Beth - very impressive drinking girl!

Lulu - I agree no holding out - my curiosity is high when I'm tired - would make you a cupcake.

BTW lulu - I officially challenge you to a scrabble night duel and/or night of various other games (i don't play chess though). Although - it might be beneficial to be on the same team - I think we would kick some ass!

Of course there will have to be lots of mojitos and I make a mean tequila punch.

I look at new washers and dryers, but everyone I talk to has mixed feelings about what they have!! Some love their front loaders, and those with steam clean options, others despise them.....too many decisions!! Especially since it seems my old Maytag set I have is going to last forever!! They are minimally 10 years old, and going strong, nothing wrong, no reason to replace....except they have newer prettier ones out there now!!! Meanwhile----the ones I have worked and laundry is done, well last load is in the dryer. I thought of y'all with every damn shirt I folded!!!

My 3 year old grandson decided we are going to go to Fuddruckers for dinner! He just learned to say it and not make the great Grandma's gasp in horror! It is a 50's style hamburger place. Lots of memorabilia both local and 50's all over the place. The best thing about going there, is that you order, and then they have bars for all the fixin's so you can have it your way. No the BEST thing about it is, that if the extended family insists on bringing extra people we do not know, every kid they have brings a friend etc. THEY get to pay for them! It is a pay as you come in kind of place, so each family unit covers their own. Amazingly they often don't show up when they are expected to buy their own!!! Doesn't hurt my feelings!!!

Addition to the shop is going up nicely.....AND they guy doing it, I find him amazingly attractive, and furthermore-----I can have my way with him any time I want!!! In fact.....took him a cold beer and shared a kiss just a few minutes ago. He may not make Cosmo......but he trips my trigger!!!! LOL

Cupcakes are yummy! I did just the opposite, and bought the mini cupcake/muffin tins. Easier to limit myself, and easier for my young grandkids to handle. And in my DH's opinion the ratio of icing to cake is better!!!

Well better get myself cleaned up and ready to go party! See ya!

Kat - yes you do have it much better by being able to look and touch (***now very sad***

I forgot to answer your question SLIM about the W&D. I got the high efficiency front loading Electrolux - I laughed Lulu when you mentioned yours - because mine are red - and I was like - how did she know.

I opted not to get the steam cleaning because the salesmen says it was extra money for nothing really - because the regular version has a sanitation cycle and the Water temp is high enough that it accomplishes the same thing the steam cleaning would.

They are the bright spot in my very scary basement (that my BIL has nicknamed - the place where bad things happen)

I agree! I might do that tonight though!:thumbdown:

I could cheat for your team! I play scrabble ok, but not very well. I really don't play chess well. DS taught me to play.

Of course there will have to be lots of mojitos and I make a mean tequila punch.

The last time (and first) I had tequila, I didn't remember the rest of the night. I remember parts of it, but there are some lost hours.:scared2:

So then you're in for the tequila punch?

So if the 3 of us are a team - who's going to play against us?!?

They would have to be one heck of a player to beat the three of us! :thumbup:

I am about to go and make my mojitos. DH said he couldn't take it because he likes them so much.:scared2: More for me.:thumbdown:

Meh, used to be able to do much more when I was heavier. Went out with a group one night and did 13 drinks total and could still walk a fairly straight line. Seven of those were Long Island Iced Teas. I get much drunker much quicker these days after a few, so even five was pretty impressive. Granted, we started around 7:00ish and quit drinking sometime after 3:00. Even walked the neighborhood twice during that time. Was out like a light, though. Won't EVEN admit how many Xanex... :thumbdown:

I'm not like this (neither is hubby), but I think I needed it. If that makes sense. I've been in a humongous funk for over a week now and I've never been a party girl, so...

I think you did too. I am glad that you were able to enjoy yourself, even if it did take quite a bit to get you there.:thumbdown:

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
