see me back. Then the soup kitchen, then went to WalMart for milk for Vince and a few other things. Then home and cut the…
  • Just got back from Jess’. All the kitties are now chipped and snipped. I was able to watch the snipping. It’s quite interesting. I honestly thought there was more to it. Oh, I’m sure Denise is quite depressed. She doesn’t have a good life at all. Get up around 5, get ready for work, let the dog out, get PJ ready, go to…
  • Wow! Be away for a few days and look what’s happened! Went to Denise’s. It was very informative, that’s for sure. I saw a medical form from Pete. Now I knew that he was bi-polar and had ADHD. What I didn’t know is that he’s being treated for anxiety, depression, insomnia, and something that I think is called medical…
  • Tracey and M – I took the pepperoni off the pizza because Vince says he doesn’t like pepperoni. If he knew it was on the pizza, he wouldn’t have eaten it. Really, there was nothing wrong with the pizza. I just took it off so he wouldn’t see it. Tracey -The peaches were $2.99 a pound One reason I don’t eat the same thing…
  • Did Upper and Lower Body Boot Camp DVD today then walked to Food Lion to get potatoes (on sale), kiwi, then decided that I wanted peaches (I like the ones they have). Came home and made cabbage soup (cabbage was on sale for 49 cents/pound so we’re eating coleslaw and I made soup), some sandwiches to take in the car to…
  • Well, Jess forgot that she had to watch 2 dogs so she didn’t come. Three dogs (the two and hers) and 4 kittens would probably be too much...lol Lanette – the recovery from the eye procedure is going well, I’m sure. I put the eye drops in (I have to put them in for one week) and the first time it really stung. Now, not…
  • Rori how nice to see you! A few years ago I got stung by a wasp and to this day the minute I see a wasp, out comes the wasp and hornet spray. Hope it heals fast for you. By the pool I have the WHY trap (wasp, hornet, yellow jacket). I use apple juice as the attractant and let me tell you, it attracts EVERYTHING that flys…
  • Barbara – the article on the net said that pushups were strenuous. To me, they’re not at all. They also said situps. Perhaps if you do a full situp it MIGHT be. Lisa – I don’t criticize Ken and Lynette for saying “I love you” every few minutes, it’s just strange to me that you have to say it every few minutes Debbie – yea…
  • I am feeling so bushed, don't want to go for my walk. Jess is coming tomorrow so "she can go swimming". After the soup kitchen, I need to go to WalMart to get hamburgers for dinner. Maybe I should clean out the spa now, otherwise I have to do it tomorrow. Just not sure what time she'll be here, I would ASSUME after work…
  • Tracey – I totally can see telling someone you love them – but in front of everyone? And I totally can see texting if you have a specific reason, but just to say where you are when you have someone else in the car? I can see texting when you are alone. Heather – woo hoo! Those firsts keep adding up. I like to throw things…
  • Tracey - wonderful table. Michele NC
  • Vince couldn't hear in one ear and he thought it was an earwax buildup. Turns out he has a viral infection in a nerve. The MD gave him a shot in the ear and it's supposed to go away. Hope so. The "callous" on the bottom of my foot is still there. Not getting worse but also not getting better. The next time I see the MD I'm…
  • It was raining so I didn’t pick up the donations for the canned food drive. I told her that I’d go there tomorrow. I don’t work but I’ll make a special trip. Then I have a procedure at the eye md. She didn’t say so, but everything I read says that for 24 hrs. afterward I should avoid hard exercise. So I peeled and sliced…
  • Rebecca – rock hard brownies dunked in milk are quite good actually Lisa – I don’t sew much other than something straight. I used to sew a lot, but haven’t done much in quite a while. Those towel toppers look neat. I put frozen fruit (strawberries, blueberries) in yogurt, let the berries thaw and that makes a “juice” for…
