Hello dear friends, Janet, so happy you had such a wonderful time and dinner with your friend. Your meal choices were great and I will bet the company was even better. Hard to resist the taters and milk gravy! Small victories all add up. My mother was surprised and overjoyed with seeing her grandson. It had been nearly 15…

Sorry, just a short stop. Have been enjoying time with my nephew. We went to Mom's for dinner and stayed until after 10pm. Then came home and talked until midnight. I had dentist Appojntment, then grocery shopping for mom, lunch, chores around her house and catching up on our shows. Followed all that with TRX and now going…

Good afternoon ladies, a wonderful lunch, as always with Janet. We chatted like magpies and all too soon it was time to head off in our opposite directions. Fortunately the weather was gorgeous and I could ride with the top down. So blessed that we live close enough to get together when we can. Praying Paula can join us…

Having a quiet day here. Watched my Bengals lose so done with football for this week, lol. Had a nice long chat with our friend Paula. She has rejoined WW and I invited her to stop by here some time. She got her disability in Jan and that has helped a lot. Her mother is still living with her and things are getting pretty…

Suzi, I have missed you while you were gone. You are my tracking role model. I have been out of the habit for far too long and really need to get back to it or I will never get this weight off. Congrats on the new puppy. I think Ellis is a fine name. I have never named a puppy before I met them. I had one of my dogs nearly…

Quick stop. Finally have a Saturday in town so am able to go make cards with my friends followed by lunch. Then have a wedding at 5:30 for my DILs brother. Tomorrow my nephew will be here for a week. So happy to see him and I know we will have some long, philosophical discussions. He has to work during the day so I am free…

Good afternoon, Cindy, so glad your experience was positive and that you are working on your version of PM. Still feel so heart broken for your situation but know you will work on your marriage as long as he will let you. Hope he finds the inner strength to look at his issues so he can resolve them in time. Bert, enjoy…

Good morning all, this week is just flying by and next week is shaping up to be more of the same. So excited to have my nephew coming on Sunday. He will be staying until Friday I think. He will have to work during the day so I won't feel bad leaving for some scheduled activities while he is working, like meeting Janet for…

Good afternoon, it has been a long day here. I was up at 5:30am to take BIL for his oral surgery. Finally got him back home at 1pm. My sis asked me to drive across town to pick up her prescription for her pain meds. So I did only to be told I was not listed on her profile so they could not give me the prescription. Then I…

Slow start to my day here, nice to sleep in with such good news in my head. Only plans for today is to go to mom's and TRX tonight. So excited that my nephew is coming for a visit next week. He is the older brother of the one that passed away a few years ago. Haven't seen him since the funeral. He is a free spirit and has…

Karla, what wonderful,trips you have planned, no matter when you go. I highly recommend Disney for a kids cruise. They just have so much more to offer and it gives the adults some free time knowing the littles are engaged and having fun Disney style. Suzi, you have good reason to love that pic of you. Your hair is so…

Quick good morning all. I am so excited that you are meeting Rachel. You two have always seemed so like-minded to me. Almost as if you were sisters in another life. Your temperaments and tastes are on the same page, I know you will have a fabulous time and bet you will be making a trip to the east coast at some point to…

Got home a bit ago from a wonderful weekend. We laughed, we cried, we talked and we ate. We watched Central Intelligence with Kevin Hart and the Rock. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time. Not for the kiddos but if you need a good adult laugh fest I highly recommend this one. Finished the scrapbook I took to work on.…

Cindy, my heart is breaking for you. I know it took a lot of courage to share your troubles here. Thank you for trusting us with your heart. It sounds like Rick needs more intensive counseling in addition to your couples therapy. This is not your fault as you have given him no reason for the mistrust but I know you are…

They open at 11 so anytime after that works for me. I chose the place, you choose the time. Sounds fair to me, lol. Will be so nice to sit and chat with you again. Funny how life keeps getting in the way of us getting together more often.

Janet, totally understand radio silence when you need to step back. Would you like to meet in Florence at BJs Brewhouse for lunch on the 17th. We have one here and I have been very pleased with their food and service. They have a very eclectic menu with plenty of light choices. Just let me know or if you want to meet…

Getting my stuff together for the weekend. I love these women with all my heart. They make me laugh, they make me cry, they make me think and they are always there for me no matter what. I remember being so worried that we would lose touch when I retired but we spend more time together than we did when we worked together.…

Hey ya'll, it is going to be a beautiful day here. Top down weather to be sure. Lots to do to get ready for the weekend. We are leaving in the morning or early afternoon. Need to get the winter cover on the boat, set up my son's cabin for the weekend. Mostly need to figure out how to work this Apple TV and DVD player and…

Nice day with Mom, all caught up on our shows and enjoyed a nice lunch. Edd came and hung a towel bar for her and then took her car home to wash, wax and polish. He is such a caring, loving man for a gruff old biker dude. Jelly is all redone and I will wait a while until I finish the last of the peppers, may turn them into…

Hello ladies, Karla, good luck with the first stage of your crown and getting your policies updated. How did court go yesterday for Jason, hope it was all in his favor. BS is boneless, skinless. I have made this dish and it is delish and so easy. You need not worry about me finding time for Janet, she is a major joy in my…
-
Suzi, you packed a lot into your day. You make me feel lazy. Thanks for the recipes Cindy, saying prayers for you and your love one. My daughter suffers with depression but I don't think it severe at this point. I know she is on medication and has been for many years. She tends to not communicate with me much when she is…

Monday, Monday........good morning Karla, sending prayers that things work in Jason's favor in court today. It never ceases to amaze me the lengths some woman will go to just to be vindictive. Mike went thru it with his ex but I am happy to say she never used his daughter as a pawn. Are you ready to retire and in a place…
-
Suzi, so happy to see you here and even happier to hear of your continued success. Can't wait to see what family recipes you share with us. Cindy, oops I got the weekend wrong. I did the file clean out a couple of years ago and couldn't believe how far back I had kept some stuff. It was interesting to see my tax returns…

Good Sunday morning, or nearly afternoon here. The shower yesterday was a tea party complete with scones, macaroons, lemon and lavender tea biscuits, clotted cream, strawberry lemonade cookies, dates stuffed with goat cheese, chicken salad croissants and 5 pots of different flavored teas. All of it homemade by the bride to…

Quick stop Janet, it does seem the the world of technology is working against you these days. Hope this is the new of it. It helps that you are such a sweet and patient person. Hope you can relax while you figure out the new phone. Karla, the brewery sounds fun and bringing your own food sounds even better. So happy your…

Karla, we were posting at the same time this morning. So glad Glenn likes and has confidence in the new surgeon. January will give him time to enjoy the holidays before facing that surgery. I know Izzy renews your soul. Cindy, glad I could make you smile. Whew, I am beat and still not done. Gym was just what I needed to…

Good Friday morning to all my beautiful friends. Praying the weekend renews your mind, body and soul. Cindy, sometimes being the bad guy is th only way to be your own champion. One of my favorite things on FB right now is a picture if the Wicked Witch with the caption "some days you have to put on the hat to remind people…

What a day! As it turned out BIL did not have his surgery today. They goofed up on it big time. He was only supposed to go for his pre op work up but was told the extraction was scheduled for today. The biggest problem for him is that he is on Coumadin and had to switch to shots for 5 days prior to the procedure. He has a…

Janet, so sorry for your dear friend, his family and you. So sad to think of his children left behind and his brother to deal with the aftermath. We just never know what is in the minds of others, how much easier life would be if we did and could intervene to change outcomes. Prayers for you all. Rest, reflect and…
