The easiest way to avoid regrets is to ask yourself this question, "If not now, when?" It's a powerful way to put life and our decisions about how we spend our time into perspective"

Wednesday Gratitudes Posted by Delta on 8/6/2025, 3:14 pm, in reply to "Wednesday gratitudes…" My grandson got home safely about 4:00 AM this morning. He had to stop on the way home and take a nap because he couldn't stay awake after working three days in another state with hardly any sleep, then the company told him that they had to have the samples he was carrying within 8 hours of it being pulled, when it was 5 hours away from headquarters and had him stop at two other places to pick up samples because he was "coming through anyway". My husband's A1C results came back this morning at 7.1! That is the best he has seen since a medication gave him pancreatitis and killed his pancreas so that he had to go on insulin. It is usually in the 9s since then, even with insulin. He had a 6-month check-up with the cardiologist today. He was told that he had one of the best results from CABG that they have ever had, and his heart was still clear and looking good. Of course, he was told 5 years before that surgery that he had the arteries and heart of a 30-something-year-old. Then the medication from hell that not only killed his pancreas it caused/allowed(?) his arteries to suddenly clog around his heart from inflammation in his arteries. Grateful that he can claw back some ground. The great-grandbaby started acting more like himself last night and hasn't run a fever in almost 24 hours. Hopefully, his pneumonia is on the mend and he will recover completely. Hemp lotion heals cracks in hands and feet overnight. No more pain.

Mine Posted by Cindyh on 8/6/2025, 11:38 am, in reply to "Wednesday gratitudes…" Olivia will have good eyesight after surgery (well in a couple of weeks because she will have a patch on). I’ll just be happy when it’s over. 90 minutes to surgery. 11 am I’m back on track good and down what I gained. How do we gain so fast? Emma and Lily are here for a few days. A joyful loud house All of you.

Olivia’s surgery was cancelled Posted by Cindyh on 8/7/2025, 4:08 am, in reply to "Mine" Will be rescheduled. She found a pretzel and ate 1 bite of it They didn’t want to risk aspiration. What a day. They are 3 hours out of town. Went last night

Better safe than sorry Posted by Paula on 8/6/2025, 3:11 pm, in reply to "Olivia’s surgery was cancelled " But all the anxiety leading up to it and, then, having to r/s!

I hope that Posted by Delta on 8/6/2025, 4:07 pm, in reply to " Better safe than sorry " they can get rescheduled early enough to get them to the hospital before she realizes she is hungry next time. NPO is always bad on the littles.

Mine Posted by Paula on 8/6/2025, 9:55 am, in reply to "Wednesday gratitudes…" Cleaned up a bunch of clutter around the house Trying to be ok with my back hurting a lot. Maybe I overdid the driveway walking? I only made it 1 lap yesterday because of pain. I HAVE to have this saga end with my back being ok! Having insurance Rainy day. My plants need this and it matches my mood. Have slept well through most of this journey. Meds help!

My five… Posted by Cindy on 8/6/2025, 8:56 am, in reply to "Wednesday gratitudes…" 1. A loss on the scale! I am so grateful to see that number going DOWN! I clearly have to be more mindful each and every day! I am worth it! 2. I woke up a couple of minutes before my first of 2 alarms went off and decided to stay up! This extra few minutes gives me enough time to post my gratitudes before work! 3. It’s Wednesday! Halfway through my work week! 4. Feeling hopeful again. 5. Loving Ken.
