One Step at a Time - October 2014

[NoraC]

Hello everyone......I almost pulled a Nora this morning too. :egad: LMAO

Hubby does know all about the site, just sometimes it's hard to be on here & try to type while he's sitting there talking to me or looking over at the computer. He's not trying to spy or anything. But, when we're both sitting on the bed, he can see the screen and I don't feel as comfortable 'talking' to you all.

Ok - got to get back to work. xxxx

Morning all.
sun yes I can see the results on line and from what I understand heart is good and nothing going on but how would the doc know I can see it or even understand it. I worked in the medical field for many years and know more than the average bear but still she should have called. She is toast after the next appointment and I plan to tell her what I think.
pauly yes the deformed carrots were yummy. Had some in my salad and may juice some of the others.
mama garden can be therapeutic...or NOT....but I sure like eating the fresh veggies.
Off to see the investment guy to see how much we lost lately....I cant even open the statements....but nothing I can do about it...
Back later.

Good morning all!
Glad to see everyone is doing well, with all this Fitbit nonsense and all. Does sitting on the couch watching Netflix get you any points? If so, I will definitely be the winner. LOL So Mama, you are not loving "Ove"? I liked it, but I wouldn't say it's my favorite book ever. I'm now reading one called "Spooner". I got it at the Library book sale last weekend. So Sierra talked to her therapist yesterday (she REALLY likes this one) and the therapist thinks it would be a good idea for her to go to her dads for a while. There are just so many details to work out...like her therapy appointments, and oh yeah...school! LOL We'll see what happens, it won't be for another month or two anyway. And I don't plan on moving. I am too happy in my house and even though it's a financial burden at times, I don't need to throw in being in a house I don't like on top of everything else! I do plan on rearranging the furniture again though (you know how I get...LOL).
So 'Tucky is on her way out huh? When I was pregnant I got fired WHILE I was on maternity leave and you better believe I sued the pants off of them. I'm glad you've been keeping a file on her for when she does return though. Mama - Are you watching the Walking Dead? I finished it, and now I'm on to a new show called "Reign", it's about Mary Queen of Scotland that married the King of England. Not nearly as raunchy as the Tudors, but still a good show. I am eagerly awaiting Sons of Anarchy to come back to Netflix!!!
Well it's Thursday and I didn't pull a "Nora" this morning although most days I feel like it. LOL
Will check in later. Thank you ALL for checking on me!!! Love's you guys!!! :heartbeat:

[mama bear]

too funny K9...I just watched "Reign"...it was good, especially if you are a teenage female
we can have a sofa sitting Netflix competition...maybe Fenny or someone could invent a way to keep points.....we can call it a FatBit instead of a FitBit:congratulatory:
I am watching the latest season of "The Walking Dead" on Netlfix....I think it's a year behind.
I can only imagine the details of "moving" Sierra......I like Fenny's (?) idea of sharing her....
I know you were terminated during a maternity leave and believe me, I remember it. I have good legal counsel, an HR Dept and my boss is VERY involved, so all should go well.....it's just a matter of when and how.
I have grapes, blueberries and pears at the lake, Dots. The pears were HORIIBLE this summer. I cannot plant anything that needs constant tending, as we are only there every few weeks. Maybe when I retire.
Nora..what are YOU reading?? I know what you mean...it's hard to really talk when our hubbies are around!

[mama bear]

Niner - have you watched "Games of Thrones"? I can't remember....

[fennel]

I am laughing my ass off about the "fatbit"! Technically, just by breathing you would burn a few calories, lol!

Niner, I am with you about staying put...moving is a massive stressor.

Nora, I know what you mean. Occasionally, Mrs. Fen will sit next to me on the couch when I am posting and glance over, and it definitely puts a damper on things.

Dottie, that sucks about your doc. I don't blame you for giving her the "heave-ho" after your next appointment.

[Dottie Belle]

The doctor finally called at noon today...I had one foot out the door. She apologized profusely. Said she had reviewed and sent word to someone on her staff to call me...but they did not. Told her that waiting a week was not acceptable and that I had called AND sent emails stating I had not heard back...so again she apologized and said she would see what happened.
So as I read heart is OK fine...YEA!!

[paulywogg]

Haha "fatbit",glad your ticker is fine Dots,slooow at work,i'm tired and frustrated from sitting around all day,but whatever,Kell went to a hoity-toity salon for an interview today,she said the manager was rude and just gave the"well were still looking at applications"b.s,bleh f that place,i could never cut upscale,i'd have nothing in common with those people and tbh don't want to,i told her just keep looking but stay put for now,sounds like everyone is doing good,off for my afternoonsoda

[Frequent Traveler]

Hi gang,
All is good, 2nd week at new job has required me to be a student and get training... I dislike school. :=)
Love being home and going to work like a normal person, health is getting back on track. BP is back to normal and starting Monday its back to the ugly word called exercise - I know I know... it for my good.
GF issue is what it is... we remain in contact but not like it used to be, Oh well
K9 great so see you post again, and to all my other great friends I will catch up more on all the posts this weekend.
XXOOXX

[K9Lover]

Mama - I haven't watched Game of Thrones...is that on Netflix? And what's that other one all the teeny-boppers love...oh yeah, The Hunger Games...haven't seen that either. I really wish Downton Abbey was on Netflix...I may have to just rent it from the library!

[paulywogg]

Good to see you FT,glad your health is improving even just good old walking will be some good exercise

[mama bear]

no...Game of Thrones is not on Netflix....I read all five of the books....they are incredible...by George R.R. Martin. My sons go a bootleg copy of season One and Two and I bought Season Three. It's SO good
I just burned the shit out of my hand cooking...at least it wasn't a boobie, right? I'll let K9 tell you newbies my burned boob story.
HEY FT!!!! So good to see you again. Sorry about your GF. Maybe she'll realize what she's lost and come around.
Excellent news Dottie!! Excellent!!
So- think you can make us a FatBit Skwerly??
I texted Zen and told her to get her
back.....
Hope you are ok Nursie.xoxoxoxoxoxoxo
Hiya Sun and everyone else when you check in....
I got bitced at today about a roach "infestation", that consisted of five, count 'em, five dead roaches seen over the past two weeks. I commented that I was glad they were dead, as that meant the pest control service is working. So...in that mood, I am off to watch some more zombie slashing
Pauly - I feel you on the snooty salons, but wouldn't she make more money?? I go to a snooty one when I have a little extra money. (Almost said snotty...ewwwwwwww

[Kradle123]

Check in. Not drinking. Watching netflix...Fitbit anyone? :love: tired. Distracted but ok...haven't read back but will try.
Love u my people...I cant find the hug smiley ...big hugs:heartbeat:

[sunshinedaisies]

Good Morning everyone .... well this morning is warmer than yesterday - there was frost when I walked the dog yesterday - I thought it was in the 40's but it wasn't !

Kradle - hi there - good that you are checking in .... hang in there.

Laughed at the fatbit thingie !! Now there's an idea !! Hope your hand is okay MB - lavender essential oil is good for burns for future reference. And of course smells delightful ! Why can't you have a garden? I know it is hot in FL but it gets really hot here too in the summer.

Hi there FT, good to see you - I love studying..... how long do you have to do that for ? Sorry about the GF issue but she really was out of order with what went on.

I totally understand about not being able to post when hubs are around ! Mine will wander in when I am trying to post sometimes so I close down the window - there is nothing I wouldn't want him to see but that is not the point. This is my thread - not his ..... I have to have some things that are 'mine'. Oh - and we are both going to stop AL - he got me some Guinness yesterday so as I hadn't taken the AB 'cos of a dental appt yesterday, I did drink yesterday but am back to not drinking again today .... along with brother and hubs !! I feel SO much better when I don't drink - why can I not remember that when I even think about having a drink ?

Glad that heart is okay Dottie - but what a pain for you with the doctor. We cannot change our doc 'cos of insurance - we are stuck with whomever we are given, so you are lucky ! I had a really nice one when I first started on Topa then they went downhill from there. They change every few years - I have just been given another new one but am not sure what he is like yet.

Off to walk the dog ...... have a great day everyone,

Hugs, Sun XXX

Hey all,Sun,that's nice of hubs to go af with you,wish mine would at least give it a chance,sheesh,he's always saying"the neighbor gave it to me,i'm not gonna pass on a free beer"then he goes and buys more,Mama,they were gonna give her 10 bux an hour to start but commision too,but it's a fancy salon geared toward men so i don't think the commision would be that great without colors and styles,plus more money doesn't mean much when you're miserable in your work environment,trust me,been there,done that,i'm starting to feel anxious about Bobbi moving,i kinda just wish she was gone already instead of having this build up,meh,i hate change! hello to everybody,i'll be bacinabit(as Mama would say)
