Margaret: Yes, yes, yes re Nestor's book BREATH. I read it 4-5 years ago and it changed my life. Life is breath. Breathing is life. This…
  • Yes. We tried RC wet and kibble yesterday. He ate it cautiously then was a bit burpy afterwards. But otherwise I'm not seeing any adverse reaction. His blood pressure is normaI, yay! I welcome everyone's advice, input and moral support.
  • <3 <3 <3 Much love and energy heading to all of you who are feeling stress, pain and/or helplessness. Spent the morning catching up on the last 10 days of your posts and wild murder mystery. It's cold, snowy and my hips are sore from working 8 hours at last night's hockey playoff game. So, since I've gotta rest, I'm doing…
  • Happy day, Ladies. Count me in the LVP camp. Originally installed a plank with a cork veneer in living room. Looked gorgeous for about an hour. Took almost no time before Mars' Claws made first scratches. Luxury Plank Vinyl floors in the bedrooms look and feel great. And scratchproof! Lisa: Clockmaker and bricklayer. I am…
  • Beth: Hugs and strength to you as your mom's dementia steals away her quality of life. It's awful to watch. Carol: My sympathy on the loss of your brother. Lisa: Thanks for the link for compression socks. I think with the amount of time I spend standing at my job I should have gotten these a year ago. Heather: So glad you…

  • Machka: Hugs to you. Let those tears flow. Your challenges since Rowan's accident have been monumental' and you have handled it all with grace. May the next 6 years just be better and better.... Rori
  • Yes, yes, yes to these stretches and many more. In October, I started going to StretchLab, a studio devoted to providing 25 min assisted stretch sessions, one on one, based on your needs. For 2024, I chose STRETCH as my word of the year because the added focus was really helping me with a variety of niggling aches, pains…
  • Hi Friends. I'm on page 17 and working to catch up. But wanted to pop in here and let you know the big snow storm has deposited over a foot of heavy wet flakes here in my scenic corner of the Colorado foothills. The trees outside our condo are sagging under it all, and we have about another 15 hours of snowfall before it…
  • Kim: My heart hurts for your loss of Levi. (((hugs))) Annie: Keep on keeping on. I'm in the same boat as you. Up 5 pounds since Christmas...gah! Have been slacking on cardio in favor of stretching which burns even fewer calories than walking Mars the Leash Loving Cat. Vickie: So sorry you have to let the new hire go.…
  • Just got back from a beachwalk with Tina. It was such an enjoyable visit. We stopped midway for liquid refreshment and to scan the horizon for whales. I saw 2 spouts! Today is last full day of my California Dreaming adventure. Covid and colds have been running thru my family so haven't spent any time with them. Tonight we…
  • Tina: I accepted friend request and sent you a message. LMK if you haven't gotten it. Kylia and Ginny: So happy to you got to meet in person. Any photos? Lisa: Ten years????

  • Annie: That story of the strangers coming to your door is a short story waiting to be written. Hilarious! I think of you daily as you move through the rigors of your mom's memorial and caregiving for your dad. He may not express appreciation, so on his behalf I will. Bless you, dear heart. The discussion on pelvic floor…

  • Pip: I love Calendar Boy Yogi! Congratulations. Lanette: Sympathies to your sister and nephew and YOU! Annie: If you haven't researched this yet, may I recommend you get versed in the art of the therapeutic lie? For our loved ones with dementia, we can only meet them where they are, then using artful fibs, "redirect" their…
  • Annie: You are so brave and compassionate to begin palliative care for your mother. I have had only amazing experiences with hospice care. I suggested it my friend Amy's husband in Poconos, but it was too late. She passed in the hospital ICU. 😥 Tina: My sympathies on the loss of your dear friend. Rori Colorado Foothills
