WHATS HAPPENING FINAL EDITION SUNDAY

Got up yesterday morning  and after drinking our coffee or rather Joe drank coffee, I had some coffee in my protein... I love that stuff early in the morning....the last couple of days I have been putting a sugar free version of coco mix in there first and then put the coffee in it.  makes a mocha Coffee Latte really good stuff.

Went to Wal mart and got a few things , needed protein powder and a couple of other things ....uh oh they had bedding plants on sale for 95 cents for a six pack , nice looking plants....I have been needing some impatients for some shady areas. Well I now have 15 six packs that I have to get planted tomorrow morning. I have window two window boxes on the front of my house , one side gets sun and the other side is shady most of the day....so one side I plant petunias and the other side I plant impatiens, but I plant them in the same colors and most people don’t notice the difference. Lol ...then I need to plant my overturned wheel barrow with the impatients. I love that effect.dont know where else I will plant them but will find a place for them...

 

Then stopped at the dollar store I had a 10% off of the total bill.  Got that from granddaughter off the internet.... came in handy for sure......

Then went to save a lot groc  they had bananas on sale  3 pounds for a dollar  again this week....we love those nanners....

 

By the time we got home and put everything away and had lunch or what ever you call it. it was food anyway.....

 

Does anyone know where Peggy is? I need to thank her for the lovely gift she sent me...it is beautiful....Peggy if you are reading this tho your not posting  want to say thanks sweetie. ...

 

Havent done much of anything yesterday but I will make up for it today. will do the planting of the impatients and need to do more weeding in the garden. Also need to fertalize again.... so that will take a little while because when I fertalize one place I do everything. And it takes 12 of the packages that you put in the containers that you use your water hose with......lot of fertalize  and take awhile to do it too. usua

lly around 2 to 3 hours.

 

SUSAN ::::: WHERE  WERE YOU TODAY.....missed seeing  you on here. ...are you ok?  Hopefully I get time to pick green beans today.....i think we have plenty to  bag up at least 3 or 4 bags and need to pick the broc. That is ready so it doesn’t go to seed. I hopefully while you all are at church will be able to give you bags of stuff when you get home....

 

JO::::::oh yeah I probably will be on here  daily will be hard to break the habit I guess. Lol , but just knowing I don’t have to will make it easier.....It isn’t that im more busy than others . it is just that I have been doing it for too long.....i still will be here and will still be available to any of you  that want anything. .

Sounds like you got some great bargains at the thrift shop.....i like going to them too. I have a hard time finding anything there tho

Oh about you being new here , you are as qualified to start the Whats Happening  as anyone,  nothing required to startrt it really. And who ever does it can be as simple as telling what you did the day before or you can say things to otheres daily or what ever. Or you can get on and say :::: hey another day,,,,,post  people , im drinking coffee right now so chat away....any thing is acceptable , and anyone can do it anyway they want or not...i just hope the board wont die off like it was before.

 

 

BARB::::: LOL silly girl...i will still be on here  just not doing a regular post that  I have to do.  Do you really like to read about what I do daily? Isn’t it getting boreing  to you? I think it has to most everyone.

Take care of your head ache....have you gone to the doctor.? Wish you would come down and stay with me for a few days.....How is your husbands hand? Is it healing right?

 

 

DEBBIE  D::::::so sorry that your hubby hasn’t  found a different job. Im glad and had no doubts that God will take care of everything for you...sometimes it is hard to remember than and we start making all sorts of  excuses and  miss all the blessing the Lord is giving us .....

You call me anytime you want to. But I will be on here , a lot , maybe even daily even who knows. Especially when I find articles about wls that they have proven ,  Like the article I put on line about Calcicum Citrate.  I hope everyone read that ......I am trying to find some infor that is backed about any other vits. And also on protein supplements.

Thank you for saying that I am a blessing to some.  But I do think that none of the newer people that come on the board don’t have that same feeling lol

 

 

Thanks to everyone for making the last few years such a Joy ....I have grown as a person because of you  all , the time has flown,  as they say time flies when your having fun and I have had fun for sure.   Take care everyone and I will be on the board so im not going anywhere.  And once in a while I might even pop on and ask  WHATS HAPPENING.

Good morning everyone!  Busy weekend again.  I showed property all over the country yesterday to some first time home buyers.  We had so much fun, then went to see the Springfield Roller girls kick some bootay at the roller derby.  That was fun. Today I have an open house and next weekend we are going on a two day float trip.  I can hardly wait.  I'm ready for a break. 

Jan:  Thanks for all you do for this board.  I know its bound to be hard and time consuming.  Thanks for being the only person to make a nice comment about my new pics.  Whatever anyone thinks of me I have worked so hard and done everything "by the book" and I am very proud of my accomplishments.  Enjoy your extra time  you deserve it. ;)  I hope everyone has a great day! Lou (~.~)

t hank you Lou, i just need some time for myself right now ...i am staying around on the board i just dont want to feel like i HAVE to post  You are doing a great job on the weight loss. ...Jan

Hello Jan;

I have heard from Peggy just yesterday. She is  ok. She is getting ready to go to Washington to her daughters and then her daughter will return with her for a few weeks. She then will have surgery then end of July. She is really ready for the surgery.

Now I can say "Silly Jan" lol, no I don't get tired of hearing what you do all day. Everyday, I wish I had your energy on a daily basis or maybe I wish I had your passion for your flowers.

Jan, I do think you underestimate your value on this board. I do understand the time issues, but you are so important with your wisdom and kindness. You are a blessing to not just the board but, to those of us that has had the pleasure of becoming a FRIEND. You are one of my most valued and respected friends. I do know if I needed anything you would be there if possible.

My headaches do not respond to any over the counter meds, no, haven't been to the doctors for years for just that. When I had the wreck last year, I had lost of mri's and cat scans and they found nothing, well just a itty bitty brain but, nothing major.

Hubby's hand is doing ok. He started therapy last week. It's still in the brace but, swelling is gone and he says it's better. He will be glad when they take the brace.

Baby is great, she thinks it's winter again with the A/C on. She spends alot of time on the heating pad. LOL    She is such a joy and comfort to me. Don't know what I would do without her now.

I am trying to find the time to come visit. Really I am but,  Anissa is keeping us busy with vollyball camps. She has never played before and is loving it.

Well, need to start my day.

Hugs

Barb I appreciate the kind words...thank you. . I just want some time for me so that i don't have to cut everything short to have to post ...I still love all of you and no one has done a thing that is making me not do the post for awhile i just need a break....Hopefully someone will pick it up and run with it ...I would hate for the board to get silent again.
You are one of my dear friends and i hope you come down to see me sometime this summer. I am usually home. lol and you have my phone number dont you ? if not email me and i will give it to you.
So many others that started out at the same time i did have more or less dropped off the board with the excuse that they are so busy, so i feel like i need to have the time to be so busy....Joe is wanting to go for rides on the trike in the evenings and that is the time i had to try to write some of the post so that is partly what we are going to be doing.. dont know what else. . love you girl and im not deserting anyone ...if you have questions get on the board and ask away. someone , maybe me will see them and give you an answer. I didnt mean that for you Barb im sure you know most of the answers too .lol ...i was talking about newbies.......so love to all....

Good morning all!  We got more rain overnight.  DH said is it doesn't stop raining we are going to lose our flowers because they are too wet.  I'll try pushing the rain clouds south!!

I'm playing hookie from church but did listen to Joel Osteen.  He is very motivating.  I ordered a couple of things from him, one about the workplace.  I need motivation there.  Would sure like to retire but can't do it financially right now, maybe in a year.  I've worked steady since 1973 so I'm a little burned out and so tired of office politics.  Joel's message today was about how you can improve yourself at work so I ordered the CD.

Well, that was really off topic.  I have my dress partially sewn together.  Looks like I need to shop for interfacing and things I need to make clothing.  I can feel the juices stirring after being still for several years.  I used to love making my clothes then got out of the habit as the size got bigger.  This dress even has a belt.

I was 11 months out last Monday and didn't even realize it was another milestone until today.  I see my surgeon on July 9th.  I was so hoping to have at least 80 lbs. off by then but don't think it will happen.   This week I must get back to the gym.  Otherwise, I just don't do any exercise.  I'm active at work and very energetic both at work and home, but it's just not the same as exercising.  Instead of walking on my lunch hour I go to a quiet place and read.

I got DH an Apple Pie that was only $3 at Price Chopper.  I had about 1/4 of  a slice but it didn't sit well.  Didn't make me dump but my pouch wasn't comfortable.  I continue to taste things I remember tasting good but most of the time I don't want another bite.  I tend to prefer  healthy foods. 

Jan, I received that article about calcium, very good.  On one of the boards here someone questioning the cost of bariactric vitamins and calcium.  Someone responded that they just take gummies which I took to mean children's vitamins.  I responded that you must use products specifically for bariactric patients. 

Have a great Sunday!!

I dont think you have to buy the expensive vitamens from that website or anything but i do think you need to take adult multi vits and good ones. but you can get good ones at wal mart too. like Nature made  they are on the top of the list for good true to form vits.     I order all of my stuff from  Puritians pride online they are a lot cheaper than normal and are made with good stuff.   People just need to look and compare and find what vits are made right .....and then look at the dosage and take what they need to take....so many people seem to think they can skate thru wls without doing their vits and proteins and i am so afraid for those people .....I know several people that are 5 and 6 and 7
years out that thought that and they are all of a sudden winding up with bad hearts, one lady i know is so forgetfull that  it is awful and another one has had 3 broken bones in the last year.....so it will and does catch up with everyone. I know i preach and preach  about protein, protein protein, and vits and i know it gets tiring for everyone but i only do it because i love everyone....and want the best for them.....

love and hugs Jan

Hi Mimi...

I'm back again from the sil hoping that it would be the last trip but not so... one more I guess.

I wanted to say thank you for all the years you have done this post.  You and this post have such been a blessing to me! 

I sure understand you not doing it as I know it was a huge time consuming task.  I hope you get the time you need for yourself now and it takes some pressure off.  

Say... one of the plants you gave me is now blooming... it's a red feathery bloom!  So different! I'm enjoying it... I will transplant it when it is done blooming to a place where it can spread. Do you know what I am talking about?

I have been enjoying a "handful" and I do mean just a handful of snow peas... I put them in a tub the few that came up in the garden and they did right well only there just was not enough of them! ~tee hee

Well... Crystal and I tore up the house and got 4 rooms done yesterday and have 4 to do today... I hope to be able to move to the garage on the weekend and the first couple of days next week before another trip down south.

Mimi... blessing and more blessing to you, and thank you again for all you have given of yourself to help others.

Bec
