Hola, everyone. I skimmed through the last part of April and this page. Do I have a hope of catching up? Heather - thank you. The song "Stronger" is a favourite of mine. Machka - It is encouraging news that your DH is awake and saying a few phrases. I will continue to pray for his recovery. On the subject of Thank You…

Made it through pg 77. Might have some time later but doubtful I am procrastinating about a shower because as soon as I have one then I will be ready to go to the lawyer. I really don't want to do this but think I have to make sure I protect myself. This is not a good way to live. Yesterday I took Jason to the ER. He…

Made it to pg 74. Machka - One foot in front of the other. You are a strong lady! Kylia - Sending up a prayer for Joyce. Felicia - I hope you feel better soon. Rebecca - So sorry about your DH's Aunt. The news from Toronto is devastating! What has happened to our world. Yesterday was not so great. Dog, food and a trip to…

Heather - Those grandkids are cuties for sure. Janetr - Felicity is a beauty. Becca - I am glad that your DIL is doing okay. It is a pretty hard thing to go through. My sister had a similar experience. She was told that she probably wouldn't conceive but Kate is now in her late 20s. Today my joy was going to Keira's dance…

Back again. I hopped back in at pg.59 so once again know that I have missed a lot. Seems to be a common theme for me this not keeping up but I am going to be easy on myself this time around. Trying to do things when and if I have energy for them. Penny - I try to get my Vitamin D from being outside if I can. Living in…

Made it to page 37 and should get to bed now. Joy today - Filed my AISH papers. So glad to have them done. Also I had a very long phone visit with a dear friend. Tomorrow I am looking after Harmony. Boss is coming for a sleepover weekend. Keira has a dance competition in Red Deer and the kids are going to have a visit with…

Terry - Don't beat yourself up. You will get back on track. Goals 1. Move more, Eat less Accomplish by - Walking outside with assist when possible -Recumbent stationary bike until I can take Sparkle Orange out. - Swim 1-2x /wk -Go to gym with Jheri or a friend 2-3x/wk 2. Find Joy wherever I can. Spread Joy whenever I can.…

Kylia - The little faces would disappear on stage without the over the top makeup. Keira came out dancing. She was 3 or 4 when she collapsed on the living room floor inconsolable. Jheri asked what was wrong? Keira's tearful response " My pirouette is broken. Oh, Mommy, I need a dance teacher" Where did she even know the…

I'm jumping in at Pg 21 knowing that I have missed so much. Allie- I am still using some of Mom's cards. She was ready for any occasion. Terry - I hope that the ring worm clears up quickly. The itching must be so annoying but those creams usually work well. Rori - How did you hurt your foot? I missed that. I hope you are…

Wendy- Thank you. I am trying to be completely honest with myself. I need to be clear on what I really want. I am chuckling about your husband. Has he noticed the new filly? I have been an optimist most of my life. My Dad called me "Sunshine". My brother's when they wanted to get under my skin called me "Little Miss Merry…

Catching up once again. Barbie - First, thank you for bringing us through to this new month. It sounds like you are giving Jake world class care. Karen in Virginia - I love "Go forward with a fierce heart". I may borrow it. Dee must have been an amazing woman. Becca - I enjoyed your spinach story so much. Woo Hoo! (the…

I caught up and have a few things to post. The hour is late and I must wake up early. I will see if I can post in the morning. Hugs, prayers and positive vibes to all who need them. You are one bunch of lovely ladies. -Sharon in Lethbridge

Like usual I am chasing you Ladies. On pg 91 now. Machka - Sending hugs, prayers, and strength Kylia - No carpet except one room. My allergies are so much better now. A Massage sounds wonderful. I better book while I still have benefits. Pat - Sending prayers for your son-in-law. It is a lot to go through. Heather - I…

Made it to pg 85 but need to take a break and get back to my list to be accomplished today. I was going to the gym today to work on my arms. I was supposed to go with Jheri but we got into a fight. Not something that happens often. I complained about something minor about Larry and about her husband bringing a cell phone…

I've read to here and there is always a lot going on. Machka - Saying prayers for you and your husband. It is scary how fast life can change. I am can't even imagine the world of worry that you are in. He is in the right place to be helped and God will guide the doctors. Please take care of yourself as he will be in need…

Thanks to all of you for your kind words and advice. Kate, Penny, Lisa, NY Karen, Karen in Virginia, Lisa, Allie, Beth, Barbie, Margaret, Janetr, Barbara, Heather, Betsy, Terry and Carol. I will probably be needy and leaning on you for support. I do have some friends here that I can vent to and be completely truthful with…

Terry - The Unicorn and the Elephant are the subjects for the Arty Party x2 tomorrow. I think they have 12 signed up for the afternoon and 6 adults for the Elephant in the Evening. I said I was surprised that they were doing it while our Home and Garden Show was on but they said it didn't really affect their event. Rye - I…

Heather - Your son training for a marathon would certainly give him a new focus. This could be a very good thing. Lisa - I'm glad that the son is gainfully employed and wishing the very best for him. KJ - 3 lbs down, how awesome is that? Doing the Happy Dance with you. Lenora - The news about your wrist is encouraging.…

Heather - It sounds like it was a busy, happy time with the grands. They can be tiring though. Katla - It is tough when one or the other's health won't allow for an activity that was enjoyed together. I'm glad you have Arrow. Horses are therapeutic. I'm hoping to get up on Sugar but pretty sure that no one is going to…

Ladies, I know I have been a little MIA lately so just popping back in at pg 54. I had some other comments but they are from so long ago that they probably wouldn't have made sense. Here goes. Betty - Sending you hugs, positive vibes and prayers. Sorry that you are having such a rough go of it. Barbie- I'm glad that Jake's…

Back from Fort Saskatchewan, it is always a different kind of visit. They really need to leave their house more often. I've made it through to page 35. I didn't log for the last 3 days and my food choices were not great. I forgot to take my own fruit and veggies. They were in short supply. -Sharon in Lethbridge where it's…

Still reading. Now on pg 25. Will I catch up with you ladies?

Have read up to pg 21. I will catch up again. Trying to find a way to put up with "HER" for my son and granddaughter. SHE makes me dizzy with all the senseless chatter. I have lost it a couple times lately. It seems she does nothing but b**ch about my son and complain about everything from the time she gets in the car. I…

Look at me all the way to Page 10. The turn out for Jheri's art show was phenomenal. Some paintings sold and she was asked to do some commission pieces. The paintings will be up to the end of April. Greysyn is meeting with the mental health people. He has anxiety problems sometimes although I think he has been better…

Have to go . Will catch up tomorrow and post. Made it to page 9 Good night Sharon in the Winter Wonderland known as Lethbridge.

Wendy - Some movies I like are WarHorse, Wild Hogs, Bad Moms and The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas. Heather - The house sounds perfect for you. Hoping everything goes as you want. Mary - Vertigo sucks. Dana - I'm sorry the last 2 years have been so tough. It is a great and wondrous thing to have your own dance party. I took…

Barbara, Carol, Kylia, Katla - Thanks for your kind words and support. Penny - You work so hard. I'm sure you will enjoy those grandkids. You definitely deserve some down time. Barbie - I am glad you are so good at setting clear boundaries. I have a lot to learn. Terry - Jheri is a strong advocate for me and has been since…

Went to the doctor and I am now off work for month of March. Note says that is her opinion that the situation will not improve and that I may have to be off work permanently. First step and now to go on short term disability through my benefits or on to medical EI. After that I can continue with my application to AISH or…

NYKaren - You Rock! Losing a pound while on vacation is a feat. It sounds like you did a lot of walking. Looking forward to your photos. KJ - The teenager texted me about his guitar lesson and to talk books. Lisa - I'm glad your talk got rid of some tension. Congratulations on the weight loss. This Dukan Diet seems to be…
