Well the weekend is winding down quickly and there is only a few more days until Thanksgiving. I have so many wonderful memories of Sarge cooking the turkey. He loved to do it and watch some sports stuff in the kitchen. I'm going to the Fern House, I think I already told you that. Last year Sarge and I went there and it was so nice. I remember the chef was hospitalized and the duck cooked the meal for 300+ people. That apple didn't fall far from the tree.
Yesterday I lost five bucks at canasta. It is a really nice game though and I had a good time. We had a nice lunch first too.
Don't think it's going to be warm enough to swim again. This is starting to tick me off a tad. I feel so much better when I can go in the pool. Walking is fine but not nearly as good feeling on my legs and arms. Maybe soon.
Oh, and another thing, as my arms are getting smaller I getting some real bat wings. Now that's attractive. Buggers. And I don't know of anything you can do for that either. Well I do have one friend that had surgery on hers but I'm not going there. There are some exercises I found online and I will try them but loose skin is just that, loose skin. Well I'm not going to let it get me down. I'm still losing and I plan on continuing my journey.
Things like that are an annoyance but certainly not a reason to stop getting healthier and losing weight. Onward we march! Have a lovely Sunday. I will too...
ReplyDeleteSweet story about the duck cooking the Thanksgiving dinner. I remember you posting about it and funny I was just thinking about it the other day.
Have a lovely Sunday too !
The Square Ones say woof !
cheers, parsnip
I remember you posting about the Duck cooking dinner last year. :) Hope you have a lovely dinner this year and I'm glad to hear you're not giving up on getting healthier and slimmer. :)
ReplyDeleteYou are an inspiration.
ReplyDeleteI met a lady once that said she used a hand held roller massager, and rolled her batwings away. The friction in the layers of skin caused the blood flow to increase, and that increased the collagen formation. I have read something that supports that so, maybe when you can't swim you can roller, your wings???

ReplyDeleteWhich reminds me, I've been slacking on using my hand weights. Bugger.
ReplyDeleteI had a feeling you'd be having Thanksgiving with Chuck and Fern House. Good for you. They are such a blessing to so many, I know. Hopefully, the chef is healthy and Chuck won't have to do all of the cooking!
Have a lovely day. It;s chilly here, but I won't be swimming anyway. :)
Big hugs xoxo
I just noticed I;m showing up as Sylvester. Where the heck is Sylvester? duhr.
ReplyDeleteHey, Barb...Sylvester is just up the road from you. I show up as Dahlonega, which is also not correct.
ReplyDeleteFlabby skin...we all have some. Oh yes.
Hope your day warms up. Big hugs, honey...
Ciao!!!
ReplyDeleteI got the photos of Sarge cooking the turkey...it's a great gift for me!
Have a lovely Sunday...mine is going to be happy: dinner with the family, here! We order a big pizza, and I bake a big focaccia!!!!
Big hugs!!!
Thanksgiving with your son and friends sounds great to me. Charlie will be with you on Thanksgiving. His spirit will be with you all.
ReplyDeleteWhat bat wings? The fact that you have lost that much weight and continue with your journey, the hell with the bat wings. You look great to me.
Well I'll sit and enjoy my football games today. You, my fabulous friend of mine enjoy your Sunday. See you later.

I don't want to talk about flabby skin. I'm just saying. I still say thin is way better so I'll take that flabby skin.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you'll have a wonderful time on Thanksgiving with the Duck. He'll appreciate you being there. I'm guessing Sarge will be there too. Yep, I'm pretty sure of it.
Have a terrific day honey. Big hugs. :)
Bee, When I think of Sarge and you together, I think of you laughing, really enjoying life. You both did well raising Duck. I have decided if I get sagging in my arms, I'll wear tight sleeves. LOL. xoxo, Susie
ReplyDeleteI somehow remember that the Duck had a culinary background. Is he cooking anything this year? Or is it up to the chef? We haven't decided what we'll do yet. I'll decide at the last minute.
ReplyDeletesorry you're not swimming. I know you enjoy it so...
Too bad the pool isn't an indoor pool. Is there one nearby that you can use for days where its cold, or storming?
ReplyDeleteAgree about the pool. nothing feels as good, or is as easy on the joints.
