Toosday talk

Good luck with the house Glenda. You've earned yourself a big kitchen.

Good thoughts for Riley and family.

Good thoughts for Bugsy's evaluation today too.

We're hitting about 80 degrees these days but man, the mornings sure are cold and that's only 50ish. I don't even want to think about it being in the 30s.

Not much else going on other than a lot of work to catch up on. Also watching a Quarter Horse show online and trying not to get too distracted :)

Cathy, are you referring to Lisa's Riley?  Is everything okay?  I know she hasn't been on the forum in a long time, but I'm assuming you see her on Facebook?

We're on Day 2 for sun, and they're saying it'll stick around for a few more days.  It's nippy in the mornings, so layers are required, but boy is it nice to use sunglasses.  I'm not ready to put them away for the season yet.

Holy crazy huge Amex statement! If Deb were here, I'd asked for a stiff drink, stat.

I'm still vacuuming up dead and dying yellow jackets. I feel sort of bad that they don't die instantly from the pesticide. It seems kind of cruel that they suffer. But I'm glad they aren't going to move into my house. The bug guy said the nests commonly hatch out 600-800 hornets. ***Shivers***

Tracy - Yes, Lisa's daughter, Riley, was having what they thought were UTIs the last few days and they ended up admitting her to the hospital. She was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes yesterday. They're feeling overwhelmed with the information and the changes it will mean to their lives. I don't think Lisa would mind me sharing this information and hopefully I'm accurate with my information. I'm sure she'd appreciate prayers and good vibes from everyone.

Awww Cathy thanks for sharing the news of Riley, bless her heart.   Lots of prayers coming your way Lisa and family.

Mom is doing better each day.  She really likes her P.T. lady and is very happy to be home.  Just found out my 6 year old granddaughter has pneumonia, not fun and her birthday party may have to be postponed.  My poor Ava...Nanny is sending you lots of get better vibes and slobbery kisses from Hot and Rock. 

I think I missed some stuff last week but hope everyone is happy and healthy.

Gotta get back to work!

I'm so sorry to hear that Riley and her family are facing this upsetting news.  I'm sure they're completely overwhelmed . . . it will definitely take some time to adjust.  What a shock.

The good thing is that Type 1 Diabetes is manageable, and they've come so far in the treatments and support for people who have it  now.  I had a grade school classmate who had it in the 1970's, as well as my college boyfriend in the late 1980's.  Things like checking their blood were more difficult back then compared to the tools and such they have now.  My friend's teenage daughter was diagnosed with it a couple years ago, and after an adjustment period, she's doing very well, along with the rest of the family.

Please tell Lisa that I'll be keeping all of them in my thoughts and that I'm sending a big batch of strong vibes to all of them.  I'm glad they have such a big, supportive extended family to help them.

Ginger, I got distracted in the middle of typing my post, so I didn't see your update about your Mom and your grand-daughter.  Sending continued PT and recovery vibes to your Mom and some germ-bashing vibes to poor Ava!

Oh gosh.  I'm so sorry for the pneumonia Ginger, and glad to hear that your Mom is doing well.  As for Riley.....wow.  That's a very difficult thing to deal with and I'm so sorry for all of them.  Big hugs, healthy vibes and lots of soothing thoughts heading their way.

WE GOT THE HOUSE!!!!  I'm so excited.  I like the house overall, the location, yard, etc, but the kitchen is the absolute top feature as far as I'm concerned  This kitchen, my island is about 4 foot long and then the other side of the kitchen the counter is broken up by the double sink, then the stove and it's not a very long wall so I'm going to have sooooo very much fun cooking in a kitchen that I don't have to balance everything on top of other stuff!  I CAN work in any kitchen, but it's sure going to be more fun in one that gives me room to move!

I am so happy for you Glenda, enjoy your big kitchen. :) 

Sorry for the little one with pneumonia, my prayers are with her.

Prayers the little one with diabetes. 

Yea Glenda!  I am so happy for you.  Now the work begins.  When can you start moving in?  Great about the kitchen and just in time for all that holiday baking and pasta cooking you always do to make our mouths water. 

Congratulations Glenda!! I don't do as much cooking as you do but I do enjoy it. Having a nice kitchen makes it all the more fun.

Gin - I'm thinking good thoughts and saying prayers for your grandbaby, Ava.

I have 2 good friends who's children had diabetes. I remember both of them talking about how life-changing the diagnosis was. One friend's son was then later diagnosed with Celiac disease just as he was entering high school. I felt so awful for the kid to have even more restrictions placed on his diet. He was mature beyond his years though and handled it all well, as did his parents. Lisa and her husband are going to be rockstars with this too.

Congrats on the house Glenda!

I wonder what bugsy diagnosis was today

Lily is currently stalking neiko to steal his bone. I am sure she will eventually be successful. She usually is.

Abbie has been puking up her honest kitchen lately. It is not all the time and I am trying to figure out what the trigger is. Eating too fast? Too much water? Not enough water? The type of food? Dunno! It's starting to get a bit worrisome though. She is fine health wise.

I need a can on stress be gone.

I'mreally feeling for lLisa! I can't imagine insulin 4x per day. Yikes
