Hi gang. Nothing really exciting going on here. Just a nice routine. And it's warmed up a little.

I hope your mom gets better soon LG. Dealing with family can make a bad situation worse.

QOTD: I don't mind the actual flying at all. But the leg room for me is just awful. I really just don't care for all the getting to and from the airport stuff.

Sorry, no pictures. I'm boring.

QOTD- I don't hate flying, I just consider it a necessity. I always have noise cancelling headphones and books on my tablet to read. When I moved to Maui I had to come home to Oregon and pick up my cat and turned around and flew back the next day. That was a long weekend and I wouldn't care to repeat it. My last flight was to come home from Maui. No flights in my future.

The rain is here and they are still talking about a chance of snow next week. Portland pretty much shuts down when it snows. Too many hills and too many stupid drivers.

Have a great day everyone!

Good morning, everybody!

I'm sitting outside, between classes, and enjoying some sunshine. I will be here about 2 more hours before I leave for the airport. The trip has been good except for a ringing in my right ear. I have to get that checked out when I get home.

On the plan for this weekend is CrossFit, a few errands (mostly online except a haircut) and our towns ice fishing tournament is tomorrow. My older son and I are signed up, but it's been warm and rainy in Chicago, so I don't know if it will be canceled.

I am also excited to review the houses that Marilyn toured and see if we want to make any offers.

QOTD: I have flown a lot. Statistically it's much safer than driving, but it only takes a bit of turbulence for me to forget about that. Mainly it's just a long day.

Breakfast: Ham and eggs

Lunch: Pizza

Dinner: Steak

Have a great day, all!

I am leaving for Vegas 2/9 and hope my trip is as fun as yours looked. Some of our plans are to eat at Gordon Ramsey's Hells Kitchen, a helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon with a landing in the canyon and a Champaine lunch on the ground, a SUV trip to Hoover Dam and Lake Mead, and a few shows.

I used to fly four times a week and did that for several years. I get on a plane, get situated an usually fall asleep during the flight. I do not want to be woken up for food or snacks. I do put some crackers in my purse in case I wake up hungry.

My favorite trips are when the leaves are turning over Pennsylvania in the autumn. The colors are fantastic in the hills and mountains. Millions of people fly safely everyday. When there is plane crash, people get scared, but it is really extremely rare.

I do feel bad for the people in the latest crash and do not think they will ever know what really happened that night.

It is up to 40 and the snow is melting. I can see the ground for the first time in about a month. I know Spring is still a ways from here, but it gives us hope.

Good morning all and Happy Friday,

LadyG- I have come to accept that text messages are the worst way to communicate about anything that can't be answered with a 5 word answer. I have misunderstood and lost relationships over erroneous meanings taken from texts.

It's time for the weekend. Yay yay yay.

My treatment yesterday went well. However, I'm going to tell my aide not to pick me up anymore. I let her know that treatment was intense so I'll just listen to my headphones for the ride. She kept trying to talk when I asked to be left alone to listen to music. It wouldn't be a big deal but the EsKetamine treatment messes with the brain thoughts-> mouth messages connection andi can't express complete thoughts sometimes. It becomes very overwhelming for me.

QOTD- I don't like to fly but accept that it's necessary if I wanted to travel in a shorter amount of time than by ground. I used to get very nervous take off and landing and would close my eyes the whole time. Now, it's not a not deal.

Steps: 7124

B: Dannon Light and Fit Coconut Yogurt.

L: Salad with rotisserie chicken, mandarins, a crumbled piece of crumbled bacon, and slivered almonds.

D: dinner out somewhere with a couple really old friends. They are not old but the friendship is.

S: 2 dove heart shaped chocolates.
