WHATS HAPPENING MONDAY

You all wont believe it, but I did nothing at all yesterday,,,,,nothing , lol I didn’t feel well after  all the leg cramps....it wasn’t just my calves but all the way up into my hips and down into my feet. , the other day I had the same thing  happen but then it was in my hands and and arms and even my chest or stomach area...now that really really hurt. I have checked online a lot today and it can be a lot of things. One thing I see that it might possiblely be is back problems. Like pinched nerves. Which I know I have. So maybe I need to go see my ortho guy again , lord he is going to think I want him to do everything about my bones lol

 

Everytime I have gotten up and started to work in the house I could feel my muscles trying to cramp up....my neck and upper shoulders did it a couple of times.so I quit.

I used bio freeze on it and it would stop it..

 

Boy I sure get boreing when I don’t work outside lol .

 

SUSAN: Im glad that your dad hasn’t broken anything , they have a hard time  remembering that they cant do things. Is such a shame that state interferes so much ...they don’t care if they fall or not ....

Oh wow aren’t you proud of your brave hubby now????

Everyone listen up , Andy found those two black snakes back up at his house and took the rake and carried them off by himself. I told him they are coming up there because of the rabbits more than likely...and the next time they came up that we may have to put them in a box and take them off somewhere else. Last year I had one that lived by my pond in the back yard . he kept the rabbit population down.

 

 

SUSIE:::::: did you go to the city wide garage sales in Harrison yesterday? I was going to go with Brenda(who lives there ) but my friends came down so we didn’t get to go. Wish we would have gotten our friends to meet us down there and gone there instead of to a show in Branson. I think they would have enjoyed it .

Do you know as long as we have lived in the area we have never been to SDC...or as Joe calls it Steal your dollar city lol

 

 

JO:::::: well are you ready to go back to work today???

Yeah I know about restless legs. That is no fun but I don’t take ambient or xanax ....as a nurse I don’t like either one of those for anybody. Seen too many bad things from those two meds. Xanax is one of the most additive meds ive seen. So be careful of that one too.

 

SUGAR:::::sorry about the pain in your side and the few pounds of weight regained. You will figure it out im sure. If the pain keeps it up you need to go see about it ok?

 

That is great that Chele is in Fla for a while. Is she on vacation or visiting her friend there.

 

I would probably have thought PP was better if I had felt well anyway. And me sitting in the dark and trying to stay awake. Lol isn’t going to happen

 

 

 

PIXI:::: hey good to see you girl. Have missed you. 

You know that is one thing that I do eat every morning a nana. i love them for sure. .

I also take a potassium pill every evening. On my blood levels the other day it showed my potassium and magnesium and calcium were all top notch. 

Thanks for being concerned.   Don’t be a stranger.

Are you still working 2 jobs like you were?

Well I think I know what the weight gain is...I havent had a visit from AUNT FLO in 6 months and day before yesterday she showed up...just for a day but I think that is what it must be..I sure hope she goes away for good this time! lol

I woke to a leg cramp this morning and my calf is still soar feeling now! OUCH! So I cant imagine having that all over sis..you better get to a Dr

Susan, wow!!!! Congrats on 65 pounds. That is a great thing for less than 3 months. What sizes are you in now?   My party is just about ready...just a few more details to work out.

Well, this has to be quick this morning..got some things to do before I leave for the pool...

Everyone have a great day!

Good morning!  What a fantastic weekend!  I looooove having all this energy.  I don't want to stop to sleep. ;)   This was Franks first weekend off and we packed it full.  BBQ at friends, we went to flea markets in Seymour, went to Fair Grove and out to lunch with my parents, I had an open house.  Whew, it was busy.  Maybe its the 120 lbs weight loss, maybe its the Click LOL  I made that buffalo chicken dip to take to the bbq and everyone went crazy, its so good, I'm going to make more today.  I eat it on the new ritz, baked crisps.  Delish! 

Susan! way to go with the weightloss! YAY! I know you are doing good and feeling better.  I can't wait to make the fauxtato salad, sounds yummy! See you at the next meeting ;)

I hope everyone has a wonderful day, only 3 more days of school! YAY then I won't have to get up at the crack of dawn to get Jade there.  ;) Lou

 I can't believe I was so close to all those yard sales and didn't notice. My friends live just North of Harrison and I didn't see signs I would have shopped for sure.  Oh well when I go to SC I am shopping. My MIL is going to take me shopping. She is so great about that. Last summer I only got three outfits and she was disappointed. I knew I was planning surgery but she didn't. I don't know if I should buy stuff too small or not. I hope to keep losing but do not know how long it will last.
Guess I am getting worried the fairy tale will end. I am still eating good I think but I have added carbs back to my diet. By carbs I mean bread and occasionally pasta. Potatoes do not seem as good as they used to be so they are not a problem at all. I am sure I have to much fat in my diet.

On my so called diets of the past after five or six months I lost my drive or will so to speak and started falling back in to old habits. I am trying not to do this now. I can relate to Angie. There are some days I would be happy to just sit and eat. Other days I do not want to eat at all.

This week I may be staying at my DS's house. I am trying to get rid of the leaches he has staying with him. He won't kick them out. They are not helping him pay bills and he can't afford to keep them. He is about to have his car die and has no money to get another one. Roommate number one doesn't have a car. He has two people staying with him. Sad story how they take advantage of DS. DH calls them his strays. He tends to collect them no matter where he lives. I guess its good he cares about people but its not good he has no money because of it. He doesn't even have money t buy a 500 dollar car

Ok enough complaining,I gotta figure out how to help him. I hope you all have a great day and do not have to deal with more snakes.

Dont faint!!!   Jan it is about time you take it easy for a day.  Your body is telling you something. I know what u mean about those leg cramps because they are no fun.  I know you use the chewable calcium(so do I) but since I had leg cramps  I also take another regular calcium pill a day.  Plus I drink a glass of milk daily.  I also have DJD and my bones hurt.  Recently I have this shoulder pain which I had an xray for and pcp said its ok.  I am going to push for a cat scan because its just like the hurt I had with my bad hip 8 years ago.  of course if I have to have surgery I will tough it out a while cause I hate anything to do with a  rotator cuff.  and it is not so easy for me to have surgery right now.  colette

Hello Everyone,
 Sorry I've been MIA for so long. I really thought after Tiff graduated and moved out and I became an empty nester thing's would slow way down, boy was I ever wrong. It seems like everything has speeded up and I hardly have time to slow down, no I'm not complaining about it I'm loving all of it.
 Tiff's graduation and party went great and it was such a wonderful amazing day, we all had a blast. I really thought it would hit me hard and I would be crying most of the time, but we were all having so much fun there was no time for tears.
 Janet's daughter Steph graduated the day after Tiff, and it was so wonderful sharing her special day with her and the family. Both of our girls looked so amazing and I'm so very proud of both of them.
 I spent a few days at Janet's house and we had great sister time together, her family is simply amazing and I'm lucky to have them as family now.
 It was so much fun hanging out with Janet, I think we were both in need of sister time and being able to get out and shop and laugh. We finally made it to Precious Moments the last day I was there, it was the first time I had ever been there and I was in total AWWWWW of it all, I can't wait to go back.
 Then I came home and done one of the stupidest things ever (imagine that lol). Larry and I had been having alot of problems so I walked away from him without talking to him, and hooked back up with my x because he was giving me the attention I so needed, well it took me about 4 days to realize this wasn't going to work and that he hadn't changed at all, so I gave him the boot real fast and hard (I can be a huge B when I have to). Well during all of this I finally told Larry how I was feeling and the way he made me feel and that I was done with all of it, needless to say thi**** him hard and so now he has done a complete 360 on me, and is making great efforts to change how he was acting, and we have been having long talks about being in a serious relationship and talking about our future finally. He still has alot to prove to me about his feeling's and stuff, but he has been doing an amazing job of that so far. He told me he realized how close he came to losing me and it scared him and he didn't ever want that. So we will see where things go.
 My life long friend Tonya and I have been spending alot of time together. She had lapband surgery last July and is now wanting to have the rny, so I've spread my wings for the first time and have become her angel (keeping my finger's crossed I don't tell her anything wrong). We've been spending alot of the time on the phone when we are not together, and she has a million question's, most of them I have answer's to, but there are some I don't since she has the lapband, so please pray that I don't tell her anything wrong. 
 Kala's due date was Saturday and still no Noah yet, so we are all awaiting his arrival. She's been having alot of false labor, and is very uncomfortable, but OMG she is so beautiful. She sent me new picture's yesterday and her belly is so big an awesome, I would give anything to rub and kiss it, and talk to it. They are coming in for a week for Tiff's wedding in July and I will get to meet Mr Noah then.
 Tiff and Chris are doing great and keeping busy with all the wedding plan's. Tiff has been looking for a job, so hopefully she will find one soon. Since her and her grandparent's have reconnected they have been spending alot of time together and have become so close. I'm so happy this has happened and am happy for all of them.
 I have been having alot of WOW moment's here lately, my weight loss has been great and I'm able to do so much more and I'm loving every second of it. I only have about 15lbs to go before I hit my goal weight it's so exciting.
 I got a new hair do Friday, I'm not real sure I like it yet though, it's wayyyyy different. I got a spiral perm, and boy did it turn out kinky kinky. I've been washing it every day sometimes twice hoping it relaxes it some. Tonya is coming over this week to trim it up for me and see if I like it better then. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
 I finally got my truck fixed last week and boy is it nice being able to drive it again. I said driving Larry's car is nice, but driving my truck is like sliding on a favorite pair of jeans. LOL
 I guess I better close this for now before it becomes a book, sorry if I bored you guys, but figured I'd let you know what I had been doing. I hope everyone id doing great and enjoying this beautiful sunny weather. And I would like to say WELCOME TO ALL THE NEWBIES ON THE BOARD, AND CONGRATS TO THOSE WHO GOT APPROVED OR WHO HAS ALREADY MADE IT TO THE BENCH.

 Have a wonderful BLESSED day

Love and Hugs

OMG.....Jan took a day off!!  I'll bet there's a weed or 2 growing in your yard.  If anyone deserves a day off, it's you Jan.  You make me tired just reading what you do.  I keep busy but my work is inside.  I love to read to I take reading breaks.  They have to be 30 minutes long and if I go over then it extends to an hour.

Sounds like you might need some potassium.

Tell me about Xanax.  I should look it up on the Internet.  I took it for awhile a couple years ago, not more than once a day, after a period of high stress.  Haven't taken it until recently to help me sleep.  Xanax works better than anything but I don't want to get addicted to it.  I need my sleep!!

Susan, congratulations on the 65 lbs. lost.  You are doing great.  You're catching up with me and I'm almost a year out.  I need to lose another 30-35 lbs.

Lou, the buffalo chicken dip sounds good.  Did you get the recipe here?  Wow, losing 120 lbs.  That's great!  I have more energy than I've had for years.

A year ago I wouldn't have been able to paint a room but I did last week.  I feel so much younger.....most days.

It's been a good back at work.  I like my job.  Just hope I can keep it.  Every week someone is let go.  It's nerve racking.  I'd like to retire but not ready financially.  Sure hope I can hang on at least another year or 2.
