Happy Sunday Cali

Good Morning Cali and welcome to Sunday's edition of get your ass out of bed....smell the coffee...smell the fresh new day....but don't smell the dirty socks!  Have no idea why I am so perky this morning, but I have been up for a while dorking around here on the computer and that stupid myspace thing. I will prevail!

Anywho....it ought to be another swampy day in the desert.....and they say we have dry heat.....not always gang...we get those monsoonal flows that are just killer! Makes you sweat like dawg. Even I had problems yesterday getting my thirst quenched from losing so much body fluid from riding and exercising.

So what lovely plans do you all have for the day? I know LuLu is working..right LuLu??? Other than that....you gotta stop reading and start typing.....inquiring minds want to know!!!

Continue to keep that prayer train a rollin for Steve's brother....and don't forget to live the wls lifestyle....protien 1st, vitamins, move your body and drink water, water and then some more water.....then when you think you have drank enough....drink some more!! 

Have a great day all!!!

 

PEACEOUT!!!!  

Yap, I am working today. Oh joy!! NOT!!!!!!!!!

I guess that means I wont be doing much today. I will tell you this. I didn't now want to get out of bed this morning, I sleeping soooo good when that dang thing started screaming at me. I would so love to go back to bed right now. Think work would get mad?

Little Miss Fresser gets all wond up when I get home, that she now starts chasing her tail. LOL. Its to cute. She has a few toys that she plays with, and she will run and get one of them and toss them at me why I am sitting on pot. Whats is up with that? And no, its not the smell, I was just peeing when she started this. I think Lisa gave me a broken dog. (Not that she is getting her back). I think she just about as nuts as I am.

OK time to get some coffe.

I wish you all a great day. Drink your WATER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't forget support group next Saturday.

Good morning Janine and all the cali crew I don't have a lot planned for today - but some pool time.  I am having some trouble with my left hip (dang sciatica) lately it has been killing me - and you would think with all the weight loss it would go away (I was hoping anyway) but no - the more I am able to move and walk and get around then the hip flares up.  Both my dad and my aunt (his sister) suffered with back and hip issues so I think its just in my genes (cause my name is Jean????lol) Anyway - I am going to try to rest it today and only do pool exercise as that takes the pressure off. Yesterday was pretty low key.  Made a run to Lowes with my sis and I bought some paint and all the accessorys to - are you ready for this - I am going to paint a couple of the walls in a little hall area.  Yep, gonna do this myself (now mind you this is a first attempt and I have never painted anything)  But it is a pretty small area and just flat wall.  Its a wall where I have family photos.  My plan is to get some color on the wall and then re-frame all my pictures so they are kind of uniform (not all the mish mash of frames) and make it a more appealing space.  Now mind you I would never have thought of this a year ago - mostly because I never would have attempted to stand on a ladder or step stool cause it wouldn't hold me....The wall is going to be a kind of mossy green color called Cactus Shadow.  I am excited and nervous at the same time. Anyhoo - the coffees done so time to go read the sunday paper and look for bargains in the ads. I continue to keep Steve and his brother in my prayers.  And also thinking about all of our up coming losers -  Everyone have a great Sunday......

GOOD MORNING JANINE  AND ALL THE REST OF YOU WONDERFUL CALI FOLKS.

THOUGHT I WOULD DO A QUICK FLY BY POST THIS MORNING BEFORE I WENT OUT BACK WHILE IT IS STILL SOMEWHAT COOL TO WATER MY FLOWERS AND TOMATOES. I AM STILL NURSING ABOUT 10 MINI ROSES AND MY 2 HYDRANGEA PLANTS BACK FROM THE EXTREME HEAT WE HAD A COULPLE OF WEEKS AGO. ALTHOUGH I BET JUST ABOUT THE TIME THEY ARE STABLE WE WILL HAVE ANOTHER SCORCHER AGAIN.   

I HOPE YOU STAY PERKEY AND ENJOY YOUR DAY. TO EVERYONE OUT HERE THIS MORNING HAVE AN ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL DAY.

TAKE CARE.

Good morning Janine and Cali! I'm looking forward to not doing much today. Sammi and I will go get breakfast and head to the grocery store and my Mom wants to go look for a new BBQ, but other than that, no plans. I was going to take Sammi to my Uncle's to drive her car but I think we are going to back out. Hope everyone has a great day! Sue

Good Morning, I am up, already done washing my floors.  We spent yesterday at a funeral of a very close friend.  THe service lasted 2 hours, and when they did the firemen's last farewell, well that did it.  I was doing pretty well up until then, but totally lost it.  I felt so sorry for Doug, there were alot of pictures of Doug and our friend that passed, and Doug has a rough go of the whole thing.  We then went over to our friends house with another couple and sat there for 5 hours, letting the widow talk, and we all shared all the good times we have had the last 37 years together. I saw a ton of people that have not seen me since I had surgery, and there were so many wow moments I couldn't even begin to tell you. I just want to say, if you love your friends, tell them so, if you harbor hard feelings get over it.  Yesterday brough to light how fragile and short life is.  It brought to me that it could be Doug some day, and that I very much underappreciate what he does does for me, all the little things.  This morning when I woke and I looked at Doug sleeping next to me, I realize that it will not be forever.  I have been weepy all morning thinking how my girlfriend is, lying in her bed alone for the first time in over 35 years.  While my heart is filled with joy that our friend is no longer in pain and suffering, there is pain for his wife, and I just can't seem to find the right words to express to her how I feel.  What can I do for her.  It's with her strong Christian faith that got her through yesterday and the last week without him, and I pray for her that it will continue to go on and that she is left with the wonderful memories and the happiness that they shared together. Tell those you love that you do, everyday.  I know yesterday had a profound effect on me for the rest of whatever time I have left. Happy Sunday morning to all, have a wonderful day, now onto preparing for a party today at the house. Hugs and love, Diane

  {{{{{{{{{{{{{{Diane}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}  love you!!!!!   Becky

I'm sorry for your loss. One of the things that helped me when my former husband died was a collage of fun photos someone put together.  It was a walk through time of the good times we all had together.  We laughed and cried. Hugs, ---jan---

Morning Janine and Cali crew!!!  My girls and I are heading to my mom's in Victorville today after church. I know it is going to be hot, hot, hot there, thank God my mom has A/C!!! I was up late last night finishing everything to be ready to go because procrastination is my middle name!!!

I am going to try to see Celest and SueBee while I am up there and anyone else that wants to come. I will call Celest today and see what we can set up and then she can post in case anyone else wants to join us! Steve, continued prayers for your brother's recovery!  Big woo hoo's for anyone joining the LOSER's bench this week or getting ready to real soon!!!  Big prayers for all who need them!!!  and lots of hugs and love to you all, I will miss you!!!
