Back from the gym Phyl went to dr - got a shot & muscle relaxers - the shot didn't help the pain - just make her loopy - Via FB around 3;30 ish WTG Candice... Becoming a regular gym rat like me ;0) Steph - Whats the # of servings - but again - I don't eat fruit w/my meat - so it doesn't appeal to me at all - pe 1 reg tort has about 100 cal 1 c cheese has 100 cal Chicken 200 cal per serving (approx) Butter 100 cal Guesstimate - 400- 500 cal for 1/2 of a quesdilla.. Which I can eat and I have pretty good restriction.. - so if you could only eat 1/4 not bad calorie wise Linda - Pizza aren't they romantic - I would rather have a fancy dinner for my anniversary ;0) - Lobster... Well need to get Andrew's dinner started and mine too - BBQ steak - need to figure what veggie I am eating tonite.. cbl

Phyl - I don't think visiting him would be a good idea - just open up the wounds Ya the incident this morning - Andrew wasn't here (spent the night at his Mom's) I thought OMG what am I going to tell him. No Bella isn't filling the spot - he loved Ryder - but it's his choice - he can always move to his Mom's - I sort think in a way he was trying to maniuplate me - he kept saying if he moved out I would be sad that he was gone - How do you say no I wouldn't :0) - Yes I would but at times no I wouldn't :w00t:.. I think he's afraid to leave me alone.. OMG I'm 55 - I'm a big girl - I would be ok - and I bet I would see him more often and we would talk more - he made the statement - you are always calling me when you are gone or I am gone (out of town) - lol - Yes I might call once to see how you are but you are the one calling me 3-4 times a day when you are gone telling me all the stuff you are doing - :rolleyes2: Ya there's nothing to do till Monday about the car... I know how frustrating that is - I need to take mine in to get estimate to fix scratches and the bumper I messed up - just not enough hrs in the day - plus then I will have to get a rent a car !!! Plan on doing it next Friday (my FF) I only take ibuprofen or aleve on an empty stomach so that it doesn't stay in my pouch and I drink drink drink - i don't do it often - maybe 6 times in the last 3 yrs max - but no we aren't suppose to take nasids (I think that's the tech name for that type of aspirin oh ya we aren't suppose to take those either) Linda - do you think a baby asprin would be ok - you know it's suppose to be good for the heart ;0)

Lucky #7 are still going strong !!!
You got me crying Linda - Thanks !!! We are ok - and you are so right about setting limits - he does understand but it hurts me so when he hurts.. But I can't fix everything and he understand - but as we all know - tough love is harder on us than them ;0) This morning thought I lost Bella !!! Got on the computer to pay my bills and the last ones for Bro's estate - and then posted - Bella was in the back yard - well went to look for her- couldn't find her - called called - ck'd the rooms my closet - couldn't see her - so figured she got out under the side gate - (she has never ventured that far she stays on the grass) so go walking barefoot calling for her - asking pple - the street was hot - (now have 2 burned feet) got in car drove around - came home started printing flyers - thinking the whole time - omg - i've lost her - Andrew is going to be so hurt... he spent his $$$ on her and she goes for surgery (hernia) next week - so got pictures printed - offered reward - go to bedroom to get dressed (put some shoes on) and there she was asleep in my closet.. She's so tiny I didn't see her and guess my calling her didn't wake her up.. What a relief... So I made sure the side is blocked off - but have 2 burns on the bottom of my feet.. Enjoy your quiet time ;0) - LOL so I take it Mel's not a hands on grandpa - I sorta understand w/Levi being a baby - but Cora is bigger now.. Well his loss..

Lucky #7 are still going strong !!!
Good Morning Gang Well Thursday nite had a little drama here - Ryder issues - too long to go into - but bottom line if you want Ryder back you have to move to your Mom's... You have to make the sacrifice not me.. A lot of crying etc.. Emotional issues w/Andrew - he grew up being every ones step child - to me he hasn't been and I want him to feel loved - I know how bad it is to your physie (sp) not to have felt love.. (his dad was never there - melissia typical stepmom(favored Kaitlin over him) -his mom let him go) So yes I have tried my hardest to give him a loving safe home.. Don't want him to feel that i am picking choosing between him and the dog.. So Very Very Very emotional - I even left work at noon yesterday - I was very depressed - haven't been depressed like that in years - He loves that dog - anyway - it's over for now - he knows he wouldn't be happy living at his mom's - so for now the matter is settled - and I just need some time to chill - As you all know I want to avoid any kind of drama at all cost - as I told him - I have had enough of it to last a life time.. Phyl - Hugs on the car accident - thank God no one hurt - they (loomis) will have to pay it all... What a freak crappy day.. Got your card today ;0) thanks !!! Glad Zoey is ok - you are going to have to child proof your home - When Kaitlin was here Ryder got into her acne meds - but thankfully he's a bigger dog and it didn't have any adverse effects.. Hugs girls on your controling DH's - Its the reason I don't have one - Well, need to get dressed and go go costco and pickup my glasses - hope they work..

Stressed, getting stuck because of it, and vomiting!
Yes they will get better - Please take care of you..

Ya when I was at the dentist the other day - they were calling someone who had an appt at 2 to remind them to take their meds... I have a great dentist... Well need to go start my fish - my squash is done - cbl

Karla So glad you and Sis had a good time and talk.. Time - Time - Time - the pain does lessen - you will always miss them - you will always cry for your loss - but I can tell you - time does help - I'm the only one left from my parent's marriage - My sis (diff dads) isn't talking to me - and her health is failing.. So girl I know about loss and this is the voice of experience talking.. I am glad you are trying to be more positive - I think if you really give it a try - work on it - you will feel better.. You are a beautiful person - you have a roof over your head - pple who love you - you just have to open yourself up to it..

- Lucky #7 are still going strong !!!
Let's face it : After Monday and Tuesday... even the calendar says ----- W T F.- Lucky #7 are still going strong !!!
Phyl - I was wondering when you would get caught taking Zoey into stores – most say seeing eye dogs only – that’s when you get a dog purse so they don’t see her.. Get a towel and cover her up at the ck out stand ;0)… Will ck the mail ;0) since we have locked boxes – I rarely do – but will since it’s going to be the 1st and I gotta pay bills ;0( I didn’t get any computer time last night – I think I may just have to quit fb – farming and frontier land – taking up too much time.. Candice Hugs Hugs Hugs Sweetie – Hugs Hugs Hugs – We have discussed this control issue before – I think it’s why I over ate too.. Have you talked to him about how you feel – I thought you sold rv to get a bigger one?? Separate computers – good idea imho – so what – I think you are taking it a little too personal Separate bathrooms – no biggie either – hell there are a lot of pple our age who have separate bedrooms – I know my parents did due to sleeping patterns – so be happy you still sleep together Peter is neat freak – you aren’t – why should he have to adjust to your way or you to his – just let him have his own bathroom (compromises isn’t that what marriage is all about) – that doesn’t take away from you – that doesn’t mean he doesn’t love you – – Hell Ralph had his bathroom and I had mine.. That didn’t bug me at all. Kitchen – well is he cooking ?? I think you are pmsing today... So what are you saying that you don't have anything in common, that you like to do together... Peter doesn't sound like he's too bendable - like the gym - I know I like to go early but if you wanted to stay 1/2 hr extra it's no biggie for him to wait.. Ok what to do when you are bored - cultivate those female friendships - do things w/them - Quilt - get on line vent all you want - go clean out a drawer in your bath room - go clean out your closet.. Take the dogs for a walk - Go to the gym - do you have a community college where you can take some classes.. Can you go volunteer at your mom's retirement home or local hospital.. Clean out your house of all the junk foods you have in it – take them to the local homeless shelter if you don’t want to throw them away – go talk to your shrink .. You need a schedule – you need a plan – you need to fill your day with more than just sitting at home brewing about Peter – you gotta make your own life – I think you do need to talk to him about your feelings – but you aren’t going to change him just like he’s not going to change you.. You 2 do need to work together. Is there any hobby that you both like that you could do together – How about a date nite for you guy – how about plan a romantic weekend and tell him – I have a surprise and you need to be here at such in such time and be prepared to be gone for 3 days.. Well I gotta get back to work – see what I can think of – You can come an visit me & Phyl in October and go to Vegas w/us !!!- Lucky #7 are still going strong !!!
Good Morning Gang.. Linda - Hugs on your hip - my uncle has a bad knee he's putting of surgery - why cuz he's afraid he'll be the 2% it doesn't work for - I know you are putting yours off for other reasons - but you may have to re-think that - you want to be able to move.. Glad you gotta see your kids - and are enjoying your grandma time... So glad to have you back.. And no Sangria after class - it counter acts the effects of the class ;0) - Sorry to be such a downer - but we get treats once a week ;0) Candice WTG on both food and exercise !!!! Since you are retired why don't you go w/Peter when he takes off... Steph - Hugs on being too busy - I don't know how you do it.. Phyl where are you?? Did my yoga last nite and slept like a baby - I didn't wake up once last nigh.. I think I will be adding it to my repertoire of exercise - It's mostly about streaching - did get a little sweaty but not much - had weights at 5 - then yoga at 7:30 the only thing is that I don't get home til late 8:45 ish - Think I went to bed about 10:30 .. Good choices today peeps - it pays off..- Lucky #7 are still going strong !!!
Steph - Candice's scales 186 lbs - that means eating hasn't been good - she did say last week she was working on exercise but that eating wasn't good.. No the calories aren't bad - but if you skip the pasta it would be better (if you are trying to loose weight) I would say BF & Lunch during weight loss phase were 150 -200 max - dinner around 300- 350 + snacks (300 -400) I am just concerned that those scales are moving more and more upwards - hell she was in the 170's not too long ago.. I am gone the 11/27 for a week on my family vacation - Lucky #7 are still going strong !!!
