Recently, I'm seeing all of your names as possible friend requests. I sent requests to Carol, Allie, Mo, Kay and Margaret. Feel free to ignore my request btw. I saw you Lisa, but you said you were leaving FB, so I didn't send a request. I'm not very active on FB, but if I missed someone who would like to be friends on FB,…

Carol …. I'm sorry to hear that your husband wasn't able to proceed with his tests. It is so frustrating when the different medical disciplines can't get their act together. Praying it gets worked out soon. Hugs. Rebecca … Happy Anniversary! Allie … what's going on? Praying you soon feel better. Beth

Carol … keeping you and your husband in my prayers … Loyalty cards … while you may get a discount with loyalty cards, their real purpose is to track your spending habits. Even using a credit card allows a retailer to see what your preferences are. I generally don't care if you know that I like Cascade and not Finish …🙄…

Lanette … I have not considered a needle tenderizer. The one you linked had good reviews and was cheap, so I put it in my cart and will purchase later today after I look at another 100 or more and then go back to the one in my cart! 😂 Rebecca … breaded tenderloins look good to me, but my son is swearing off all processed…

Thanks Rebecca, Lisa and Machka! I am leaning towards trying to make the pieces smaller and quick sauté. I've not had luck with poaching/boiling in the past … I always go too far past done. And I don't really like the texture of crockpot cooked chicken … gets too mushy. I am a fussy one even if my son isn't. Lol. Beth

Kylia … I purchase Godshall's beef bacon when I'm craving bacon … usually for BLT's! I no longer tolerate pork products and the beef bacon is so much better than turkey bacon. More like the real thing. It runs about 8.99 a package in my area which isn't too bad. I do find I have to cook it more crisp than I did with pork ……

Michelle … my son was fed up with being overweight and wanted to change the direction of his life.
-
Kay … Happy Anniversary to you and Dave! Eyes … I have been very careful with my eyes … especially when I couldn't hear and only used visual cues and lip reading to communicate. To be both deaf and blind was/is terrifying to me. Even though my hearing is now good with the cochlear implant, I still worry about damage to my…

Michelle … while men who have a few pounds to lose often lose weight quickly, in the case of my son, who has been dealing with significant weight issues for several years … he has made both mental and physical lifestyle changes. He's only eating clean, low fat protein meals, supplemented with among other things casein and…
-
Carol … I like the sunflower meme! Barbie … thanks for the September thread! Have to weigh myself tomorrow, but I think I stayed the same. My son, however, has dropped 35 pounds since mid-June and just hit a major milestone this weekend! My husband was put on Metformin last Thursday and had a low sugar crash this morning.…

Tracey … have that crown checked by your dentist. They are never supposed to feel "off." Most likely it is set too high. I've had that problem before and now don't leave the dentist's office until whatever work has been done "feels right." I tend to laugh at most situations in my life or otherwise I'd be crying all the…
-
Allie … hope the doctors find an answer to your problems soon! Tracey … I had a vehicle with a moon/sun roof here near Buffalo. Rebecca … It does indeed hold the weight of the snow. But know where those buttons are. Without thinking one morning before work, I pushed the wrong button and the sunroof opened … dumping me with…
-
Tracey … great looking new ride! Mo … sorry you picked up some crud … Lanette … the bots are not deterred by my weird bee profile pic. Rats. Husband is at the back surgeon's office to discuss recent MRI and how they should proceed further. Very conservative group so surgery is not necessarily going to be recommended at…
-
Lanette … the insurance agent was referring to both the continuing rate increases and the underwriting/carriers leaving NYS as to why the system would eventually crash. It's not sustainable. And we all know that. Question is what's the solution? Barbara … sciatica pain is awful. Sending healing prayers your way! Rebecca ……

OK … just wanted to let you know I changed the profile photo. Tired of the multiple scam friend requests so moving away from a personal pic. Beth near Buffalo
-
Lanette … my husband is scheduled to see his doctor next week to review recent MRI and make decision about surgery. Surprisingly, the MRI showed no change from his pictures of a year ago so the increased pain and weakening strength issues had to be from overuse. They will be discussing this also. Flea … I don't think I…

Pip … you've probably noticed by now …. missed toes on the 4th pair of prints from the bottom. I think it looks great so far. Went to the dentist this morning to repair a large chip in a tooth near the front. Novocaine in the front means a numb nose. Anyways, it looks pretty good … and it better … it was pricey. Barbara ……

Mo … An option for the student loan … we used College Avenue when taking out a parent loan for our son (not a parent plus loan). We always went with the fixed rate. I'm looking at their site right now and fixed rates start at 2.89%. https://www.collegeave.com/student-loans/parent/. They're highly rated.

Pip … one of the reasons my husband bought the truck he did was because it was a "red" … cranberry/maroon color. He didn't like all the grays and refused to buy a white truck. We live near Buffalo you know … lots of snow and white is just a stupid color in a snow storm. I like the interior of the car you did decide to…
-
Rebecca … Tucker was a beautiful dog. Hugs to you and your sister. Mo … my husband and I made our son take out the maximum amount he was allowed under the federal student loan program (his debt, not ours) and we paid the balance after substantial scholarships that he received. Still, it was a boatload of money. At first we…
-
Lisa … you have no idea how many posts I've written over the years and then deleted before posting on here. I have to censor myself constantly. I agree with what you and everyone else has said to Allie. Allie … Remember you are loved! So loved by so many. Praying your daughter will grow up someday and come to recognize…
-
Debbie … your mom's fears and concerns will diminish significantly if you are with her in the future for medical appointments. No one can take the place of family… and given you said you have POA and I'm assuming her health care proxy you need to be there to get facts straight. The doctor really shouldn't have been talking…

I got behind on the posts … Carol … Happy Belated Birthday! Allie … I'm so sorry that your daughter lashed out at you … hugs Lisa …the sweater is great! Mo … glad to hear that the job prospects are looking much better for your husband. Yesterday, husband and I took a long, but beautiful, drive to pick up a fire ring for…
-
Carol … so sorry you were the victim of a scam. My parents received a similar call a few years ago and it was very difficult for them at the time to discern whether it was real or not. Don't beat yourselves up too badly. Heather … love John's photos of the sunflowers! My husband and I celebrated our anniversary yesterday…

Meeting with the dealership manager … not perfect (their mistake will still cost us in the long run due to the error going through financing), but we're satisfied with the given solution. Beth
-
Heather … thinking of your step-daughter and her community … devastating. Rebecca … gas pains are miserable… sorry you're having to deal with them. Carol … the mattress still seems "saggy" to us, but we're sleeping on it without discomfort … so we'll give it a little more time before calling the manufacturer. Barbara ……

Kylia … you look fabulous in your dress and heels! Kay … congratulations on meeting your health goals! Pip … your newest pup looks very content. Ginny … thinking of you as you move to your new digs. I'm of the mindset that all changes, even positive ones, have a component of grief as well. (Loss of familiarity, memories,…

Ginny … Happy Retirement! Barbie … thanks for the August thread! Kelli … the male friend requests, messages are ridiculous. I delete. Goals … I stayed the same weight, but my overall blood labs showed improvement so I'll count that a win for July. However, my August goals are to move more, be lighter September 1st and be…
