One Step at a Time - March 2016

[NoraC]

This is how I felt....I couldn't see the path. But, I began stumbling my way forward and I feel like I am finally finding my way.

Never give up.

[NoraC]

Thought I better get this started. I am heading to bed.

Kids are having a wonderful honeymoon. They were in Springfield, Boston, Salem and today is New York. Tomorrow is Philadelphia. Back to Springfield on Wednesday.

The college that he has applied to is having an Open House on Wed. The counselor told him to be sure to get his face out there in front of the department head. Seems really positive so far. They would be back there for at least 36 months. Oh well - now I have a place to visit.

Off to bed. Catch you all in the morning.

[NoraC]

Morning all.

Have a GREAT day.

Hi all, I'm looking to change things up (again) this month of March. Mind if I join in your thread? I really like your post to start this month off Nora! I'll stumble forward one day at a time too.

[NoraC]

Actiongirl - GREAT to have you here. :yay: You can see that it has taken me YEARS to reach this point. So, I'm absolutely stumbling forward. Glad to have you here so we can help pull each other along.

Pauly - you made me laugh about the Nora thread. It seems to always be that way. LOL I'm sure you look gorgeous today. Hope you don't have to go take it off. Ha, ha.

Fen - Yep, go for him if that's what you feel. And, I never got to post it last night but I think there are many more 'bi' women than people would realize.

Got to run - break is over. :checkin: everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome, actiongirl!

Well, we had a mini blizzard today. I drove my earnest money over to the seller's realtor after I hit the gym this morning. From there, I had a dentist's appt.- emergency sort of thing. When I slack off on my brushing (behind my lower back right toof) I develop a stalagmite of calculus that digs into the soft tissue and needs to get chiseled off. When my dentist heard all the stuff I was going through lately, he didn't charge me for the visit, LOL! I will have to show up with a sob story each time from now on.

I went grocery shopping, then came home and shoveled the neighbor's drive and deck. She had surgery a few weeks ago and is in a lot of pain, so we've all been going over and shoveling...except for Barb, who told her we'd do it!

Pauly, that sucks about your allergies. I never heard of turmeric for them.

Rusty, did you get weather?

Mama, how are you? Liz?

Nora, sorry about son and DIL, but that would be a great experience for them...and there's always skype, plus you've gained another vacation place. Word to the wise, however...wait until spring to visit!

[actiongirl46]

Thanks for the warm welcome! We had snow here today as well. I'm not real fond of it but it does add a bit of excitement to life when you have school aged kids. Will it be a snow day or not??? The suspense . . .

I did make it to the gym though before they closed for weather. Felt good about that. I also got some music in today as well as some work and quality family time. It felt like a slow and boring day but looking back what more do you want?? Everyone home, healthy and happy. I'll take that.

Rusty, I'm in Michigan, right across the lake from you I think! Thanks for having me - AG

[Rusty]

Good Morning Friends and Happy Hump Day!

Actiongirl-WELCOME! When I was in the automotive industry, I was in Michigan every month. Now, I only go three times a year but I love the area I go to...Muskegon...beautiful there. . So glad you have joined us.

Fen-Loved the sob story and you schmoozing the dentist. Hey, I am also hoping you develop a friendship with this maintenance man. GOOD FOR YOU For moving on. Oh yes, we got blasted with snow and I am up in Manitowoc now where it's even colder than at home.

Big hellos to everyone else. I have NOT gone to the gym in DAYS and am going right now.

A special shoutout to Skendall and NE...check in, please!

Happy Hump Day, everyone!

Hey all,Nora,I totally misunderstood the post about your son,so they're moving? It's depressing when kids move away,I miss little Bobbi everyday we Snapchat a lot instead of texting so I can see her environment, plus I got her a fitbit and she's supposed to be competing with me but last week she didn't even rank! It makes me feel closer to her though, hey AG,feel free to post here,we have abstainers,med users,modders a hodgepodge of peeps living life on their terms wonder what Mr,Vervill is up to? Thought of him the other day, hubs is fed up with the keurig he made a pot of real coffee today,we blow through the pods so fast its making me realize that I'm spending the beer money I'm saving on coffee pods! I'll still use it on a daily basis like first thing in the morning or to try new flavors and such,hope everyone has a great Wednesday

[Mr Vervill]

Speak of the Devil, and he appears. Trying to get my head back in the game, so to speak. I'll try and post daily. Hope Everyone's well.

[NoraC]

Very quick check in -
Rusty we are having another audit today thru Friday? I guess this is the yearly one? I don't know anything except it is STRESSFUL here at work.

AC - Sorry that it's been so quiet here but watch out we get gabby. I'll try to get on this evening and bore you to tears. LOL

Mr V - I am so HAPPY to see you. I hope you do check in everyday. It is important to keep that connection and help to stay accountable. :hug:

Mama said that she can't get on MWO.

Got to run. I hope to be around later. Have a FANTASTIC DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[paulywogg]

Great to see you Mr.V how's things going? Keep posting through the good,bad and ugly,that's what I had to do,stay connected

[Lizann]

I posted on February thread last night! These months are just flying by.

Hey mr V. Love it when you post!

AG, yes please join us, the more the merrier. Sounds like you had a perfect evening with the family. Happy and healthy doesn't get much better than that.

Nora, sounds like the kids are having a good time. When does he find out if he's going to move?

Pauly, I'm sure you look so pretty in your tight shirt! You got it, flaunt it. Sorry about the allergies. I am the only one in my house who doesn't suffer from them. I know oh miserable they can be.

Fen, I can relate to off days are busy days. That's great the dentist didn't charge you. So this is really gonna happen with the condo? Can't wait to hear how this thing with the guy from work unfolds. Really sounds like things are turning around for you. You so deserve it!

Rusty, what's new in your neck of the woods? Where are you off to next?
Sounds like some of that winter weather is coming our way. I don't even mind so much.

Taking Lucy back to the vet tomorrow for a follow up. Not looking forward to it, the wait is always so long. Lucy is feeling great and I'm so thankful.
Tough day at work for me. Yet another very difficult patient and a doctor scolded me for something that was not really my fault. Wait, totally not my fault. I was seriously close to tears but decided I'm not gonna let them dictate my mood. So I'm venting here

We are currently watching Fuller House. A little hoakie but takes me back to when my girls were little. Those were the good old days. We also started watching Lie to Me and White Collar. A whole new world for me this Netflix is.

[actiongirl46]

Hi all - Liz, I'm so glad Lucy is doing well! And great job on not getting upset at work . . . that is a tough skill to learn, especially when its not your fault!! I am working on that one myself.

I'm going skiing with the hubby tomorrow. It will be my first and last time this season. We really really need to spend some time together so this will be good, I hope, its a bit of a drive. Here's hoping I don't break anything!! :eek-new:

Nora, quiet, gabby, its all good! I'm just glad to be here.

See you soon - AG
