I finished staging my house up north, to get ready to sell. It looks better than it ever did, almost hate to part with it. It was so much fun, though, going out shopping and buying new wall art and accessories. Oh well....the for sale ad goes in the paper today, so it will be interesting to see if we get anyone interested. We're trying to sell it ourselves, at least for a few weeks.

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Slept all afternoon, then had a great dinner out with a bunch of wonderful friends. It doesn't get any better!

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Talked to my daughter for two hours on the phone. She seldom sits still that long! Will be seeing her in a few days. Can't wait for hugs. ;D

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

I drove over to Spring Hill near Wickee Wachee today and met my former boss for lunch. She is here in FLA for 4 days visiting her daughter.
We ate at a greek restaurant on CR19 called Greek City Cafe......yummy....spanikopita and hummus with roasted red peppers, strawberry walnut and feta cheese salad with raspberry yogurt dressing and ,of course,baklava for dessert. It was all heavenly....wish that restaurant wasn't an hour and 20 minute drive. Maybe we can get then to open a store in TV. The place was spotless, with an open kitchen that was also spotless. :#1: :#1:

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Sounds so yummy, Beady. It would be nice to have another Greek restaurant in town. I do like Takis but another choice would be welcomed.

BTW, gf...even though you had a nice time today with your former boss, you missed out on a great get together at Crispers with HB, Sidney, Donna, John, F16, DickY, Sam, Chels, Rok, and ME! Missed you!

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

OH NO!!!!!

:cus: not ANOTHER great get together without me!!!! Arggggggggggg! I cant take much more of this!!!

Seriously, I think its really wonderful that all the TOTV peeps get together as often as possible. Would this happen at home? NOT!!!! Wait for me guys I'm hurrying as fast as i can! crap

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

When are you coming back, Nonie? Would love another get together with you.

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

I know Bright is was a hard choice lunch with my TV buddies or with my former boss(who I love, and miss). Afraid Cheryl won the honor of seeing me... :barf: ...sorry to have missed the party.

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Great fun today with the gang. I believe it came together in chat, so if any of you missed out -- you must visit chat more often! :welcome:

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

I would love to know how you gals are managing to keep your girlish figures with all this eating out. ??? Please, share your secrets. 024

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Good heavens why do you think we are searching for caftans.....cause we are eating out so much...no girlish figure here....speaking for myself of course.

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

I'm looking for a girlish figure again...maybe not perfect but one I can live with...

It's been a long, arduous trek since last February and I'm still 13 pounds shy of where I have set my goal. Even when I reach my goal, I still won't have the girlish figure I had when I was younger but I'll be happy.

What did I do for myself today? I checked out the nutritional information on line about Crisper's food and planned what I would eat before I got there. I stuck to my daily caloric intake...that made this a good day!

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Bravo Bright...can you bottle some of your resolve and share it with me... I have no will power.

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Girlish figure? Girlish figure? I don't need no stinking girlish figure!

Ok that was a bad impression of Cheech & Chong. :(

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

You know what I love most about TOTV? We have every single possible variation of personality, and it is so interesting to hear different viewpoints on every topic.

Bright, this is important to you, good going girl. :#1:

Chels, I don't need no stinking girlish figure either! :-*

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Well, I certainly don't think we have boyish figures. So what are the other options??!!

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Volumptious sounds good! ;D

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

As Tony said earlier..... "Nonie, Nonie, Nonie."

You are soooooooooooooooooo funny. :#1:

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Thanks Nonie! Its perfect! Volumptious gets my vote! :bigthumbsup: :#1: We are volumptious, but so very sumptuous!!

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Nonie...volumptious is my new mantra...okay girls...let us all be Volumptious. 040 040 :clap2: :clap2: I'll drink to that :beer2:

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

And now we present to you.............THE VOLUMPTIOUS KAZOOERS :bigthumbsup:

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Shucks http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/h...on/4_14_61.gif I don't want a girlish figure anymore...

I want to be volumptious, too...http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/h...d_hat_dame.gif

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Aww Bright,

You can be valuptious with us ,but personally I would rather have the girlish figure, even the boyish figure!! Trade ya!

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

OMG, I massacred the spelling of volumptuous too. Glad you all knew what the heck I was talking about. Hard to believe but I was an A student in spelling. :redface:

Anyway back to the title of this thread!

Today I layed down with my 4 yr. old grandaughter to take a nap. Just before she fell asleep she wispered in my ear " grammie, I love you so much".

So now Im going to be asking others in this forum How do you leave the grandkids? And just a few months ago I was giving advice to others telling them, you gotta live your life, blah blah blah. This advice sure is comming back to haunt me. :'(

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Oh Nonie, I so identify. When my Granddaughter lost a Great grandparent, the somberness of the occasion made an impression on her. A week after the funeral she took my face in both her little 5 year old hands and said "Grammie, I love you so much. When you die I'm going to put flowers on you everyday." I laughed at her sweet words, kissed her and fervently wished that she be quite old when this little scenario takes place!

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Sam,

I appreciate your empathy, this is very tough! no more live for yourself talk out of me! I guess Im not as strong as I thought I was.

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Nonie, the grands will visit. Mine visits for 3 weeks in the summer and several times during the rest of the year. I also go back to Pa 3-4 x per year to see her. You'll be fine. They also grow up and don't need you as much.

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

I spent a glorious day with my 3 year old grandson today...in fact, he spent the night last night. We played at the park, drank milk shakes at Johnny Rockets, and read books at Barnes & Noble. We played "cars" and "airplanes" with his new books, put together jigsaw puzzles, watched cartoons, played peek a boo, swatted flies that got into the house, and tickled each other while laughing all the while.

It was a day to remember!

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Talked to my Mom up in Michigan and she told me that she and my Dad were called today by Honor Flight and will be flying to Washington DC on 7/26, all expenses paid, to see their WWII Memorial. They are both Veterans of WWII...My Dad in the Army and my Mom a WAVE (Navy) I cried...and am still crying...that at ages 90 and 86, they are going to get to see and experience this beautiful Memorial. I read about this program in The Parade magazine in the Sunday Daily Sun a year or so ago and got all the information and got them registered...with the help of my sister up in Michigan. If you want to see what this wonderful organization does, go to www.honorflight.org...and while you're there, send in a donation so that they can continue to honor our country's heros who gave so much (some gave ALL) for our freedom. 040 I am sooooo happy for them. GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

What a wonderful honor JKP. My best to your parents! My inlaws are the same age and I know how thrilled they would be if it were them. Tell your mom and dad congratulations and I hope they have a memorable experience...which I'm sure they will.

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

One of our grandsons is graduating from high school this weekend. Its hard to believe he is grown up and will be off to college this fall. I found a picture of him when he was a baby, sitting in the bathtub with his play toys, and I got pretty misty eyed. He's grown into such a nice young man. I feel pretty lucky!

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Watered my flowers, went to my mah Jongg lesson, ate lunch with a special friend .
Going to finish the day spent doing my favorite thing ....beading. 040 040

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Went to KB's for brunch with a good friend and ate my whole day's calories at one sitting! Then met up with 11 other old and new friends for dinner. It was a memorable day...one I enjoyed very much!

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Finally took the golf cart all the way up to Wal-Mart on 466! :o And bought two beautiful Hidden Lily plants and then had to try and figure out how to get them home. Hahaha!

It was an adventure. :o

Re: What One Good Thing Did You Do For Yourself Today?
 

Just got back from an annual 4 day trip to Granville Ohio where my son-in-laws family lives. I was with my daughter, son-in-law and 2 grandkids. They have a wonderful 4th of July parade and celebration. My daughter ran in the Firecracker 5 race. Great time!

I am excited b/c I have rented a home in TV for the months of September and October. The really hard part will be leaving my family. I am also coming to TV for 5 days in August from the 14th to the 18th so I can join the TOTV folks at Crispers on the 15th. It sounds like I can count on all of you to help me stay brave without my family. :o This is really out of character for me, striking out on my own, but I know it is the right thing to do.
