WHATS HAPPENING FRIDAY
Thursday morning in Arkansas, cold in fact it is colder down here in Truman than it is in Harrison weird....according to my weather thing on the computer Harrison was 37 and in Truman was 34....we wont leave here till it gets warmer ...and will probably stay over night somewhere along the line.. so will let you all know where we stop tonight. It is according to the map thingy on the computer. It is a 7 and ½ hour drive from here to where we are going to go so I know unless it gets awfully warm today but if it is like it was yesterday we will stop overnight. Well I will get off here for now and type more tonight...we were in Truman ARK.
We left Truman Ark at 11 am , me bundled up like a kid going out to play in the snow...now I know how they felt. Bundled so well that you didn’t get cold and don’t to much but don’t get to play either because you are so bundled you cant move. When I go to get on the bike all I can do is back up and put my left foot on the back foot rest and push myself up to the seat then Joe has to get hold of my foot and bend my leg and get it over the bike so I can sit on the seat and scoot back lol I have so much on that my leg wont bend. ...it is funny but it is also a good reminder about when I was fat and couldn’t move or bend my legs or body or anything . not fun remembering that but then on the other hand I don’t want to forget it either....i am feeling really puffy and full . I haven’t gained any weight but I just feel uncomfortable and puffy in my clothes. My ankles are swollen and socks are cutting into my ankles. I am thinking of when we get back if I am still feeling this way will see my pcp and get her to give me some lasix. Or something. ...
We have stopped for the night in
Before we left Truman this morning we stopped at ‘Wal mart and I bought all sorts of hot hands and hot foots and large body heated patches. ...i used a bunch of them today..
I have enough left for tomrorrow if I need them which I am sure I will in the morning.
Well have to go take a shower , change clothes and go get a bite to eat...i am doing all right on my vits. But need to increase water. Is hard to drink with a full face helmet on. Lol ...am behind but will get it all in before bed. ....will write more after supper and will d
o my responses....
We went to supper and I ate a grilled chicken breast and a small salad. I am trying to turn over a new leaf by getting in more protein in food and hence more calories ...
SUGAR::::: we are in going to be leaving her by 8 am in the morning so we can get the rest of the day done. And get to Colfas la. Tomorrow.
Hey that might work if we complained enough they might do a butt lift and implant of padding right at the right points lol
When I feel on my butt and made it really really sore like that I used Bio-freeze on it until it finally quit hurting. Anything like aspirincream should help.. Hope to be at our other sissies on Monday afternoon ... ..
SUSAN:::::yes sweetie I did get your message but when I finally got to where I could stop and call you back I am ashamed to say I just totally forgot , not cool I know. Thanks for doing all you are doing. Keep the temps warm in the green house for me ok?" and if the day is sunny and warm need to turn everything off . but im sure you all will know how to do it all. It is more or less guess . lol
SUSIE::::::::I know you are going to make it for sure into wonderland ...keep on doing what you want to achieve. I know you will get there. How much have you lost now. I thought you still wasn’t losing any...
Thanks for the concern , I don’t think I will get pneumonia. Im too wrapped up for that lol
I think if I fell down I would bounce im so wrapped up...i will have Joe to take a picture of me tomorrow morning lol you all will laugh I know.
What is a card making party? Sounds like fun?
KAREN:::::: hope the headache is gone now...i use to have headaches a lot but very seldom have them any more. I had Migraine headaches till I had my first child and after that I never had another one isn’t that weird? Will pray that yours go away.
PEGGY:::::whew!!!! You make me tired with all of that running around lol. I saw where you got to stay home today. So all is well with your world again ? lol
I think I could stand to freeze quite a bit more of this tiny body lol tiny body indeed. Silly girl..
I jus****ched the weather where we are and it is suppose to be 60 before noon so hopefully I wont have to have the snowball look for riding tomorrow. ....
JANET::::::your analogy of me dressed like we dress little ones to go play in the snow was exactly what I told Joe earlier in the day. Now I know why the poor little things after dressing them like that all they did was go out there and stand for a few minutes and want back in the house and undressed . wore them out to just stand there with all of that on them lol . So glad to hear that Jon is doing better. And eating again.
Seems we are getting lots of different answers and reports of Deb,(pooh) wonder what is really going on don’t you?
Yes we will let you all know where we are located so don’t worry, we are going to be ok and are having a ball. Oh sorry you wouldn’t fit in the luggage carrier on the back of the bike. Will have to work on that stuff ....
KAREN::::: thanks for the prayers. And continue to pray that as we go further south we get better weather. I know I freeze all the time too but it was either go now or not at all.
Going to check out AZ maybe to stay in the winter ..
LOVE AND HUGS
GOD BLESS ALL

Whew....ready for life to SLOW DOWN! But today I need to clean, the house is still filthy from the holidays. I swear I could dust every day (I don't) and it would still be dusty. I have thought about having the ducts cleaned since the house is over 30 years old. Anybody every had that done? Does it help? I don't mind vacuuming all the time but I HATE to dust so often.
If I can get the cleaning done, I want to start on my Christmas pictures. I have a bunch for my mom and for my Facebook and here. It's fun but I still look at pics of me and think either "Wow, I'm huge" or "Do I really look like that?" My head has never caught up with my weight loss. Strange.
Well, I need more coffee and to start my Bible reading for the day. I sure am enjoying that. I know that there are a lot of issues on the board right now. I am trying to figure out a way to keep a list so I can pray more effectively. I just know I will forget somebody and I don't want to do that.
Love you all and have a great FRIDAY!!!!
Life isn't about about waiting for the storm to pass...
It's about learning to dance in the rain.
I didnt sleep well last night. Woke up at 2 am and I was up until 5, in horrible, horrible pain and couldnt sleep- Mike was up with me for a couple of hours too.... Felt bad for me, couldnt do anything for me, tho. Oh heck, I just cant stand this. Im counting down the days before I see the doc and I am going to beg, plead-get on my hands and knees and bow to her if I have to-but something HAS TO CHANGE! IT HAS TO!
I had to leave the house (against my will) yesterday to go get Darrel from art club. I messed up on what time I was suppose to pick him up by 1/2 hr, so I went to the dollar general while I was waiting-the ONLY store in Diamond.....and Jon and I found one of those Christmas light up villages-on clearance-75% off-and I got it for $10 instead of $40! I also got a huge blow up of the 2 penguins for $6 and the pkg of 3 light up presents for $3. I was so excited! We have the perfect place for the village and every year we talk about getting one-Mike has wanted one for the 12 yrs we have been together, but the price has always kept us from getting one-we have always put the money to better use. It was a spur of the moment thing yesterday, I didnt want to think about where the 20 bucks could go-I just figured that I was there-and shouldnt have been and it was a sign. So, I didnt think twice, stuck it all in my cart and away I went. I was like a little kid at Christmas! I was hurting so bad though, that I had to buy a drink in the store, so I could take some pain pills. This Sh*t is for the birds, im telling ya, Im getting really, really tired of living like this!
Well, this is going to be short....I have a lot to do and I am making myself go out and walk today because it looks nice outside!! Jon and I are going to take advantage of the sun, cuz the weather just changes from day to day anymore.
Please remember Deb, Tammy, Andy and Sandy in prayer as they have different issues going on. For everyone else on the board-I am praying blanket prayers for everyone here. Love, Janet
I hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful sunny day. I wi**** would stay like this.
I had one of the most beautiful special moments happen to me earlier. As some of you know I have alot of kids that call me mom, and their kids all call me mema. Well I haven't got to see my lil man Ryan since before my surgery so Kala went and got him today and brought him out. When they got here he was a sleep so Kala just laid him in my lap, he wasn't there long before his little eye's opened and when he looked up at me he got the biggest smile on his face, and in this little soft voice said Mema, then raised up to give me one of the best hugs ever. Yep, I had tears in my eye's. It was so awesome. He's such an angel.
Ryan and I ran and played and yelled and giggled, and of course more hugs and kisses. He loves talking on a cell phone, so I got out a couple of old ones and me and him would talk back and forth, and then he looked at himself in the mirror and talked to himself, he's such a funny little guy. I couldn't love him more if he was my own.
Lee and Kala will be bring him back later for me to play with, and to spend the night. He is a little chunck and they don't want me doing to much lifting on him, but thats ok we sure can roll around in the floor.LOL Plus, Larry will be here to help play with him, so that should be alot of fun.
Sorry to make this so short but I have a million things to do before they come back.
Jan it sounds like you and Joe are having a blast.
Hold up on all the marriage talk, we are still just friends. LOL
Janet please know you are in my thought's and prayers. I sure wish I could take your pain away. I love you and rememeber I'm always here for you.
I hope EVERYONE has a wonderful BLESSED day.
Love and Hugs
Renee
If He bring's you to it.... He will bring you through it.
