Mother fell in her room at 4 this morning. I had to call for an assisted lift from the firemen. She also fell yesterday afternoon and they had to come out. The falls usually come in threes. So I won't be able to visit Ken anymore at rehab without getting a sitter. He is coming home Tuesday for the home evaluation visit. I hope this means he gets to come home soon. The doctor said he could put some weight on the right foot now and start to use some kind of walker with an underarm support. He can't get into the van yet so his dad will have to pick him up for the visit Tues.

My husband was in a motorcyle wreck last night. He is in hospital in Mobile broken knee, many foot fractures, shoulder chipped.

Hey GP Girls, Hope you all have a lovely Easter. I am gradually getting back to my "normal". I have never considered myself what everyone else thinks of as normal.

Hey Golden Peanut Girls, I am back from Sacramento, CA. My mom had two strokes so I went home to see her and the family. My brother & niece Donna came down from Juneau. I house sat for my sister Linda. She and her DH had a few days out of town for business. Then after my brother and niece left I stayed with mom. My mom is recovering, but it will take some time. When stuff like this happens to someone her age it takes it's toll. My sis said the doctors say they never fully recover, but Mom seems to be holding her own.
You should have seen the faces at the table when Mom said she wanted to give my big brother her suit case. She said "You don't need to buy one mine is almost llike new." Someone said "Wait, You might need it!" She wowed the crowd when she said "The only place I'll be going is in a box!" Priceless...everyone was so shocked that she burst out laughing. I LOVE my mom. She is still The MOM. LOL
PS ~ haven't had a chance to read all your pages. I had a triple whammy on on the time changes. Note to self: Never take a trip when the time is going to change from standard to DL savings!

Sally, thanks for posting the "cards for Ethan" article. I just read it in the paper, and think it is a wonderful way to show support. It breaks my heart to think about this little boy. My DIL called from Houston when she saw the news and realized it was near me. She pointed out that he is just the age of her son, which really brought it home.
All surrounding communtities have been touched by a little boy named Ethan. This little angel, whom his mom calls "Love Bug," will be turning 6 years old next week. The community wants to help in anyway that they can, so I have put together something called "Cards for Ethan." It's something that everyone from all around can come together as a family & do something for this precious child....a child that has touched the hearts of each & everyone of us. We, as a community, have grown to love this child...so many of us have sleepless nights thinking about him, we include Ethan in our prayers every night & every day. He is the first on our minds when we wake in the mornings. Each & everyone of us wish that there was something we could do to help. But we are left praying. Just like Sheriff Olsen advised us to do, "pray." Well, now...with "Cards for Ethan," everyone can come together & send all the love they want...by simply getting a birthday card for Ethan. & with God's will, Ethan will be home with his loving parents on his birthday....we would all love to see that! For anyone that wants to send their love in a small birthday card, simply sign the inside of the card with love & the city and state you are sending it from. These cards can be mailed to or delivered to: Napier Field town hall at 400 Headquarters St. Napier Field, AL. 36303. please send in c/o "Cards for Ethan" or Lt. McDaniel. If it's during the weekend, simply drop in the drop box. I will make it my duty to get each & every one of these cards to Ethan's parents. Let's keep this little boy in our prayers. Let's also pray for his parents, mr. Polland's family, and our men & women of Law Enforcement who's been dedicating their time & love to bring little Ethan home! Much love to you all....from my heart to yours. & much love to Rickey & Marty for helping, & everyone at Rickey Stokes News. God Bless! I think I speak for everyone when I say : "We love you so much Ethan!"
Sincerely, Lt. April McDaniel And Chief Allan Smith

I am pleased that I lost 12 lbs while I was recovering from surgery. Unfortunately it's weight I lost in 2011 and regained in 2012 (I'm still blaming the steroids). So now I'm 3 lbs over my lowest weight and determined to get those off before my birthday in a couple of weeks. Can't wait to put on some of the jeans I had "outgrown" after my cast comes off next week. For now I'm stuck wearing sweatpants and two pairs of dress pants, both black!
Sally, I got the email about Scale Back AL, but after such a miserable record last year I decided to ignore it. Hope you do well on it.
I am still in that range too. I got asked to be on a scale back AL team and we did the first weigh in Tues. So I have 10 weeks to lose 10 pounds and then i would just like to keep it off and go for 10 more next year.

Happy New Year. I hope everyone is doing well. How is your new year going team?
I was on a long plateau last year. I began losing in November and December. I was down to the lowest weight I have been in decades. My PCM pointed out I am still in the BMI obese range. I can read the chart thank you very much. I knew I had a ways to go, but I felt I was making progress.
This month so far not so good. I have gained five pounds. I refuse to change my ticker. I am going to lose the five pounds and keep losing. I am taking things slower and thinking in terms of a healthy body and lifestyle moving slowly toward my goal weight and then a maintenance plan. Non-scale victories are important for self esteem and improving my health is my goal.

Happy New Year everyone! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas and celebrate the new year in grand style (but without a lot of extra calories). I will be partying at Old Providence Chapel in Clayhatchee and invite everyone to join me. It's just friends getting together to enjoy the beautifully restored church (almost finished), have some refreshments, and ring in the new year. We're starting around 10 p.m.
And this is the week I exchange my cast for a lovely walking boot! Yea! Edna
Hi, guys. Sally, I love your profile picture! My granddaughter Haleigh (age 11) passed out flyers in her neighborhood soliciting donations and packed over 50 gifts for troops overseas.
Pat, I always lose weight when my hubby is out of town. Only problem - he won't go anywhere! lol
I'm doing great. My foot is apparently healing because I have almost no pain. Cast comes off Jan 2 and I get the Darth Vadar walking boot. Meantime I'm eating Jenny Craig and I think I've lost about 10 pounds. Hard to get an accurate weight standing on one foot.
I wondered how you were managing to lose so much over Thanksgiving time. I eat less when ken is out of town too but he is only gone for the weekend usually.
Hope everyone has a good Christmas!

Edna ~ It is so great to hear you are feeling better and recovering from your surgery.
Cheryl ~ Hope you are doing okay.
As for me I have been losing weight. I think it is mainly due to DH working in another state. I haven't been eating tons of sausage and potatoes. LOL
Hope everyone is having a good December so far. Sorry I have been AOL lately. I have been busy with Maria most days since my son is going to school and now has another job. Today I got a break because his wife had another no work day. Their plant has had a lot of those days this year since the economy is so bad.
I am putting up a fiber optic tree this year. all the decorations are in the attic and I don't want to mess with it. I have been watching lots of Christmas movies since i don't have anyone to complain about them. My outdoor holiday decor will be the two poinsettias I put out and a Christmas star made from vines to hang on the door.

Woke up to Ginger whining this morning. DH was in the shower and Ginger woke me up to let her out. So I got up at 4:20. I didn't sleep well last night anyway. It has been foggy out. Hope it burns off pretty soon.
We went and had our eyes checked yesterday and my vision has not changed. So we just ordered new lenses to save money. I like my frames and so does DH and we didn't want to buy new frames and have to get new sunglasses clips.
Hope everyone is enjoying the fall weather.

I hear your frustration over the "bump line". Seems like after I lost a few pounds my saddlebags were much more noticeable. Keep at it! Edna

When I first walked outside this morning there seemed to be a touch of fall in the air. Feels like summer now, though! Looking forward to cooler weather. Edna
not much hurricane damage in my neighborhood, hope y'all are doing just as well!

Hey , I have been busy with Maria. She is pulling up on furniture now and crawling around like a little monkey. She crawls on carpet, but pulls her hiney up and looks like a monkey walking on the tile. Trying her best to get into everything. lol
Ginger is doing much better. she seems back to normal. I will be glad when the weather cools down. I want to start walking her again. She has been in the pool doing her water therapy.
I tried to go to bed a little earlier last night. It didn't do me good the tree frogs were having a convention. They were singing (croaking) late into the night. One of them woke me up at six this morning. Little George must be coming in late and he is saying "Honey I'm Home!"
Hope everyone is enjoying their summer despite the heat.

Hey, y'all! Not much activity on the team boards. Guess everyone else is either as busy as I am or, like me, suffering from the summer doldrums. I have been enjoying the rains we've been getting.
Narragansett is the name of a native American tribe from the Rhode Island area, and the name of the large bay. I've always thought it was such a pretty word.
I always wondered where the name Narragansett came from. That is the name of the street my sister lives on, but she lives in California.
Maybe we can all walk soon.

I haven't been active either! Took a trip to Newport, RI, to visit my granddaughter, who is stationed there. I once lived in Narragansett, and it was fun seeing how things had changed in 45 years! Travel is always hard on my quest for better health. Ate way too much, but enjoyed it immensely.
Not sure how much rain we have had. Our rain gauge started overflowing yesterday at 6" (over 2 days) and I know it rained really hard last night. I was out and about yesterday and saw lots of flooding. Talked to a friend in Pensacola and he said they had 20" in one day.
I would like to walk one day - not Thursday - could probably swing it any other day.
Hey Peanuts, Sorry I haven't been very active on the team lately. Life keeps throwing me curve balls and I was never good at sports.
I was going to mow the lawn yesterday and couldn't find a funnel so I could fill the mower with gas. Seems lately the harder I try to do anything the behinder I get. I just gave up on the lawn. DS#1 is supposed to be mowing it every week anyway. I am glad it is raining today and rained yesterday because our grass was burning up.
My DS#2 had a car accident last Friday. Less than a block from our house crossing Rucker Blvd. He wasn't hurt and neither was the guy who hit him. We found out Monday night the insurance company decided to total it. The news just broke his heart since it was his first car. We were thankful he wasn't hurt. He is going to be looking for a car or he may buy mine and I'll get something else. I really hate that his was ruined, but he is safe and that is what matters.
The weather has been so has anyone been walking? have they fixed the park trail yet? If all else fails we should all meet for lunch or coffee.

Mother keeps me busy. She still wants to live in her little apt. which means I have to go over every morning and turn her ac back on. Even @ 8:00, it is too hot for me to do any work. Spent the last 3 weeks spring cleaning here and her place. i'm exhausted!

How is everyone? I've been working in the yard doing things that should have been done in March! Only idiots would be doing this kind of work in this kind of heat. But today will be an indoor day and tomorrow I head to Atlanta to spend the night so that I can catch an early flight out to visit my granddaughter!
we have a Maria too! Just went up north for her first birthday party. She is learning english and Spanish as she grows up.

Hey y'all, Sorry I have been AWOL for so long. Been busy taking care of Ginger and Maria. Ginger's check up with the surgical vet is tomorrow. She is driving us crazy since she thinks she is 100% recovered. I hope the vet says she hasn't done any damage to the work he did. She still limps sometimes. We think that is due to her trying to run and jump. When she gets excited she twirls like the Tasmanian Devil.
Maria is seven months old and she is a joy most of the time. She has her little hissy fits now and then, but babies are allowed to be fussy. I am going to be learning Brazilian Portuguese. They bought her a DVD from a Brazilian TV series titled "XuXa." Pretty soon I'll be able to sing the hokey poky song in a new language. Of course I'll be singing out of tune.

Of course I was too busy to cook, so all the sandwiches and eating out showed up on the scale! Back to it this week.

Hey, guys. I miss everyone. We really need to walk and talk. Looks like we have a nice week ahead of us. Anyone interested in walking Wednesday or Friday?
Hey Everyone, Hope you are having a great week. I am so glad we are in February. I am looking forward to Spring! My daffodils are peeking out of the pot. I failed to plant them in my flower bed last fall.My thyme and mint are coming back but my rosemary died.
We have been walking Ginger twice a day most days. I am still too chicken to take her back to the park. We have trouble with her on our street if she sees another dog. This afternoon I had to cut our walk short because she would not pay attention to my commands.
Edna I read the article on your church renovation in Sunday's paper. It is beautiful. Hope all is going well. I know you are a busy woman!
Sally hope everything is going well for you.
Carolyn thanks for the sweet comment on my page.
I have been out of the loop lately. Life at home has been hectic. I am going to babysit Maria tomorrow. She is getting bigger and can hold her head up now. I took some photos, but I have to figure out how to up load them.
My BL challenge team has been keeping me busy. I have been trying to track all my food and keep up with all the fitness minutes. We are going into week #8. I am at the same weight I was when we started. I'll eventually get back to losing weight one of these days.
to everyone!

If you'll notice your own blog now there is a "Share" bar at the top of the blog. That means if someone likes your blog entry they can "share" on their Facebook wall!! Who wants his/her blog about losing weight to show up on someone else s' facebook wall?
To delete this "Share bar" feature from your blog do this:

Hope the new year is going great for you. I need a walk date -- I had to change my starting weight because I had gained so much. Just want the weather to warm up a bit so that I can enjoy the outdoors.
I hurt my foot on the 20th, today I walked again, but just 10 minutes. Do want to get going again. I like your profile pic CG!

We got home from Texas last night and I've spent much of today trying to catch up with Spark friends. I have really gained weight and so I'm intent on turning that around!
Thanks for opening up a game forum. I will try to post the music game later today!

Well the person who tends to post first seems to know a lot of songs also! I'll try to be up early enough to post it sometimes. (More likely it will be @ 2:00am some night that I can't sleep!)

So do you like the game idea? How about we do it once a week to brighten up Mondays? Every day would be too much on a small team.
Whoever starts it can post the name of the song here and the first line or phrase on huddle wall.

Hey let's play a game! Someone put up the first words of a song on huddle (like i did today) and the next person put the next phrase etc. etc. Let's see how far we get each day! You have to be up early to be the one to choose the song!

Sally, He started out doing hip hop and he and kid Rock are best friends. He was Kid Rock's DJ and toured with him for years. I read an article in the P-nut Festival flyer that says he loves and was influenced by all kinds of music.

I love "Follow Me". What do you call his style? Blues was the closet thing I could think of but that's not really it.

Good Morning, Hope everybody is doing okay. I am tired this morning. Ginger woke me up several times last night. She wanted to go out, but every time we let her out she started barking. I finally shut my door after Patrick took her out the last time. I just wish she would let me
Good to see you back Edna. Uncle Kracker Has two really popular songs that you may have heard. Follow Me and Smile. Here is part of Smile:
"You make me smile like the sun Fall out of bed, sing like a bird Dizzy in my head, spin like a record Crazy on a Sunday night You make me dance like a fool Forget how to breathe Shine like gold, buzz like a bee Just the thought of you can drive me wild Ohh, you make me smile..."

Hi everyone! Just checking in with you guys. I think I might actually go to the Peanut Festival this year. I've been once in 6 years and it's only 3 miles from my house. Hope everyone is doing well! I've been doing the 17 Day Diet now for 34 days. I've lost 10lbs so far. I love it!
FORUM: 
TOPIC: 
I think it is mainly due to DH working in another state. I haven't been eating tons of sausage and potatoes. LOL
I am putting up a fiber optic tree this year. all the decorations are in the attic and I don't want to mess with it. I have been watching lots of Christmas movies since i don't have anyone to complain about them. My outdoor holiday decor will be the two poinsettias I put out and a Christmas star made from vines to hang on the door. 
has anyone been walking? have they fixed the park trail yet? If all else fails we should all meet for lunch or coffee. 
Happy New Year everyone!
