it's Saturday-what's new?

Yeah, but really that's not all that funny. I remember my Mom before she died, walking down the hall at the nursing home and letting farts the whole way....thinking to myself I'll never do that.....guess what, depending on what I eat,
it does happen to me now.....oh dear!!!!

My mom does that ... she gets up and farts everytime ... it's rather funny at times because I don't think she realizes it.

candy i am lol at the walking farts....guess who had them tonight...ME!!!! omg all i thought about was you and the walking farts and i farted even more LOL (just had to share thatwith you...lol)

hugs

Good morning Margo and my other dear ones. I hope that today brings you all the happiness that you deserve.

I wasn't around yesterday if anyone missed me. I was so busy and just didn't find the time. Nothing exciting but it is a bit of a life. lol

Bill and I went out to breakfast with his cousin. We had such a nice time talking with her. Oh my gosh can that woman eat too!!!!!!!! I endulged myself and had a peice of fat french toast with sf syrup and a peice of bacon. It was soooo good too. lol That is what began my day yesterday. Bill got off to work and then the busy started.

I think I have another mother. The woman across the hall from me is 90 and I have her cominng over here at least a half dozen times a day to help her do something. I have to help her with the sippy cup for her great grandson and then do this and that. I guess I don't mind since I would like to think that if it was my mom someone would help her too. I had to make out her tax form since no one had helped her with the stimulus payment. I would think her kids or grands would have helped but no. They sent her another form since she hadn't filed. I got that done and in the mail for her. She is so sweet and sooooo much energy. She gets around faster than I do for God's sake. lol

I went to Wal Mart and got a few things. I had to get bread and bananas. I ended up spending $40 and don't have a thing to show for it. lol But isn't that what stores are known for? lol

I talked with Ella and others on the phone and that took up some of my day too. I just wasn't to into television yesterday either. For some reason I just couldn't get into anything that I put on. Maybe some of it is the reruns and some of the rest of it might be I just plain get tired of listening to them go on and on about the same crap just a different day.

Ella and I are going rummaging this morning. She is going to call me when she gets home from Weigh****chers. That should be about 9:15. I have to get my breakfast and my shower and that should about do it. We love to rummage and we have only done it a couple of times this summer together. That is when we have the most fun. We check out all of the treasures. But we don't go to every one of them usually. We drive by some and see if there is anything that jumps out at us. lol It use to be if there was a lot of kids stuff we would motor on by. That has changed now since Ella's grandbaby Izzy is here. She is 5 months old and a little doll baby. We shop for her now. lol

I got Bill off to fishing just a bit ago. He is going with our nephew. They love to spend time together and so this is the way they like to do it. Who am I to say he can't go? It isn't something that I would want to do to spend time with someone but what do I know? I also wouldn't want to stand up to pee either!

I mentioned to Bill when he gets home and I do too that we should go through the bags of clothes that is here in the living room that I got from other people. I told him that I am beginning to feel like I live in a used clothing store of something. He agreed. lol I told him that we can look at at the stuff and see what I am not going to wear and then take them over to Goodwill across the street. Yes I have a Goodwill right across the street from me and I hate it. I can hardly ever get something from that one. My favorite one is Valparaiso and it is the opposite with my aunt. This one is her favorite one and she can never find anything in Valpo. It is strange how people are. Their differences and similarities.

I weighed myself yesterday and I am down to 193!!!! I lost 1.6 poounds. I may be over the hump but I am not going to hold my breathe on that one! I may look good in blue but I am not thinking that they meant my skin. I have to update my ticker. It feels like it has been forever since I have had to do that. I am now at 98 pounds lost. I am also soon going to be a member of the century club~hooray for me. When I get there can someone help me to get a small century card? I so want to put it on my signature. I have seen the big ones and the small ones and small is better to me. lol All the way around if you ask me!!

I better get going. I hope and pray that everyone has a wonderful day and I am sending my love and hugs to all. I am keeping everyone in prayers, with special ones going up for those in need of them.

What is the papaya pills for? I never heard of them and want to know since I am a inquiring mind this morning. If I wanted them do I get them at a vitamin store or health food store? That is where I would think they are but who knows? lol

it is an enzyme that is supose to help with breaking down the foods that get stuck. Meat tenderizer is supose to do the same also...

The guy at my health food store said eating a couple of chunks of pineapple after a meal works the same way (and pineapple is so good). Same enzymes.

the papaya pills are to break down the protein enzymes and they also taste good as you chew them up...so glad i remembered i had them here!!! i got mine from phyllis a friend of mine and she got them at the grocery store i think or walmart.

hugs

Good Morning Margo...Glad Michael is sleeping again, but I agree with Susan...Ambien should be watched for wierd things. They have recorded people on Ambien getting up in the middle of the night and eating and driving and with absolutely no recall of the events.

I have AM Style on [QVC] and have picked up a couple of things. It is Fashion Saturday and it sure is easy to shop on TV, but I do have to go shopping for real for a gift, but I have TIVO'd Fashion Saturday......might miss something good.
[just had to edit...I just got a gorgeous black washable suede long coat.....it will be so wonderful to show houses in...love it! it was the Hot Pick with Leah's AM Style]

We are going to a pool party today and fortunately it is a gorgeous day. We are babysitting our two little grandsons, so they should be fun to take, then their Mama is coming to get them around 5pm [Kathleen is a Wedding Coordinator at church and has a wedding today] 

It is a fun group of friends, but my only real problem is when I said "Let me know what I can bring"...she said "How about that delcious BLT dip you made last year?...and I have no idea what she is talking about....I vaguely remember it, but of course no recipe, so I guess I need to dig a little.

We went out to dinner last evening....you know Friday in Wisconsin is Fish Friday....[except I have a cup of soup and a side salad]...then we went to play cards as usual.....but my bottom was just having a very hard time.[from where I cracked my tailbone] So I had a couple glasses of wine...it was such a lovely evening on their screened porch and I love to play cards.....but then I threw up the wine....well actually got the "foamies". My girlfriend kept bringing me different pillows to sit on and I eventually made it through the three games [1:00 am] but was very very happy to get to my bed.

Well, I am off to get my cappachino and gift [Housewarming for clients-[ actually just a $100 gift certificate to Pier One ]
I will probably stop at a few garage sales and see if they have any Care Bears, videos, toys or other valuable things for my babies.....and of course dig up[ or make up] a recipe for BLT Dip??

Hope your weekends are wonderful and relaxing, you all have earned one.
Hugs, Marti
