My take on aging is that I will fight it with everything I can..I dye my hair and am now at the gym 2-3 days a week. Speaking of 60 being old NOT, I will be just that ripe old age in June....OMG!

Dottie, what day? I am 53 on the 11th.

Thanks, Zenmeister...
I totally dig the guy. I will tell my supervisor that as soon as I gain the necessary skills, I would be on board with caring for him. He really is lovely. And yeah, I can take charge AND be nice. :h

Nicey - wonderful to see you. :l

Dottie - I so agree with learning new words/things. Sometimes, I just think my brain has fried and that nothing will ever stay in there again. I think you are right on taking the RV to the dealer. It is too hard to do it yourself. My parents RV is still there in their RV garage. That thing has been sitting for so long that I'm sure the gas, etc will have to be drained before they even try to start it.

K9 - how are you doing? Are you hanging in there ok? I know you are in the middle of a (can't think of the word, of course :H) hard time. I hope you are ok and not getting too down. :l

Zen - I really hope that this 'whore moan' cream helps. I have heard really good things about that. I think that everyone thought I had gone crazy a few years ago. (Little did they know that I went crazy in my twenties )

Zen - just saw that they screwed up your cream. SHIT!!!!

Mama- I love you kiddo. Hang in there.

Fen - OH MY GOSH!! Seriously! I can't believe that they put you with that client on Day 2. Are you ok???

I have been considering getting a fitbit, how many of you have it. I know that Fen will kill me with her hiking but on a normal day, it would be interesting.

Kradle - I am sending you so much love & positive energy.

Zen - love your new avatar.

Nora I have a fitbit and love it but it shows me what a slug I am some days...this is my second one. I had the old one plugged in to my laptop and the doggies decided to use it as a chew toy while dh slept....now my new one synches without a cord....much better and lighter too. I am a gadget nut...

I'm sorry that I just keep posting short blurbs. That's all my mind can take. :H:new:

Seriously - I am trying to just get caught up with everyone. I have been in sort of a fog, I guess. The thing is that everything is fine. I just need to remind myself to stay positive. Hubby is up taking care of his Dad and we need to remember what a privilege that is. Just that type of thing - look to the positive instead of the negative.

Hubby told me that on Tuesday night when he was up there, he was so depressed that he searched thru his suitcase to look for love notes from me. (I think I must have stuck 6 of them in there) Well, he didn't find any. So this morning when he woke up, he found 2 of them. It made his day. So, there are a few more for him to find and I'll mail him something right away. Need to look for the positive.

Well - I think I need to look into a fitbit then. I would love to have some friends to link to.

Geez, I'm on my fourth...I lost my last one and my partner gave me hers, as she wasn't using it any longer!

And yeah, I hate those "slug" days.
