WHATS HAPPENING WEDNESDAY

We went yesterday to pick up our power washer and the wand wasn’t on it . then they tried to say it wasn’t on there when we brought it in....well anyway we left with a new wand to our power washer. After a while anyway.. then we went to Home depot and got a few things and on to the pharmacy and picked up my meds . and was heading over to see Andy and Susan when my phone rang , was someone that wanted to see the rental house so we went on home so we could show it.  Wish you can see over the phone we wouldn’t have went out to show it......just suffice it to say that we don’t want them in there.  Every other word out of the mans mouth was a cuss word. I finally told him that I didn’t appreciate that language and if he could talk to me with out saying those nasty words to not talk lol well he shut up and didn’t talk. His wife talked after that and then they left .

The right ones will come along hopefully anyway....will have to see.

We are going to use the power washer on the outside of the rental house and the trailer today....get them both all spiffy and clean. That is something that I can do so will probably do that while Joe starts doing other things that need to be done.

Stopped at Mr. Wrights garden yesterday, a neighbor, and bought some  cucumbers from him to can up....Andy has this recipe for splenda bread and butter pickles....i love those will call Andy today and tell him that I will bring them up to him along with jars if he will do them up and he can keep some that way too,.

Susie I understand about the hillside and the weeds that is always a problem. That weed barrier stuff works ok the first year but after that the weeds start coming thru....if you can cover the junipers up in some way , are they great big? Then you might be able to use weed killer but you will have to be really careful and do it on a windless day and cover the junipers with cardboard or something so you didn’t get the weed killer on them ....or maybe the solution would be to plant a ground cover in there that would drown the weeds out ...but then you take a chance of it overpowering the junipers. Plant more junipers in there so there isn’t any room for weeds ? your guess is as good as mine on this....what ever stay cool doing it....

Andy and Susan sorry we didn’t get over to see you yesterday...had to go show the house and that turned out bad so wish we had just come over there instead. Lol

Congratulations on being below 300 now that is great.....just keep up the good work you will get there....you keep losing like you have been you will be under 200 before long.....how much have you lost this past year since you moved up here? Close to a 100 pounds haven’t you? So keep walking and adding exercise, since you have a pool there you can get in that and do exercise .

Susan sorry he beat you on going below the next level but you will get there quickly im sure....you lack very little too.

I sure do miss having both of you over next door....like we told you if you ever want to move back let us know and we will throw who ever is in there out . lol ....

Tres so good to see you on the board...glad you are doing well after your surgery. We  will see you and your friend on the 27^th? Hope so . I know you will have loads of questions so ask away at any time and at group there is lots of good information....

Get in your protein , and water and exercise  .....you will do great.

Lou  congratulations on your 9 month anniversary. You have done really well and so happy for you.  Keep up doing what you have been doing it is working well for you. I have been fighting dehydration too and I cant imagine how much we really have to drink to keep from getting that way....i am drinking about 80 to 100 oz a day and it still doesn’t seem to be enough. I go to the bathroom often enough so it doesn’t seem like you would get dehydrated but I think a lot of it is that I can stay in the sun longer than I should lol ..

Hope they find out what is wrong with your dads wife. 

Take care and keep drinking , I cant wait for the meeting and seeing what you will do with it....

Everyone keep drinking tha****er, nothing caffeinated if you can help it. that causes you to dry out some...so push the water. Love you all. Take care ...

Jo - Congrats on your anniv.  My 2 year anniv. is coming up.  It seems so long ago.

WARNING - Major whinning & venting! 

I really miss my dog and my other fur baby is losing her hair.  I really expected her to become depressed and not eat without Taylor but she was losing big clumps of hair instead.  She is eating well and I have made a point of walking her every evening over to the garden which seems to enjoy.  I have trimmed her so she looks skinned!

I am so tired of picking green beans and the many bug bites I get from being in the garden.  I wish Dad had staggered the greenbeans where they would not have come on at the same time.  4 rows are way tooo much!!!

I am Blanching, cold shocking  & then freezing them on trays then bagging them this year.  I may end up canning a few jars but I really want to save the jars for tomatos etc..
Zucchini is finally producing.

If anyone comes by we load them up - hint hint - you all come by and help yourselves!

I feel better now - just sad and not as teary as I was.

Sandy
