whats new??? thursday May 1st

love to hear your stories about your furbrats lol funny. and Melanie must be a hoot to be around. They usually are at that age.  It is a warm 63 hear right now suppose to get to 80 today. wish you had some of this warmer weather too.

Happy May Day Jan and Everyone, The best news for me -- the new medicine for hubby is having a positive effect and he's feeling better!  I'm very pleased.  Here's hoping he continues to have it manage his condition with ease.  Time will tell but we have lots of that -- time.  My son - voice of reason - suggested waiting on the treadmill purchase and having hubby walk the hallway in the condo first to see if he will do it and if it does offer any improvement before making such a purchase.  I'm so glad I raised sensible children!  LOL Quiet days at work right now.  Big changes coming as top management is making changes.  That always causes grief getting used to new timeframes and work styles.  Change - a big part of life! Have a good day one and all...... Kathi

HIJACK........hello Kathi!! Happy May Day to you too!!  I am so glad your hubby is doing better. I will continue to keep him in my prayers. I think waiting on the treadmill is a good idea too. You have a very smart son!! Hope you have a wonderful day! Hugs, connie d

Thanks very much Connie! You're so sweet to think of me with all you have going on.  Hope that laryngitis gets better quickly!  It's not natural for us girls to not be able to talk.... BTW I've been checking Caring Bridge every couple of days....  Sure hope Nic is doing well.

Hugs right back at ya!

kathi that is wonderful news about hubby's meds--praying here for you both....now about that sensible child--does he not understand that mom can also use the treadmill???? make ya wanna smack em some days!!!! hugs!

Thanks so much, Margo, Oh my son did mention I could use the treadmill too.  But I can walk outside without the breathing problems.  Yesterday's goals were to address hubby's situation.  But, you know, I coaxed him into walking the hallway just like my son said and it worked!  He did it because "Jeff" suggested it and not because I thought it might be a good idea which made me laugh.  Whatever it takes to get him to move.  He did 8 laps before being pretty winded.  That was amazing progress from before the new meds.  I'm thrilled.   Keeping great thought you know for you and Michael.  Hang in there and enjoy your last few days of freedom before you being your new job!  I'm so excited for you! Hugs, Kathi

Kathi, Not sure where in CA you live, but I got rid of my recumbent bicycle on Craigslist for free.  Often times there are all kinds of exercise equipment offered on there for nominal fees if someone will just take them away! Marti in San Jose 

Thanks, Marti! I've been looking there for a few months..... maybe something will show up.  We'll see. Kathi

Kathi, I'm not sure about your area, but in mine there are people all the time freecycling tredmills and exercise equipment.  You may want to see if you have an active group in your area. I love mine...... Glad to hear meds are working for him....

Thanks for the tip, Darlene, I'm going to check it out.  We have places called Play It Again Sports and sometimes they have used exercise equipment.  I can take my time this way to select something he can use and will benefit me as well! Freecycling.....  I'm off to search! Kathi
