Nobody waked and baked today???

I know thats right. lol

I am sorry you have all that to contend with Umbra... That is a lot. I am also glad you treat it quick. Do you have a nebulizer at home? Do what you know to do... get well, you can do it.

Dang Umbra,,sorrry to hear that Bro.My Grand Father had Asthma real bad. I had Open Heart Surgery bout 6 months ago. Take care of yourself my friend and watch your fat and sugar intake. Sugar is a real killer. Should have warnings like Ciggs.

Hey WH,
Last year my New Year's resolution was to cut my caffeine intake by 1/2 and sugar by 1/3. I did quite well. As to fat, been really good with that. My total cholesterol when I had my heart attack was 370, today it is 95. I have lost about 20 lbs and kept it off. I'm just going to rest a bit.

Yesser,,thats what ya have to do Umbra. I wish ya the best my Friend.

Good Morning MC

cold with high winds .....again

Get well soon umbra

You all are doing great, that is awesome Cubby. and you too Ozzy. That is really a lot of weight to lose... Good going guys.. Ok, fine, i will get on my bike...

Morning all. I also am waking and baking with some coffee and Satori. Another cold snowless day in the mountains. But at least it is clear and windless. Those of you with the sub-zero temps and wind chill....grandma says , "Stay in and BIU as necessary".

Umbra, sorry to hear you're feeling poorly, take care of yourself. I have some respiratory problems too from almost 35 years of cigarettes and 22 years of plumbing. I gave up the cigarettes over 10 years ago. The plumbing....well you get pretty used to that having a roof over your head and food on the table, so that will continue for at least a little while. I was sick last Dec and we made a nebulizer out of a small air compressor because the doc could not let his go and we were nowhere that I could rent one. I love living in the mountains, but I will say that we have to improvise fairly regularly.

Congrats to all you that have lost weight. That has always been a hard thing for me to do. I found cigarettes easier to avoid than pastries and rich pasta sauces. Way to go. Though, like giving up cigarettes, you feel so much better! I really think that is my goal rather than any efforts to actually prolong my life, I want the life I have left to live to be a quality life regardless of how long or short it is. When I get where I cannot do things or think anymore, someone can just shoot me and roll me into the river.

The 2 sisters may be up today. They are notoriously unpredictable and I do not believe they are coming until I see them. However, they are no problem and I do not do anything special for them. We just "adapt" when we go to each others houses.

Duck (or any other mechanic who knows Jeeps), I have some questions about low oil pressure in a Jeep....can you help me? My buddy Jack and I are going to keep the best one out of 2 Jeeps and sell the other. They are both Grand Cherokee Laredos, one a 96 and one a 98.

Have a great day everyone. Stay warm. Enjoy the fruits of your harvests. Look forward to all the rewards and good cheer the new year can bring! I luv ya all!

Morning my Friends. Cool and Sunny today in the Big D. Im ready to start my new Year out with a smile and a Bowl and a new House here at MC.
Umbra Im glad your feeling better Bro.
Man Im glad to see all my Friends are dropping pounds and getting healthier. Way to go guys and gals.
Like THG says. Its all about the quality of life,,not just Living that counts. I dont want to have anybody taking care of my Ace cause I cant. When that happens Im done. So since I aint in any rush to be done,,I had to make some Life Style changes.Course the Open Heart Surgery is an great weight loss program,,LOL,,dropped the weight right off my Ace. I wouldnt suggest that Diet,,but ifen ya aint carefull you too can lose weight with that Diet Program.
Hope ya get a good Jeep outta those THG.Anybody that thinks Mountain PPL aint smart,,are morons themselfs,,right THG?
Lets have a great day MC.

morning all---all that talk about weight gets me thinking i might think about a diet---heavier now than i ever have been---turn 50 this year---might be time to consider some healthy life choices---maybe a nooner more often---get into a walking regiment---eat more salad

I have found that chewing and eating slow will help lose weight,,mainly because you give your stomach time to tell your brain its full and you dont eat to much. Slow down on Red meat and Sugar and I promise you will lose weight. Beer also will pile the weight on you in a very short time. I lost weight just by not drinking beer so much. All I know is losing weight will make you feel 10 times better and improve your life. Diets are a bunch of crap. Put down tha freaken fork and dont eat so much. Its not as much what you eat sometimes as how much you eat. OK Doc weedhopper is done. Sorry,,got high and long winded.

i do agree wh---not so much what u eat but How Much u eat---4 egg omlette covered in holindaise, side of pancakes, few pieces of sour dough toast, some home fries, and a bloddy mary sounds pretty good right about now lol

Good Morning MC and Happy New Years
