    Faith:  Glad you stayed home, too funny there was a vote on it!  We told me Dad at least next time do Not worry about going home to shower once you've determined you should be going to the ER!  geeesh!!!  Happy to hear the twins are doing well! 

    Iris:  I love that water splashing pic!  I feel like I could just jump in!  Too bad you had a bad driver when water skiing .. probably made you never want to do it again!   I'm with you still chug chug chugging up that hill!  lol

    Margo:  Thank you.  Somehow I missed your post about having a personal trainer, and then I kept reading others alluding to it.  I need to go back and read.  Wow!!!  But 5:30 A.M. ... I'd have to get up at 4:30 to wake up to my coffee first!

    Shrink:  awww, hugs to you hon.   BC, the gift that keeps on giving. Have you looked into the bathing suits with pockets for breast forms?  I had a really cute one that I already gave away or I'd send it to you if you were that size.  You might have to look hard but you can find some nice ones.  

    JoeyAnn:  Where are you hon, still on vacation? 

    I was so happy to hear of Deb C's clear brain mri results. Hope we hear the same about the spinal next week. 

    Well, I'm wiped out!  Yesterday was a long day and we lose an hour tonight .. I could use an extra hour (or 20) instead! 

    Listen to the wind howling over the ocean waves as you drift off to a safe and peaceful nights rest.

    Angelcharlene-that is a lovely beach sunset! It is almost time to get all the clocks set back. I wonder if some people do like some older neighbors did and just refuse to do it! They just "knew" by the sun,they said...I wouid forget and freak-out that I am not on time. This was before the "age of digitalism"! LOL I just noticed my month and date of my birth with the number of posts-so,it was the right moment to post here.Smile

    Faithandfifty-sounds like your family will have lots of time for being together. Great you have food and heat as those are such imp assets. Hoping for a big melting there.

    Shrink-thinking of you and your trip. I know that the beach will be beautifu and for me,it is just getting it all together and organized for trips.

    Margo-your exercise schedule is awesome. I remember that if I got up and ran on the treadmill or walked(early before work),it really made a difference with the energy level and I felt better at work. I would love Jayne's address and thanks!

    Hi to everyone and have a happy Sunday! It was so windy that the trashcans were taking flight today! Undecided

    All the best to all of you Beach Buddies!

    Good morning beach beauties!  I found a really nice spot on the beach for us today.  Come and let the ocean work it's magic and soothe all your physical and mental aches away.

    Iris, love your glittery beach!  That's really pretty.  Wind was howling here too, it's finally died down. 

    Candie, hugs to you.  Sorry for your loss. 

    Audrey had a friend sleepover and I think they stayed up most of the night.  The downstairs looks Nothing like when I went to bed.  They had a party .. streamers and balloons all over the place!  Oh to be 9 years old again!

    Good morning beach buddies !!! The sun is shining sooooo bright here today, too bad it's only 16 degrees !!!! The snow is piled HIGH, and the wind is picking up, so I decided to come to the beach !! I love this place.



    Charlene, I remember my twins 9 th b-day, I lost my mind, and let them have a sleep-over !!!! Never again !!! 12 9 year old boys all night, WHAT WAS I THINKING ?????



    Candie, sorry for your loss.



    Time for more coffee---Have a beautiful day---everyone

    It's a beautiful sunny day here also Barb!  That's too funny about your twins 9th birthday .. Audrey had 10 8-9 year old girls sleepover for her 9th birthday party.  I was actually thinking it would be easier then doing a skating or bowling party ... NOT!  I feel exactly as you did ..What was I thinking and Never again!!!  I'll let her have sleepovers but maybe 3 girls tops!  LOL

    Faith, just because I paid for the trainer AND set a series of appts. doesn't mean I'm committed! Seriously though, I need to do something. We did a great one yesterday at the gym using an exercise ball against a wall, and I saw it on TV last night. I do love my exercise ball. Going to look for a medicine ball now.

    Shrink, I can't remember who sent who the halter type bathing suit - I think it was Angel who sent it to Marsha, and it worked out great. How about a tankini - that's what I have - low enough to cover the tummy, but I can still go to the bathroom easily, and the neckline is high enough that it looks fine.

    Hope everyone is enjoying the beach today. It's about 68 or so today and beautiful outside.

    Char, I love that beach scene.  To me that is relaxing.

     Iris, it's a toss-up between your beach scene and Char's, but whatever, they're all perfect.

    Oh where oh where is a beach.................rephrased to say........oh where oh where is a WARM beach?  Michigan is the state of lakes.........but you can't put your toes in them until mid summer!!

    Iris:  Glad to see you are back in the land of 'big screen!' Keep taunting me with the pics and inviting me down and you may have a stranger at your door one night!!.....................ahhhhhhhhhhh  forgot where you live!  Is Susan really heading to your place?  

    UMMMM..........you think Margos exercise schedule is "awesome?"....Honey, you need a life! JK

    Mom is okay, thank you for asking.  She is functioning and still living alone..I notice that she is slowly going down........just a combo of her conditions and age.  I had to turn all her Oxygen up to 3...Doc's orders. Love that you had to much "parental bonding" and had to leave!!  I can soooo relate!

    Barb:  Robins and Snow...........something ain't right about that!  Atleast it gives a bit of hope that spring is really on it's way!

    Faith:  So glad that your family 'out voted' you and you stayed off the roads.  PT...........you've got that right.........physical torture.........and it's good for you they say!!  I think Susan used to call it that too!!

    Okay, gotta Google Loquaciousness and see if I want to be one too......!!

    Candie:  My toenails are gone for good...........pre-bc.....I had so many problems with the two biggies and treatment never worked....had them removed twice and they grew in worse...............finally said....leave them off!!

    Angel:  Sorry to hear about your Dad, but glad that he appears to be okay. Will he follow through or be like my DH and most men and let it go? Thanks for asking about my knee..........I do think it's on the mend! I plan on going to work tomorrow.......it's a respite client........commonly called "itchy man!" Then on to PT after.........hopefully on Wed. the Doc will "release" me!

    Kinda chuckled at the description of your Dad being a smart man.  My youngest son has a (or had a) very Hi IQ..........went to a 'gifted' school in elementary until we moved..................anyhooooooo, he was such a twit (like Mother like Son!) my sister always said........."Did you ever meet a Genious with any Common Sense!"  Oh how true!  Once he hit 9th grade he followed the I don't care about anything route.........Oh yea, you've heard some of the stories about him........................but all is well with him now! (except for common sense!)

    Jasmine:  Did you get the snow in the SOUTH................I have a long lost friend that lives in Paragould..............don't have a clue where that is, just thought I'd throw it in!

    Shrink:  Do hope you enjoy your vacation to the Marco Islands!!!! A real beach, real drinks with umbrellas in them, and maybe real Cabana Boys!!

    Marsha:  Guess I missed the article someone was talking about.........You made the news again!!  Hope it was for your performance and nothing else!!

    Margo:  You go friend..............I'll chant "I will lose weight" with you.......but you'll have to drug me to get me to go to a gym at 5:30am.....I'm working on going period!

    Amy:  How are the shingles?  Sure hope you're feeling better....think I read that you were back to work.  Bring those babies to the beach.......haven't seen pics lately!

    Turkey Breast on the grill, sweet potato in the oven and fresh Green beans on the stove!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  One time a week we usually put something together like that!!

    Hugs,

    Hey Margo!

    Posting at the same time!  Got any of your low calorie recipes handy?  I just like simple.........soups and vege's and such............I just ordered some of the stuff I was using when I was on the Visa Diet last year.  SIL found a website that sells it.........so I don't have to go back to the clinic 3 times a week!

     Hugs,

    Whew. The snow plow JUST came down the street for the first time. We may be able to get out of this house in the next day or two.

    THIRTY-TWO weeks!! Today being Sunday, we get to add to the twins-total. I am so proud of her for somehow managing, with all the usual uncomfortable issues -- but nothing serious. I think her bikini days are now over as well. Her tummy looks like a map with issues.

    CharAngel: just absolutely LOVE the image of the inviting chairs under the shaded tree. I'll meet you there tomorrow for lunch.

    Iris: what's the "word" bird? Give us a good one. Nessie's waiting.

    Margaret: I think that paying for the personal trainer qualifies as being committed to the program. Keep us posted.

    Candie: sorry to hear of your recent loss, while you're already feeling so very many emotions.  Know that we are all with you in spirit.

    Barb: this is the first I've heard that you have twins. We're poised to enter that unique kingdom. Have all my fingers crossed all day, every day.

    Shrink: send us some warmth.... or a great big hair dryer -- to help melt this stuff!!

    Marsha: what's your next show?

    love, hugs, sea gulls, cabana boys & all the rest to each from A to Z

    Happy Sun Evening,Beach Buddies!

    Hope that your Sun was a good one! Here we are at the beach and waves are crashing into the shore...watch those sandcastles as they may just wash away....I was telling a friend abt this site and how much I enjoy it and the kind support here! It is nice to have a "cyber get-away"with lovely scenes and great cabana boys,even if it is "cybervision"!LOL

    Neesie...hi to you! Margo is doing the exercise for me,at 5:30AM,so that is why it is awesome! Bet you thought I was going to be joining in and I am  sort of-I will be cheering from the computer screenland...go,Margo! LOL Sorry abt your mom and I know all abt the worries as my mother fell today and had to have a trip to emerg rm(chin was glued back).It is so very worrisome;luckily,no broken bones,for her!How abt your little grand-daughter? Is she getting ready for Easter? Your dinner sounded awesome!

    Faithandfifty...I am thinking that the snow is melting and the word is:YES! Hope that the weekend has been pleasant,despite the indoor camping experiences. It always was more fun the first day,to me,than the last few. So great on the week#32,right? Terrific!

    Barb...great to see you! How old are the twins? Angel-char can probably exhange some stories with you since she is one. That has to be such a unique experience to have a twin. So,how goes the weather there and are you planning any trips soon as the snow decides to melt? I think that you were one of those having snow,this weekend?

    Angel-love that beach scene and those chairs have my name on one! Thank you for reserving them for us. That was cute abt the guest that Audrey had. I think back to some of the fun things we did as children. Playing with balloons is one that never gets old;something magical abt that! Those are truly the memories that we cherish into adulthood! I know she will be glad when the next team sport starts as she is such a great athlete! Is she doing softball this spring? I could not remember if she was?

    Margo-good for you on the exercise! I just know that my dr will say that tomorr afternoon. He nicely "suggests" it every single time and I always agree(to his hearing side,anyway) and with nicer weather,I will do my best.What exactly is a medicine ball and what do you do with it? I have seen those heavy-looking soccer-ball lookalikes. See how out-of-touch I am! Hate to tell you but I have gymitis(allergic to gyms! LOL) more like lazyitis!

    Janny-hope that your weekend went well! You always have such interesting things going on and such a cool family. I hope that the river crested such that it wasn't a flooding issue there.Craziness here-we did finally get rain-still have mandatory water restrictions,though.

    Ames-how are you doing and miss you! Hope that you will stop by tomorrow and visit. Thinking of you and your families-humans and animal friends. 

    Candie-thinking of you and hope that you felt us with you today. Take care and hope to see you here tomorrow.

    Shrink-won't be long before your trip and I am trying to flatten myself every single day to squash into the suitcase! LOL Have a great time there and be sure to get lots of photos for us.

    Must stop here...sand in my shoes song is playing and there are a few people out strolling! Take care,Beach Buddies and have a great Monday!

    Hi beach buds,

    Wentto the wake today and then we all went out to dinner.Talkedto DH this morning and he feels so bad that he couldn't come home on time for funeral. Bob, cousin who passed, started feeling sick last Aug. The dr's thought it was gall bladder,so they removed it. Nope,not it. Then they thought he had e-coli-treated him for that, nope. Then stomach issues...nope again. 4 weeks ago they finally determined it was pancreatic cancer!!! Sent him for 6 rounds of rads but he was going downhill. Such a nice man. The funeral is tomorrow on his daughter's 1st wedding anniversary. Who thought that as we watched him dance with his daughter  last year that he would die a year later. Life is strange. Thank you for your condolences.

    Charlene, oh, a sleepover...oh to be a kid again! Glad your dad is ok. I want the chair on the left. Is that a sea-gull? I love birds of any kind. I like to feed the seagulls at the beach. They like cheese doodles and they take it right out of my hands. I usually do it after 6pm when there is not that many people on the beach.Some people get annoyed. Imagine!!

    Faith,how you doing with all that snow?

    Iris, your last 2 pics of the waves are awesome.Feels so refreshing. Oh,Iris, so sorry your mom fell!!!

    Neesie, lol on your thoughts on the gym. Your dinner sounds so good.Want company for dinner?

    Shrink, how wonderful to go to Marco Island.

    I don't have to be at the funeral til 10:30 amso I am gonna spend some time doing research on help with my scripts. Margo, I will check in Prescriptions for America..thanks.

    When I talked to DH this morning, he said he is a lil disappointed with his friends. They are all boring and don't want to see any sights or do anything. He went to a casino last night to see Chris Rock by himself as the others didn't want to go. Thats, too bad, isn't it. I must admit I chuckled to myself thinking...oh,well, that's what you get for going w/out me...roflmao. I wouldn't say that to him but I am sure he knows I thought that. He has called me about 4-5 times a day. lol

    We had terrible storms here last night. I live in a small town and 8 trees were down. Wires fell on a car (no one in the car) and the force of the live electricity set the air bags off. Thank goodness it was all rain as I sure wouldn't want to be digging out of the snow. I am too into spring at this point.

    ok, gonna try to sleep. Hugs to all from A to Z.  Gonna listen to waves crashing on the beach from these great pics that have been posted and drift off to sleep.

    Hugs and prayers,

    Candie

    Hello beach buddies, --- I'm sorry I don't keep track of each and everyone, but I love all of you. I have twin boys who are 22 yrs. old. Faithandfifty, I understand your excitement---twins are fun !! I also have a son who is who is 34, and a daughter who is 31----they're getting old, not me !!!! The twins still live at home with me ----lost the older 2 with the divorce. It's a Looong story. Lots of twins among us beach buddies !!



    HUGS to ALL

    Neesie, one of the quickest recipes and it's pretty low fat is Jasmine's potato soup - ingredients - frozen hash brown potatoes (30 or 32 oz.), 2 qts chicken broth, diced onion and a package of country gravy mix.  Cook hash browns, chicken broth and onion in saucepan for about 30 minutes.  Slowly whisk in package of gravy mix (mix with a little bit of water) til thick - I usually use 1/2 a package.  The country gravy flavor has a little kick to it.  Top it with diced cooked bacon, green onions, and some cheese.....yum.

    Faith, I pay for a gym and don't go as much as I should.

    Iris, I'll show you what a medicine ball looks like - it's like a soccer ball but heavier and good for you.

    Have to run, night to all.

    Good morning Beach Ladies.  Happy Monday.  My personal pc died this weekend to I won't be around much until I get a replacement.  It was about time since the durn thing was 4 years old.  Now I can get one with a wireless card in it and not be tied to a particular spot in the house.  I'll probably be back online this evening.

    I hope everyone has a good start to your week.

    Surprise song of the day!

    Jaz: just the theme song I need for today!! Thanks, you really nailed it today. Hope that you get your technology issues all sorted out soon. Having the latest bells and whistles will be fun.

    Margaret: I am still in awe at your planning to improve yourself. I think all ya gotta do, is follow thru. (Maybe I could set that to music for myself: "All ya gotta do, is follow thru." Hear the rock beat?)

    Candie: your "complicated" story must somehow work for the two of you. It's obvious that you've been missed in your DH's guys-only adventure. I'm thinking of you today, with the funeral. My own daughter's father's funeral was on her first wedding anniversary as well. It was jarring to have both occaisions fall on the same date. Strength to you, as you sort it all out.

    (You see, I've had one of those "complicated" stories as well.) Hang in there.

    CharAngel: please do all you can for yourself in the process of playing nurse to the girls. Will be thinking of you as they head back to being at full speed. Strength.

    Barb: Sounds like you've had a "complicated" story as well. So there's another thing that we have in common, besides the twins connection. Some time we'll have to catch up: the issues of divorce/custody etc etc. Maybe we could write a book together!

    Iris: Please keep finding those 'moving' beach images. I just read an article this morning, that said if you picture being at the beach, it can literally alter your body chemistry (for relaxation etc.) The 'moving' pics make it all that much more realistic. Sorry to hear about your mom's trip to the ER. Wishing you both strength for the journey together.

    Char, as we've said before. Can't thank you enough for creating this thread. Thanks for posting. Would have worried about pirates again.

    Amy: bet you're back at work? Has the itching/tingling completely healed? My skin was 'burned/rough' to the touch for weeks after the shingles were gone.

    Nessie: I nominate you for thread stand-up comedian. I seem to always get a chuckle from your 'type' on things. Keep your wit as you continue to care for your mom.

    Shrink: Just exactly how much room are you alloting each of us in your suitcase? I'm learning to travel 'lighter' these days.

    Well they've cancelled school for all districts anywhere close by. I just called a doctor's office here by my daughter's to try to get in today.... something has gone haywire with my foot (techno term) and they said to dream on. Every office any where close is double booked and not accepting anyone new. She suggested going to an urgent care, but there's nothing like that close by. Will hope that stuff-on-hand will keep the haywireness at bay.... till the snows melt some. Life is an adventure. I'll be singing "Staying Alive" all day, thanks again Jaz.

    And to each and all: a meaningful day. Filled to the brim with stinging salt air, a steady breeze, sand in your shoes and a pretty find at water's edge. We're in this together. Sink or swim. Swim on pretty beach peeps. Swim on.

    Wonder if my library concert, planned at a distance for tomorrow, will be able to be held? How long does it take to melt off all this stuff????

    Good Morning all!  Its cold here this morning in Alabama so the beach sounds like a great place to hang out.  We had snow on Saturday morning but it didnt last very long at all.  It was pretty to see thought.

    chemo went well on Friday and the veins cooperated so that made for a good day.  I spent most of the weekend being lazy cause I just didnt have the energy to do anything else.  We did go to the farm supply store and get our baby chickens for the year.  We got 16 of them and they are the cutest little things.  We have them in the house in a tub with a heat lamp on them until they get fully feathered.  Life at my house is never dull as you can tell.  The baby goats are growing up and getting so big.  I will skip over to photobucket and post some pics shortly.  They are funny and still a joy to watch.  They jump up on their mothers back and just stand there cause they are so proud of themselves.

    Iris-that was a pretty beach pic that you posted.  I know you enjoyed yourself but its always great to get back home.

    charlene-thank you for the card you sent me.  That was very thoughtful. 

    faithandfifty-the shingles are healing but I do have the burned look on my chest area.  Every now and then I get a weird pain but other than that they are doing well.

    Nessie-do a search for WW diets cause those are low fat and high in fiber. 

    Margo-Exercising that early might be a good thing for me because at that time my brain wouldnt be awake to know what I was doing.

    Candie-life can be difficult at times and we all realize that and are here for you during the good and the bad. 

    jaz-sorry your computer died but its always fun to get a new one also except for having to write out the check.  That is never fun.

    Well thats about all my brain can remember.  I used to have such a great memory and now I am lucky to remember anything at all.

    Well the girls are lying on the floor together watching tv so I have a moment here to catch up.  My apologies if I posted this image already.  I forget a lot of things these days also!  With all the funerals lately I'm just feeling a little somber.  My one year anniversary of my dx is on Friday and I'm feeling very emotional about that too. 

    Margo: yep, I sent Marsha the halter type tankini. It was after I had reconstruction and couldn't use the suit anymore. Someday I hope to have your discipline and get myself exercising more. I'm hoping springtime will bring me some more energy. But since I'm living my life through you I'll get my exercise that way. lol

    Neesie: Thank you about Dad .. I think he'll follow through. I'm glad you're on the mend! How was "itchy man" today .. and why is he so itchy? lol about your youngest son .. so true what your sister said about genuises! lol Your meal sounds so yummy and healthy. Hugs for you and your mom.

    Faith: Enjoyed lunch with you under the shaded palm tree by the sea. You're welcome for starting this thread. I find it therapeutic as the article you read probably alluded to. No pirates lately.lol I'm thinking of you and worried about your foot. What's the matter with it? I hope you get lots of sunshine to melt all that snow quickly! What do you do at your library conceret? I choose to swim on! :)  I agree, Neesie always makes me laugh!

    Iris: Audrey surprised me and said she wanted to play soccer this spring so she's doing that and not softball. When you sign up for soccer it's for the fall and spring but she would usually drop out of spring soccer and play softball instead. She really enjoyed playing with her team in the fall so wanted to stay with them for this spring. She went outside with her friend who slept over yesterday and they were playing softball. I think she's feeling a little regretful about her decision now that she felt that bat in her hand again! I told her she can always join up again Spring 2009 but it's too late now. She loves both sports and excels at both too!

    Candie: awww, that's something about your DH's cousin. So sad about when his funeral is. I hope it went well today. My 1st daughter was born on the anniversary of her paternal grandfather's death. Then on her first birthday our dog died. She also shares a birthday with her cousin, my sisters daughter, who is 4 years older than her. Very strange! Too funny about your DH .. he obviously misses you and wishes you were there. Oh, I noticed your comment to Iris about when she joined bc.org. Mine is misleading because I had some problems with my original member name not being able to log in due to technical issues and I set up this one I have now. So even though mine says user since 12, Jan, 2008, I've really been a member since 3/17/07! Good luck with getting help for your scripts.  You feed the seagulls!  That's cool but they scare me .. Once they grabbed something out of my daughters hand when she was 4 and I thought they would take her hand off!  After that I wouldn't let her eat anymore that day on the beach  .. lol

    Barb: I have one of those looong stories too! Like Faith said, we could probably write a book! How are the twins doing? Any luck on the job front?

    Jas: I love that song .. it was in a movie that Audrey watched and she loves it too. That's cool to have a wireless card. I have one and it's nice to be able to take the laptop wherever you want to in the house! Hope you are back online tonight.

    Okay, I just had to interrupt posting this to go clean up an entire soda that my 2 year old spilled (it was my 9 year old's soda). Thank goodness for Scotch Fabricguard on my light gold chair it was spilled on! Both girls are doing much better at the moment and I had both drinking water all morning. Audrey rarely drinks soda so when she asked for one I figured it was better than nothing.

    Amy: You're welcome. Pets are always part of the family and I know how hard it is to lose one. awwww, baby chickens!! We want a picture of them too! I'm glad you had a lazy weekend. Sometimes we need them .. well a lot of times .. to replenish ourselves and get the rest we need. It's nice to see you back at the beach!

    Iris, yes we had a great weekend, basement bowling at the Owl's Club, lol!  The flooding wasn't as bad as they predicted.  We did get a load of rain though!

    Charlene, sounds like you had a tough weekend.

    Amy, the farm down the road from me has chickens.  They are always in the road.  Today when I when out, there was a dead one in the road.  That's the third one in just a couple of months.  I don't know why they don't keep them confined.  I can just see the little fluff balls in the tub!  Too cute!

    I don't have time to talk to all today, but I'm thinking of all of you!

    Hey Beachers!

    The sun is out in MI!!!!  Not to be confused with it being warm............UGGGH!

    Angel:  Sure hope the girls are feeling better......I think I always felt worse than my kids when they were sick...........I couldn't just kiss it and make it better.

    Margo and Amy:  Thanks for the low cal tips............I had read Jasmine's recipe before but didn't know it was low cal..........I make one similiar but the country gravy sounds like it would add a lot of taste..........Gonna check out the WW site for some more.

    Janny:  What the heck is 'basement bowling'?   Kinda sounds like an after hours club!!  Glad you didn't flood to bad!

    Faith:  Always good to hear from you! Stand up comedian, eh?  You obviously haven't seen me on my feet!!!!  I swear I can trip over a piece of hair on the floor!!

    Amy:  Glad Chemo isn't treating you to bad...........remember, you're kicking the beasts butt........and Chemo is helping you do that!!!!  How's Tucker? Haven't heard about him lately.

    Jas:  PC died and you're cut off from the world............bummer.....but atleast you get a 'moveable' one now!!  Not funny, but when I first read your post and you said your PC died the first thing I thought of was Personal Care Physician................are we programmed (no pun intended) or what!

    Missing many, but know I care about you all!!  Gotta hit that lounge chair and have my poofy drink before the sun goes down and the Cabana Cuties leave for the day!!

    Hugs,

    Neesie

    p.s.  Where are you Susan????????????????????

    p.s.s.  Angel...........Itchy man is indescribable.............another day....to close to dinner for details!  I'm itching just thinking about him..

    hi, i haven't been around.  I"m at work.  My co-worker will be back tomorrow so I will go back to part-time.  maybe i'll have more time.

    iris, i love the water picture.  so cool. and i agree with whoever said it.  we have song of the day so we should have word of the day.  You can educate us.

    Neese, I'm the one who came up with Visa diet.  And since you know where to get that stuff, you should share your information with a friend.  The place I'm going to, if i keep taking the pills, i do ok.  without the pills, i eat and eat and eat and eat and eat and eat.  got the picture.

    hugs to everyone.

    Susan, what "pills" are you taking?????  Do you have extras?  LOL!

    Hi there Neesie!  The sun is out here too, and it's starting to warm up.  Over the weekend we had such rain and wind.  It was incredible!  How's PT going?  Basement bowling was at the local Owl's club.  They actually have four full-size lanes in the basement! It was a crazy time!

    Okey dokey...got a new Dell laptop with wireless!  Yeehaw.  Now to figure out how to set it up.  The guy at the store kept offering to do all these wonderful setup things for me for like $50/each thing.  I said 'no thanks'.  Its like buying a used car these days with all the add on services and peripherals they try to get you to buy into.

    But first...gotta disconnect and haul the 'dinosuar' to the garage.  Where is Hulk Hogan when you need him??!  :)
