    Good evening lurkers :wub:

    Think I ate my weight in mac and cheese :cry: it was sooooo good and I couldn’t stop eating. :facepalm: Now I feel like a slug. :blush:

    Hope you all had a lovely day. I’m gonna roll myself up the stairs and get to bed early. Sweet dreams :wub:
    Good evening Sara, once in a while shouldn’t hurt ;)

    Hope you sleep peacefully :wub:

    Sara, when I'm at the BF's I have to sleep with 2 pillows too, propped up because of acid reflux as well...and I always wake up with hip and/or shoulder pain (I too sleep on my side)...I don't have that problem here at home though...the waterbed cradles everything and I only need one pillow and no acid reflux or pain on waking...that's why I refuse to give up my waterbed. ;)...oh and your dinner sounded wonderful...everyone deserves to splurge once in a while! :)

    We had low 70s and sunny today...should be around those temps for the next few days it looks like. :thumbs:

    Good morning lurkers :wub:

    That’s what I told myself while shoveling it in, it’s ok to splurge once in awhile. Lol. Today is a new day! Woot!! 8lbs left to go, oh yeahhh!!

    We got this mattress 5 years ago, I’m very interested in the bed that KC has, the sleep number thingy.

    Sorry you gals have a rough time sleeping (except for on the waterbed) too.

    Hope you all have a great day!

    Hey Angel :wub:

    That’s interesting about the water bed preventing reflux.

    High of 75 for us today, temps increasing quickly here :(

    Morning Lurkers,

    I suggest getting the adjustable base with the Sleep Number Bed. It can raise head and/or the foot of the bed to dial in your preferred position.

    Good morning lovely lurkers. :wub:

    Yeah, I don't know why the waterbed prevents it, but I never have the reflux when sleeping in it...I'm with Sara, I want KC's bed for over at the BF's...now just to convince him of that! ;)

    Princess Slugger has another game tonight...hopefully it won't be cold like the other night.

    Have a good day all! :)

    Good afternoon all. :wub:
    Around 60 today, grey...rain to start early evening, and then rain through the weekend...but hey, it's not snow, so I won't complain.
    Have been busy at work, and spending time with Mimi in the evening, after the normal stuff.
    Been trying to read a kindle book I got on dog training too.
    Other than that, not a whole lot going on. Quiet, which is fine by me. ;)

    Good morning Dale and lurkers :wub:

    Oh no, Lori. Thank goodness for the flooring you have. Hope she outgrows that soon. How old is she, again?

    Hope you all have a good Monday. :)
    Yes, thank goodness. She turned 2 Feb. 10th.

    Good evening lovely lurkers. :wub:

    Hope everyone had a lovely weekend...ours was beautiful and sunny and low 70s...just perfect, which of course only happens about 2 or 3 days a year! ;)

    Sara sorry DH is heading out of town again...hope things go smoothly for you while he's gone.

    Lori, I had a dog that used to do that submissive ...... whenever you'd raise your voice, even if it wasn't directly at her...she never really outgrew it either...turned out she had been badly abused before we got her and she was just a very nervous, scared baby, but she was the sweetest thing in the world and was so loving once she came out of her shell.

    So, I've decided that I have really good bosses. After my ex died, I lost a huge chunk of my income because I was no longer getting my half of his retirement pay. My bosses knew of my situation, but it wasn't really their problem. Well, last week on Margarita Tuesday, you know get the boss drunk first, LOL, I made them a proposal and on Friday they let me know that they agreed to it, which included a very big raise, and made up for most of my lost income. :thumbs: So now I'm Operations Manager, and while I may work my tail off all week long, at least I'm getting paid well for it. :D
    Angel, that is AWESOME NEWS regarding your promotion and pay increase!!
    Busy days make them go fast, I'd rather be busy than so slow that time just creeps.

    I suspect this might have somewhat been the case for Mimi too.
    I am more conscious of how I speak to her now, and find she listens to me just as well if I am firm but use a softer tone. Just tender feelings I suppose.
    She is really a good, sweet girl. :)

    Good morning lovely lurkers. :wub:

    The game was fun and cute to watch, even though it was a bit on the cold side out there...Princess was in her own little world though...out there kicking dirt, dancing around, throwing her glove around, even let a ball roll right by her and never saw it. :facepalm: But she did score on her second at bat, after getting out at first on her first time up and that almost caused a melt down she was so upset...but she did have fun and that's what matters. She was so happy to have everyone there for her, including her daddy and her uncle. It was a good time. :D

    Hope everyone has a lovely day! :)
    Oh how fun!! They're so cute at that age!!

    Thanks Dale :wub: My parents offered to pick kiddo up from school and we are having dinner with them. Homemade mac and cheese. Hope I can behave myself :lol:



    Awwwww! That’s awesome! Glad it was a good time by all.

    Oooh, I stole one of DHs pillows last night. Combined with mine and I woke up neck and hip pain free. :?: He might be down a pillow until the weekend. Well not like he needs it now anyway :laugh: Hope you all have a great day.
    Yep, I sleep with three. A contour neck pillow, one between my knees, and one to hug. The one I kind of hug keeps my shoulders aligned better. :)

    Congratulations on your weight loss!! That's fabulous Sara!! :wub: :banana:
    You'll get to your goal for sure!! :thumbs:
    ...hate that you might get more snow. :(
    Good afternoon everyone :)

    Sara we might have snow this weekend also lol Guess winter is not really over yet lol

    Hope you all have a great day :)
    Oh Joey, so sorry you might get snow. Winter just won't give it up this year!! :(
    Hope you have a great day too!!

    @daleron - thought I grabbed your posts. :facepalm:
    You're warming up FAST!! I'm too far North. :cry:
    Don't know how you do 10 hour days, especially with all you do, and on your feet all day.

    Good evening lurkers :wub:

    Gain it all back I spose, Dale ;) kidding. I would like to focus more on strength training, maybe learn yoga (to help with stress) sorry it’s getting so warm for you.

    Sounds like we’re all getting rain this weekend. To start, for us. Only reached about 54 today and will be colder tomorrow, they lied.

    Fran, hope the snow doesn’t make it your way. Doesn’t sound like a big storm, so maybe it will fizzle out.

    Joey, so glad I’m not alone in the snow lol. Nah, I know you’re just as ready to be done with it as I am.

    Lori, I just realized that Lucy will be two in July. Wow!! Time flies. So glad you are enjoying Mimi and making some time for yourself. Glad it quiet for you.

    KC, how are you feeling? That’s the one I’d like to get. The adjustable one. I think it could maybe do wonders for me.

    Angel, hope you all have fun at the game and it’s not too cold.

    More comfort food for dinner, I made tuna casserole. But I behaved and didn’t overeat lol. Can’t wait for DH to come home, tomorrow.

    Hope you all as a good day and are enjoying our evening. I’m about ready for bed zzzzz zzzzz.

    Good to see you Lori :wub:

    I’m barely doing those long days, tired and rather cranky tonight. Ain’t got no life :glare:

    The weather is very pleasant right now but being 75 already means it’s going to be really hot really soon :(

    I’m tired guys so good night, see y’all tomorrow :wub:

    Evening Snails,

    @Sara Love funny you should ask, had my final follow up today. All is going very well, slight pain and stiffness yet to be expected, however incisions are looking great and my not needing anything in the way of pain meds was a mild shock to DR.

    And all corporate required paperwork is filled out. They sent me postage paid envelopes for return mailing, however I am sending this to them VIA signature required by them and confirmation of such to me.

    I do not totally trust them on this, Made a copy of everything also for ME.

    OK RANT over.

    KC, I don’t blame you one bit. I would be doing it that way as well. Glad you are doing well physically.

    Happy Fri-Yay!! Today is one of the not so nice supervisors last day! Retiring! :banana: woot!! Hope you all have a good day!
