WHATS HAPPENING WEDNESDAY

wow yesterday afternoon felt like summer didnt it? guess we are long past winter and all that snow and horrible cold weather now. 

Yesterday we took the riding lawn mower into the doctor. no telling what that will cost us. but i know Joe cant keep mowing with the push mower this whole place at least he can get the outside edges mowed eaisler if we get that fixed. I have been doing my share of the push mower , i like doing that because it gets my heart rate up and keeps it there for awhile....makes me feel better when i do that too.
Then we went to Branson and i got 3 pair of the Thera Shoes all of the ones they had in my size. well no they had some of the slides but i put a pair on in my size and they were way too big they kept falling off my feet and the ones that fit didnt work either because of this knee and the way my leg swings around i kept kicking them off lol ....didnt think that would be too good at work. they might have fit better and stayed on better with a pair of socks dont know. I always wear socks at work.

Then we stopped on the way home and i got a few grocs. oh yes i made a stop at a nursery and got some vincas and some impatients. lol had to have my flower fix.  so i need to get out and get them planted this morning first thing....
The vinca are all the same color but the impatients are different colors.
Will have to wait until the 10th to get my other things for the window boxes. I told Joe maybe i ought to just go and get fake ones for there and wouldnt have to worry about them not being watered enough lol some of the fake ones it is really hard to tell the difference isnt it?

well need to get busy before it gets too hot. We have a lot to do today ...have a showing of the rental house to these people on Friday and we need to do some sprucing up...inside and out.

The temps here yesterday were perfect and no humidity.  It's cool in the morning but warms up.  Wi**** would stay like this.

Take note......I mowed the yard.  Yes, I actually mowed.  First time I've mowed in about 6 years.  Max had an MRI of his back and didn't get home until about 6:30.  The yard needed mowing and I didn't think he should do it although he says he feels fine.  His BP is still above normal.  Mowing isn't something I want to do on a regular basis but it was good exercise.  Would you believe it's the first time I've walked our yard and the first time I've been in our shed.  Our yard isn't very big but I had never been in the side yard.  We've lived here 3 years. 

I'm off today and will be going to the dinner theatre with a group from church.  The play stars John Davidson and looks like it will be good. 

Let me tell you this low carb thing is difficult.  I think I just need to do more exercise and then I can eat some carbs.  I just love Fiber One bars but they have 29 carbs.  That's almost a day's worth of carbs. 

Jan, what are you going to do about your leg?  Will you need surgery?  I need to get to KMart for those shoes. 

I need to steam clean the kitchen floor.  I have a new rug to put down.  Just love my Hahn steam cleaner.  I should get to it before we leave this morning.

Jo you could have knocked me over with a feather....you mowed???wow i cant believe it. LOL i cant ima gine never having been in the shed or the side yard ....
Im not sure about what to do with my leg. I think it needs to be redone but they are not sure what they can do ...I cant get anyone to admit that that surgeon really messed it up ...

Good morning to all.sure is a pretty day outside already.it sure did get warm yesterday.supposed to be the same way again today.

i would like to ask prayer for my brother.he is supposed to go to a meeting on june the 16 in st louis to get started on the road to weight loss surgery.his doctor told him to go.he has  a lot of health problem's and he has already lost one leg to high  blood sugar and othe thing's.if he does not do something soon he could lose the other leg and even his life.i told him if he does what he is supposed to do after surgery he would get off his insulin and  a lot of his med's.

jan we sure have been keeping busy around work.last night you would have thought it was a full moon.some of the resident's are like a bull in a china shop.lol.there were a few of them last night we had to feed the very first thing so they would stay and eat something they wanted to keep on leving.there was no way to keep them still.i work today and tomorrow then i am off friday and sat so i will see you on sunday.glad you got some of thoses shoes for work.they sure do help in walking and standing on our feet soo much.

Susan i will really be praying hard that your brother will go thru with this surgery ...i know he really needs it but do you think he would follow the rules if he did?
Hey keep my babies at work taken care of. lol Hopefully we will have an easy day on Mothers Day.  

 Next week is my last week to sub at school. I am not going to be there the last week. I have been at the elementary some lately and boy do they have energy. I prefer the high school group. I guess even though I have more energy than before I am getting older. I know I need more sleep  and maybe need blood work done again to make sure my vitamin levels are ok. I could just be overworked which is most likely.

 I am getting worried because this week I have gained three pounds. I know I have been eating more and I am scared it is real gain. I am just going to have to really pay attention now. I may even have to break down and do some exercise although I am hoping not. I guess I will start doing the push mowing to make myself move more. I hope its jus****er weight but I am at that time frame.

Susie just because you get to a certain mark doesnt mean you have to gain weight.  If you have to push the mower to get exercise then that is good.  lol ....LIke i said i gained a tiny bit but i have taken it back off and have stayed exactly the same for almost 4 years now. I think the ones that have the most trouble keeping it off are the ones that have lost down below what their bodies want to be. I may be way off in my thinking on that one tho....
