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"

Cinq Choses Pour Moi Posted by Krista on 8/14/2025, 4:51 pm, in reply to "Thursday Grats?" 1) Dad and Paul are talking about additional things to make life easier for Dad - a chair lift, walk in tub changes, hearing aids. It's really refreshing to hear them thinking about the future. Yes, Dad will probably have an ostomy bag after surgery but he's still going to live and that's very positive in my eyes 2) starting to make payments against my surgery which is Sep 23 3) Paula's wound vac will be gone by this time tomorrow I hope! 4) Ray - the love of my life 5) feeling optimistic about the future

September 23!!! Posted by Joan on 8/15/2025, 8:12 am, in reply to "Cinq Choses Pour Moi" That's right around the corner!!! I'm so excited for you!!!

Life is short :) Posted by Krista on 8/15/2025, 9:06 am, in reply to "September 23!!!" I decided I was not going to wait a year or even 5 years for the surgery which is what I would have to do in order for it to be covered by my health plan. I want to live life again NOW ♥

Krista Posted by Beverl!y on 8/14/2025, 6:06 pm, in reply to "Cinq Choses Pour Moi" It's really amazingly wonderful all the many things available to help people have an easier life. It's nice to think about the ways it will be positive for your dad! Your surgery will be happening before you know it. I love to hear you are optimistic!

Mine Posted by Paula on 8/14/2025, 9:14 am, in reply to "Thursday Grats?" Going to text my regular nurse and tell her this vac has to come off! My skin is itching so badly under the dressing that it's waking me up during the night and I can't go back to sleep. Driving me crazier than I already am!! 240.2 Not grateful for that BUT it's good practice for me to not be derailed by the scale when it isn't cooperating. Making the turkey skillet today Getting my hair done tomorrow! It's been 3 months because I was in the hospital for my last appointment. I book with her a year at a time because that's the only way to see her! 12 weeks without color...have a Bonnie Raitt thing going on! This morning around 5:30 (I was already awake, scratching), one of the dogs let out a blood curdling howl. I think it was Lew but can't be sure. By the time I turned the lights on and got out of bed (have to get the vac!), they were both sound asleep. I was so afraid it was Lew's death knell. Must have been one hell of a dream!

Paula Posted by Beverly on 8/14/2025, 6:12 pm, in reply to "Mine " Yes... it's time for the vac to come off. I am thrilled it will finally happen. Let me sing AMen. Turkey skillet sounds yummy!

Love getting…. Posted by Cindy on 8/14/2025, 4:05 pm, in reply to "Mine " My hair done! Getting that vac off and your hair done will make you feel like a new woman!

The itch sounds bad Posted by Cindyh on 8/14/2025, 9:53 am, in reply to "Mine " It’s irritating I’m sure. Hopefully it can come off Paula. What’s in the turkey skillet! I use ground turkey. Always looking for something new I wouldn’t stress over the 240. The scale always bounces like that.

It is! Link to turkey skillet. Posted by Paula on 8/14/2025, 10:06 am, in reply to "The itch sounds bad" https://www.skinnytaste.com/turkey-taco-skillet/?utm_campaign=grocerslist&utm_medium=FB_comment&utm_source=grocerslist
