Thursday WLS express
Good Morning My TMB Family,
Well it's almost Friday...We have no big plans for the weekend. Soccer game on Saturday afternoon, and then Church on Sunday. I am hoping my DH and DS will take me out to eat for mothers day but we will see. Money is tight these days and have so much to do around here. Today is National Day of Prayer and they are having a little ceramony here in town at the park this afternoon. I plan to attend. One of the men from our church is going to be speaking. I am looking forward to it. The rest of my day is free....I plan to clean and do laundry once again! Seems the laundry is a never ending chore. I skipped my walk yesterday and did 45 minuets on my WII fit and today I am feeling it in my arms and legs. I guess that is a good sign. I will walk today. Per some advice from Stephanie I am trying to shake things up a little. I made SF snickerdoodles the other day and I really should no better cause they taste so good, and go down like nothing. Think I will send the rest of them to work with Mark, then I am not tempted. There are some things I just cant resist and they are one of them. THey call my name every time I walk into the Kitchen. If ya'll would do me a favor and keep my Mom and Dad in prayer as they head back to Massachusetts today. Every year that trip from Florida to Mass gets longer and harder for them, but they do it anyone. Tomorrow night they will be with My Marine for the night. Lucky them. Ok its about that time. Prayers this morning for Lynette and her Mom, Anette and her family, Mark so glad he is home, Liz although I love the fact that you started the train for us this morning...GO TO BED and try and get some sleep. Laura, keep us posted about that job. If they are smart they wont hesitate to hire you right away! Danni, I can only imagine the emmotions going on inside you right now. I am not sure I could do it. You are such an insperation to the rest of us Military Wives. I am here if you ever feel like chatting! Time to get Eric up. Have a blessed day. Love you guys. Michelle
Thursday, great, weekend is near!! DD is flying to Wisc. this a.m. on business. Have to go to her house in a few mins. SNL went back to work yesterday and seemed it make it alright. Hope he didn't overdo it. I'll be staying over there tonight cause he can't lift the girls at all. Got to get moving. Y'all have a GREAT day!
Blessings,

Just a quick note this morning. Will read later.
Astham is bothering me and I feel like my hed is going to explode. Headache may be from the asthma, when it gets bad enough and I'm not getting enough air this happens. I'm seeing the practitioner at my docs office at 930am. They think I need another round of steroids and maybe a shot becuase I haven't fully recovered from the bronchitis of two weeks ago. I hope it works!

Good morning all,
I am feeling tons better. No, not 100% yet, but I was able to use the stairs again. I have been taking the elevator since I couldn't breathe from the bronchitis, but today, I took the stairs. Woohoo!! I'm still coughing some, I'm still congested some, but that's lingering allergy stuff that won't go away any time soon. Unless we ban all trees, grass, flowers, you get the idea.
Life continues at home. Mom is mom. Dad is adjusting. He's trying to research more so he understands more. It's confusing for him still.
Britt has Prom on Saturday. She's excited. Senior year is winding down. Her boyfriend is looking into joining the Navy like Josh. Britt wants to work for NASA so she is still trying to decide what to do. Terry, I told her she needs to visit you this summer for a tour. And not just of the beach. LOL.
Have a super twisted Thursday. I like that one Alissa. Saying prayers for all, especially my John-John today.
I'll see what I can do about getting her onsite; if nothing else, I'll get her a VIP ticket / tour thru Space Center Houston!! My cousin is the HR director at Space Center Houston - nice to have family in high places!!

Tonight I've got a few things on my to do list. I've got to head to Walmart to pick up some groceries. I've finally run out of some things and I must replace them. Then I need to go down to the gym for at least 20 min, hopefully more, but I'm being realistic with my time. I'd also like to get some more boxes unpacked, but that may have to wait till we get one more shelf.
I'm happy to report that I've been off my blood pressure meds for a week and my blood pressure has been picture perfect. My doc wanted it to stay below 135/85 and the highest it's been was 117/73. Woohooo!! I can finally stay off the meds so the only thing I'm taking are supplements.
I hope everyone has a fantastic day! Do something nice for yourself today!

Good Morning OH Family!
Mom is doing well, she still is bed ridden, but her spirits seem to be good. Hospice nurses have been really nice and they just love both her and Dad. I'm staying with Mom while Dad goes to the store and runs some errands. He won't leave her side. They have neighbors that would love to sit with her while he runs errands but he doesn't want to leave her. Going to take my niece out to dinner tonight to celebrate her HS graduation. This is Mark's youngest kiddo Shelby. I bought the book The Shack yesterday and started reading it. I'm 1/2 way thru it. Easy read and inspirationl. Well I better get going. Hope everyone has a wonderful day. Prayers for John for healing. Continued prayers for Debra and Mark. Please take a moment today to realize how blessed you are!
Your loved!
Lynnette
