Saturday Roll Call

Hi Chris & the rest of IL - Happy Saturday.  What a glorious day.  I worked early this morning and now I'm home.  Just tilled up my new lawn!  LOL  Oh well, not all of it, just a flower bed.  Now I need to start on my veg garden.  Not much else going on, just piddling around the yard which is what I love to do. Hope everyone has time to get out and enjoy the day! BTW, Chris.. thanks for sharing your pictures.  Very cool cars and a lovely bride! Christina

Hi everyone! We are up in Wisconsin camping(wireless card in the laptop)and the weather is beautiful. Working on my tan and riding the ATV...Joined up with a group of friendsd and have a nice campfire every night...Only thing I can't have is the s'mores but thats ok...I am getting more walking in then I have been so I hope when I get home the scale has moved. I have been in an almost 3 week plateau. Now that I don't have a scale with me so I hope I have a pleasant surprise. I am not that discouraged about I have been a "I don't want to exercise" stage so I know its my own fault. Anyway...Hope everyone has a great weekend too :)

Hey, where are ya at up in WI and using a wireless card on the PC? Dave and I are just about to purchase that service with Verizon. Chris

We have sprint and are in Black River Falls. Not sure about Verizon up here but when I go to see my mom I lose service in Wausau so I am guessing it will depend on how far north you go.

Good Afternoon to everyone.  Wasn't able to post yesterday, I didn't get home from EGV until late, then went to dinner, and the oldest girl stayed the night,. Also took over the computer Anyway, I saw Dr. Guske yesterday morning. He gave me a  and told me  I was doing great. I am a bit upset, I only lost 4 lbs this past 6 weeks. I know, even a few ounces count, but I was hoping to get to a personal goal of 249. I am only 6lbs from it. So, new goal by my next appointment is at least 6 lbs. Also had an appointment with my heart specialist. He couldn't get over how alive I look, how much weight I have lost, and my energy level. He had nothing negitive to say, except he wants a cat scan and something else done next month. So,  my next time up there will be doing tests and more doctor visits. Here in Streator, we are having heritage weekend. There is a flea market, carnival, street dances, concert. Today was the first time I have attened it in a few years and was dissapointed how small amount of vendors there were. I was involved with this as a vendor, for over 20 years, giving it up when my health was failing. Now today, I found out from one of the chair people, that the city didn't want to leave the public restrooms open, they don't want to do garbage pickup, and who knows what else. It is just sad to see  this community affair go down after all the years it has been going.  I did finish my garden today. It is DONE  . Nothing going on for the rest of the weekend. Just laying around.  Hope everyone has a great Saturday, and a great weekend. Hugs
