Hi Ladies,
I am still here, just haven't taken time to check in. I was just reading and catching up on all the post. It sounds like everyone is staying on plan and making progress.
Congrads to Meg and Dan on their anniversary. Your ring sounds beautiful Meg. Dan sounds like a keeper! My dh and I were married 44 years on June 13th. It's amazing how quickly the years go by Also Congradulations on quiting smoking.
Dahlia, your grand daughter's bedroom sounds beautiful. She will want to stay with you every night!
Meg and Dahlia you both sound so organized. I wish I could be like that. I am always struggling to get organized.
Meg you mentioned getting your christmas cards. I desided to make a family christmas card on my computer this year, and it came out very nice. On the front I put a picture of our house in a snow scene, on the back I put recent pictures of everyone in our family with my dh and myself in the middle and our children and grandchildren all around us. And in the middle section I put three pictures of our 4 kid from various christmas when they were little, along with a message about the memories of christmas past and wishing a merry christmas from our home and family to their home and family, etc. Also asking for a prayer for our service men and women who are away from their families this holiday season to keep us safe and free in our homes. I made my labels on the computer and put them on the envelops and each day I print a few cards and put them in the envelops so when the time comes they will be all ready to go. I have printed about 50 so far.
Tomorrow is my 64th birthday and I was supposed to lose 10 lbs by then. That was my challenge to myself, and I didn't do it. My scales haven't moved!
However-although I haven't lost any pounds, I must be losing inches because over the last couple of months I have noticed I need to keep pushing my watch further and further up my arm to keep it from being to loose and my ring got so big I had to stop wearing it after it fell off and I nearly lost it.
I haven't been walking on my treadmill this summer but I am going to start today. Also last night I went to a exercize class at the school pool. It was a lot of fun and I didn't mind it in the water. They have it 3 times a week. I think I will go as much as I can.
Terry you must have really worked that treadmill, to wear out the motor. Great job! I am glad you were able to get it fixed so you can keep it up. I hope I can get myself motivated to work like I was doing before. You are a great inspiration!
Well I had better stop writing and start working, then maybe I can get my house and my self organized. You all inspire me to try harder!
Hi to anyone I missed, may we all have a op day!
