Good afternoon :)
I sat down at like 9am to post and then forgot and then we went to swimming and got lunch. It was so nice out that I also decided to clean up the dog poop. I always try to put chores like that in perspective -- for example, I could have paid someone $35 to do it (spring clean-up, yuck!!) but I did it myself, so I should get to spend that $35 on something for me... Right? ;)
Ginnny, I would like to try either a sign night or a planting night -- a place near me is doing succulent planters. My friend and I have signed up for our third painting night and we are waiting for a paint your pets night which I'm hoping will be in June :)

Referral to Guelph Feb/13, Sleep study and all bloodwork and ultrasound May/13, orientation July/13. Nurse, NUT,SW Sept/13, 2nd NUT, nurse and SW, 3rd round and cleared for surgery Dec/13. Pre-op Apr 7/14, Surgeon May 2/14, Opti Jul 3/14, surgery Jul 17/14.
So after a long stall and long wait, I received a date a while ago to re-do the orientation in Hamilton. Well now the date is fast approaching in a few weeks. Timeline wise, wondering approximately when the surgery might happen. I'm already on a CPAP machine, so I anticipate the having usual course of appointments. I guess I am concerned about work and if I should save vacation days for this calendar year or if my surgery will cross over into 2020. Any advice from Hamilton people would be appreciated.

Hi CC. You pick the sign you want to paint in advance and then the person brings all the supplies and stencils etc. to the host location and you paint away!! I will post a pic of the finished product.
Here is the link to the FB page for one of the companies that does it in our area.

Tell me more about this Sign Night.
Ginny I'm thinking iron, and maybe Vit D.
Good morning everyone. We had a really fun night last night and I allowed myself the luxury of sleeping in again. I've been so tired and sleeping in seems to help this old body.
Today I am cleaning the car (because we have to drive the inlaws around and SHE is very picky), making calls, doing errands and paperwork. DH is Q'ing tonight.
The eats today at 4 years 9 months are:
B. Slept through it, so coffee coffee
L. Crab Rangoon style stuffing on celery
D. Ribeye, yum, with Bernaise and maybe a poached egg to get my protein numbers up, sauteed mushrooms
S. Hot cocoa because I'm old
Have a great day everyone.

Good morning Gang. I did my 3 year blood work last week and my family doc got the results and sent me back for more today and then again in two weeks. Hmmmm.

Thanks.
So far, I'm avoiding all sweets - right now easier to just not even start. Slippery slope and all that.

Good afternoon :)
A house came up on the market this morning that meets a lot of our wants so we took a drive by it. The house looks like it needs a lot of work but the property is really nice and it is five minutes from DHs brothers house.
QOTD: nothing planned yet but we will probably go see the in-laws for lunch on Saturday. DH is going to help them with some kind of project. Hopefully the weather is nice so we can be outside a bit.
