*** May 13 *** Good morning all~~ Sara - do what you must do in order to take care of yourself. If going to gyno is hell, definitely get a different gyno. Annual checkups should be fairly pleasant, and a pap sample should be unpleasant for only a moment. Sending a bucket of courage your way. Maureen - What about bicycling…

*** SATURDAY MAY 11 *** Good morning all~~ Just getting us started for the day..... *tossing beach bag onto favorite lounge chair for later ⛱️* Lana 265.4 today

*** May 10 *** Sara - So nice to hear that you have been having Dragon-free Fridays lately. That's a good start to the weekend. I fly home tomorrow, thank goodness. Wishing everyone a fabulous weekend~ Lana 266.6 today

*** May 9 *** Good morning all~~ Sara - I am thrilled for you at your being at a pre-covid weight. You must feel so good to see your efforts pay off. You have inspired me--thank you! The church efforts are paying off as well. Such good karma 💛 I was looking through my photos, and I saw once again a photo of myself that I…

*** May 8 *** Ah, Wednesday~ Today is the regular dentist for the new crown. Blech. I'm up in NYC, and the Tanita scale will be giving me my numbers for a few days. Years ago, when I was married, DH and I were regulars at the Chelsea Weight Watchers meetings. DH always did everything to excess, so he bought us the same…

*** May 7 *** Good morning all~~ Just getting us started~ Lana 266.0 today

*** May 6 *** Good morning all~~ Missy - Sending hugs for your grandmother. You are a shining blessing of hers during this most difficult time of life. 🌼 Maureen - I must have missed something in the recent past. What alerts do you get that send you to the ER? Do you have an implanted heart monitor? I had one for years,…

OMG - I have never heard of this! That's hilarious!

SATURDAY Maureen - So sorry to hear of your troubled start to the day. I hope something can cheer you up and turn things around. We are having 3 days of rainy weather here in Chapel Hill. I hope that Charlotte gets this too in order to tamp down on the seasonal allergens. I am grateful that my lower leg pain has eased up a…

*** May 3 *** Good morning all~~ Just getting us started. *🌴 tossing beach bag and mystery novel onto favorite lounge chair for the Happy Hour Party later on ⛱️* Lana 267.6 today

*** May 2 *** Good morning Missy~ That is great to hear Kiara is bouncing around as is normal. Yay! Sara - sweet potato snacks sound like a great choice! As for chocolate, look for sales on chocolate in the baking section. I get the Ghirardelli baking chocolate chips when they are on sale, and I have a very tiny bowl that…

TUESDAY April 30th Oh Missy - such news! So sorry for your loss of your uncle. Condolences to you and your mom. And your poor pupper! Which one? I keep handy that great holiday photo you shared of Kiara, Bronco, Nasha, and Karamel. Lana 268.6 today

*** April 29 *** Just a quick check in.... Maureen - Ice your knees! My sister swears by it. 🤗 Sara - Keep up your knitting projects - my sister always has multiple projects going at one time. 😁 Time for bed & reading. Lana 265.4 today

*** April 28 ** Good morning everyone~~ Maureen - Congrats on your hike and on your good, long sleep! Good for you! You have at least two whole months to get ready for the surgery in July 👍🏻 It's time for me to make some lunch. I need to be well-fed before going to an "ice cream social" in my neighborhood. A couple of…

*** April 27 *** Good morning all~~ Sara - Thank you for wrangling the Cabana Boys for the Friday Happy Hour yesterday. 🌴 I was snoring in the corner. ⛱️ Time to whip up some breakfast.... BBL 265.6 today

Maureen, For me cruising is a wonderful, very relaxing escape: it is so restful to be on the water, at sea, and feeling the waves. There was no grocery shopping, cooking, or dishwashing for two whole weeks. I got to spend two weeks enjoying the company of my very best friend of 50 years. She lives in Wyoming, and we try to…

*** April 26 *** Good morning all~~ Welcome to jcawelti 🌷 I find it helpful to journal* my food-days. I can clearly see where I am making not-so-helpful choices when I think I'm "eating right". I only write down my food - I do not count the calories or track any food exchanges or "points", which I always always failed at.…

*** April 25 *** Good morning all~~ Sara - I hear you on the disliking being told how to rate something. Is this rating business something new? Maureen - You must feel awful if you can't smell or taste anything. I assume you were tested for Covid. Covid aside, they should do a culture test to pinpoint what exactly you have…

Good afternoon all~~ Sara - sending you good vibes for the manager meeting today. Maureen - I hope that the antibiotic does its job pronto! I'm going to make some soup and try to take a nap. 🌴 Waves to all who stop by later on 👋🏻 Lana 270.8 today

*** April 20 *** Good morning all~~ Sara - How did the meeting with your manager go? As for "eye candy", are you watching soccer, or are there persons of interest in your neighborhood? Maybe the landscaping crew? 😁 I am very much looking forward to getting home (late Monday night). This has been a fabulous vacation with my…

*** April 14 *** It's 4PM right now, and I am Hungry, Angry, and Tired. Dinner isn't for another 2 hours? Time to scrounge for fruit and other snacks. Lana

*** April 12 *** Hey Y'all~~ Checking in. ....will go back and read after I've gotten some coffee! *waving at Cabana Boy for some black coffee 🌴* Lana

Hey Y'all~~ Just a quick check-in. Sara - I hope work gets better somehow. Maureen - Sending good vibes to feel better very soon. Welcome Chloe and waves to Missy!!!! Lana

*** April 7 *** Good morning all~~ I am packed and leaving for my two-week adventure with my bestie from college. I will be seeking out fish and plenty of veggies and not so much with the sweets. Have a great day everyone 🌼 Lana 270.0 today

Thursday April 4th~~ Hello All~~ Just swooping by to check in. Long day. Home at last. Head and left ankle are hurting. Time to put feet up. Lana

*** April 3 *** Good morning all~~ Just getting us started. Lana 267.4 today

*** April 2 *** Good evening all~~ Today was a travel to NYC day. Tomorrow is dentist to start to replace an old crown. Ugh and blech. Lots of rain here and I'm hearing something about a storm? Missy - will you be having a nor' easter? Waves to all who stop by~ Lana 270.2 today

*** April 1 *** Good morning all~~ Beware of tricks and pranks and whatnot today!! 🤣 Lana 270.2 not a trick 🤦🏼‍♀️

Hey Y'all~~ I hope you all had a good day today. It was beautiful in NC. Time to go to bed..... Lana 268.0 today

Good morning Missy~~ There must be something in the air on the east coast: I too am going in the wrong direction. Time to turn that around! I've got fresh vegetables in the fridge. What is so hard about cutting them up and cooking them? Gah! Into the kitchen with me right now to prep some asparagus and some zucchini!…
