Morning girl!!!!!!
I had a wonderful weekend with my kids and grandbabies. My son was totally surprised., which in itself is a treat! they had a great time away! I had a blast with the babies. Wonderful, fun,and a lotta snuggle time
Sunday My son and I went skydiving! What a rush! It was soooo much fun. Im hooked! We are planning our next jump in April when I am out there!!!There are NO words to describe it!
My eating was only very slightly good...kind of a token attempt...but not a binge of excess.

My son took me to dinner to celebrate our accomplishment. He had me drink a shot of some licorice liquor fast! I am not much of a drinker..OH MY goodness! My son could only laugh...he said Im getting my mom drunk and that is all it took! The waiter just laughed.
Im thinking taking up drinking is not an appealing idea LOL
Hope your day goes well all!

Hey there Vets!

Mon-so glad you're doing well...you must be busy with April soon approaching.

Deb-Sounds like you're CRAZY...I'm a tade jealous and much too chicken to EVER try skydiving(I think) I'm so impressed at your nerve!!

We too had a fantastic weekend. The weather was perfection. We were in shorts til the sunset and then had jeans and jackets...we took walks like I mentioned and I killed DD1 and Dfriend...there was a stairway with 150 steps...we did it 8X and ran the last one. We were sweaty and very quiet! DD1's calfs were so sore for 2 days...our legs were shakey for 2 hours after. It was funny!
Foodwise was decent too...never got out of control!

Brenda-Sorry you're out of sorts...is it the weather? HOrmones? Just hang in there-continue to work thru and please stay in contact!! We're here for you, babe!!

Ilse-you're doing so well! Hope your knees are okay! Do you do any stretching?? This might help with pain, ???

Sharon-Take it easy, girl...I"m sorry your feeling sad---you are processing emotions that are very difficult to face. Make sure your taking your supps...your brain needs all the help it can to be able to handle this...especially with ketosis.

Everyone else...hopefully you are all healthy and happy...taking time to nurture yourself and enjoy the moment...

I got up early this morning and went swimming for 45 minutes. My eating is going ok.

Brenda and I live near each other. I think that when my knees hurt extra, she has migraines. I think it's related to the weather.

Another LC meeting tonight lead by Barb Keith. I am not looking forward to driving from Schaumburg, where my WW meeting is and Geneva. It's a least a 26 mile drive from where my WW meeting is. The meeting will be in a low-carb store.

Connie, sounds like the beach was awesome! JEALOUS is what I am! I know I say it often, but I am!

Deb, sounds like your grandbabies and you had fun! Oh and look at you jumping out of a perfectly good plane. In college it is something I wanted to do, now that I have children NOT SO MUCH! KWIM? BUT WTG girl! Sounds like a great weekend.

Ilse, let us know how the meeting goes.

Connie and Deb, it sounds like you both had a great time in your respective weekends!

DH and I drove up to a small dairy farm on Saturday to sign up to receive milk and cream straight from the farm. They also sell eggs from truly free-range hens. We enjoyed it, especially the tom turkey strutting ever so importantly around the place. Sunday my niece called and said she needs a costume for a Shakespeare play she's going to be in two weeks from now. We went to the fabric store and picked out a pattern and fabric. I'm getting excited about making it as it's going to be really lovely. I've made her costumes for three years running now. Had a bout with dizziness that the ENT diagnosed yesterday as inner-ear congestion and feel much better today.

Spring is on its way! I spotted a yellow crocus in my flower bed this morning.

Hi gang,

I've been a little scarce around here lately too. But all is well. Went out to dinner Saturday night to Dover Straits for Dfriends b-day. Had steak and lobster. Wow was it awesome! It's great to eat that well and still be on plan.

The weather is improving around here too. I've seen crocuses and other flowers poking their little noses out from under the earth and the grass is beginning to turn.

BC and Sharron, I hope you guys get back to your usual selves again soon.

Monica how are he workouts going?

Con, thanks for the tennis elbow tip. It's been almost a year since I injured it. It's getting better, but I'm afraid to try to hit some balls. I don't want to come back too fast and re-injure it.

Hey all. Checking in late, but checking in. It sure does my heart good to see all of you here. Had a doctor visit today for the annual bone density scan and ultrasound--unfortunately, my Dr. had to run deliver a baby before she could do the ultrasound, so now I have to go baaaaack.......wah!

I do have a bone to pick with you warm weather gals, though. NO FAIR!!! LOL, Deb, skydiving!!! You brave soul (both the skydiving and licorice liquor). I have heard it's addictive (the skydiving). In fact, it was something my ex-DH took up after our divorce--at the time I thought it was just a well deserved death wish. Just kidding!!

And Connie, too much good weather and having fun!!!

Mon, so glad you are doing well. Lent agrees with you!

Gregg, glad you enjoyed your nice evening at Dover Straights. Haven't been there in a while--does make me think about something deliciously fishy. Hope that elbow will be totally healed in time for some summer fun, Gregg.

Ilse, I have awakened in the middle of the night several times the past two weeks with a migraine beginning. The new meds have headed it off each time, but I do feel more tired. And just existentially angsty, if that's a word. No question the migraines, at least, are weather related. Whatever the rest is, will sort itself out. Hope your meetings go well tonight.

Esther, are you getting vertigo from your ear condition? If so, I really, really feel for you. So what is the costume going to be??? And oh, yes, I get farm eggs every month and just love everything about them....

See you all tomorrow
