Ditto for me! Durning the angst of my teenage years when upset, I'd put on my Converse sneakers and head out the door. Wandering the cemetery, where I ended up getting married (it had a beautiful field stone chapel with a pond behind it), was a favorite destination. I did a couple of the...

Old farts here can't keep up with @Rat2chat2 for walking. Seriously jealous! My PT (knee) said to start at 1 level mile and gradually increase it. I've managed to get some walks in the past week and began adding distance. My hubby's PT (ankle & foot) just told him today that he can start...

@FranC I'm sorry you're getting the snow. We might get a coating to 3 inches, I'm hoping for the former! To cheer us up, flowers are blooming in Bea's greenhouse - she still has that magic touch :thumbs:

I was slightly off all day. I fell asleep after 2am and hubby was nice enough to let me sleep in until after 8, but - I normally do a Friday report from home between 7-8am, hit the shower and get ready to go to Zumba, with enough time to set things up in my office. I was rushing like crazy...

Hi Fran! I got to take a walk today too, just over a mile. The temperature was close to 60 and I dropped what I planned to do and went out. I couldn't let an opportunity like that pass. I was grumpy this morning and am in a much better mood now. If I'm lucky and the forecast holds, I might...

While not as ambitious as @Real-ist, today was a more day - more house cleaning, more laundry, and best of all - more exercises done! It doesn't hurt that the DH is currently in PT and has to do his exercises twice a day. I figure I should be able to do mine too. Tomorrow will be busy -...

Today was a little day. I did a little laundry, a little cleaning, a little reading, a little mixing, and a little napping! I didn't go to NH because the forecast was bad. That worked because neither the hubby nor I had a good night's sleep last night. The cat decided to barf at 3am then...

My bad - I meant to post this over a week ago.. More pictures from @Bea-FL It's her largest azelea, about 20-25ft across. I've only seen ones that size (and larger) in Scotland. Her green bean plants are sprouting, and her basil, zinnias, and cosmos are doing well too! I told her I'd...

I'm about 30 yrs out too. They found some arthritis when they did the surgery, given the family history that wasn't surprising. They warned me I'd have trouble in the future. We got the same message for my kitty who had surgery for a floating patella when she was 18mos old. She's 17.5hrs old...

A cousin would bring his dogs up to the lake in VT. One, a chocolate lab he named Shadow because that dog was his shadow from Day 1, loved the water. He'd sit and wait until the cousin said "OK" and would take off running down the hill, onto the dock, and do a massive jump off the end. He'd...

Just checking in. Busy week at work, fun with meds from the doctor - they sent the wrong prescription to the pharmacy. The doc's office is blaming it on a new computer system. I had to get the doc and the pharmacy to look back at prior prescriptions to verify that I was right. Then I got a...

I popped a message to @Bea-FL this morning. Complaining that it was a lovely 60 deg day yesterday and today it's in the 20s. She responded with these pictures to perk me up! She's also planting seeds for green beans, basil, parsley, zinnias, and cosmos.

Happy Birthday @ShowMeTwice ! :rickroll: I'm glad you had a great day and I'm glad you're here to share with us! I like you, despite your predilection for snow and cold temperatures :lol: I greatly appreciate your contributions, despite the minor detail you cost me $ :ohmy: :laugh: Best to you &...

I'd help you get in trouble, but my other option is to shut down and head home from work. hmmm Waving bye!

Well, I was excited when I realized I have all the flavors for the Raspberry Tart Cookie. :banana: I haven't had much success with Raspberry but have been thinking about trying it again, so this sounds great. Then you went and posted Jelly Donut!! Of course, I don't got no donuts! :-x:lol: I...

I normally mix 4-5 at a time. Some weekends, like this one, I make it a priority to because my steeping stash needed to be built up. I only had to clean 2 empty bottles but put 7 in the box. I'm set for a while. Why do I see another flavor order in my future when you say that?? :lol:

We're in clubs you don't want to be in. I have Trigeminal Neuralgia so it's 'just' the nerve in my lower jaw. When it flares with lightning bolts of pain, can't eat, talk, cough, sneeze, kiss, etc. Fortunately, that only happens every few years now. I'm on a mega dose of gabapentin (well...

Nerve pain sufferer here too. Fortunately for me, it's controlled by drugs. Others with my condition can't stand even a whisp of a breeze on their cheek. It's scary to imagine. Stay warm and comfortable, spring is coming.. eventually!

Sorry @hittman that you had a bad day at work. Hopefully the fog will lift tomorrow. I got out of work early today. I had to go to City Hall to meet with the Assessor's Office. Surprise - they were prepared, the problem was resolved in 5 minutes, and I got to head home from there! I have to...

Happy Snow Day! We dodged a bullet. Yesterday's forecast said we'd get 8-10" of heavy wet stuff, today's reality is 1-3". As a bonus, the storm will be done during daylight hours making it easier to clear up the driveway. I'll take that. I planned to work from home today so I'm comfy with...
