Yearly Exam

YIKES!! I shrunk an inch and gained 5 lbs since last year. No wonder my clothes are super snug. Since I shrunk an inch it was like I gained 10 lbs. Mumus and sweat pants are my next daily wear clothing apparel. I will wear the mumus on Sunday and sweat pants or maybe just knits with elastic waistbands during the week.

That is not the way it is going to be! First, I will enjoy a fun eating frenzy with my sisters next weekend and then I will get serious about growing taller (can you do that???) and getting rid of the 5 lbs or if I can't grow taller shoot for 10 lbs. I am just going to cut out so many of the bad eating choices and back to the regular exercise.

That is all I have to say. Just wanted to vent for a few minutes. I am looking forward to the upcoming visit.

Love you sisters,

Large sister Lori

  1. Well, keep shrinking and you'll be 4'10 like mom when you in your late 80s. You do the math on the 5 lbs x however inches that is.
    We're busy doing 'things' today. It's the first day it hasn't rained for a very long time. We even rode our scooters (yes, Dan had to have one too!) just in the neighborhood though - I'm still practicing. I'm getting more confident with each little ride.
    Susie is in Jamacia - Jamacia, New York, that is! She called me a little while ago and sounds like they are having a blast - left early Friday and spent this morning walking NYC. They will be home Tuesday, just in time for her to get ready for our trip on Friday. Diane, maybe your schedule has changed and you could still jump on an airplane and join us. It would be great if you could.

    Lori, you don't know this but we're having a Halloween party on Saturday, Oct. 31. I didn't invite you because I knew you just wouldn't come! Ha! Anyway, it should be fun. Susie and her family, some of dan's kids, Sarah and Aiden, a few folks from my work and a few neighbors. Hopefully, Di, you can come - bring whoever will come. We started out thinking we'd just do a "Yippeee the Deck is Finished" party but now has turned into this.

    Please send good vibes, thoughts, prayers for my friend Jackie at work who I have been telling you about. After one of her first series of chemo and scans, her tumor shrunk 18% but this last scan showed that it had grown 17%. Obviously, she is troubled.

    Sorry the typing is full of typos - gotta get back outside to help danny boy.

    Love you all sissies!

  2. Keep shrinking and you will be as short as me. Though I shrunk a half inch over the last five years. I am on track for being 4'11" in my 80's. I like your wardrobe plan. Except I would skip the mumus. Too dressy. Sweat pants all day every day for me.

    It sounds like fun, but I still don't see it happening for this trip.

    I'm keeping the 31st fairly open for your party Liz. I do go to trick or treat with all the grandkids, so I make a made dash from Ben's to Jim's or vice versa. I forget where I am supposed to start out this year. But I imagine that is on Friday? I better check that out.

    Sounds like Susie is having a great time. Never heard of Jamaica, NY. I bet the change of seasons if fun to see in NYC.

    I am so sorry to hear about Jackie. I will send good vibe her way.

    Love you all!
