Blue Notes

Can’t believe they kept it/ Can’t believe it’s there!/ Blue Notes has survived the “CUT”/ And been ARCHIVED right here!/ We turned our back for just awhile/ Because we could not get on-line/ And when we came back “home” to check.../ Blue Notes was still just fine!!!/

There have been a lot of changes/ Some of them will take time/ So let’s all make the best of it/ When we meet on-line/ Some of us have lost the weight/ Others have pounds to go/ But every day in every way/ Let’s help each other grow/

We write these little rhymes TO YOU/ To make BOTH of our days brighter!!!/ We hope that this rhyme from Blue/ Has make your burden lighter!

HI FRIENDS, WELL HERE I AM AGAIN.

A NRW NAMEL, BUT THE SAME BEV. I HAVE BEEN SO BUSY THE PAST WEEK. I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON EATING RIGHT, BUT DO NOT KNOW IF I HAVE LOST WEIGHT. I HAVE NOT GOTTEN ENOUGHT EI. I TOOK CARE OF MY 2 OLDEST G/S IN MALIBU. EACH DAY IT WAS 3 HRS AT THE BEACH AND 1 TO 2 HRS AT THE HIGH SCHOOL POOL. BY 6PM I WAS DEAD AND THE BOYS WERE EXHAUSTED. THEY HAD A GREAT TIME IH THE OCEAN AND THE POOL. THE GOT LOTS OF EI. I NEED BE MORE CONSISTANT COMING HERE AND GETTING EI. I AM STILL TRYING TO MOVE IN, WHICH SEEMS TO BE A NONE ENDING JOB, THE MORE I DO THE MORE THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE. I KNOW THAT I AM NOT DOING ENOUGH WLC TO MY SATISFACTION. I KNOW WHAT TO DO, BUT DOING IT ON A CONSISTANT BASIS SEEMS TO BE DIFFICULT FOR ME. I AM ALSO TRYING TO TRAIN THE PUPPY TO POTTY OUTSIDE. SHE HAS GOT IT TOGETHER IN MALIBU, BUT HERE IN THE NEW HOUSE SHE WON'T GO OUTSIDE TO GO POTTY. HER NAME IS MOLLY. SHE IS SMART, CUTE AND HAS A MIND OF HER OWN. SHE IS 8 WEEKS TODAY. I WILL BE GLAD WHEN SHE IS NO LONGER A PUPPY. I WANT TO GIVE MYSELF TIME HERE ON THE BOARD WITH ALL OF YOU. I WISJ LIFE WOULD NOT GET IN THE WAY. I AM SO GLAD YOU ARE STILL HERE. EVEN THOUGH I HAVE BEEN GONE, I HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN YOU. I THINK ABOUT YOU OFTEN AND MISS BEING HERE. BETWEEN GETTING THE MALIBU HOUSE READY FOR SALE, GETTTING WHAT I AM TAKING PACKED, UNPACKING HERE AT THE NEW HOUSE AND ORGANIZING WHERE THINGS WILL GO., THE PUPPY, MY DD AND G/D, FINDING TIME TO ENJOY COMING HERE ENDS UP BEING PUSHED OUT. FOR THIS I AM VERY SAD ABOUT. I NEED TO COME HERE. I AM GOING TO GO TO BIG BEAR ON THURS., I WILL HAVE TIME TO BE HERE TO READ, POST AND BE SUPPORTIVE TO YOU. I ALSO WANT TO GET BACK ON TRACK WITH WLC. LOL BEV

HI EVERYBUDDY!!!!

I am still around. But since I had the modem replaced on the computer for the second time in a month from lightning strikes; now when we get an incoming phone call, it no longer knocks me offline. So after finding out the doctor was trying to reach us and could not get through, I figured that I had better stay off the computer until late at night. I guess it is the difference in the modems. I have not been able to figure out a way to set it to the way it was before. My mother is still not doing good and between housework, yardwork, grandchild, dog, cats, and her----I don't have much time left. My mother has been confined to the bed for two months now. Most days she is completely confused about everything and everyone except for a few short minutes. I do not know if she is going to get any better. She still has the UTI and they started another round of antibiotics today.  I have completely given up trying to lose weight lately, but I am beginning to feel the urge to return to the program. I have been eating whatever I wanted and whenever I wanted. But I have not totally blown everything. Ice cream has been my downfall.  But luckily for me I have not really returned to all of my bad habits. I do not eat nearly as much or as often as I used to. It has been so hot. We bought a 16 foot above ground vinyl pool when they went on sale at the end of the season. But it has rained every day since we put it up. I had planned on trying to get into the pool too using the Hoya lift, but so far I have not attempted it. Hope everyone is doing ok, but I see from the few messages that I have abe to read that there are many still struggling. Love and hugs to you all!

DEAREST KAREN, I READ YOU POST FROM

SUNDAY. IT HIT ME HARD THAT YOU ARE HAVING A DIFFICULT TIME. YOU HAVE HAD SO MUCH TO DEAL WITH, MORE THAN YOUR SHARE., DO NOT BE HARD ON YOURSELF. WE WHO HAVE NOT HAD YOUR STRUGGLES COMPLAIN WHEN WE HAVE NOTHING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT WHEN WE KNOW YOUR STORY. YOUR ARE NEVER FAR FROM MY THOUGHTS EVEN WHEN I HAVEN'T BEEN ON THE BOARFD FOR AWHILE. YOU HAVE HELPED ME SO MANY TIMES AS WELL AS SO MANY OTHERS. YOU ARE CORRECT THAT FINDING SOMETHING THAT GIVES YOU THE PLEASURE THE EATING DOES IS DIFFICULT. I AM NOT SURE WHAT MY REASONS ARE FOR FALLING OFF TRACK. I THINK IT IS MORE THAT I GET DISCOURAGRED AND MOST IMPORTANT I HATE BEING HUNGRY. I TOO AM LOOKING FOR THE KEY TO UNDERSTANDING MYSELF. I KNOW THAT YOU HAVE MUCH TO DEAL WITH, I WISH WEIGHT WAS NOT ADDED TO YOUR PLATE. I WILL SEND GOOD THOUGHTS, LOVE AND STRENGTH YOUR WAY. I HOPE LIFE WILL GIVE YOU SOME MNEEDED PEACE. YOUR STRENGTH IS IN GIVING TO OTHER, YOUR WEAKNESS IS IN NOT GIVING TO YOURSELF. YOUR PLATE IS FULL, BUT YOUR HEART IS FULLER. PERHAPS GIVING TO YOURSELF, LOVING YOURSELF AND FINDING PLEASURE IN GIVING TO YOURSELF WOULD HELP YOU TO NOT NEED FOOD. YOU DESERVE EMOTIONAL PLEASURE, JUST NOT OVER EATING. I KNOW IT IS EASY TO SAY, BUT NOT EASY TO DO. I KNOW IF YOU FIND THAT EMOTIONAL PLEASURE YOU WILL RECEEIVE NURTURING THAT YOU NEED AND DESIRE, THEN FOOD WILL NOT BE YOUR COMFORT. I WISH I COULD GIVE YOU THAT EMOTIONAL PLEASURE. I BELIEVE FINDING WHAT GIVES YOU EMOTIONAL PLEASURE YOU WILL SOLVE SOME OF YOIUR DELEMA, GIVE TO YOURSELF, YOU DESERVE THIS. LOL BEV

Good Morning ladies! 

  

  

I am still out here!lol 

  

I saw the doctor yesterday for scheduled apt.received another acupuncture treatments,including the one to try and help my sleeping.The doctor seemed pleased to hear I had received some relief from last treatment even though it was short lived.Means my body was able to receive some benefit from that treatment. 

  

  

I can say I am feeling better right now,then I was before I saw the doctor.So I'm happy! 

Youngest daughter started school yesterday--her last year.Today she turns 18. 

son begins his job today--went in at 4am.He was excited and nervous this morning--which is to be expected.We sat and talked awhile before he left.I made sure he knew just how proud I am of him. 

  

I haven't read the back posts yet but I will. 

coffee time for dh and I.So I will be back in a bit. 

  

  

Vickie
