Topic : What's Working In My WLC

I had a great day.  I did not get my ie in for today.  My 4 year old is really having a rough time.  We watched lots of cartoons today and played games.  It is so hard because he is right handed and that is the shoulder and side that he hurt. 

I did get my meals and snack in today though. 

Val - good luck on tuesday, and you are truly a great friend.   

Barbara - I didn't make it to swimming at all this week.  I am aching for it though.  It is so fun and refreshing that it feels like a sin to call it exercise.  I think that exercise should be that though, fun and energizing. 

Jackie - I got the post cards, thanks I really appreciate it.  How was your trip to New York?  Have you reached goal yet?  I know you were just a few away. 

Karen - how was the dr. appt? 

Connie - I am like you I like to treat guests like royalty.  I love to show off my cooking and city when people come. 

got to go 

see ya tomorrow,

Val thanks for the update on Niki, I'm sure she has a good reason for being gone, but we all miss her alot.  I for one just didn't want to lose touch with her.  In the meantime, I'll be praying for you that Tuesday's chemo goes good.  Hope to see you here again. 

Alice, wow, I'm so impressed with the ie you do in that pool.  I really love to go to the pool, it's so relaxing.  And we get a good workout without any pain, but the next day I can sure feel it :) 

Christie, your poor son, how long will he take to recuperate with that shoulder?  I hate when the little ones are hurt.  Oh, you've got to try to get to your water aerobics, I know come October I'll be missing it again.  I wish I could start going in May or June, but it was mid August before we got started this year. 

Jackie, it's so good to see you here.  I don't know what's wrong with your messages.  Have you contacted Dr.Phil's technical support to help you out with it.  I see alot of people are having problems, look at all the problems Alice had but she's gotten it straightened out.  I kind of like the new board, maybe because it's been a challenge, but then again I didn't have the problems some have had.  I do miss my animation though. 

I too am missing some of our members, Trish, Lisa, karen, Bren, Teresa, Bluesstar, Anna Marie, Linda, and many more and of course Niki. 

take care, 

ttfn Love Barbara 

Hi friend!  My appointment went good.  I have to wait about 2 weeks for results of blood work, but my blood pressure was down which is good.\ 

Hugs, 

Karen 

Good morning. 

My boy will take 5 weeks to heal.  Last night was rough.  I am definitely tired now.  I am feeling the effects of no IE for a few days.  My body is actually craving it.  I know it sounds like excusses but it has been really difficult to get it in since my boy got hurt.  He takes 24 hr care right at his side. My dh has got to get off earlier today, I need a break. 

Karen - I hate the waiting game for tests.  I am so glad to hear that your blood pressure is down. 

Jackie - I had this thought last night.  When the new boards started again, I too was having difficulty.  I couldn't even do anything.  I just opened a new account.  I did have to go to yahoo and open a free email account because it said that my email address could not be used twice.  Just a thought.  Try from scratch. 

Barbara - what do you do in the winter time for IE? 

Have a great day today.  I am going shopping for fresh veggie's and fruit (if my boy is up to it today).

I do remember Niki saying she did not like the new boards.  I just hope she is ok. 

Hugs, 

Karen 

ps - Glad to see you here!! 

Hi friend.  The hardest thing for me was not drinking my coffee.  The first thing I do when I get up is pour me a cup.  I fixed dh's thermos, and it was miserable.  I fixed mine, and left it in my van, so as soon as I got out of the dr office I drank it. 

Hugs, 

Karen 

Where is Teresa??? 

Karen 

Update on Teresa for you... 

Teresa has not been on the new boards since they came up.  She has been very busy with work and in addition her Mother and BIL have both been ill.  On her days off she is running around and doing for family right now.   

I receive an email from her on occasion and she is not gaining any weight, but not concentrating on losing at this point because everything is in such chaos.  I'm hoping that her life will settle into a more peaceful routine soon and she will return to the boards. 

Hugs, 

Sharon
