Good morning.
Looks like the extreme heat and humidity is going to let up a bit today but I still need to run out there in a few minutes to do my outside chores. Coffee first, please.
Nothing much on the agenda except for the basic stuff.
Wishing all an angst-free day.

Quick mom update:
Surgeon called at 4:00pm yesterday to tell me she was out of surgery. I didn't know she was in surgery!
Basically, they did 7 hours of surgery to repair perforations in the intestines that were allowing air and stool to leak into the belly areas.
They cleaned out everything, sewed up the holes they could, took 2 feet out of her intestine and now she's in ICU for observation.
Her white blood cell count is high from infection in the stomach and also a UTI that has never cleared up.
They are watching her closely as they may have to go in and remove the mesh from a previous hernia if it gets infected.
I feel like I'm crawling out of my skin! So restless and agitated. My brother is going up tomorrow and I'll be up this weekend.
We both talked to her Tuesday night and she sounded wonderful. No clue how we go from that to 7-hour surgery and ICU.
I did take a 3 month leave of absence from WW and have counseling tonight. So I'm tryingto take care of myself.
Sorry for the downer!

I'm in. Good morning.
I'll take a little less heat today. I notice that I always weigh less midweek and it's a real crap shoot as to whether or not that translates to my Monday WI. I've considered changing WI days but, realize that's a fool's errand. Today's loss will show up a week from this coming Monday lol.
A typical Thursday on tap here.
Everyone have a great day!
(( Heather ))

Good morning to all! hpeterson1951, I'm sure you were shocked to hear about the newest surgery with your mom. I hope this latest surgery helps her. I think it's great you're taking a break from WW and putting yourself first. Good luck! DH left today for a long weekend. That means I have a few days to myself. I'm meeting 2 friends today to see "Crazy Rich Asians". I also have some gift coupons to use during my birthday month so I should stop at the mall today or tomorrow. August is almost finished! Going back to the coffee pot. Hope everyone has a great day! |

hpeterson1951, sending you much love and positive energy. Hang in there. Keep taking care of you. linda72, yea for time with friends! I want to see that movie. It was actually cold here this morning! It was only 62 when I left the house at 6:30! It's supposed to be a great day. We are heading to the Purdue vs. Northwestern football game tonight. Our chef son is coming up from Indy to go with us! It should be fun since we rarely have night games here! WI later today. Not sure where I will be, but it is what it is! Oh, I still haven't been able to take that stupid test for my master's degree. I might try to start it this afternoon since my work calendar is clear at the moment. *sigh* I hope you all have a GREAT day! Positive energy to all!

{{{ hpeterson1951}}}... shocking news, to be sure. Prayers going up for all of you... neen, good luck with that test. I had to do several when returning to school. I guess TODAY's standards have dropped to the point where no one believes "grades" any more. doordie50, good luck at weigh-in. linda72, have fun at the movie and the mall! fullmahina, I'm hoping temps (or at least the heat index) will moderate around here. |

Good morning, everyone! neen, I wish we had your weather. Today is another sunny hot day. It's hard to gather the motivation to exercise outside. Yesterday I did take my parrot outside. Poor guy was panting as I weeded the herb garden, so we went back inside as soon as I was done. I have been good with my eating most times of the day lately, but struggle with super hunger in the mid afternoons. I have to either eat more filling lunches or plan better afternoon snacks. Sometimes my "snacks" add up to more calories than my dinners. |

Good morning. hpeterson1951, I'm sorry for the latest turn in your mother's condition. I hope she improves now. linda72, nice to have some time to yourself and plans for enjoying it. I don't know what the heck the weather is going to do today; guess I'll tune into the news soon to find out. The temperature right now is a bit higher than it's been in the early mornings: 65° vs. 62°. Perhaps we won't have a lot of heat today. I'll be having lunch with a friend. I may make a run this morning to buy some milk. Everyone have a great day and KOKO. |

hpeterson1951 , sorry to hear about your Mom's surgery and hoping that this latest development will lead to a successful solution to her health issues. Take care of yourself! neen , good luck with that exam---just a little bump in the road and after you're done with it you'll be on your way again. Annoying, though, to say the least. Steamy out there, done with outside stuff for now and will put off garden work until tomorrow when we are due for a break in the weather including some nice rain. I am so ready for Fall, even if it means the onslaught of Pumpkin Spice. I actually LIKE pumpkin spice but not to the extent that happens every year at this time. Sometimes you have to draw the line:
