Good Morning, gang . . . still no sunshine around here, but at least my internal sunshine is pretty much in place. :cool: Yesterday finished up pretty good. Calories around 1400 to help make up for Wednesday's 2300. Only exercise was a little mall-crawl; but every little bit helps. ;) If I can manage another fairly low calorie count today, I'll be back on track for the week. Unfortunately I was up a little early with a BS reading of 3.8 (68) at 3:30 am and I'm a little tired even though I did go back to sleep for a couple of hours after I had a little early brekkie. Hopefully everything will be all balanced out by the end of the day. :^:

Hi, Glen. Glad you're here. Obviously you are up pretty early this morning too. :hug: Hope you are still enjoying your course.

Okay, the rest of you sleepy heads, time to get a moving and a shaking. :carrot: See you soon.

Good afternoon everybody . . . wherever you are hiding.

Rosey . . . it is definitely a new day . . . and hopefully your little adjustment will get things moving again. Extra water usually helps too. :hug: You know, I'm not too sure where "senior citizen" starts any more. Always remember that you are only as old as you feel; and that seems to be something else that changes from day to day for me.

Hope to see you all really soon, gang. Keep moving and shaking. :carrot:

Yippee for you, Rosey. :hug: Sometimes our bodies don't like to follow the 'rules'. In other words, I don't think anyone knows why we lose the way we do. Only 'basic truth' I can think of . . . keep doing the right stuff and the right stuff will eventually happen. :D

akrosey49 05-07-2006 02:15 PM

Hi Rosey :hug: . . . Hi Judy :hug: .

Yep, I missed this morning. Been busy working away on my quilted clothing projects. Got quite a bit done. Tomorrow it'll be back to the infamous work-project. Weather has been beautifully sunny and cool today. Just the way I like it. :cool: It's supposed to continue the same for the next few days, too.

Broke the carafe to my coffee maker yesterday and will have to get a new one quickly. Funny thing is, I drink tea more often than coffee but as soon as I know I can't have any, I really start craving the coffee. :dizzy:

See you tomorrow, chickies. Hopefully some more of the group will be around again by then. Keep moving and shaking and heading in that great downward direction. :carrot:

Hi all!

Back from Boise, didn't find property that we liked, so we are on the lookout again. Eating has been bad, bad, bad.

It's the big 3-0 today, doesn't seem real that I'm switching decades! Aren't I supposed to wake up and feel 30?

Hugs,

akrosey49 05-08-2006 01:58 PM

Hi, all. I don't post on weekends because I don't have a computer at home. It was warm, in the 70s here today. Almost too hot for me. I haven't been good with eating and afraid to face the scale. Intended to get back on the wagon today but didn't. It's going to be a bad week. I have a farewell lunch on Wednesday at a restaurant that serve 50s style restaurant food -- everything's fried or covered with sauce.
Meowee - don't work too hard. Rosey - I hope you get some sunshine and flowers soon. Josian - Happy birthday. I know what you mean about moving into another decade. I turned 60 a few months ago and it was almost as traumatic as turning 30. But now I'm used to it and I don't feel that old. In my head I'm still 32 (and all I want to do is boogaloo). (Sorry that was an old Ringo Starr tune.)

I have had a pain in my one toe off and on since last nite. It was so bad at times last nite I don't fall asleep until 4,had to get up at 630. Had it a few times during the day and now its back. Any ideas?

Hi all. :)

Day after birthday blues, trying to get some housework done before heading off to work. I have an SAI meeting tonight too, supposed to sing but my head is all congested. hopefully it will clear up before I go.

I refuse to step on the scale until I get this whole hormone thing figured out. I have appointments next week.

Hugs,
