Comments

False, i do have a bottle of calcium but just have trouble taking it
Candie, you mix the butter and sugar until it is fluffy, then add in one egg at a time, then fold in the flour by hand, then add the sprite. Bake at 350 for 35 to 40 minutes
The next person has been scuba diving
-
No, never, but my dad went para-sailing when he was 70 years old!
The next person has a dog that's like a child to them
-
Correct, his name is Lucky, he is a miniature poodle
Next person has a cat
-
False - don't have any cats at the present time tho I've certainly had some great ones.
Spar: I had trouble with calcium pills but I can do the Viactiv Chews with no issues. I am also taking Vit D everyday to help all the calcium I take in get absorbed.
Candie: Thanks for the prayers....all are appreciated. I know not everyone believes but I've seen the power of prayer and it can be awesome.
Bumped up workout at the gym and started new eating style - no big meals after late lunch. I'll have to close my eyes when you gals talk about those wonderful cakes and baked bries and jelly beans.
The next person has bought a canvas shopping bag and is doing her part to stop using plastic or paper bags.
-
True, for small "quicky" trips. I'd need about 15-20 for mass groceries...sounds like the weight I must loose. Guess I'll do both one bag/pound at a time!
Guggerty - I'll also say an extra prayer for your dear friend Marge. May her tumor be benign, benign, benign!
Once again I am much too far behind to catch up. Now, that too sounds like trying to follow My3 and Luv's fastwalks! lol I'm a huffin' and a puffin", but by george I'll get there!
I just had some major dental work done yesterday (Ouch!) and after 2 extractions and several hours of debriding, I feel and look like MissS's silly pup! Missing teeth and swollen cheeks aside, I'm still giggling at the photo...or is it the mirror?? lol
Still holding "safe" thoughts and sending heartfelt prayers to all my breast friends in the midwest and abroad suffering from these unforgiving storms.
The next person has conversations with their pets.
-
True, Just got 2 puppies around Christmas. Abby is a dachshund w/a little Jack russell, I call her little miss attitude. The other is Minnie a Yorke jack russell mix she is the sensitive one such a sweetie. They are there for a cuddle when you need it. Some how they seem to know!
The next person is really short (not a midget). I'm 4 ft. 9in.~ My boys think it's COOL that There MOM could play in Little People games!
-
I am 5'2", everyone tells me thats short
I do talk to all my pets even the duck
I have several cats. Have not bought a canvas grocery bag yet but do a lot of green things and also recycle the plastic bags
The next person collects sea glass
-
Nope, but I do collect glass sea creatures! DH gave me a seahorse before my bilateral!
I talk to the cat next door, and to the dogs across the street. I also talk to my plants, but they don't answer back!
I'm 5'4", so not short, although my grandmother was 4'11"--her favorite phrase was "power has no correlation to height!"
The next person is starting a new hobby this summer.
-
I recycle the plastic bags, we use them for taking stuff to outings, but I also use them as "poop bags", after I scoop the cat litter, I put it in these plastic bags, and then twice a week, the bags go in the trash!
yes, I have TWO cats, and they are just wonderful! They got me through chemo! Now they are back to being 'aloof', but during chemo, Thor would sleep with me at night, and even Spike, too.
takingcare, of course I have conversations with my pets! They are the only ones who listen sometimes!
I'm short...I'm 5'2"... no to sea glass, what is that?
No new hobbies, well, I did start making beaded jewelry... I took a class at Michaels, and I bought some supplies to get started, but I haven't really made anything yet, except for the projects I made during my class.
The next person is going to have to switch pain relievers. I will, because the IBuprofin makes me break out in HUGE BRUISES all over my legs! What can I take that won't do this, but will be an excellent pain reliever?? I have tried Advil but it doesn't help with pain...must be a placebo. The same with Tylenol. . any ideas?
-
false on switching pain relievers. Harley, what about naproxen? It works good. Sea glass is glass that has been in the ocean so long that the sand has smoothed it all out. Comes in all colors and I do collect it.
I do have new hobbies, sewing and latch hooking rugs.
Next person has got the next coming weekend already planned
-
False
The next person is gorgeous
-
Spar2, what is the brand name of Naproxen? There are SO many, I get them all mixed up. I don't like the idea of taking Aleve, since you can't take any more pain meds. ALL day... the pain would come back, but I wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
no plans this weekend.
False... it has been 8 months since chemo was over, and my hair is STILL just TWO inches long! It sticks out all over, so I kind of look like Bozo. It is too short to even try to style it, or pull it back off my forehead, so I just look all disheveled, all the time!
-
Harley ~ You many not 'feel' it but you are!
Lets see...I am 5'4
JulZ ~My puppy is called 'Minnie' as well...due to her large ears and size...she is a very good listener! LOL...
TC ~ oh, you poor thing...and having that 'image' of the dog was too funny!!
Gug ~ Okay, we'll try to refrain from the FATTENING stuff...besides TC is puffin to keep up...LOL...I walked yesterday..but not a fast one my legs hurt.
The next person has healthy ideas on munchies...
1 -Chocolate graham cracker
spoon Jet Puff marshmallow cream
a little Hershey's syrup
place in freezer
( 1 Weight Watcher point!!!)
-
The aleve and naproxen is all basically the same. Will the dr. order you something better for pain? such as tramadol?
I do have some healthy ideas on munchies but prefer the fattening unhealthy snacks like snickers, ice cream, cake. No wonder i am fat. One healthy snack is to peel a banana, dip it in strawberry preserves, then crunched nuts and freeze it.
the next person has had botox or lip enhancement done.
-
False, no enhancements done here
Spar, I like that healthy snack. Let's see, I have a banana,blackberry preserves and some nuts...yummy...gonna make it when I get home from work and have it for my night time snack..thanks.
The next person has been feeling down lately...I have.

the next person is going to start a new healthier diet tomorrow
-
Sure - after I see the family doc tomorrow! I'll cheat!
!LOL! I try to eat healthy now due to heart issues, but one can always improve!False ~ Luv, can't go for a walk, came home a little while ago to a baby skunk walking around our yard!
! Had to quietly take dogs out front door. The skunk went under the deck that goes around the back of house to our back door! I hope I can walk out to my car to go to work tonight,w/out being sprayed!!LOL!Spar ~ True to blood pressure meds x2. False to parents living. I lost mom when I was 26 & my dad when I was 33. I'm an orphan!

Edit...I knew that was coming! lol True, a very, very blessed Nana (grandma) of a six year old Godsend!
Well, true sort of to the healthier diet. Since my dental work Monday, I think I've lost a few...so that's healthier right???? lol
I ditto everything Luv said except for the living parents...only my mom, but want to add a group (((((HUG)))))). I think we've all had a rough week and just need to unwind and regroup!
Yes Spar! Yard work more than accounts for excercise. You most likely burned more calories than all of us put together! Good for you!

Harley, you can talk to me and my beloved 4-legged "listeners" anytime!
The next person cries at graduations. I do, and I don't even have a graduate this year!
-
False, but I think I cry at everything else.
I have beeen sick since last Thursday! It started with a sore throat thingie... all upper respiratory. I called off work Friday, slept Saturday and felt lots better on Sunday. By Monday night at work, I was sick again. I ended up leaving early tonight and I'm getting myself to the doctor in the morning. I think I have strep throat. My throat is so swollen I can barely swallow and it feels like someone is dragging razor blades across it. YUCK! I need antibiotics!
The next person likes disco!
-

The next person is sitting in an office, and wishing she could get out to enjoy the weather!
