  • Hi ladies,

    I had a killer headache all day yesterday. I fell asleep at 9:30 and ot up and went to bed at 10:00. I woke at 5:20 and decided not to go to the gym. So I slept another hour. I still have a slight headache so I ht the hard coffee this morning. It is so unlike me to have a headache. Probably food/sugar withdrawl. Did good on eating yesterday. One day down and many to go. I will try to make it to the gym tonight if my DD doesn't have to go to Sam's Club to get diapers.

    Ellen, things always work in mysterious ways don't they? I can't believe all this rain. I am so afraid it is going to be a bad winter. Enjoy your tea. I just brewed a pot for iced tea later.

    Toni, I hope you get the part for your :tread; soon. I could use a lazy day. I am worn out. Can't wait to watch the BL tonight. What I would give for a week with Bob to straighten me out.

    Crystle, Any Baby yet?

    BOB, keep us posted on Kate. Hope she is improving.

    Any others that are missing, come on and post. It helps keep you OP.

    Got to get some work done, except I can't print anything until our office supplies come, I am out of yellow ink. Ugh!! Have a great day
  • Hey Girlfriends!!!

    Kate is still in the hospital, but may be able to come home today. She called me yesterday at 9 a.m. and told me she could go, so off I went and when I got there, NO DEAL.....WHen I got back home, I called her Doc and he said he didn't tell her that she could go. So, I'll be waiting from now on until they call me from the hospital to come get her. She's been a little confused, and I think that her thoughts are real to her. The problem is the heart rate and until they get that where it needs to be, I'm afraid she's stuck! She has no pain, doesn't feel bad etc.....but she doesn't understand why. She just wants to get home to see TIPPY....not me.....TIPPY!!!!

    Not much else to repot.....Thanks to all of you for keeping her in your prayers!

    BOB
  • Not yet....LO
    Little man is not here yet. I'm hoping today the doctor will give her good news. She is SO tired and big. She is normally a tiny little thing. The baby was doing all kinds of flip flops in her belly yesterday. He loves when I talk to him. I wonder what it sounds like in there...haha

    ((Everybody))

    Solly...I hope you fell better soon.

    Bob...praying Kate gets to come home soon. I know she hates being out of her home. ((hugss))

    Ellen, Toni, Chris..big howdy to ya'll too.

    Love and hugs,
    Crystle
  • Kate's home.....in her chair fast asleep. The Doc took her off of the two drugs that slowed the heart rate, but added one for dementia.....oh well...at 87 yrs old, we all tend to forget things. She's happy to be home, and I'm happy for her to be here.

    I'm off to find something to fix for supper.....maybe roasted chicken legs.

    BOB
  • Kind of a quiet day at my house. Had a small bowl of chicken and noodles for dinner, leftover from yesterday. Better get busy tomorrow and get some things done. Have a pile of laundry to tackle.

    Solly- Weren't you sad to see Mo go on the BL tonight. I couldn't believe that one girl lost 16 lbs. That was so cool. Hope your headache is gone. Hope its not your blood pressure.

    Bob- So glad Kate got to come home. Shes so lucky to have you.

    Crystle- Hope you get that baby soon.

    Have a good night all....
  • Good morning
    Yesterday was finally a good eating day. I had a few crackers but other than that I was actually OP. Tomorrow they are going to induce Britt.

    Sorry I've been lax about sharing tips. Here is a new one:

    Do You Know Your Peak Time?
    Some of us are early birds, and some of us want to shoot the early birds for being so chipper in the morning. When it comes to exercising, it's important to be aware of your body's natural clock. If you don't like waking up at the crack of dawn, then don't set your goal to go to the gym at 5 a.m. Pick the time when you feel the strongest and most energized to exercise. You will be more likely to stick to your fitness goals.


    Bob...I'm so glad you were able to bring Kate home.

    Toni...I was sorry to see Mo go but I loved is quality of charecter. My mom and I have different opinions about Tracy. I don't think she is as a bad as she seems. The lady that is out for revenge I find lacks more character.

    Hope ya'll are having a super day.

    God bless,
    Crystle
  • Good morning ladies, Got up at 5:00 am and went to the gym. I got in a good 45 minutes of exercise. I was sort of weak-kneed coming home. I was hungry. Having trouble gettin in all my calories for the day. Eating is still OP.

    BOb, so glad Kate is home. I know you will take good care of her.

    Toni, I hated to see MO go also. I think he was a good motivator and such a good person. I think he would have been good for the team. I don't care for Tracy, but that is what they want you to feel. I guess I am not into the game playing. I want those people to lose their weight more so than win the money. I thought Mo had a great motivating saying, but for the life of me, I can't remember it now. Kate doesn't have anything (dementia) on me.

    Crystle, hope all goes well for Britt today. It can be a long process. Saying prayers for all of you. Let us know when he finally arrives.

    Supposed to have the big gyno appointment today. Last week they canceled on me. So I have shaved my legs twice in weeks. I sure hope I go today.

    Guess I will get off here. It is slow but I have filing to do. Have a great day.
  • Getting my wash done and dinner cooked. Eating has been okay but not great. Its cool and cloudy here.

    Solly- Wow you're doing great so far. Getting up that early for the gym. You rock. I know what you mean about Mo. I just want them to lose weight and hate to see someone sent home.

    Crystle-I think the lady out for revenge kind of went different when it came for the vote and went with the team. But I'm with your Mom I don't care for Tracy.

    Well off to take my shower and finish dinner.
  • Afternoon Ladies,

    Waiting on the Home Health people to re-evaluate Kate. Tried to reschedule, but MEDICARE rules and regulations.....48 hr limit from discharge....I'm not feeling well today....threw up first thing (no, not pregnant!!!) and overall just not over the "yuckyness"....tried to eat some Greek yogurt and have managed to finish....

    Sorry, gotta go....

    BOB
  • Hi Ladies

    Just a quickie, almost time to go home.

    I may not work tomorrow, so I may not be back here until Monday.

    Did not go to the gym this morning it was pouring rain and I was so tired. I plan to clean house tonight and afterwards work out in the basement on my own equipment. Eating is still good.

    BOB, hope he evaulation goes well and she is improving daily.

    Toni, looks likeyou are getting things accomplished today.

    Crystle, BABY????

    Ellen: Hope you are having a great day.

    See ya later.
  • The Home Health RN didn't get here until after 6p.m.!!! Did a complete eval and eveything will begin again next week.

    Today is a sleeping day...I didn't get up until after 10 a.m. and Kate is still asleep. It's a stormy day here on the WEST COAST OF FLA...the temp is dropping and we're glad of that!

    I've got to go to the grocery...we are food bare in this house! Any suggestion on what to fix? I was thinking a beef stew and some cornbread!

    What's everyone doing this weekend? No plans on this end...TIPPY does have a SPA DAY scheduled tomorrow...she needs a bath so bad...and her nails....ACK!!! needs a good clipping!!!

    BOB
  • Good afternoon. Having trouble getting started today and its grocery shopping day so I better get my butt around. We've got a gloomy, damp day here and it makes you want to just stay in and curl up with a good book.

    Bob- Wow that RN got there late. Beef stew and cornbread sound wonderful. Wish I had a beef stew bubbling away. I have no idea what to have for dinner. I did make a pot of chicken and noodles last week that was so good. I froze the leftovers.

    Solly- Hope you're okay today. And having a good day off.

    Crystle- You must have a baby by now... Can't wait to hear.

    Okay I'm going to finish my coffee and then get busy.
  • OH my gosh we've fallen a long way. I didn't feel great today so slept in my chair most the afternoon. I'm fine now and drinking a cup of hot apple cider. Its supposed to frost tonight. Hope everyone is having a good week end.
  • A good Sunday here. Think I'll get my flu shot next week. Need to get my butt out of the early and get around. Made leftover meat loaf for dinner. It sure was good. Guess I'm alone in here.............
  • Happy Monday

    Boy they come around quickly. Had a good weekend. Got to spend 3 days with my grandson so that was the best. Eating was good, not 100% but not as bad as most weekends. The scale was about the same as Friday so I will take that. We had my great nieces birthdays at my house yesterday so I was beat last night, even though I did not have much to do with it. I made a salad and a snack and we ordered pizza and she brought brownies. Just have all those people in your house especially with little ones. I had to mop the floors when they left b/c they were sticky from spilling soft drinks. One of the little ones broke one of my favorite halloween decorations. I may be able to fix it. I was glad to see them leave. That's bad.

    Toni, looks like you were alone all weekend. We got our flu shots last week. I was getting concerned with the baby and all. Did you get stocked up on good foods?

    BOB, sounds like Kate is doing better. Sounds like grocery shoping for all. Is Tippy all nice and clean and pretty now?

    Crystle, Baby yet??????

    Ellen, where are you?

    Didn't get my lazy arse out of bed to go to the gym. I will work out at home tonight. Plan to make a pot of veggie soup after dinner. Have a great day.
