WHATS HAPPENING SUNDAY????

We did have rain yesterday but lots of sunshine too. , the way the weather talks will have more rain. I know it seems that it keeps getting more and more humid. And of course my bones hurt lol so what is new huh? Don’t mean to bore you with my aches and pains. There are a lot of people in this world that have a lot more pain, heartaches, tragedies etc etc than me...All I can do is thank God that he has chosen to let me be here today and hopefully tomorrow. 

 

Did a lot of work in the flowers yesterday, pulling weeds mainly, decided to water several different things and then it rains. Lol oh well it go****ered well after all.

 

Today I plan on painting the accent wall in the kitchen.  I put filler in what nail holes there were on that wall. And then I sanded them. So it is all ready...

I’m anxious to see how cute it will look. Can’t wait to see it.

Got to get Joe off his butt and get his part done. Lol

 

Got a phone call from Michele today, she has been calling me every day since they moved ...she is doing so good, going to church weekly and doing really well. Hasn’t done any drinking for over a month...I told her I am  really proud of her and she said well don’t be proud of me , give your thanks to God  cause without him I wouldn’t be able to do it at all. I about wanted to shout.. Praise God. ..She is working daily with her boyfriend, mowing lawns of these big homes in the area where she is living. They are making pretty good money I guess ...she is happy and said she is feeling better than she has in years.  Thank you Jesus.

 

Granddaughter and hubby and babies will be down here Monday. So need to go to town today to get some stuff lol ....will get to grill out and act like normal Holiday people lol

Will be fun to see the babies. Hope it is pretty outside so we can go out and play....

 

 

BARB::::: no haven’t heard from Janet since the meeting last week, I don’t know what is going on with her....I miss her post too. She is always so busy that it makes me feel like I am being lazy lol. Love the way she writes. As I do of several people on here. We have a lot of really talented people on here that can tell us good stories of the things they do don’t we.

 

Lol you would have to sneak in to get by me to see Susan without me seeing you wouldn’t you? Would be rather hard but I guess you could....

 

I know what you mean about not knowing anything when you don’t go with your hubby to the doctor....Joe does the same thing, doesn’t ask any questions and when he gets home I ask something and he says , I don’t know .....grrrrrrrrr , men.....I guess that is just the way most of them are. Lol

 

I have been watching it about not drinking and working really well since the other day. So don’t worry...I will be ok. I just don’t know when to quit sometimes. Lol

 

 

SUSAN:::::::: I meant to ask you were you able to eat all four oz of the cod? That is good. Was it grilled or what? I can eat some fish but  some I cant.....chicken I can do pretty good most of the time and hamburger meat ...anything denser like steak, chops, ribs etc is really hard for me sometimes I can get a bite or two down but most of the time not.

 

What happened to you yesterday afternoon? You took the wheelbarrow over but never came back....I got some more of the weeds out but man that is tough out there lol.

Think I am going to cover some of the veggies and spray weed killer on the bottom of the garden in the turn around areas....it is really thick there....

 

The lake has come up even more  yesterday afternoon I think....you know the rain up north of us in Springfield and farther all of it runs into rivers and they all run into Table rock and Table Rock isn’t going to let the lake get any higher than it is because it being a Holiday so they released it into Tanneycomo which also is recreational areas so they release it into Bull Shoals which was built to be the catch all lake , and they wont let them release too much at a time out of Bull Shoals because it will flood the White River below their dam so we are left sitting holding all the extra water lol ...that is why Bull Shoals has such high take lines though. And no one lives on the lakes edges....

 

 

JO:::::: you and your hubby need to come down and visit us when we finally finish up this guest house....you would have a lot to look at with my flowers and your hubby could get his hands dirty weeding if he wanted to , wouldn’t hurt my feelings at all .lol .

 

Tell me how you make protein ice cream??? Do you have to have an electri**** cream maker to do it? I keep thinking sometimes that I would like to get one of those as much ice cream as Joe can eat ....lol

 

Isn’t it funny about how now we think oh boy that looks so good and we take a bite and it is sickeningly sweet? I don’t know how we could have stood that before. , Joe eats so many sweet things that I don’t know how he doesn’t go into a sugar coma, sometimes I think he does....lol... but he will eat my stuff I make for me too. like I hunted and hunted for the sugar free graham cracker crust...finally found some bought two, haven’t been able to find more lol  but anyway make sugar free choc pie with sugar free cheesecake flavor on top of that , then put sugar free whipped topping on it ...well I got one small piece and he had a good size piece the next night I went to get me a piece and it was gone. He does me that way about  Protein balls,  or  anything I make for me  to have to have for a snack....I don’t mind him eating sugarless stuff , I wish he would do it all ... but he eats all of it , mine and his lol

 

Yes I too can’t eat 100 carbs a day and lose any weight... it just wont come off eating that many for me...ive always been like that though not just since wls. I don’t eat any thing white at all or try not to. Once in awhile I will eat a half slice of bread but not often maybe like once every couple of weeks or less.  There are so many carbs in so many things though.

I can’t even eat too many good carbs and lose weight.... just have to be careful....

How much weight have you lost so far? How much more do you need to be to your goal?

You are what 9 months out?

 

 

 

POOH BEAR::::::: sounds like you are getting ready for summer fun, jump on that trampoline for 30 minutes a day.....you will be slim and trim by the time summer is over lol ...what size pool do you have ? Two days to fill? Wow ? big pool ......I still wish I had one I would like to have a big above ground one that we could build a deck around and all....just don’t know where we would put it now...I don’t have a lot of room left lol

 

Isn’t it exciting to see new sprouts of seeds coming up that you planted ?? I think that is like seeing a new baby (well not quite ) but you know what I mean.  Now if someone would invent seeds that would magically keep the weeds from around it lol ...

I have some yellow tomatoes too, also some called Pineapple tomatoes , they have yellow streaks in them and then we have Big Boys....I think that is the name lol

Forgot to put in some cherry tomatoes. Hmmm I guess I will have to buy a plant and put it in one of the tubs I got from Becky no more room in the garden....I think next year we will put the viney plants out between the garden and the fruit trees....do the rabbits and deer like them ?

 

Pooh yeah I know what you mean about how God will talk to you from verses in the Bible when you are going though times but that is why it is called the Living Word.. It really does speak to us....I know forgiveness and acceptance is a hard thing to do when you have been done badly.. , like your childhood was bad but now you are grown and you need to drop those things and forgive . That is hard but you can do it. We all love you and know that you can reach the place in your life that you want to be. And know that you are free to come here and talk as much as you want. We are here to listen and hopefully you will be able to find a lot of the answers yourself from writing it all down....we love you and pray for you.

 Thunder boomers here. I did have time time to do a bit of weeding but couldn't get all the weeds. I even tried to dig them up. Just not strong enough. The outside is not supposed to be my job anyway. I planted some day lilies. I hope they survive. I know they multiply and come back every year. I don't know if deer will eat them or not. I hope not. I planted them close to some tulips. Deer eat everything here. They ate our peach trees down to the ground.
Didn't have much planned for this weekend which is good considering the weather. I would have liked to grill out but I guess the rain has a different idea.
I am still in a stall and have been for the last two weeks. I am hoping it will end soon. I haven't noticed myself shrinking. I have tried to up my protein but its been difficult. I haven't had an appetite
lately. I have been craving carbs and did eat a piece of bread this past week. I made some protein balls yesterday but they didn't turn out as good as I expected. At least they are protein. I know I will lose slower now than before but I hope it won't stop.
On a positive note I have barely made it into the overweight category according to the Wii. That is if my clothes weigh four pounds. I did have on jeans and a shirt and sweater. Yes I said a sweater. My Wii is in the basement and when the air is on its cold down there.

Have a great holiday everyone.

Hey girl, I guess Im going to need your address to return your $ to you..unless you are coming down anytime soon...

I probably can get it from Jan so I can send it to you.

You and one other is all I collected from so that settles that.

Hope everyone is having a terrific summer.

Mine seems full to the brim already but I guess that is the way I like it or I would stop the madness..lol
