Popping in to say HI!!!

by Skippy!

Nov 7, 2016

Hi, to anyone still around here who used to know me!!! Looks like it is much quieter around here these days, than it used to be, but hoping some of my friends from years ago might still be checking in, even if not posting :-) Skippy! xx

Elaine/ret/IN Great dinner with DD and family. As always, we do our own thing: bread stuffing with chestnuts and pears, quinoa stuffing with kale and mushrooms, kale salad with orange dressing and walnuts and cranberries, and mini frozen coconut chocolate tarts. Yummy. I ate too much.

Today: cashew cheese cheese ball, polenta stacks, and leftovers. ...See More

She asked me to inform you when and if this occurred. May she now be at peace after her long struggle with cancer. You can find her obituary in the Ionia Sentinel Stand...See More

Kathy I have chronic sciatica. After my knee replacement it was totally out of control. The PT gave me a couple of simple exercises which have helped. I am also on anti- inflammatories. Kathy

Betty Ann Ouch! I still remember the horrible pain I had from sciatica 16 years ago. I've had minor flareups, but nothing major in the interval. Good luck to you--and do the PT.

Novel Have heard of several people suffering after their inoculations this year. Wonder if that means they are really working. Had flu shot for first time ever this year and was fine apart from what feels like bruising in upper arm, but Mum was in bed for two days after hers. Glad you and C pretty steady and not having to take any extra mess or anything....See More

Lost weight

by Novel

Oct 11, 2016

I was weighed at the doctor today and have lost a stone!

Didn't even try really - just stuck to sugar-reduced diet and experienced the stress of my new job...hmmm.

Still need to lose a lot more but do feel better in some ways already.

How are all of you?

Knee update

Oct 13, 2016

I am 4 weeks and 2 days out from a total knee replacement. I am doing very well. I walk with a cane when I go long distances or walk on uneven ground. I am in PT twice a week, but hope to be done in a few weeks. They have me scheduled through the end of November. I don't have time for that.

Kathy So far I have been able to schedule PT around the days I already have set up to sub. I need to ask the two,PTs I am working with what their latest appointments are in case I need to change times. One comes in at 8:00, so I might be able to see her after school. I know the other is in early, so I may be able to see her before school. I know that I a...See More

Elaine/ret/IN Great news, Kathy! Sounds like you are taking great
advantage of your retirement, keeping your finger in the
pie, so to speak, while doing self-care as well. Keep
walking.
