What's on Your (photo) Friday Menu, RNYers?

I was reading (lurking) last summer and always loved hearing about your swim exercise and guests coming & going all the time. The picture of that pool is a little slice of heaven. Wonderful! Hope your surgery soreness is going away.  Have a great weekend. When does your pool open for the season?  -monica

Hi Monica! I like to have my pool ready by Memorial Day weekend....Don't want to miss out on the possibility of a warm sunny weekend and not be able to swim. The season is too short in NY.... I do call it "my little bit of Paradise"... and I love to share :)

Such lovely pics, you tell me where and when the pool party is and I will be there! Keep smiling beautiful!

Good morning everyone! No outside pics of course because just had surgery 10 days ago. Feeling pretty good; just tender in the stomach area. Down a little over 37 Lbs. since highest weight and a little over 10 lbs since surgery. Very happy about that!

QOTD: We have a generator we can connect to our electrical box for power when the power goes out. Just for minimum power such as fridge, lights downstairs and some outlets. We only start it though if we think the power loss is going to last several hours. Otherwise, we have flashlights and candles strategically placed throughout the house. Also have a supply of of canned goods, both store bought and home canned. No looters allowed here...we are packing and ready for any situation, lol.

B: 3 oz. Low fat yogurt w/ 1/2 scoop protein powder

L: Premeir protein shake

D: 2 oz. SF pudding w/ 1/2 scoop protein powder

Always get my 64 oz. of water in.

Hi all. I am trying to get this post in before I go to the clinic for a B12 shot, and then to work. It is going to be a glorious 90 degrees today.  I am trying to figure out a way to be outside to enjoy it, but work keeps getting in the way.  Darned work.

QOTD: I have a ton of candles all over my house, and a gas fireplace. So when the power goes our (a rare occurrence in the winter), I turn on the fire and light all of the candles. My house looks like an 80's Madonna video.  Or a satanic cult meeting.

the picture I'm posting is from a zip lining trip when I was in Hawaii. I've posted it before, so not very interesting.  It still cracks me up at how short I look.  A novel experience since I am 5'7".

Time sine surgery:18 months

B: Egg Beaters, mozzarella, bacon and porcini mushroom omelette 

S: Ellenos Salted Caramel Greek Yogurt

L:  3 oz rib eye

S: Turkey pepperoni stick

D:  4 oz chicken breast

Have a great day!

LMAO @ 80s Madonna video!

I have an overwhelming urge to come to your house during a blackout and belt out Like a Prayer.

Hi MA.  I cannot recall if you posted for your doppleganger on JB's (aka, Liz Taylor) weekend thread. But I have to ask how often you get this one:  Deirdre Lovejoy.  Now, I didn't know her name, so I had to go look on IMDB. I knew her from The Wire (asst state atty), but she's been on a million things.  Not that anyone was talking twins, but your photos ... the resemblance is striking.  Have a fantastic weekend!  -monica

OMG MA I love this pic!  You look like a teenager!! And since you are so tall, are your friends all 6'5" and higher, whoa that's a tall group!!!

Ok pic on the bottom was last Sat OUTSIDE the cheesecake factory. Pic on top was taken last april, so just over a year ago outside work in Dayton (was there for the week).

QOTD- read/play on tablet mindless games, or sleep

This weekends plans are Dr apt with hematologist this afternoon where he will check my iron levels. Hopefully they are fine, and then an eye appointment where I get to pick out new glasses.

Tomorrow I'm seeing a friend I've known since middle school and visiting with mom before hand. If I can squeeze it in I will stop by and see my dad but no promises there.

Sunday I have no plans other than hopefully we are going to wrap up the deck project so we can ACTUALLY use it! It has been a real nightmare.
