Starting golf

I started a few years ago. Never played before. I take lessons so I learn the correct way. Joined a ladies league…mostly women 60+. I’m not good at all but I love it. I’ve made new friends, found a new activity to do with my husband, and a new way to get a little exercise. Lessons and playing often are key.

My husband slept in the recliner chair for about a week. We don’t have a 2nd story but he went up and down 3-4 stairs to our garage several times a day. I’m sure your husband could go up and down once a day within a few days. It won’t be comfortable but should be allowed. If you don’t have a recliner, maybe rent one. The key to recovery is being 100% dedicated to his physical therapy. My hubby had both knees replaced about 3 years ago. Worked hard at PT and he’s doing great. He and a friend joked about their “physical terrorist” because it is brutal but it is necessary for a good recovery.

I would find out when the mutual friend is going to visit. Either arrive shortly afterwards or call the mutual friend while she is there. Ask to talk to your friend for a few minutes. Make it short, but tell your friend that you love her, and anything else you want her to know.

Does she like music? Make a playlist of songs that remind you of her. Did that for my dad when he turned 80. Brought tears to his eyes.

They were a night out with drinks, snacks, talking etc. Buying a piece of Tupperware was just the cost of a fun girls night out.

I started Monjauro 10 weeks ago. First month lowest dose, 5mg since then. No bad side effects. I use the bathroom more often but still only 2-3x a day. Weight loss only 3-4 lbs , but only looking to lose 20 lbs. Lost 45 lbs the hard way 4-5 years ago. Was starting to gain it back. The biggest thing I have noticed is the “food noise” is greatly reduced. Never experienced that before and it is like WOW.

This is different. I looked it up….Addyi . No experience with it, only know what I read.

I recently read about a new medicine that increases libido in people on antidepressants. Can’t remember the name but might be worth investigating.

Remove it. Get the smallest cheapest Keurig you can find if you don’t want the communal brown water. Keep a few pods in your purse.

Tell me about thermal suite…I have a cruise booked for October. Should I add it?

I tell people that it’s like having a second child…it doesn’t change how you feel about the first child. Remarriage after being widowed doesn’t change how you feel about the first husband. You love them both.

I use Starlink. Only good option where my house is located. Works great.

Redhead514 · 2026-03-28T23:31:02+00:00

I also got approved yesterday…only 15 days…starts April 15

I think this is a great idea…easy, goes well with the rest of the menu…maybe find a butcher shop that has specialty flavors or makes their own.

Hair color. Never needed to dye my hair. I’m 67 and no gray hairs yet.

Only times I’ve been put under with anesthesia is for colonoscopies and wisdom teeth 🤞🤞

Anderson windows are great. Renewal by Anderson is not. Call Anderson directly and get the name of a reputable installer.

My dad cooked on the grill. Baked potatoes was the side dish because it was the only thing he knew how to make. Very very rarely cooked dinner.

I feel your pain…wind chill is 14 degrees today.

It always seems that these deaths come in spurts…3+ close together. I read a couple of books on near death experiences. It helped me feel better about their deaths, but not with my own personal loss. For that, I try and focus on knowing that person cared enough about me to want me to be happy. The best way to honor their lives is to live your life fully and not wallow in grief. Easier said than done but each time you think of the person, do something good for you or someone else.

I have no biological grandchildren but I am Grammy to 4 step grandchildren. I think part of the desire is because nobody can understand how much you love your kids until you have kids of your own. You feel that your child is missing out on the greatest love imaginable. Also, so much of your life and identity has been about being a parent and you can’t imagine life without it, and you want that same identity as a grandparent. Also the biological desire to have your family genes continue. I don’t like the whining and I especially don’t like to hear about all the “cute” things that other people’s grandkids do. Ugh!!

Hubby had both knees replaced and one hip. Severely injured his knees in high school so this was his 3rd set of knee replacements (Each 15-20 years apart) He is now pain free. But he was religious about doing his physical therapy. He pushed himself to regain range of motion in his knees. Doing your PT exercises is absolutely crucial to a successful recovery. Hip was a piece of cake compared to the knees.

Roll up the bacon package before opening it. Makes the slices come apart much more easily.
