Good morning to you all! I had a strange day. Lots of dizziness and light headedness. I was shaky all day too and couldn't figure out why. The dizziness had started the evening before, but I thought maybe I was just tired. Anyway, long story short, my bp had dropped to 92/46 and since I had taken my bp meds yesterday, it made it worse so I am not taking today's and possibly tomorrows and keeping an eye on it. I took it this morning because I haven't felt dizzy (it was so bad I had to sleep in the chair last night) and it is back to normal so I will just monitor it all day long.

My lovely salon person told me I should have called her and she would have come and cut my hair at home!!! Now this is Supercuts and for someone to be that nice I was totally shocked. I told her it was ok, that I am doing well except getting tired still. I just couldn't believe the offer though.

I will post replies later, but wanted to check in. Oh and Maggie, call me either. The Faye thing started years ago when I was being harrassed by someone here at the site so I had Suzanne give me a new account and everything and used my middle name. For a very long time I didn't use avatars or anything until everything settled down so feel free to use either now.

Everyone have a very good Sunday. I am going back to my chair for awhile I think.

Good afternoon, ladies. 77 degrees but getting ready for a storm - again!

Had a nice day today - went to 11 o'clock Mass then to a going away luncheon for a member of Curves who is moving to Miami (husband is in the Coast Guard). Lunch was at Cheeseburger in Paradise. I had 2 mini cheeseburgers (about 2 bites each) and the house salad so I could indulge in a piece of Key Lime Pie - it was small - my big splurge. Having a crab cake, corn, and salad for dinner later.

Just saw some lightening so have to get the computer turned off!

Have a good Monday tomorrow!

Not a whole lot going on here at Chez Gail. We'll be grilling steaks in about an hour. I'm just sitting here watching tv and surfing the internet. Earlier this afternoon, DH and I drove down to Chestertown, MD. It's a small town along the Chester River. It's a old little town--saw a house built in the mid-1770's. We fell in love with this little town a few months ago. We like walking the streets and around the marinas of historic towns. Very relaxing.

Maggie, how long have we known each other? Would you say 1999?

Jean, you did quite a lot of traveling this morning. DH loves the aquarium. He says the same thing--its calming. Me? I just knit! I bet it wouldn't take much for you to learn how to knit something other than squared or rectangular.

Faye, be careful! Your bp sounds scarey. Should you phone your doctor? Isn't it refreshing to find someone that is willing to do things beyone the norm?! I think that was really sweet of your hair dresser volunteering to come to you.

Susan, a Cheeseburger in Paradise has opened up near the mall here in DE. I haven't been there yet.

Well, I need to do some laundry. Tomorrow I will be babysitting my little grandson. I'll be at his house; not mine.

Everyone have a good evening!

Good morning. Today I babysit the little guy. I go to my oldest daughter's house. I like babysitting but I don't like sitting all day at her house and we live too far apart for her to bring him to me or for me to go get him and drive back home and then take him in the evening. This will be a looooong day for me. I won't be home until about 7pm tonight. When gasoline reaches a certain $$$ for a gallon I won't be babysitting because I will not be going many places. I agree with you Jean about babysitting over there rather than here at my home because let me tell you (and I know you know this) a one-year-old-fast-crawling-almost-walking-very-curious baby gets into EVERYTHING. However, all I do over there is play with the baby, knit, read, and watch tv. It's b-o-r-i-n-g. Don't get me wrong, I love to read and knit but I don't like sitting all day long.

Last night Wayne grilled steaks outside. I boiled some corn on the cob go with it. And I fixed a tossed garden salad. Healthy meal...right? Yes, I weighed the steak and it was lean. However, everytime I eat beef the scale is up the next morning. Frustrating. But I will not give up what I like to eat and I know the weight will come back off.

Jean, I hope Ernie has found his way home. Even though he has not been outside (until now) I'm sure he will find his way back. Sam's Club has bbq that Wayne loves.

Maggie, ohmygosh...10 years?! Yes--you were in Idaho! Both Wayne and I love historic old towns. We do a lot of walking reading the plaques on the homes. Chestertown will be celebrating the town's history this weekend--they will be having a "tea party" out on the Chester River, and a lot of colonial events will be going on. We plan on going back on Saturday.

Well...I need to get going. Gather up my stuff and head on out. It will take me 45-60 minutes to get there. I may be able to go on-line later at their house if he takes a nap--he's not always in a napping kind of mood. Love that little guy. If I don't get back in here, everyone have a great day! Stay on your program. Later this week I'm going to post a macaroni salad recipe--it's a WW recipe and I always get compliments every time I make it.
