                                                  You can visit Sandra and join HHM HERE  *** Past week's pondering***  Good morning, my beautiful sisters. It was a pretty mundane week. I worked and had some doctor stuff. I did have a good evening playing Uno with family.  I was sick a good portion of the week - I am STILL sick today (Sunday). A friend of mine said their mom had it for 10 days. It's some type of stomach bug and it is definitely hanging on!                   *** The weather in my neck of the woods***    The weather this week looks a little better. We were cold quite a bit of last week and had a lot of rain. It's time for the MAY FLOWERS! (Speaking of - I got some pansies and 2 hanging baskets of impatiens) The balcony oasis has started!  Monday: 74, partly sunny Tuesday...

I'm typing this up early Monday morning, the sun is rising over the river, and the birds are singing outside my window.  Last week, I turned 56. I'm really noticing my age in a lot of things. There are ways I feel no different than I ever have. But after losing 150 pounds (yes!) my neck is saggy, my skin is getting wrinkles, and my white hair is relentless. But I'm ok with all of it. I've earned every year. Last week I did PT six times, did strengthening exercises once, and took 4 walks. My eating was NOT GOOD. But I am back today!                   *** The weather in my neck of the woods***    Monday: 67, cloudy Tuesday: 63, rain Wed: 53, rain Thursda...

  You can visit Sandra and join HHM HERE  *** Past week's pondering***  I've been very grateful the past week. We came close to losing our Dad and the good LORD made the decision to allow us to keep him longer.  Partially due to the recent scares in our family - I ended up getting some grown up things done. I scheduled my long overdue mammogram and my diabetic eye exam. I'm going to get all my x-rays done on Tuesday (which is my 56th birthday!)  I also (barely) got my taxes done in time, Saw my nutritionist again, took five walks, and started PT for my lower back, shoulder, and knees! Did PT six times!                   *** The weather in my neck of the woods***    Monday: 43 partly sunny Tuesday: 69 cloudy (my birthday!) Wed: 68 & sunny (of course the day I go back to work!)  Thursday: 71 and rain Friday: 65 and rain Saturday: 59 and cloudy Sunday: 64 cloudy ***  Thinking about  *** ...

I'm typing this up Sunday evening and I am beyond exhausted. My Dad ended up having three stents placed over two separate procedures - but he is home and recovering. It was quite a scare for all of us.                   *** The weather in my neck of the woods***    Warm and rainy!  Monday: 78 rain and clouds Tuesday: 76 thunderstorms Wed: 71 and rain Thursday: 72 and rain Friday: 70 partly sunny Saturday: 73 and rain Sunday: 42 cloudy ***  Thinking about  *** My Dad, sister, and I have all started a heart-healthy diet. I saw a nutritionist and will be checking in with her weekly. Making some small changes. Walking more often ...
