In Fashion Talk 1368914983.147 Good Afternoon/Evening! I have decided that I have a cold rather than allergies. Ended up taking a cold pill last night, and I totally zonked out. I slept so soundly that I missed DH falling in the bathroom again. He told me in the morning, and I was so groggy it took me time to react. After looking at his new medicine that says "may cause dizziness" in big letters, I think I know the cause of his fall. He wasn't badly hurt this time -- thank goodness. I also noticed that he is supposed to take the pill with food or milk, which he did not do. We took our walk this morning, and I'm sl... Continue Reading In Fashion Talk 1368914324.207 Good Afternoon/Evening! Thanks for getting us started Arlene. We could use some of that rain out here in Arizona. But, I remember how much of a drag it was to have rainy day after rainy day. Cute kitty picture. I imagine those danish were delicious. I don't usually indulge in them, but they certainly are tasty. It is hot here as well LindaR, but not as hot as the past few days. I do love the warmth, but sometimes the heat does get to me. After being such a good girl (spending wise) in France, I'm back into my old bad ways. And, I haven't even been back for a week. I bought a new pri... Continue Reading In Fashion Talk 1368825876.693 Good Afternoon/Evening! Needless to say, it is warm here in Arizona. But, not quite as hot as yesterday. DH went to the doctor this morning and got a new medicine to add to the other. Hopefully, this will help him. Yesterday afternoon/evening, my nose started running like crazy, and my throat is really sore. Not sure if allergies are the cause, but I'm not feeling that great. Did manage to sleep a little (emphasis on the little) better last night. I still have so much to do, and I need to push myself. Did manage to finish up the grocery shopping and the Facebook "album" today as well ... Continue Reading In Fashion Talk 1368825025.767 Good Afternoon/Evening! Thanks for getting us started Kathleen. Hope you have a great weekend. Glad you liked your new clothes and worked hard at bootcamp. I'm still not back into exercise yet, although DH and I have been taking our walks. Hi Nancy -- hope the show inserts help. I never was much of a runner, but I find sometimes the shoe inserts do help cushion your foot. Glad you got through Kendall's "stuff". I'm sure it was a big job. Waves to Val -- you are not alone. It is difficult for me to get into the exercise groove, and I was just away for a couple of weeks. I should go tod... Continue Reading In Fashion Talk 1368749202.68 Happy Birthday Kaia! Sorry about M's medication issue Barbara. The tour guide told him that the tour wasn't a democracy, which I thought was a pretty good comeback. He was incorrigible, however. I honestly don't know how his wife has put up with him all these years (I think they have been married 45 plus years). Sorry about your SIL not finding a job yet Claudia, and Adam's choice. I'm reading "Dreams of Joy" by Lisa See (very good by the way), and it deals with the anguish a parent feels when their child makes a really bad decision (in this case to go back to China in the Mao days.) ... Continue Reading In Fashion Talk 1368747320.49 Good Afternoon/Evening! Thanks for getting us started Susan, and thanks for the welcome back. DH had a dental appointment today in Mexico -- finally his implant is finished. I am still having trouble sleeping -- didn't do much better last night, and decided to get up at 4:00 or so. DH got up early as well, so we decided to go for a walk before 6:00 a.m. One of our neighbors was having a garage sale, and I saw a fairly large cactus plant for sale. I didn't have the $$, but I went back later with money and the car -- glad because it was pretty heavy. As some of you saw, I posted some trip ... Continue Reading In Fashion Talk 1368667011.123 Good Evening Everyone! We made it home safe and sound after a very nice trip. So sorry to hear about Jim's health problem Kathy, but I'm happy he has the sick leave. Also happy you are working together on diet, etc. I hope and pray he will be fine. DD has reached a plateau in her weight loss efforts (after losing 85 pounds), but she is sticking with her program of watching her diet and exercise. Maintaining is always a challenge. Glad you are doing well with your exercise and diet efforts Arlene. I managed to put on a few pounds while in France -- all that wine and rich food. But, c'... Continue Reading In Fashion Talk 1368665717.703 We're back -- good to be home again. It was a very nice trip, but pretty much of a whirlwind tour. DH did okay, not great. I am sure he lost weight due to not eating much, and he had trouble sleeping at night due to the usual problem. I didn't sleep well either, but that isn't too unusual. In contrast to DH, I know I put on a few pounds. Lots of nice, rich food, and wine, etc. I'm out of the habit of drinking wine regularly, but it was easy enough to get back into it. LOL And, there were a lot of wine tastings, etc. There were only 15 people on the tour, and there was plenty of roo... Continue Reading In Fashion Talk 1367428955.34 Good Morning/Afternoon! Snow on May 1st (which happens to be our wedding anniversary) is so wrong Barbara. Hope the weather improves there pronto. Sorry about your knee pain and Syd's lazy teacher. It is so disappointing when your kids get a teacher who just doesn't perform well. Looking at our flight schedule it seems as if it will take about 9 1/2 hours to fly from Dallas to Paris and 11 hours to fly back. I am definitely susceptible to jet lag, but my hope is that at least there won't be any big delays or hang-ups. We are supposed to go on a Seine boat cruise that first night, which ... Continue Reading In Fashion Talk 1367427865.96 Good Morning/Afternoon! Thanks for getting us started busy Kathleen. Hope you and LindaR have a great time with Sonya. It is hard to believe that you have been working there for a year -- time goes fast when you are having fun. Hope you get your yard work done Susan. Glad it is a nice day there. It is very nice here as well -- warm, but nice. I ordered some of those self watering probes (similar to the ones Arlene suggested), and I have three going now. Very interesting. Most of the sensitive plants (particularly my beloved basil) will be going next door for plant sitting. Our neighb... Continue Reading
