30 days???

Hi all! Just doing a quick check in. Nibs, so sorry about your boss. Have one of those. Hard when they swing from one extreme to the other. That's why I hope this sale goes through. MA, good luck with your new job on monday! Anyway, only have one more day of the work week, then hub and I are off to the windy city. It will be nice to get away. If I don't check in until next tues... not to worry. I think I may leave my laptop behind. Hugs all around! :l:h:l

Nibs, I was so hoping your boss had turned a new leaf. She had been doing so well. No such luck!!!

I got a call today from the owner of my company. She and her husabnd (he is 800 and she is in her late 60's) were BEATEN 2 weeks ago. The guy was trying to steal their car. Broke her husbands shoulder and beat her face very bad. Her husband had to have surgery. Just breaks my heart. Some people are NUTS!

Thursday!

Hey all, just a "quickie" before I leave to give a "talk on nutrition and health" at a local gym..........cool, huh?? I was asked to give a talk today and Mon. night................I am excited about it, still don't know when I start working, but expect them to call me by Mon, as they said 10-14 days is what it takes to do a "background check". I know I will pass that w/ flying colors, never so much as had a ticket(should have, but THANK GOD, never did).

Then the gym and home to work on my painting, worked on it yesterday and it is really turning out well...................

Hope you all are well,we are missing alot of people here................hope they are all ok.:fingers:

Love,:l:h:h

Hello friends.

MA, It is so wonderful, and I mean wonderful, to hear you sounding so happy and full of joy. Your posts bring a smile to my face every morning.

I am just dropping a quick note here today to let everyone here know I am thinking of you.

I will have a diagnosis in a few days and I am just sitting here biding my time and waiting. I know it is probably not the best way to do this but it is all I have the strength for right now.

I love you guys and am glad I can read on MWO and keep myself preoccupied with other things. Thank you for being here.

Love,
Cindi

Good Morning

Just wanted to say a big hello to everyone.

Cowgal, you are going full steam ahead...good for you.

Feeling super good here...taking tai chi 2 times per week (in addition to morning boot camp) and I'm liking it. It's kindof like a meditation in motion. Thinking seriously of training for a 1/2 marathon that will take place in March. I really like to have goals and I want to take full advantage of my alcohol free life.

Onward to work

Be Well All

YOU!!! are full steam ahead Momof3!! Boot camp, Tai Chi................martathon!!

Cinders, glad to hear you are ok still, waiting sucks, to put is bluntly................

The talk was nice and small, I am off to the gym, had to pick up David from school, he has a fever and feels like shit...............the nurse called just as I was heading out to the health club........he just sat in the car and sweated it out.........poor kid. He is going to bed now.:h

Talk to you all later.:h:l

I sure hope that David is feeling better soon Cowgal ... Poor fella. Thanks for your wise words.. yep, I've really avoided her whenever possible. I truely love the vibes I get from your posts !!! You are doing this !!! Be sooo very proud of yourself because we all sure are !!!
Best, have a wonderful time in the windy city.
Luv, my heart goes out to your friends... that is just plain awful what happened to them. There is WAYYYYY toooo much evil in this world. Thank the dear Lord for all the angels among us to balance things out. You all are angels in my eyes. xxx
And Momof3, you absolutely ROCK
Cinders I'm glad to have you here as you add so much compassion... I hope that your diagnosis is good sweetie and that the wait isn't too hard on you... I'm thinking about you.

Well, after work yesterday we all went to Marilyns as it was her and Brendas Birthday... (2 days apart that is) anyhow, I arrived a bit before the others and Marilyn just kinda blurted out "I want you to know that you are really doing awesome".... then I explained that I learn alot better when a person doesn't get impatient etc... I cannot remember exactly but it was really good.. Long story short she said that when she is "in your face" so to speak that she wants me to tell her.. I then said that I will have to learn how to voice my feelings because " I cannot carry that around with me at work"... I was a load off my mind and things today and yesterday were very good.
It also helps to say on the way to work "Dear Lord, if I'm beaten down, please lift me up and carry me"

I also want to share with you all that I'm looking possibly at buying another horse. Milly is terribly lonely and I've found a super quiet road safe horse. She is a registered appoloosa named "Freckles"...
We shall see...
Time for bed, Hugs xxx
I've locked up, hubby has put another log on our fire, so could the last one up catch the light?

Friday!

nibs, I am SOOOOOOO happy you and Marylin are doing better, sometimes a party is what you need to "break the ice" and get along better......................at least she told you to set a "boundary", right? I am happy you are getting another horse for Milly, it is good for them to have a "buddy", that is why I got Nerrisa, when Cocoa's old "buddy", Sundance passed from an accident......good luck whatever you do.

I am having an easy and quiet day, gym, pool to read, putting books on our new"library" we built in our hallway...........then working on my painting of Cocoa and Nerrisa..............will have to get a camera so I can take a pic of it.......................

Talk to you all later, am getting worried about TIT, has anyone talked to her???? We know where everyone else is..................is she up to Baltimore? What about Boots again, I guess she is just busy, I think that is what she said...............we need to stick together, if it is just popping in to say "I am ok, just busy".

lots of love,:l:h:l:h

hi all! still out of town. popped in to pick up a couple of pm's. Everyone have a great week end. The weather is beautiful here. Talked to our friends last night for awhile (parents of the bride) and they were glowing. Sounds like it will be a really lovely and fun celebration. I am off to enjoy the day. You guys do the same! Hugs!

Hi all... I found the guy that teaches qui-gong and tai-chi so I hope to start something next week. Hopefully yoga too. Having problems in AM with arthritis symptoms n hands and knees, though. It's holding me back from the gym, but I really think it's an excuse for some reason. I have a personal trainer I paid but he works in AM. I will call him this weekend and see about getting started again. Maybe he can work out lunchtime. I need some exercise! Very proud of your commitment, MA. I swear I expect you to sprout wings and fly soon!:l

[momof3]

Greeneyes,

Happy to hear that you found someone who does Qi Gong and Tai Chi. They are both very gentle forms of exercise so should be ok for your knees. I have found Tai Chi to be very relaxing and peaceful...not one to sit still and meditate so this is the next best thing for me. Perhaps I will graduate to meditating some day.

Don't know if you are taking anything for your arthritis, but my husband has taken both glucosamine with chondroitin and Sam-e (not at the same time) and both he has found very helpful. I do not know the advantages of taking one over the other although I do know that Same-e helps many folks with depression too. I think it takes about 30 days to see results for arthritis. My neighbor's dog has arthritis and is taking the glucosamine.

NIbs, you sound busy and happy...you go girl

Everyone, have a great weekend. I'm taking my older girls on a trailride on Sunday (each with a friend) for their birthdays that were in August and September. It's supposed to be sunny and in the 70's...perfect for a ride in the country.

Be well

good morning!

Hey Momof3, thanks for reminding me about Tia Chi..............I need to go to the Society here and just "take my first class", that is half the battle for me, just getting my BUTT there! The Qi Gong, doesn't exist here in podunk Tallahassee, I was amazed to find even Tia Chi. I will look in line to see if there are any DVDs or anything I can get, cuz Rhonda advised me to do that too.

I have started using herbs she recommended, and along w/ the antioxidants I started taking w/ this cleanse/supplement program, I am feeling almost 20 years old again..............I think it has alot to do with being free of Al for almost 30 days too!

Off to the gym, then a movie, YEP I am going to see a flick today, I deserve it!

Went to my favorite AA meeting last night, then out to eat(socialize mostly for me, too late for me to eat!)................I CHERISH my Friday nights!!:l

lots of love,:l:h:h
