Ooh snow, nice. Hoping for snow in england, usually happens after chrristmas...
What are weight loss stones?

emme99 12-05-2016 03:45 PM

Hi Dan~ the weight loss stones are little decorative stones with numbers on them that my diet center gives out when you reach a milestone at 10, 20, 30lbs, etc. I use them for motivation :)
I love snow. Wishing you a white Christmas (or after Christmas) :)

Today I am grateful for:

1. the $5 credit I had on my Walgreens card I didn't know I had
2. the two flocks of birds I saw today sitting on power lines enjoying the last couple of nice days :)
3. lip balm
4. finding the pens I like on Amazon for less than 1/2 of what I pay for them in the store. Makes me want to take the two I bought today back :) but I won't.

emme99 12-06-2016 09:57 PM

Today I am grateful for:

1. oranges and orange juice
2. being invited to my "nephew's" 2nd birthday party (nephew via marriage :) )
3. getting the new puppy with weekend! :)
4. possibly being able to go to my mom's neurologist apt this Friday, if my cold is better, hopeful I can go as I feel like any missed apt is a failure, but at the same time I don't want to make my mom sick, I just hope I am better.

I hate to ask and don't know that I ever have before but if anyone has any positive thoughts or prayers to spare, if possible I would appreciate a positive thought or prayer for my mom. She had blood transfusions last week due to her low white blood count being low and this week she needs shots to raise her red blood count. Just needing prayer or positive thoughts if possible :) thank you in advance ♥ I appreciate it a lot ♥

Today I am grateful for:

1. that I got to work with one of my coworkers for a year :) her last day was today, she is still working for us but remotely from another state. Grateful she was around this last year and that I will still be able to talk to her remotely :)
2. grateful for the house I drive by sometimes on my way home from work that has their front yard filled with Christmas decorations as it reminds me of my German Shepherd Hannah who used to bark like crazy whenever we drove by their house :) grateful for memories.
3. the $1 store where I got a bunch of gift bags, tags, wrapping paper, tissue pater, bows, etc tonight :)
4. getting the new puppy LuLu this weekend!! I hope I can go but if I am still sick I am not going to but so excited for my brother & sister in law to bring her home :)

How's your Mom doing, Emme? :hug:

emme99 12-09-2016 12:33 PM

Hi Opi :) The shots helped bring up her blood counts and they will decide next Tues if she can start her next round of the chemo pill. She sees the neurologist today as one of her tests showed she had a TIA so they want to have her checked. It could have been from a long time ago though. I wanted to go today but this cold is hanging on and she is susceptible to getting sick. She is doing ok though, thanks for asking :hug: Happy Friday :)

Today I am grateful for:

1. getting the puppy tonight!! the weather is supposed to be bad on Sunday so we are going tonight instead :)
2. cool touch Kleenex
3. cinnamon fire jolly ranchers
4. SR

Opivotal 12-09-2016 12:46 PM

Happy Friday! :)

I'm sure your Mom feels your love, even if you can't be there right now. I hope your cold subsides soon and you can visit. Keeping your Mom in my prayers. :hug:
