When Not so Good turns Into Wondeful.

First of all I so appreciate all the wonderful comments I recieved,
I read them all, this weekend was so busy,
and odd that I did not get a chance to return any comments.
Just know you all have helped me immensely,
................
I had a great few days, I had one oops on Friday evening,
I think it was because I had not eaten enough .
so I increased things on Saturday,
There are two things I hate to do,
clothes shopping and shoe shopping,
but hubby and I managed to get good shoes with proper arches,
and I got a couple blouses for a wedding in January.
One is 4 sizes smaller,
once we got back home,
I needed a nap, very important I stay on a shedule with my Cataplexy,
and Hubby took off. He went looking for a treadmill for me.
This is how serious I am about this.
He came home, he could not find anything under 829.00, 
so We both thought that was it for that idea.
In the middle of the night I got on Kijiji,
and  to make a  long story short,
I have the best treadmill I have imagined having,
and drumroll please,
one hundred dollars.
Can you believe it, talk about luck.
It was out in the fancy area of town,
what a house, what a nice lady, and what lovely neighbors they had.
they had just moved in and had not met any of their neighbors yet,
and a man with two boys came over and helped my hubby.
They were so nice,
When we got back home here
Two of our neighbors,
helped hubby get it into the house and all setup.
Whoooo Hooooo, makes me extremely happy.
Have you ever had jello legs,
I can say I have,
and that is exciting.
Hubby was even walking on it tonight.
so maybe he will get in on this too,
healthier lifestyles.
............
Will go for now, I have a Doctors appointment in the am
so off to sleep.
Lrt's Have Our Best Days Ever!

  4. Cinner......I am so thrilled for you. I really feel like once we accept ourselves for who we are....that the cards start falling into place and we can do what we choose instead of letting life choose for us. You are so on the right track and congrats on the super duper find. I love finding deals like that....it is always such a good feeling to save $$$$$$$.
    More success and have a great week, The Olde Bagg

  5. Yay, Cinner!! You had a great weekend! Let me know how the treadmill works out for you. I'm going to keep my eyes open for yard sales now. LOL With winter approaching, I just resigned myself to walk in a mall somewhere, but how much more convenient to have a treadmill at home. I just didn't want to pay $600+ for one ...

  6. I never head of this website before but I'll be checking it out. What a GREAT price you got on the treadmill. Way to go.

    I hope you enjoy the treadmill. Start slow and get used to it. I watch tv when I'm on my treadmill (turned up really loud so I can hear it-- I'm sure the neighbors love it :-) to keep me going-- or movies with really good soundtracks.

    ENJOY! xo jj

  7. Joanna, I was on it twice yesterday, I love it, I get out of breath pretty quick, but it will come. If they have that site down there, you have to check it out. they even give away free things...some of which are very nice. I have only bought the treadmill, my sister swears by it.
    I watched my soap opera today while I used mine. take care, have a great week.

  10. Bernie, can you believe the deal. if you need anything that is the place to look. after saving 2200 I could be a walking advertisement for it.
    Did you enjoy Friday and Saturday, was cold this am with the rain, but it sure was nice to have the hot days. Hope you and Fallon are having fun. hugs.

  11. Birdie, I too love a happy ending, and I was very happy using it, when we got home from buying it, the lady we bought it from emailed to say she found the manual. she wanted my address so she could put that in the mail. I told my neighbors when they helped get it in here That in six months I would be walking by their homes and they would not know whom the goodlooking babe was. we all had a good chuckle. have a great day Birdie, Cinner hugs being sent to you

  17. Hi Cathy, so excited to have you visit. I am glad you feel inspired...when I come to yours I want to pick up my paints. I have to admit I just recently have really stepped up to the plate with this. So glad to have you come along for the ride or the walk...lol. I worked in management for 25 years, some jobs more stressful than others...the best advice I can give you is to leave work at the door when you enter your home....I know that is hard to do....one day I became ill, soon after had a couple of TIA'S(So they thought at the time)It turns out to be severe Cataplexy...the thing is
    one day we all have a moment and I learned to let the stress go. I now live for today...every day is that way. I try to be awake as many hours as I can. to always take time for me even if it is just ten minutes...worry is like a rocking chair, you can do it for hours, but you get nowhere. the great thing is you know where your stress is coming from. I had to reinvent myself when I stopped working, I did not know whom I was without my job.....It took awhile for me to adjust....sorry I am going on and on...If I can help at all, I will be here, hopefully we can all do this together. Heres to improving our health....that was with a raised bottle of water. Cheers. Good luck. Pretend each day is your very best, soon it will be...I really believe that. take care.

  18. Dee, I am so excited to know you are feeling inspired. so many of the blogs I follow have inspired me to keep going, get honest, so supportive, that is what I love the best....I woke up last night in the middle of the night and I thought maybe I should go on the treadmill, but my sore muscles reminded me to take it easy....so that is a first for me. Are you walking Dee? I will support you all the way.
    I hope you have a terrific day tomorrow, you are first remember that...take care, hugs.

  19. Anne, do I want to race, ha, in a year. Went for lunch with my elderly friend whom is 83. She had her cane. I had mine. We parked a block away from the bistro..we both made it, she says I let her win....a week ago I could not walk more than two steps with my back. so I am thrilled with my progress, did 8 minutes yesterday and today on the treadmill...Where did the muscles in my ass suddenly come from....lol. thanks Anne for all the motivation I get from you. Hugs.
