AND IT IS SATURDAY, AGAIN, ALREADY
Congrats on your Wow moment! I know the first time I was able to walk up and back in the mall was a big thing for me (that is, without having to sit down). I still can't do stairs, though, not with my bad knees. I salute you!
And forget about that jumping up and down stuff.I've thought about calling you in the past few weeks but know how busy you have been with your daughter and granddaughters, so don't know if you would have time to chat. Maybe I'll give you a call anyway ... all you can say is you're busy, right?

Thank you. I'm doing ok, really tired today. I am at 9381 steps today, have almost reached my goal of 10,000. When I started using the pedometer in the spring I was at 2700 steps a day. so I am happy with my progress. Earl took my measurements today and I have lost over 32 " since February in addition to the 50 pounds. Not too shabby I think.
Tomorrow is my daughters bday and I 'll have the girls in the afternoon while she goes for a pedicure & manicure. Tomorrow night we are going out to celebrate her bday. I was going to call you the other day and then something came up with the greands and I got distracted. But give me a call sometime. I hope your knee is some better. I haven;t read the posts lately so I'm out of the loop.
Hugs, Paulette
Bill was up earlier and started hyperventilating. I had to take care of that. He always seems to get himself worked up when he has a cold. He says that he can't breath and he is right. I just try to calm him down and tell him to breath through his nose and out his mouth. It works but you would think that he would remember that. I swear that man would die if I wasn't here. He is up and around now and feeling MUCH better.
I on the other hand am feeling like I am not sure what. I have the sore throat and coughing. I have a headache and my nose is starting to feel kind of stuffy. I have a voice that sounds nothing like my own. Maybe that is a good thing since I can't stand to hear myself talk. I have a terrible voice. But, I have good news I do believe that I will live! I think that is a good thing for sure. I have just begun to live~oh yes~white lace and promises. A kiss for luck and we're on our way. Oh my gosh what memories that song brings back from the Carpenters. That was my old boyfriends and my song. Oh my I thought that I was so in love with Larry. Jeez how time flies and things happen.
Nothing much happening here today. It is a cool but sunny morning and I love day's like this. I know it is going to get hotter as the day goes by but the mornings are just a bit of heaven to me. I have TV Land on naturally. It is Saturday morning after all. I have a hour of Andy Griffith (this one is the one about the citizens arrest, I love this one) and then a couple of hours of my beloved I Love Lucy. No one loves Lucy more than I do.
I got a call from the District Superintend ant of the district and she wanted me to e-mail her our list of goals for 2009. I had that in an e-mail and had to get my gf's daughter to help me do it. I had one heck of a time getting into My Documents and then I had a terrible time getting it to go into a attachment. I finally got it done but with problems and some crying to go with it. Bill just sat by me and said nothing. He is a smart man for sure. Then she wanted the attendance for weekly worship and the membership too. Well, all of that is at the office and it is Friday night at 6p.m. so I had to estimate it all. She told me that she wanted it all "this evening" and I finally got it to her at 10p.m. I told her in the e-mail that I was sorry it was late but had problems getting the attachment in. I figure even is she gets it this morning, because she went to bed, it is better than waiting until Monday morning. Oh well, they get what they pay for, and trust me they ain't paying me a thin old dime. haha So I guess they are getting more than what they pay for. Look at things positively I always say. haha
I am sending lots of love and big old hugs to go with them. I am keeping everyone in prayers and special ones going up for those in need. Have a wonderful and blessed day and I will meet you all here tomorrow at the same place.
It's not what you gather, but what you scatter
that tells what kind of life you have lived.
Today promises. Don't know what...but something I'm sure.
Not much going on in this household.
I went to $4 this morning and did a little work. Wore me out. Doc is right, I guess. I am exhausted and this bronchitis is just starting. Got to get better so can have surgery in six weeks. He's talking about putting me on half days for awhile.
Need to clean house so will take it slow and easy and do a lot of napping inbetween.
Just nice being at home but feel guilty when so many I know are sitting in hotel rooms with family and other are at home with no power or water.

9 more days!!!!!!!! and it can't get here fast enough!!!! omg the tension is building here between rick and his mom over money!!!! (she needed to "borrow" $100.00 again from him!!!) i thought one of them was gonna have a stroke or something the way they were yelling at each other!!!! wish we could afford to go someplace for the next 9 days just for some peace of mind!!!! ended up having one hell of a headache and its still there!!! rick wanted to take me to er for some relief but i told him no i didn't need to go there for a headache...i was crying it hurt so bad...he rubbed my neck and shoulders even cracked my back to see it that would help it...i told him it sure felt good but the pain was still there...so he said he would make love to me and see if that relieved the tension...it hleped...some. still here yet this morning and hopefully it goes away when i get to work because its a long day at work today...1230-9 then we have a party to go to afterwards...and ofcourse his mom is also going to it....sighs...i love his mom but this is getting crazy with this headache and i can't get away from this tension here it seems.

love and hugs
Sitting here waiting for hubby to get his butt in gear. His suggestion this morning - let's go to the gym together. Well, if I had gone alone, I'd be back already. He finds more distractions. I'm the early bird, and would have been out the door by 7:30 (yes, even on a Sat. morning, I'm up and rready to go. After all, I leave home by 6:20 every morning!) I love my husband dearly, but he can find more things to dilly dally with. GRRR That's OK, catch back is a ***** I'll make him stop at the store on the way home. Just a little venting while he's getting ready!

I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.

It is a beautiful morning here in MN today. I love this kind of weather. I sure hope it lasts for a little while yet!! We all know what is coming....UGH!!!
I went out with a couple girlfriends last night. We had a good time. I spent alot of time talking with a guy I knew from high school. We danced alot and it was really nice. He asked for my phone number so we will see????
Today I am going to relax until later this afternoon. The bar we always hang out at is having their big Bouja Festival at about 5:00PM. I am not supposed to eat soup but I am going to make an exception this time...I love Bouja!!!!
Hope everyone has a happy day......George you have the most hectic craziest life.....sounds like mine most times!! You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Keep smiling!!
Love and hugs......connie d
