IT's Saturday! I love Saturday's

Whoo hoot! Great job for the Fabulous Fosters and Marvelous Michelle!

So proud of you and I was walking with you in spirit, while I was in my garden this morning!

Hugs & love,
Barb

Hi Rhonda and Cali Crew,

Wooh Wooh to Michelle and Rhonda's crew for the 5K.  What a successful day! Be sure to watch the 5 car parade . Small town parades are the best!

Maureen and Lu, I hear you on the sinus problems and infections. I use to get these pretty regularly, but I seem to be having a break for now. Believe it or not I went to a chiropractor that Stanford sends their chronic ear and sinus sufferers to and eversince, I haven't had sinus probs.

Becky, good luck in finding a good med. I've struggled with depression and still do, but the intensity of it seems to be a lot less.  With your hernia problems though, I could see why you're depressed. It seems like a normal response to the challenges you're having. Get well soon!!!

I have a ton of errands on tap for today. My expections for how much I want to get done might not be realistic. I am also going to a friend's birthday party tonight which should be fun.

Enjoy Saturday everyone! Do something fun

MsBlues

Good Saturday to all!

Rhonda and Barb, you are not going to believe this.  Yesterday I made this big deal about making up my side of the bed remember, well I went into my bedroom and the covers on my side of the bed were pulled down some.  Now I knew I had made my side and I knew I was not going crazy and my husband was not home to mess with my head.  Well I made it again and went about my business.  Then I went in to take a nap and the covers were pulled down even farther and piled up.  I am like o.k. what is going on here.  Then I remembered that my lab, Indie was on the bed, she must have pulled them down to get the cool sheets.  LOL 

Well today is more of the same resting and cleaning. I really need to clean my living room.  I have been doing the dishes everyday and one other room a day.  Ryan came over yesterday and I have his toys everywhere now.  I don't mind I love to see him play.  I need to teach him to clean up after himself here though, he does it at home and his other grandmother's house. 

I walked a mile again today!

Everyone have a great day!

Evening Rhonda and Cali gang
Well, I didn't know if I should go ahead and post today or wait until tomorrow and kill 2 birds with 1 stone...but I am just too proud of myself today so you get to hear from me both days LOL

First!  Congrats to Rhonda and family and Michelle T---completing a 5k! A wonderful accomplishment!!  Proud of both of you!!!

Becky....I so hope you get to the bottom of the swelling...doesn't sound good to me :-(   Work just needs to 'deal with it'...it's not like you volunteered for more surgery!  But seriously, they'll understand...somethings just have to take priority..your HEALTH being one of them ;-)  Praying for a speedy remedy, dear lady!

Lu and all others suffering with sinus issues...sure hope and pray that you are on the mend quickly.  Besides the breathing issue, I'm sure the headache that goes along with stuffed sinuses is not any fun either.

Now....why am I proud of me???  I did not turn to food when my emotions (anger and frustration) went off the charts this morning!!!  I woke up at 6am--(so much for a 'day off' or sleeping in!) still upset over something that happened last nite after work.  Instead of fixing a breakfast that I knew I wouldn't be able to finish, let alone stomach, I started my laundry,(and finished all 5 loads by noon!) went outside, gathered up and organized all the recycles getting them ready to turn in, washed some dishes after making myself a protein drink for a mid morning breakfast, went to the bank, went to the recycle place but it was too crowded to wait my turn and then came home,  sat down and wrote my sister a long venting email (she wasn't the cause of the emotions) .  After that, went to Apple Hill on the scooter getting home around 7pm tonight. The incident hasn't been dealt with and the 25ft gorilla is still sitting in the front room being ignored, but at least I'm in control of my behaviour!!!  My lunch was a pulled pork sandwich sans the bread and dinner was 4turkey meatballs with a couple of tablespoons of catsup. ^_^  This whole day has been a huge FIRST for me! Besides not going ballistic and throwing a huge tantrum, I DID NOT turn to food...I DID NOT give in to my childish behaviour and pacify myself with sweets and carbs nor did I turn to my cross-addiction of hitting the thrift stores spending money I need elsewhere.  My 'adult' self knows this issue will work itself out eventually; I don't need the self-lothing that would follow if I gave in to my 'child'.  So, yes, I am patting myself on the back....today I remained in control...tomorrow may be a whole different story...but TODAY...I have tasted Victory! And it is sweet in itself ^_^
See ya tomorrow...in my book, you ALL are PRICELESS!
