Mac, you and I must be living in the same place since your weather and forecasts align almost precisely with ours. You sure you're not living in SD? :)

Nope, definitely not in SD. Was only there once for about 3 months and that was on the Recruit depot (we'll just say that was a "couple" years ago). Maybe you're being teleported to Okinawa.


And so I don't forget later.

:bday: to Little Princess Angel!

If you're absolutely certain of that, that is what you'll get. Doubt not. Create it. You have the power. Believe in yourself.
I am not doubting....just being realistic....but I'll take it when it comes....Christmas isn't as important as today for me....rituals happening now.....for the rest of the evening........

Will be going to little Princess Angel's b'day party in a while...that's going to be fun...my 3 least favorite people will be there..my ex, his gf, and DIL's mother who I can't stand...but I'll play nice since it's all about little Angel.

12/22 - 2: Howdy back, @teemae I will smile for you, get better. @angelphyre happy birthday to the darlin' :bday::bday::bday::bday::bday::bday::bday::bday: and you enjoy a lot of you time in all that time you have.
@jpf880 Still good vibes and prayers your way.
@Fuzzy Thunderbear Agreed....... @liblue1 I have been talking cold to you for a while. You even heard of snow in a place that should not have had it yet in the deep south east. Am I mistaken but don't you live up North?

Well, the PA I see at the clinic had been practicing a while now. After 2 different blood draws today I got a phone call this evening telling me my fasting glucose was high, after 13 hours of fasting even. This I expected as all my sugar checks for over a week had been high. Then she told me my A1C was within range and I needed to set up an appointment for prediabetes counselling. I forgot to ask what exactly my A1C # was. I really want that number. So that is where things sit right now. I am a little surprised by this diagnosis actually as I have had some pretty high numbers this past week. But now to set up educational counselling for the new year. Thanks everybody for the good thoughts while I am struggling with this.

Just got back from the outing to Star Wars. The FRAD's daughter-in-law's husband has always been a little strange and that didn't change, but the DIL's friend's husband was a fellow geek, so we had a great time. There were a few things that bugged me about the movie, but it was pretty good. I will not offer any spoilers.

(sorry Uncle)

And thank you, as I have not seen it yet. The first positive goal I made for myself a year and 9 months ago.

12/22 - 4: Okay so we have this nuclear facility outside of town. Let's just say that there is always a plane flying over us. So when that place tells the staff, who is to go and stay home, who must stay, including the cleaners. White out for three days, ice, snow, freezing rain, take your pick. Yes we will get some but not all that, not yet. Telling you it is getting cold @liblue1

I am not doubting....just being realistic....
Let's see if I can do a better job of explaining myself - without sounding condescending (do not take it that way, dear one).

Reality: that which other people have been telling us all our lives, giving their opinions of how the laws of physics work, astronomy, history, etc., etc., ad nauseum. Pick a subject; someone else has always told you "how it is" and we had no reason not to believe them. Doctors wear white lab coats with a stethoscope around their necks and we have all been "programmed" to believe that represents authority and superior medical knowledge, so we should believe them, right? Why do you suppose they all have a "medical practice"? Because most of them don't have any real answers and they are charging you so they can practice on your body... Mother Nature has provided the cure for nearly everything that can ever go wrong with you within a 50-mile radius of where you now live, but if you profess this, the AMA and most doctors will call you a quack. Why? Because you cannot patent a plant and make a profit selling the pills. And no doctor or medicine will ever "cure" you - if you get cured, you will never come back to provide them with future income. The same holds true for everything else in your life. How would you feel if someone could prove to you that everything you have ever been told (by teachers, friends, parents, clergy, government officials, etc.) in your entire life was a lie? Am I saying none of the things that we "know" work in this universe are real? No. What I am saying is that they are consensus reality; that which a majority have chosen to believe, therefore they make it real - for them. Are you constrained to that version of reality? Only if you so choose. Can you change it? Yes. Are you willing to expend the time and energy to learn how to change it? Snakespit said, "Ah, therein lies the rub." Not only will most humans NOT take the time to study and apply their energies to this area, most think that those of us who choose to violate the laws of physics, medicine, etc. are wackos who clearly belong in an insane-asylum. And we do, in THEIR version of reality. They would get us locked up and out of the way so we do not disturb their cozy little [profitable] way of life. So I try to bend the laws of the universe by using the only law that is real: The Law of Attraction, and even then, only in such a way that only me, my family members that reside with me, and the property for which I have custodianship are affected. I have no intention of bending others to my will or giving them sunshine when they want snow... that is their choice. You, however, are able to make your own choices, but as I said before, you cannot do this with even one grain of black sand in your thoughts about that white beach. If it doesn't work... why am I not in the wheelchair that the doctors claimed I should have been in over 10 years ago? Your choice...

12/22 - 4: TIOA Sns 5 Eps 6: @anjelvape77 ran, she just ran. The perspiration all over her body, for three miles she ran. She was so tired the dogs gave up when she confused them through two sets of streams. A drink of that water would have been good, there was not a lot on her. The pace of the run slowed down to a jog, it was now fully night.

That first mile was hard, looked at least like 15. Six or Seven saw her go around the side, and took chase; there were many bullet shots that could be heard, it was an all out war for 4, 5, 6 seconds, hard to tell with bullets flying over her head. Many rocks were around, and the ground was a slippery sandy, to low vegetation and single giant rocks in the way. The sound of bullets finally died off, the sound of most of the chasers falling far behind; until the sound of the dogs kicked off.

Okay finally breathing naturally, she ate a little, and drank a little more. Took off the outer gear and was ready, all black; hardly any moon thankfully, a nice warm temperature. She looked up the long rock wall to the single building somewhere above; breathed deep and began. The clouds played with the moon quickly and the shadows danced around her fingers.

@jpf880 . . . "You" haven't been posting to often, How is "WIFEY" ? Is everything alright or are "You" just busy with the Holiday things ? Let "Us" know - "My" Friend . . .

the Aura mini

Well - Given "Your" recommendation, I will look into it some before I say NO . . . Just not sure about the pipe style drip tip though . . . Matter of fact, I have a kamry pipe that I have never used that's just sitting here and all because I didn't like the way it felt in "My" hand and the style of drip tip . . . So "We'll" see . . . ;)

As is, you better have something else to suck on while it is charging.

Then she told me my A1C was within range

Well first of all, having an A1c that is within range is a very good thing, especially since it would probably mean the number is below 7 if not 6 (Which is the newer number the government came up with that says you are a diabetic). or that "You" are within that range between 6 - 7 like I am . . . So -"You" are gonna be okay. It is what "You" do now that is going to determine what "You" will NEED To do for the rest of 'Your" life.

BTW: Long story short, when I was told that I was "Pre-Diabetic" over 12 years ago, I looked "My" Doctor right in the eye and said to him . . . "REALLY - Is that like being Pre-Pregnant" . . . I felt that either I was a diabetic or I wasn't a diabetic . . . None of this "Pre" stuff if I was going to take control of the situation so I could maintain "My" health. AND - Since Diabetes runs in "My" Family ("My" Sister Type 1 & Mother Type 2 were diagnosed in '98, then I learned "My" Mother's Mother had actually died from Diabetic alcoholism and a few years later found out an older brother was also Type 1 Diabetic) it really meant that I was predisposed to also becoming Diabetic (the same thing with what I am now going through with having an Enlarged Heart) - that's the reality of the situation.

Now what I will also mention to "You" is that Diabetes is a very controllable disease (It Is NOT An Automatic Death Sentence), that is if 'You" maintain a healthier lifestyle by adjust what & how much "You" eat (which is much easier then even I thought it would be when "You" know what "You" can eat) and taking care of "Yourself". By doing so, I have not only lowered "My" A1c Count from the 9's to between 6 & 7 for years, "My" doctor and I are very happy that "My" diabetes is in check right now. :mail:



Okay - It's that time again . . . ;)


For "Everyone" In NEED . . .

"GOOD VIBES" & "Healing Thoughts"

. . . are being sent "Your" Way Still



Once again - For all of the 'Tree-Peeps" already gone to bed and those about to go . . .


Hope Ya' have very restful night and pleasant dreams . . .
