I can almost feel the cold, sitting on the Church bench, Easter Sunday, with our bare legs--all dressed up with a new short dress, coat and white gloves. It seems like it was always cold Easter weekend- To-day we have a wet day again---
Its is a treat to-day to be home. Yesterday I was getting the summer tires back on-- No-one in the dealership wore a mask--just me!--I found that odd-- Himself was not good when I returned home--His Dementia (or whatever it is)- is very difficult to deal with some days--I went for a long walk and that seemed to give me more patience--
I must tell you ---The weight is -----Lord love a Duck!-- from 217 a million years ago----to 180.5 --- It is coming down! --- Whenever I reach into the 170's I will go in for a blood pressure check--- I do not want to go on blood pressure medication, if I can avoid it!
Happy Easter-Happy Spring----Happy happy Everything-----and look for that Easter Rabbit!
I remember Easter being cold, too. Looks like that ‘tradition’ continues.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that Himself didn’t have a good . . . and obviously, that means you had a trying day, too. Glad you got out for a walk to recharge.
Good job on the weight release! Quite an accomplishment.
Blessed Maundy Thursday.

Adorable picture!
ReplyDeleteI remember the new Easter hat, dress, and later on gloves. Yes, it was always cold or sure seemed that way.
The dementia situation is challenging. Glad you got out and away for a bit.
Good work on the weight. We'll all keep plugging away..
Enjoy your day.. be well and safe..
Hugs
It must have been cold for all of us who grew up in the North. We had new hats with elastic under the chin to make them stay on, white gloves and white shoes . . . you could where white shoes before Easter according to my Mother. Got to go my "Sadie" is here for cleaning while Al is at Physical Therapy. Trying to get the floor mopped today.
ReplyDeleteWhy does no one tell you what Himself has yet! Necessary information when extra help is needed at some point. The medical profession does not seem to want people to be comfortable, they like your life to be constantly on hold…than chide you for not getting things going sooner…. Yes, I remember the Easter clothes, going to church suddenly because of this holiday, but not other days. Not a thing anymore. Take care of yourself!
ReplyDeleteGreat weight report -- keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteAwesome job on the weight lost.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe no one has told you what is wrong with himself and how you can help him. That is horrible.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane. I had forgotten about most of that stuff. The hat, shoes, gloves, and the purse (made me feel so grown up now I hate to carry a purse - might be because there is a lot in my purse now a days!!!)
I hope everyone has a Happy Easter
CONGRATULATIONS on your loss. Soon you will be into the 170s! Good idea to get off BP meds! My doc wants me to continue mine cuz it is also a liver protectant.
ReplyDeleteWe are wearing heavy winter clothes again in MN...and it is snowing!
Some days spring seems a long time coming. Sigh...{{{HUGS}}}
Yes, Manitoba got the snow too-- Lynda
DeleteAmazing weight loss!!! CONGRATULATIONS! (sorry, I was out of the Internet reach).
ReplyDeleteHi Patricia--It took a long time to get it in my head that I could do this!--Lynda
DeleteYou have been doing very well with the weight this year. So proud of you. Congratulations on all these little changes over the years paying off!
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter!
Oh Barb--Now all my clothes are way too big-- Lynda
DeleteDoing great with the weight. Congrats. I remember to Easter bonnet. Have hated hats since and only put my hood up when walking the dog in the winter when it's really bad out. Maybe you can get someone to look at himself in the city wear there are more specialists like Sudbury or something. Hope the dogs stay safe when you're out but you do need your walks etc for your sanity!
ReplyDeleteFunny--to-day he had a normal day--Himself I mean--Its a crazy disease-- makes me cry when he gets all weird--Lynda
DeleteI always looked forward to Easter when I was little. We would get a new dress and of course my basket with lots of candy.
ReplyDeleteThat picture is so awesome. Great job on the weight loss.
Yes, new clothing--new coats and hats--- and Spring weather--to look forward to-Lynda
DeleteMy Mother made most of my cloths, she was really good at it. There was always something new for Easter, usually because I out grew the previous one.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a very Happy Easter and that you get to spend some time with your family.
