What's on your Thursday Menu?
Good Morning Queen JB and Menuers,
JB good decision to not waste their time. I'm sure Kelly can tell you a few stories about how her time was wasted. I think I remember her saying she had a hire that didn't show up on the first day. I am not a fan of Amazon drivers. They are entitled to where they park, and block traffic and it drives me crazy. On the other had Rudy loves him a good Amazon driver. The good ones carry dog treats.
So, I lost another friend today. In August of 2017 I went to Ocean City and my 2 longtime friends who were both SMO went down with us. Amy couldn't even get off the porch of the Condo to see the beach, and Linda could barely get around on her walker. We did take her to the boardwalk one evening but she couldn't even go 1 block. That got my wheels turning and that is my NOT ME moment. I was on the same path as them. Both had uncontrolled diabetes, and each had amputations from the disease. Not full foot but partial. My next Doctors check-up showed my A1C at 5.9 and I told the doctor I do not want to live with diabetes, and he told me the only way to avoid it is to get healthy. In 2015 I was 1 week away from surgery and chickened out. This was the nail in the coffin I either do it now or live the life they were. I found a clinic that the staff was compassionate, and I felt relief meeting others who had had the surgery. First appointment was October 9, 2017 and was in surgery On December 11. If Linda and Amy were not in my life, I never would have done this. 6 years later they have both passed and I owe my new way of living to them. They saved my life. Godspeed.
QOTD: On January 29,2022 I tried to Cross Country and I fell and ripped my muscle and tendon from my arm resulting in Sholder surgery on March 16. Yup I am done never again.

So sorry to hear about your friend. We're getting to that age now. I've googled several of my childhood and teenage years friends over the past couple of years and have come across several obituaries. I'm starting to feel glad I'm still alive...

Good Morning and Happy Friday-Eve! I think it's good that you're making the best decisions for yourself. I'm glad nobody was breaking into your car! Tonight I think I have the last concert of the year. It's local this time, we are going to Jonas Brothers. The dealership has a suite at the center and Em wanted to go so I requested tickets (they are offered as first come/first serve to employees if the family isn't using them) so it'll be a casual fun evening with her and a two of her friends.
QOTD: I have never tried snow skiing and water skiing and I didn't get along when I tried when I was younger.
