  1. Thanks, Everyone, for your kind words and the welcoming of Susan. She's a really great lady and will contribute to and receive loads from you folks.

    Yep, Katha, July sucks.

    By the way, that photo is of MY NIECES!!! who happen to be your daughters.

    Love you,

    Fran

    P.S. Does Mama know?

  2. LCSC Family;

    I just found out that our first cousin has been diagnosed with LC which has metastisized to her liver and lymph nodes and is unoperable. She will be starting chemo on Monday. She likes her medical team and they sound very aggressive as they are already looking into clinical trials. She beat breast cancer 6 years ago and has a great attitude toward this round.

    Of course, I told her about this website and have encouraged her to come on over. She was very supportive when Terry (T-Bone) was ill.

  3. Here's a new game: everybody pitch in 100 pennies for a chance to deck the tech. Then we 25 people have achieved stress release with the tech decking, you can take those 2500 pennies to the nurse to pay your bill.

    Just a thought....

  4. It varies but I've been doing a lot of grilling, fish and asparagus mostly, on my George Forman grill. And I do a lot of Lean Cuisines these days. Eat out maybe once or twice a week.

    And like Ann, when I do grill or cook, I do a lot and put in divided Rubbermaid covered plates for lunches and future dinners.

    P.S. Oh yeah, I'm back so need to turn in my "Wind in my hair" pass. Had a great time.

  5. Need the "Wind in My Hair" pass for the weekend as I'm taking my little red sports car to Atlanta to the Walter Mitty Historic Car Races at Road Atlanta. Not gonna race but will get to do a parade lap with my club.

    I'm so excited! Will take lots of pictures and maybe get someone to take one of me with my car.

    See y'all late Sunday night.

  6. I am a sleek bright red Jaguar XJ7 with a purring well honed 350 HP engine tht goes 0-60 in 'bout 2 seconds flat!

    Can you guess I'm feeling real good about my 20 lbs weight loss associated with healthy eating and living? I don't think I've ever had the energy I seem to have these days. Increased my work out to three 12 minute miles this morning.

  7. Noooo, Frank, do not, I repeat, do not mention a "to-do" list to a neighbor. I just did that to a new potential significant other since he SAID he liked to do handy jobs, and all of a sudden he got real sick and moved back to Baltimore! So, I built my steps off my back porch by myself this weekend. It was beautiful here in middle Tennessee. Took my little red car out for a spin or two.

    Breathe all that fresh air folks: BREATHE DEEP!

  8. Mama always said to us as we left the house "Be sweet, pretty, good and nice and behave yourself.". I still hear it even now as I go somewhere and it pretty much sums up how to get along well in life.

    I also think one of the most wise things she did was to NOT give us a curfew. She told us to use our own judgement. And we knew that we had better use her's if we wanted to keep on using our's!

  9. My constant companion is Little Bit, a rather large cat. While I'm doing my exercises early in the morning she's laying on her back with an expression that says "Hey, Mom, I'll handle the stretching. You take care of the work out part!"

    What would I do without her? I cannot answer as she's helped me through a divorce and the loss of a brother. She's my "Honey Baby Girl Kitty". Poor cat never knows which name to answer to.

  10. Good Morning, All;

    One note: chasing the vinegar (acid) with milk may negate the benefits of the acid as milk is on the alkaline side of neutral pH. That's why milk seems to ease acid indigestion.

    If you can do it straight with no chasers, probably best. Of course, I've not tried it yet so will probably be looking for anything to chase it with if it tastes that bad.

  11. I was born in Americus, GA because we didn't have a hospital in Buena Vista. Americus is 9 miles from Plains, GA, home of Jimmy Carter.

    All my family except TeeTaa (a sister) and me still live in our little town pretty much w/in "yellin' distance" of Mama.
