Good Morning George and Everyone.........

Not much new with me. I am so glad it is Friday. This has been a super long week!!

My plans for the weekend are going out tonight for dinner and then dancing with Dwayne.
Saturday morning we are going to a town north of here to pick up Dwayne's other car. He has it in storage there.  Then out with friends in the evening.....more dancing!!
Sunday is lounging around and then meeting up with friends for the Super Bowl Game. That will be a fun party!!

I am hoping all of you with the flu and colds get better soon. Margo...I really feel for you sweetie. Judy...my mouth hurts thinking about your tooth!! Carla...hopefully you are home and resting today. Linda S....my prayers and love continue. I have CRS and can't remember who else I was going to leave a message for.....sorry.

Special prayers to those in need.

Keep warm everyone and I will try to do the same.

Love and hugs to all.....connie d

I am so glad it id Friday. I am going to Curves after work to sign up. I had a royal hissy fit with Humana, my insurance. It is one of those when everyone on Medicare signed up with other insurances, they just took the medicare payment and you didn't have to pay extra. Well all of a sudden my co-pay on my meds went up and then I got this "coupon book" where they wanted me to send them $70 a month. I had no notice and no choice, so I ignored it. I got a nasty gram saying I owed them $138 now and if I didn't pay they would drop me but I would still owe them through March. I called just furious,told them I didn't want their stinking  service. The rep says I can't cancel you , you HAVE to request in writting. I am mad because they send out fancy magazines and calenders. A nurse( who I have no need of) calls me so often it's annoying. I can go to the Y for "free" and now I get this thing saying I can go to Curves fror "Free". I don't want all these bells and whistles, I just want affordable health care. I have very little  spending money a month and now it will have to go to insurance. So if I have to pay extra I will go to their stupid Curves. But they are closed from 1- 3 in the afternoons. I wor****il 1 so I would have wanted to go at 1 or 2. We will see if I keep up with this. 2 days of that and 2 days of walking in the Botanical gardens ( altho I probably won't be able to afford my renewal ..grrr)  and I will be happy with my weekly exercise.
   I am planing a quiet weekend. Tonight is church board meeting. Tomarrow I have to stay home to conserve gas. No football fo rme on Sunday. To me that is go to the Mall cause all the men are home watching TV day. But I will be staying home. sigh. I need to rest up anyway if next week is Baby week. Our weather is suppose to be very nice this weekend yippee.  Now that I have ranted,raved and pouted. ( thanks for listening) I must be back to work..Thank God I have a job.

I am 2 pounds from my goal!!!!!!!! Hot dog!

I have a coffee date tomorrow. All my clothes are too big!

Still FREEEEEZING! Another storm rolling in for Monday and Tuesday!

GUESS WHO!!!!!!!
I'M HOME and I am even standing upright!!!! Um Im onthe road to recovery.
Carla 

Great news Carla!!!!!!

Sounds like everyone has good plans for the weekend!

We are going to visit friends after supper tonight.  I baked a pork loin and will have that with some leftover pinto beans and 1/2 baked potato (if I get it all down)

I want to get the bathroom cleaned tomorrow after I walk the treadmill.  I also want to go to the hospital to check on a 97 year old lady who fell this last week breaking a hip and shoulder.  She is such a sweetie, and when I talked with her on the phone this morning she sounded weak.  The pain medicine is making her sick.  My grandkids will be coming over Saturday night to spend the night.

Sunday School, church, a pot luck, take the grandkids home, stop at a birthday party for couple who the man is 91 and the woman is 90.

I have a retreat to go to on Monday and Tuesday and my husband is going with me this time.

Welcome home again, Carla!

Hello Everyone. I haven't been on in awhile the computer has been acting up. I hope it's fixed now.
   Well, this morning I had my taxes done. I'm getting back quite a bit this year. My Sister does taxes for me. She's really good at this too. I will get my refund Feb. 13th. This is much needed money. Since Hubby isn't working. He's still looking. Bad time to be out of a job though.
     Nothing much going on here. I'm glad to see Carla is home. To everyone else that has been sick, I hope you get to feeling better soon. I haven't been sick just a little depressed. But hopefully things get better soon. Getting a good refund will help with some of the depression. I can quit worrying about bills alittle. This will help us stay afloat till hubby finds a new job.
       Some of my depression is from missing my Mom. The 25th was the anniversary of her death. It's been 7 years but I just miss her so much.  I had a little set back with my eating. Then I went to group it was about emotional eating. Just what I needed to get me back on track. I've lost 3lbs. I also learned to think about it this way. My Mom would be so proud of me for having the surgery and losing the weight. And not mourn to the point that my eating gets out of control. To remember the good times and to move forward not backward.  See group support Does Help! Even this old dog learn a new way to cope with depressing matters.
         I hope everyone has a great weekend.     Teresa M.
