WHATS HAPPENING TUESDAY
Really good meeting tonight....sure wish you all would have been there. We talked about exercise and what was best ...it was decided that what ever you do and love to do is what is best. .if you are committed to doing something daily for the rest of your life then that is what is best for you.
A few people have ask me how you go about getting medicare to pay for your gym membership. Im not really sure . I just know I got a thing one day saying that it was paid for ..they would know where ever you are thinking about going. Did you ask Curves or where ever about the program? I know some places are covered and some aren’t . I will try to find out more about this and let you know ok....
Janet thank you so much for bringing that pretty little baby to the meeting , She is a darling and so good ...wanted to bring her home with me....and she looks in person like you too...she looks like you too.
Brenda we all missed you and hope you are getting better and love you much. We will continue to pray for you and your recovery...
PEGGY::::: sure wish you could have been with us last night too...will see you in a couple of days ....im excited about comeing up there. No new stories about any more critters? Lol
I hope your sale is one of the best ever and despite the rain that people come in groves. But not before I get what I want lol.
BARB:::: yeah you explained it right I just read it wrong. Lol....it will be fun to see you Thursday too.
TAMMY-AMMY::::: my goodness sweetie at the babies....you are going to be knee deep in babies. You should see Janets grandbaby she is adorable . lol I know she isn’t any more so than yours tho . is she? My grandmother use to say that every old crow thinks her little crow is the blackest.. . I guess we mothers and grandmothers and greats too all think ours are the sweetest and prettiest....which they are.
Sorry to hear about Christa hearing. Hopefully it is temporary. Will keep her in my prayers as will keep Bubba in my prayers. It is awful to think of some ones baby going to war and shouldn’t be any war but this ole world like it is I don’t know when that will end and there be peace . Only God knows that. So we will trust Bubba to him and his protection.
Oh yeah Loved having the mamas there last night. We had Lous mom, Renees almost mom and Janets mom. Was great. Girls tell them thanks for coming. They all were a delight.

Just wanted to pop in quick and answer those that want to go to the gym using Medicare. First you have to call Medicare and have them send you a "Wellness" form. Medicare has a wellness section but Im not sure of the number so just call the main Medicare number and they will get you there. Not all gyms are associated with the "Wellness Program" and Im not sure if Curves is a part of that or not, just call curves and ask if they particpate in the Medicare Wellness Program. When Medicare sends you the information there will be a form to fill out and send back in, then they will send you a Medicare Wellness Program Card, thats what you take to whatever gym participates in the program, there might be a co-pay of a couple bucks. Hope that helps anyone interested in doing that.
Sure had a great time at the meeting last night, got some good ideas for excersing and all. Missed those that were able to be there. Hope everyone has a great day.

The guy we got the tent from goes to our church and he kept fussing at us for getting such a big tent. So after it got put up (and it is HUGE) we took him in the house and showed him the boxes. He gasped! (I TOLD YOU!) and we told him there was still more. I do think the tent is big enough to put the furniture under it also. We'll see today as we start unpacking boxes (yet again!). Today and tomorrow should be nice enough to get ready. Thursday is supposed to rain (again) then supposedly be clear Friday and Saturday. We'll see. I just know I am done. I need to get out of here, do some visiting and not have to think about this.
Not sure if my mom is coming. Haven't heard from her. She may make it up tomorrow. (I almost expect her not to come up.) Barb....I WILL let you know this afternoon if I need your help tomorrow. I just won't know until then. I am so sorry. BUT if you have plans, for heaven's sake, don't cancel them for me. This stuff is just not that important.
I think I am more excited about seeing those of you that may come than anything else! I sure hope you take lots of stuff with you (heehee)! Trust me, for 20 bucks, you can have Christmas and birthdays covered for YEARS!!! Have a great day you all and love you dearly!
PS....anybody heard from Bec? I know she's busy but I'm worried about her.

Life isn't about about waiting for the storm to pass...
It's about learning to dance in the rain.

I only have to work half a day today thank goodness. I am zonked from my trip. I am about to head out to school but wanted to pop on and say hi to everyone. Stay dry.
I went to the Dr. yesterday to get the results of my labs. My protein levels are down to 16 and should be 20-40 so she told me 2 scoops wasn't enough I have to go to 3x a day. My thyroid is low but that could be my fault I haven't been taking my medicine daily I forget....oops! She said my sodium was high which means I'm not drinking enough water.....bummer! My A1C (3 month glucose levels) are low which tells her that I have been having a lot of low blood sugars which means my insulin is high. She said that could be due to the low protein levels? She said I should be exercising at least 30 min a day to help level out my blood sugars which I haven't been doing. She also put me on Vit. D. once a week Rx form. I thought I was doing so well guess I have to tweek a few things but over all I know I'm doing better then I was in Dec. when I was in ICU. She scheduled me for a mamogram and a bone desensity test, oh and a pap smear all of which I have never had so a little nervous about that all these upcoming test.
I went to the gym this morning and worked out, going to try and do that daily some sort of exercise anyway. I'm going to set a goal for this week to drink more water and less iced tea and to do 3 protein things a day.
I wi**** was sunny and warmer out I would love to go on a bike ride at the park but it's supposed to be cloudy and raining all week.
Well, guess I better get some lunch and get some chores done. Take care and God Bless!!!!!
