Hate the new layout.
I rreally don’t like the new lay out at all. Too confusing and certainly not as user friendly as the old way.
Sorry I have been MIA, life has a way of getting in the way of blogging. And with my boring life, I really had nothing to report.
Nothing has changed with my son and DIL. Divorce is still in the talks, but then they are also talking about coming to visit in Sept….I think it would be nice if they could remain friends. But I don’t see that happening. I think with her periods of insanity and rages and then the lulls, that she really doesn’t believe he will leave. And she think she hates him, but if he goes she will really hate him and that is so sad because they have been such good friends and I know he cares about her.
And then of course there is Courtney :( Just once it would be nice to see a happily ever after.
Diet wise I am okay, not great but okay. I have been watching calories and wrting down EVERY THING I eat, and wow…..it is amazing how little it takes to make those calories sky high. It has been a real eye opener to me, so really am trying to watch it and so far have lost 4 pounds just doing that. Eating everything but just not allowing myself to go over 1600 calories a day.
The hormones are doing well. I had to lower the dose of testosterone as it was causing oily skin and breakouts. No beard thou…hahaha! If any of you are going thru menopause or perimenopause, I really encourage you to read “ageless” by Suzanne Somers. I know she is an actress and should know nothing about hormones, but believe me when I tell you she does. That book helped me so much, on how to approach the doctor, on what I should be looking for and asking for, and what my body needs. I feel great. I feel like someone gave me back 10 years. And my hair no longer falls out and I find that my stomach pouch is shrinking……WTF Now her book is not the bible and she does have some way out there things, but for the most part she is right on. My doctor has been great and is also open to trying these things, and the best part is my pharmacist also read her book and is really into compounding hormones…..how righteous is that?
I hate this new layout! Fuck
Now if I was Ruby Jean, I could probably say that really nicely…..but fuck!
Hubby goes to Honolulu on the 25th for the start of the three days a week he will be spendin there. Money is not solidified yet, but so far the talks are good. He better go fast or he will be smothered in his sleep one night.
Well best get back to work……yawn!

Keepin’ my fingers crossed for DH - let the money be good and the workload be manageable…..
xxoxoxoxoxoxo dear friend - as always
Hope you don’t really think I am such a priss? Really, I swear with the best of ‘em, Dag Nabbitt!
Love,
Ruby
ps…you take care, okay? You know more about the real true deal when it comes to our health…I so often wish for someone like you to ask for advice…
Hey Shannon
I agree with you. I hate the new layout. The first thing I did when I logged on was furrow my brow and say WTF!!! After that, I wanted to catch up with everyone.
I am so sorry to hear about your son and DIL. It is always sad when a couple divorces. But in your son’s case, it may be the best for him and the baby. I know how much you want to make it better for him. Trust me, you’re being there means everything to him. And he knows he can count on you for anything and everything in the world.
I am so happy to hear DH is going to be working OUT OF THE HOUSE! It will be so good for him not to mention what it will do for you. Trust me, I know many men who let their wives take care of them. I think they grow them in California. Sorry if you got one of ours. But this is a big step for him and it sounds wonderful. Plus to think he will be making some money. That always helps.
I have missed you. I promise not to MIA
Love, Bobbie
Well let me throw in my 2 cents worth as well…I DON’T LIKE THE NEW LAYOUT EITHER!!!!
Sorry to hear about you son and dil. My son and his wife divorced but stayed best friends for a year and now they are talking re-marriage…so there is always HOPE!! I pray they can work it out…especially for Remy’s sake!
Don’t feel too bad about the diet slip…I am right there with ya. I have gained about 8 pounds since my surgery..and I HATE that!!
You (and hopefully I) will get it back together and get our butts back in gear.
Hope u have a great week!!!!!
Hugs,
Judy
