Happy Saturday Everyone......What is new?
Good morning everyone....
It is almost 1:00 PM Central time and no one has started the thread. I guess I will....
Not much new with me. I am still fighting this damn sinus/cold I have. I have done nothing but sleep for days. The meds knock me out and that is good. I will be napping again soon.
I hope all is well with everyone. Prayers for our sweet Off Family. Special prayers for Butch and Vickie, Jennifer and some others as well.
Have a peaceful day everyone!!
Lots of love and many hugs to all.....connie d
Hi Connie! I sure hope you start feeling better soon, darlin'.
We are doing okay today. I went and got Benny a little while ago and he's spending the afternoon with us. He and Papaw need haircuts, so I'm going to carry them up to the barbershop here in a minute or two. Butch says he feels well enough to go today. And he and Benny have a haircut tradition: they get their haircut together and then go to Dairy Queen for an ice cream cone. So this is a good bit of normalcy for us today. The only difference is that I'm going along as driver today.
Butch didn't actually run errands with me yesterday. We go in the car to go, but we hadn't gone a mile before he asked me to turn around and go back home. The motion of the car was making him nauseous. So he just took a Zofran for nausea and we're giving it a minute to kick in before we go to the barber shop.
I talked to my Mama this morning and she told me she has lost 20 lbs since spring! 20 lbs??? OMG. She's not big as a minute as it is. She weighs 104 now. I am so concerned about her, but she says she just went to the doctor and had bloodwork and a check up and everything was good. The doctor told her to start drinking Boost and to try and gain back 10 pounds.
(I am big like my Dad's side of the family. Daddy was 6'2" and I'm 5'10", but my mom is 5'2". HER mom was 4'9"!)
Well, my boys need me. I'd better go. Love you all!
Vickie
Hi Vickie.....well I saw the post on Facebook of Benny and Butch getting their hair cuts so I know they made it there okay. I thought Butch looked pretty good considering how he has been feeling. I am sure that haircut and ice cream is about all he can handle today.
Your mom is a tiny little lady. I think she needs to gain a bit of weight. If she gets sick she will not do as well being that small. I will include her in my prayers for your family.
I am feeling so lousy. I came to check in here a bit, then back to bed. Tony is coming over later to bring me more Nyquil. I am out and need it for tonight.
Pam is having a apartment inspection on Tuesday. There are different owners now. I wish her well. The last people didn't care and passed her through. What she will do about that hoarding is beyond me. It is the worst it has ever been. I can't help her, mostly because I am so sick. I couldn't anyway because of all the cat hair, dust and mites.
I hope the rest of your day goes well. Still praying for all of you every day, many times a day!! I love you much!!! 
Lots of love and bunches of hugs....connie d
Hi Carla....thank you...I hope I feel better soon myself. This is a nasty cold/sinuses. I am so out of it!!
I am glad you can skype with your little Vinnie! She misses you I am sure. I don't think she will have all her teeth by the time you see her...LOL!! Last I heard she had one tooth...wow...now four!!! She is growing so fast!! She is just so cute!!
Hope you just relaxed and enjoyed your day!!
Love you...HUGS....connie d
Hi Jennifer......my sleep is messed up too. I went to bed a couple times already tonight....no luck so here I am!! I hope you can get your sleep pattern back as it should be soon.
What in the world is taking them so long to do with your pool? Five weeks is a long time!!
Hope you enjoyed your book and your wine!!!!
Love and hugs.....connie d
Hi Everyone:
Spent a Nothing Day aka Goof Off Day. Had a sleepless night last night, wide awake until 5.30 AM so finished reading a book from our condo party room honour lending library ( no sign out, keep as long as you want). Have 2 books to return. Slept a broken sleep until 3 PM. Amazing! Felt good on awakenibg, but am wondering about how late will be up tonight. When you start shifting sleep and waking hours, it can become petmanent for a while.
My problem is our pool is closed for 4-6 weeks, been 5 weeks, and no end in sight. So dont get physical activity tiredness to send me to sleep. Cant walk around the block, been thinking of getting a Rollator with seat, so can just plop down when tired...but havent bought one yet. Hoping for good quality second hand one so keep looking through online adverts.
Cleaning guy not coming tomorrow, may go see a movie instead...if not will read a book on balcony in afternoon shade. Plus glass of wine or two....easy does it.
Hugs Everyone,Jennifer
