Oh by the way Canndesign is Carla!!! I have two accounts on OH!
Jeane,
I would love to come do Yoga with you! I tried it a few times and find it very relaxing. My Dr teaches yoga at her office. If I ever stay home for ten weeks at a time I might sign up for her sessions. Ten sessions for 100.00. But they have to be ten sessions consecutively. I'm never home that long.!!!
Kathy,
I really love days where I wake up, it's cold and dreary, and I just go right back to bed and sleep all morning. I usually do that on those really cold mornings. I am involved in so many things because I cannot say no....but that's okay.
Rest...sometimes that's all we need is a little rest.
Almost Good Evening Ladies!
Well I confess to bring extremely lazy today...got up late, messed around on FB & then went back to bed for 3 hours! This temperature drop & dark, dreary, rainy weather makes me want to burrow under the flannel sheets...not good!
I also think a little depression is setting in between our dog passing, not working yet, and a few other issues. So I can relate, Julia. I've learned to push thru these times, but today I just gave in...
Carla, prayers for your friend. I think one of the hardest parts of growing older is by facing our mortality through the sicknesses & deaths of family & friends.
Jeannie, that is great news about the yoga space. I really envy your interest & involvement in so many activities and interests.
Well, I need to get moving since most of the day is gone.
Kathy
Carla that is sad news...Hope his brother gets there in time!!! Prayers for all...
HUGSSSSSS
Hey Carla and Julia,
I have good news to report...my coworkers who spend the summers doing Yoga with me in the courtyard and I have been given access to a really cool space. Over the summer, we get to use the space for our Yoga hour...I don't quite do an hour but hey, some is better than none, right?
Julia, I know what you mean about losing that big mass and then having to do the rest with sheer determination and you will do that too. I say it all the time: one day at a time...that way, you don't get overwhelmed.
Have a good day ladies.
I'm here on West Coast time. I slept quite well and I have some cleaning chores to do before I go to a jewelry class. My craft room is so full of craft materials, including a treasure trove of jewelry materials, that I need to use some of it up while I can still have my fine motor skills!
Yesterday I had a sad day, including tears. I'm feeling some loss, not anything I can really talk about here, though the events here did not help my already fragile state. Today feels much better.
Weightwise i feel as if I am hanging in. When I feel turmoil I tend to burrow into comfort food...I have done some of that, but I have also used a variety of my new tools to relax, including meditation and coloring. My weight is stable right now. It is higher than I want but not going up.
I do think that this emotional link to my eating issues is substantial and it can not be (will not be...if you get my drift) ignored in my quest for a more normal weight. WLS helped me immensely...100 pounds lost for many years is nothing to sneeze at...but the rest of the weight is my journey to health that I will need to tackle on my own. I think the next step for surgery would have to be brain surgery...?.
Happy Thursday everyone!
Julia
Well we might not be leaving tomorrow, we r waiting word on our friend from Wisconsin, He had a massive heart attack on Saturday. I'm waiting to see if anything going to happen. He is still unresponsive.
I don't want to be on the road and have to turn around. I think he is hanging in till his brother comes tomorrow from Houston.
Today we r watching Vin and going out!
Carla
Linda,
You must let me know the next time you are in AR. I will come hang out with you. I love WY...my niece lives there and I go and spend a week or two with her often. We are taking our grandkids to Yellowstone this summer and we are going to spend a few days at my niece's ranch. I found a trunk full of petrified wood, fossilized dinosaur poop, one dinosaur egg that had the top cracked right off but the egg yolk with the little skeleton is in tact. I love it. And some stone tools and knapper stone tools that we donated to a museum...I love it there.
I've spent time in Mountain View at our family's cabin...it's on the white river and just lovely.
Well, I need to get off here and get ready for the sack....have a really good night.
