Good morning, Violets...

Just checking in. Ethan is with me for the day and I'm giving him as much loving as possible. Things are a bit better at home according to Joe. They are having a family meeting tomorrow to discuss the issues. Not much more info than that. I told Joe that he HAD to call 911 the next time this happens.

Off to love up Ethan. Everyone have a good day.

DS Joe just called. DIL's mom is taking her to the hospital. Thank goodness. Hopefully they can get her on some meds to get her back on track. Up to this point she has refused meds. Only problem is, it's going to take up to 6 weeks for the meds to be effective. It's going to be along haul for awhile, I'm afraid.

OH my goodness! I missed so much while I was gone...

Judy and Kat - prayers to you and your families. Words cannot express how sorry I feel for everything that you guys are going through right now.

Michelle - Thank you for the reminder on the blessings. I have tried to end my day with a thanks to God for all the blessings he has given me but on more days than not I go to bed grumbling about how much I have to do the next day or how much I didn't accomplish today. I need to do alot better with that...

I'm gonna play catch up on the posts, only skimmed the last few pages...

I have had a permanent sickness for months now, it flares up at night, and fades throughout the day but never goes away..so I either can't taste, or barely taste things (which may be why I like really flavorful stuff right now). My eyes and nose always itch and in the middle of the night I wake up having sneezing fits, and in the morning I go through LITERALLY 20 tissues or more of snot. Doc told me to try Claritin, Benadryl, and Zyrtec--none did anything. She has me on a 5-day Zpak right now, I am on day 5 with no change.. oh well. I am just hoping when I have Carson it goes away, it's a permanent cold/allergy thing that isn't treatable!!

I thought maybe I developed allergies to something, so I meticulously cleaned our bedroom (since that's where I am at night/morning) and vacuumed the mattress, headboard, blinds, etc.. and no change. Then we went to Tunica, thought if I'm allergic to my feather pillows or the cats suddenly, it would stop.. no change in Tunica, same pattern, fades throughout the day then full force at night.. so.. LUCKILY that means I'm not allergic to my cats (I was worried).

Had 1/2 cherry yoplait yogurt for b'fast & 1/2c of apple juice. Having a Smart Ones meatloaf for lunch & a cup of applesauce. Also have 1/2c of root beer.

Had 20oz of Water so far.. going to make salmon for dinner--I've yet to make it at home where I liked it, but Russ always likes it and eats mine.. so then I heat up something else. Going to try yet again, with another recipe.

Sounds gross, but some food show I watched showed that you can steam cook salmon in your dish washer-- and I swear it looked YUMMY lol. I told Russ about it, and he said I better not cook our dinner in the dish washer.

DIL Jen is at Point East which is the mental health unit of the hospital. Hopefully she'll get the help she needs. Ethan is still here until his daddy comes to pick him up. We've read books and played Wii all day. Gramma is tired, but happy to be able to help this way.

Just wish we were closer to Kat to be able to give her our love and support in person.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
