Snowmom

Please both of you, please just send me your addresses and I will add you to the list.     

 

We need more so of course  you may join.    

 

Just hurry with your addresses so I will be able to add you to the list and get them sent out.          I will resend the list to those I did send to.      

 

Thanks so much for joining.           

 

 

Good morning,

 

Once again it has been three weeks so here goes.  

 

For October 8 – 14, I walked 23.72 miles.     I had a lot to do before surgery. 

 

For October 15 – 21, I walked 12.92 miles.     I didn’t do much after surgery.

 

For October 21 – 28 I walked 15.7 miles.     I did get a few more miles this week.    I am in hopes to be getting more and more miles these next few weeks.  

 

I was thinking it was only 2 weeks, then I saw it was 3.     Time sure goes by fast.    

 

        I know what you mean about the phone.     I carry mine but, it isn't on unless I need it.      

 

That is ok about the miles too.       You just need to start someplace.        

 

You take care and do what you are able to.   

Aww, I was in hopes you would be able to join us again this year Midnightmom.  

 

So, it looks like there will be only the 4 of us this year.        Snapshotmiki, Pauline, windmorn and myself.        I did wait a while before sending addresses out in case someone else decided to join in the fun.      

 

Now you can get these done and try to get them in the mail by Thanksgiving.       

 

Midnightmom, you take care of you.         

Christmas Ornament Exchange 2017                                  

 

 

 

It is getting late but, if you would like to join in on having a Christmas Ornament Exchange again this year, please sign up soon.     Soon being by the20th and I will try to get all the names and addresses out to you by the following week sometime.        But, you will know about how many are in the exchange so you will be able to start working on your ornaments.

I think you all know what the rules are but I try to put them in each year for anyone who has not joined the exchange in the past.

You must let me know your name and address, PM me here.

If you sign up, you must make an ornament for all who sign up, not just one or two.    Therefore if there are 12 of us signed up, you make for all 12.

I’m asking if you would please try to get them out before Thanksgiving as so many people put their tree up around that time.   

  

 

 

Miles for October 1 – 7

 

Here are my miles for the past week, they are 24.6.

I hope you all are trying to do a bit of walking or some form of exercise.  

 

Well, I was going to say Good Morning, but, it is after 12:00 now so Good afternoon.  

Again I’m sorry for being so late with posting miles.     We have had so much going on.    If it wasn’t an appointment it was company and a wedding. 

Here are the miles.

July 30 – August 5,  23.99.     August 13 -19, I did 24.12 miles.    August 20 – 26,  I did 24.54 miles.   August 27 – September 2,   I did 29.13 miles.    September 3 – 9,   I did 21.3 miles.      September 10 – 16, I did 25.09 miles.        September 17 – 23, I did 24.9 miles.     September 24 – 30, I did 19.72 miles.

I will try to do better in the future.  

I got the pictures in the Gallery now.  

 

Well the fair has been over for a couple weeks now.

 

 For some reason I am not able to add my post so not sure if I an put any pictures in here at all.       I tried just the flower pictures and they wouldn't let me post just 4 pictures.         

Guess I need to put them in the Gallery again this year.    .

 

            

 

Good morning,  

 

I am going to try something here.     

 

That worked.        

 

I no longer am able to put the pictures on here from my Photobucket as I am cheep.    I don't want to pay them.    It use to be free and now they want money for being on there and posting pictures elsewhere.      

 

Anyway, for the week of July 16 - 22 I did  20.84 miles.

For the week of July 23 - 29 I did 21.78 miles.   

 

Now I will try to put a post in Homemade Memories about the fair sometime today. 

 

Momo, yes, Gary did find out what the CT scan had to say.         The doctors were very pleased with the results.       BUT, there was a spot that was not looking so good.     They said it was an infection.    The Oncologist

gave him medication that was/is hard on him.    The day he took it his appetite went from fairly good down to nothing again.           He talked with one of the nurses this morning and she will be getting back to us after talking to the oncologist

, so hope they will give him something different for the infection.   

 

I need to post this in the other forum too.  

 

               

 

I am so sorry to hear about all these deaths.    

 

You take care of you and yours.    Stay safe.  

 

I don't watch much of the news anymore either.  

I love it.    I see at least 3 that I made and 1 that Forgiven made.           Right now I can't remember who made the others.     I have had so much on my mind and I'm getting older.        

Thank you for sharing this with us.  

 

      

 

Now to catch you all up on some of the stuff.  

On the 6^th of June Gary had a pet scan and it was inconclusive.      There were spots on it and they were not sure what they were.      It could be left over of pneumonia or could be a bit of COPD or it could still be cancer.      Therefore on July 20^th he will be going for a CT scan.  

Minnie did damage the knee again and we still haven’t decided what to do.     She is almost 12 years old, so how much longer will she live.      She is getting around good now but, then on the other hand, she could do better if she had the surgery again.     Of course it would cost another arm and leg as well as she would have to stay in boarding for another 4 weeks and that gets expensive too.     I think we are just waiting a while and will talk to the vet again later on.   

I have a cousin about 2 hours from here and one of my nieces and I went to visit her in June and then later on Gary, our DD and I went back up to see her.   

I am now doing my pace maker every month so it seems to be getting closer to time for a new one.  

Our oldest son’s youngest son was here for 2 weeks and DS came last Thursday and they left Saturday morning.

Our youngest son’s youngest son was here from Sunday the 9^th of July to Friday the 14^th of July.      We took him back half way to Fargo.    We had a nice time at a Pizza Hut with our 3 kids, as well as the two grandsons and also the oldest son of our youngest son and his girlfriend.      I will have to get a picture of our group there. 

The county fair was held last week and we picked up our things yesterday, July 16^th.       I will put pictures in sometime within the next couple weeks.    

 

Ok, now for the miles I have done for the past month or so. 

The week of June 10th I walked 27.37 miles.   

The week of June 24th I walked 23.22 miles.                                               

The week of July 1st I walked 22.58 miles.

The week of July 8th I walked 28.62 miles

The week of July 15th I walked 25.08 miles. 

 

Remember, I had to put in a lot of miles while baking and such for the fair. 

Oh yes, to top it all off, I got a good burn on my right index finger while making hard candy for the fair.   

I am so sorry I haven’t been in here for the past couple weeks.   

My fit bit says for the week of May 14 – 20^th, I walked 20.84 miles.     The week of May 21 – 27^th, I walked 23.93 miles.     For the week of May 28 – June 3^rd I walked 26.86 miles.

 

Well, now Minnie has been having problems with her leg that he had surgery on a few years ago.    We are taking her to her Doctor in a little while.      She is limping and not walking on that leg at all, she only uses it for balance.         

Tomorrow we go to Bemidji again and have to be there by 8:00 and Old Pine will be having a Pet Scan to see if there is any cancer there now.      We are all praying that the cancer is gone.   

         

I know I haven’t been in here lately but, here are my miles for the past 3 weeks. 

April 23 – 29 my miles were 23.8 miles. 

April 30 – May 12 my miles were 23.19 miles.

May 7 – 13 my miles were 24.59 miles.

 

Keep walking and exercising.         

 

I have just a minute or so to come in here.  

I wanted to post the miles for last week.  

They are  22.44 miles according to my fit bit.    

                

                  This dog looks so much like our Minnie.    

 

Another quick post.      Miles for April 2 - 8 were 21.36 and for April 9 - 15 the miles are 24.93.     These are the miles according to my fit bit.  

I went shopping 3 different days so that helped.   

 

                          

 

I will get to the point.    March 19 - 25th I walked 19.29 miles and March 26 - April 1st, I walked 23.85 miles.     These miles are all according to my fit bit.    Who will be next.  

     

 

Thank you so much Momo for doing this post. I just haven't been on line much at all lately.

 

We have all be sick around here lately. DD has had a sore throat for 3 or 4 weeks and now has sinus problems. Old Pine started his second round of chemo with a cold and so was and is on medication. I have been having problems with my sinus also and have medication for this and I only went up on Wednesday last week with them. DD does all the driving or has been until this week. Our oldest DS is here to do the driving this week. Old Pine has only radiation two times a day these next 2 + weeks and then will be done April 4th. He will start a 3rd round of chemo about the 12th of April.

For the week of 5 - 11 I did 23.3 miles and for the week of March 12 - 18 I did 23.26 miles.

 

 

 

Have a good day and :bighug2:

Once again I am going to just add miles today, as I am running out of time this morning. I have some things I need to get done today so don't want to spend to much time on here.

Last week according to my fit bit, I walked 24.02 miles so that is a much better number than last week. At least I think it is better. I made several trips down and up stairs again. With laundry and finding canned foods etc.

I hope you all

I have been so not into doing much at all on line these past few weeks. So will just give you my miles again today.

According to my fit bit, I walked 20.94 miles for the week. We weren't on the road so much this week.

We are home again this week except for what we want to do. No doctor appointments, Old Pine has an appointment on Thursday with the dietitian to check his sugars. I may get my hair cut too, but, not sure.

So you all

Well, I just have things to do so will be putting in just the miles again this week.

So, I guess with all the traveling I really didn't do to bad as I got 15.11 miles in last week.

We won't be doing as much traveling this week. but, with my thigh and leg now giving me problems I won't be doing a lot of walking either. I am going to see about going to my chiropractor tomorrow and hope this will help.
We go back on Wednesday and then next week it will be one trip back up to Bemidji and I think we have a week off.

 

Last week we saw the oncologist in Bemidji and that is about half the distance as Fargo is for us. It is a lady and she was really good, she said we will do this and this and this and as soon as the insurance comes through he will be doing the Chemo and Radiation.

We went to Bemidji yesterday to have a port put in for the chemo. Today we go back to see the radiation oncologist and to have a lesson or something like that about chemo, I guess it is to explain about the dos and don’ts and such. It sounds like the insurance has come through as the way it sounds, he will be getting his first treatment tomorrow also. It will be 30 days in a row, minus the weekends for the radiation treatments and 4-6 groups of 3 days of chemo. The chemo will be 3 days and then wait for a week or two and then another 3 days of chemo and so on. This is going to be a lot of traveling for sure

*******************

I am not sure if I will be able to get in here every week during these treatments to post miles so I will depend on Momo to do this.

I am just going to put miles in today as you all know what counts.

 

For February 5 – 11^th, I did 15.69 miles according to my fit bit.

 

We saw the oncologist and it sounds like a lot of chemo and radiation is what Old Pine will be going through. We have to decide just where we are going to do it though as Fargo is a long way off and there is another place closer we are going to see if he can go to.

 

*******************

These are as you can count them, 1 mile will = one mile. , walking, and such.

 

*********

These will be counted as 1 hour = one mile also.

 

***************************

These will be down and up 10 times = one mile

 

********

These will be counted as 30 minutes = one mile.

 

 

 

 

 

 

*****************************

You will have to be the judge of these. We have been counting 1 hour as a mile, but, sometimes it isn't so. Therefore, I'm letting you be the judge of these.

 

 

************

For January 29 - February 4 I did 21.62 miles according to my fit bit.

*********

Ok, who will be
