We returned the loaner car today then went to Sam’s (I had a credit and wanted to get dishwashing detergent – theirs was rated the highest.) and Vince ordered new glasses. Then went to WalMart for a few things. Ginnny – yes, I totally and completely agree that anyone who has access to children (or the infirmed) should get…

Well, I went to that meeting at the church. It was about getting a background check for all volunteers. I highly doubt the church is going to pay for a background check. My guess is that it's probably around $50. I am NOT going to pay to be able to lector or count the donations. Heck, I volunteer at the soup kitchen where…

Worked then cleaned our deck since it’s supposed to get cooler later in the week. Allie – our cats always loved the laser pointer. We could sit, point the laser, and the cat would run like crazy after it. Would tire them out, too Terrri – happy birthday! M – so sorry to hear of all you tooth problems Linda – so sorry about…

Walked around the neighborhood, got over 10,000 steps. Finished the one wing of the Polish eagle x-stitch I’m making. This pattern is on 12 sheets of paper. If you don’t line them up exactly, your count is off. Honestly, I got to the 5 foot rule….if it looks good from five feet away, it’s good enough. Rusty – I’m so sorry…

Allie -- I have another way you can solve your problem of the cat keeping you awake. Get another cat to keep her company!!!!! :) Michele NC

Ginny – I will probably have any chemo gift sent here. Trying to do it with Amazon overseas, I can just see a hassle regarding international payment. If I just have whatever shipped here and then send it to her, that will probably be easiest. A bit more expensive (more, it’s more to send something to Switzerland than it is…

Did Cathe Slow and Heavy DVD (one part) then walked to Food Lion to get potatoes that were on sale for Vince and his bananas. Then we started on the pool. It’s getting there, just need to give it more time. Making yogurt right now Lanette – the prednisone was 6 one day, 6 the next, then 4 one day, 4 the next, then 2 one…

I was depressed yesterday, but I’m not today. Was able to get out in the sunshine, cut the grass, cleaned the wall from the spa into the pool, then put down Preen on the hill on the side. Guess I just needed a little sunlight. While cutting the grass it was so funny to see, Vince was in his pants with a light jacket on…

Lisa – Vince once rented a skid steer. I don’t know why he didn’t spread all the dirt we had. Now I’ll have to do it this summer because I do not want that pile of dirt. When they installed the pool, they left a pile of dirt. OK, that I can understand. But Vince did nothing about it for years. Finally, I got so fed up that…

So far, nothing special today. Vince’s new tractor was delivered. It’s raining off and on so I probably won’t get to go for a walk Annie and everyone else – I’m just fine, thanks for asking. We’ll probably take the car to be fixed either today or tomorrow Kim – what a day you had. I can understand why your mother feels the…

Went to the Y and did HIIT. As I was going there, they were doing construction and before I knew it I’d hit a barrier. Looks like the whole front bumper came off. So I came home and Vince drove me to the dentist then to Aldi. Now we’re home, I have a pineapple angel food cake in the oven for Vince then we have the condo…

Anne Michigan – you are doing so wonderful. Keep it up Barbara – no bruising or swelling by the eye. Just a burn Going to the Y tomorrow to do the HIIT, then the water aerobics but I’ll need to leave early since I have the dentist appt for the routine cleaning at 10. Then I’ll probably go to Aldi. They’re having the…

The plan for tomorrow is to do some HIIT and then take the water aerobics. Afterwards (well, actually I’ll have to leave the water aerobics early) I have a dentist appt for the routine cleaning. If they have the permanent bridge I’ll have them put it in. But honestly, I don’t think they will Lisa – thank you for telling me…

Did 30 Minutes to Fitness Your Best Body DVD then walked to Food Lion since they had Doritos on sale. I totally forgot to get Vince his bananas so I got them when I went to WalMart. Unfortunately, on my way to Food Lion I tripped and fell. The worst thing that happened is the one part of my glasses that goes to the ear…

M – the only reason I can think that they recommend you keep animals inside during the eclipse is so that they don’t look up to see what is causing the change. I’ll be especially interested in the responses you get about the flooring. I want to get rid of the carpeting at the condo (eventually) and am thinking more on the…

Barbie – books for a preschool gift would be great. Only I KNOW that Denise won’t read them to PJ, he can’t read yet, and I’m not there enough to read to him. Kim – I know PJ has a lunchbox from preschool, but a backpack might be good. Linda – for his birthday, we got PJ this remote fart machine. 5-year-olds think farts…

Oh, anyone have ideas for preschool graduation gift? Michele NC

There wasn’t much prep today. My understanding is that one of the managers did most of it yesterday. Why? I’m not sure. The only thing I can think of is that I found out it was a salaried manager who did it, and I’m guessing that corporate said “as a salaried manager we expect x hours from you”. But on the other hand,…

No work today so I got to exercise! Did the stairmaster and then took the water aerobics class. Then went to Aldi then to Ollies to see if they had the chlorinating solution for the pool which they didn’t so I’ll probably get it Sun. when I go to WalMart. Ladies: need ideas. PJ will be graduating preschool in May and I’m…

Had a nice Easter. Jess is a good hostess. She thinks she might have found a home for Eva (the other dog, the one Marnie had Jess watch “for a few days” which turned into a few months). There’s a lady in SC who seems very interested. Jess told her all of Eva’s faults (her anxiety, etc) and the lady is quite interested. She…

pip – I’m so sorry for your loss. Sounds like your mom waited for you to be there Tracey – the ortho MD said it was due to tight calves and that it would go away in 3 to 4 months. Well, because I was walking weirdly, I was getting a callous on another part of my foot. Couldn’t have that so I used the Dr. Scholl’s callous…
-
Yes, I am still alive. I think I told you about my eyes. Anyway, they got more and more sensitive to the sun (which was fun in Florida where the sun is more intense). I would wear my sunglasses in the condo! Well, a pharmacist said it sounded like allergies to her and to use allergy drops and if it wasn’t better by Monday…
-
I used the Dr. Scholls callus remover and it looks like what it does is basically pull the callus out of your foot or wherever it is. I’ll probably use it again in a few days, but it’s much much better After exercise went to Adi to return some things that we didn’t use and that I really don’t want to take home. Then to…

Did an incline workout then walked on the treadmill. No exercise tomorrow since I’ll be in the car Barbara – I, too, missed about the operation. M – oh no. Were you stressed in Canada? At least my right eye is no longer hurting, but the left eye is still burning. In one way I can’t wait to go north where this pollen…

Did a lower body total body DVD. The plan for tomorrow is to do an incline interval workout then go to Aldi to return some things, the WalMart to make return and buy a sun visor (my eyes are still bothering me) and buy gas It was pretty chilly and very windy so I cleaned and did laundry, Evelyn - hope you make it with your…

Did a spining workout toay The plan for tomorrow is to do a Lower Body Total Body DVD. Rori – I can just see you enjoying every minute My eye still hurts a bit, I think it’s more allergies than anything else. But it’s a real pain, with the bright sun down here my eyes want to close. When the kids were little we’d color…

Did a pilates DVD today. Then went for a walk (over 16,000 steps so far). The plan for tomorrow is to do a spinning workout Update: over 19,000 steps pip – I hope you aren’t so sick that you’ll miss camping Vice has actually been saying things like “are we going to go for our walk”. He didn’t say this last year, I usually…

Did a yoga DVD today. The plan for tomorrow is to do a pilates DVD. After exercise took a walk to this space park, I was just curious about it. It mostly has tributes to the Mercury program. But it was interesting just the same. The veteran’s park there is nothing. Then went and picked up some bisque from a lady here in…

On Thurs did a Kathy smith DVD, did HIIT today and the plan for tomorrow is to do a yoga DVD. There was supposed to be a launch Wed. but it was scrubbed until Thurs. Only that one was scrubbed to tonight. We shall see Played cards Thurs night Why does it seem that I’m always so busy. The guy about the bathroom came and…

Did an extreme cardio DVD today then walked on the treadmill. The plan for tomorrow is to do a Kathy Smith DVD. Went to lunch with the ladies today. Most of the things were deep fried. I just got the grilled chicken salad with just water to drink. No dressing. Next week they’re going to this place we went to last year and…
