GOOD AFTERNOON EVERYONE...........

ANOTHER HOT LOUISIANA DAY!!!!!    DH and I went fishing and I got sooo hot.   Drank lots of water and wiped off with a cool washcloth, but finally had to give it up and come home.  Just took a shower and collapsed for a while.  And to top it off, the fish were not biting..............VICKI: Yes,  Joan and I still play Literati.  If you would like to join us, just email me and we can set a game up.  Joan is still having trouble getting on here I think .  She did tell me that she was going out of town last week.  Her SIL is very ill with Liver cancer.  They live in St.Louis.  He is 39 and they have 3 children.  We need to keep them in our prayers.............There is not a lot of news today.  I didn't do any IE unless you can count throwing a fishing line.  ( :  I did ok with my HR foods today;servings were too large though.............Hugs to all.  I may drop by the Chat room at 7 tonight.  Carolyn

Only I have dark hair,LOL.Thats so cute Joyce.We have been out a lot this summer on the motorcycle.In this heat its refreshing.I ride on back I don't drive.Every time we go over a bump we slam our helmets together.Its just like a comedy movie but we have fun.

I've had a great day ...thats so good to be able to say and got in some time walking so I feel 100% better mentally as well as physically.

Hi DIANE,hope you get back on soon .I miss seeing your posts.

Carolyn you are really the fisher woman on this board.Hubby went out in our boat a couple days ago and got quite a few mackeral.They look like a small tuna.We cook them on the BBQ wrapped in foil and put seasoning on the inside.They are good now and then.What we don't want to eat we throw back like you.Sounds dreadfully hot there.Hope you get a cool spell soon.

I was just in the chat room nobody there but me ..I rang the doorbell to,LOL.I'll go back in a few minutes and check it out.Hope you all have a nice evening.

By the way thats plane that was off the runway in Toronto and caught fire was able to get over 300 people off with only 14 slight injuries.What a miracle.It was coming from Paris to Toronto and went to land and there was a heavy thunder and lightning storm and they are not quite sure if it was hit by lightning or not anyhow they all survived it .

Take care of you!Den Mom Carole

Tuesday Evening

Today has been a busy day for me. Spent the morning at home paying bills, doing stuff that needed doing, correspondence, etc. got three phone calls when I tried to eat breakfast, one from Diane, so was very late with getting that out of the way. Afternoon I went around town paying local bills and picked up a delicious salad for a very late lunch. Today was one of those days when I had two meals and one snack. Breakfast was late, lunch was at 5:30 so had only yogurt and fruit tonight at 9:30. Drank lots of water as I was thirsty from all the running around. Tomorrow is diuretic day and I will also make appt. with my doctor.

 

Good thing was, when I woke this morning was calling the chiropractor all sorts of ugly names as my back and left hip were killing me! As I got up, moved around, sat at computer for over an hour, I noticed my back was not hurting at all. It has not hurt all day except when I move just one certain way it will do one of those quick stabbing pains. Doesn't last though is the good news. Was terribly sore last night and this morning but that seems to also have worked out. Will see what tomorrow brings or rather tonight as I sleep. That seems to be when my back gets the most stiff and hurts the worst is when I am laying in bed. My hips hurt from sitting too much except in computer chair.

 

I am whining and rambling so will shut up for now. So good to see Carles and several others back posting. You have been missed. Have a good nights rest and see you tomorrow. Hugs, Sandra

I have found that when I lay down or get up I have to give my back time to adjust to the change...If I lay down and don't stay in one position long enough, my back gives me fits...with my feather bed I have one problem, without I have another...My joints are going to pieces....The heart dr says I am doing fine, the leg is beginning to heal...Almost all the dead tissue is gone and he says it will start filling in pretty quick now...I hope....Hope you are feeling better...MaryB

Prayer Request

Good Morning Dear Friends

 

It is Wednesday, Aug. 3 here in Dallas and I am not sleeping @ 2:50AM Central Standard Time.  Today is the day for my big, big dental procedure and I am scared to death!  I have to be at the dentists office by 7AM and the procedures will be finished around 4 or 5 pm.  So many times in my past I have had really bad experiences with going to the dentist that I have just avoided going at all for the last - ummmm maybe 8 or 10 years!   So there are lots of things wrong.  I chose this new dentist because he does sedated dentristy.  Supposedly I will be sound asleep the whole time.  Tho I rather doubt it!

 

I doubt it because he prescribed a sleeping pill for me tonight and it is absolutely NOT working!  I didn't sleep much last night either......  just have the jitters about getting this work done.  I have seven cracked teeth most of them with cracked fillings also.  I have one hollow tooth with an air gap - whatever the heck that is?? Almost all of my teeth have something wrong with them.  The front top teeth are very crooked and overlap.  They have cavities between the overlapping  parts.  These top front four will be capped and then lastly all my teeth will be whitened.

 

One thing I don't have, amazingly, is gum disease.  I want to get all this over with in one big visit and have one big miserable time of pain and that will be that!''

 

PLEASE pray for me throughout this day.  Pray that the dentist will be able to get me sedated enough that it will seem like nothing is going on and I will not feel anything or know anything all day long!  Pray that I won't be the world's worst patient!  Send happy thoughts my way all day.  I hope that I am well on my way to sanity and able to post by Friday to let you all know how well I did  "hope hope hope hope"......

 

Meanwhile at least my eating will be slowed down quite a bit!  Who knows?  Maybe I'll lose a pound or two the hard way!

 

Yesterday at the diabetes doctor's office my STATS were:  233# (same as this time last year) and my blood sugar was 105.

 

Love to all my WOW friends . . . Julie
