I've had those insomnia nights too. So does my veterinarian. I often fall asleep watching TV or in front of my laptop.

Re: Olympic Chat Party
Hope everyone is doing well tonite....just about to call it a day. I think that I've finally almost come down from the ferris wheel that was the last week! Hubby and I went to our favorite mom and pop Italian restaurant for supper tonite....and it was devine! Their lasagna is ALWAYS excellent and the chicken marsala is to die for! Tonite did not disappoint. We asked if they could split both meals, which they were happy to do, so we actually each had 2 entrees! Their meals come with unlimited tureen of minestrone soup (homemade--wonderful!) and salad with their own dressing. The entrees are huge, so splitting the two was still more than I needed to eat, so brought the rest home for lunch tomorrow!!
I've finally begun to work on one of the Alaska quilt purchases I got on our cruise last summer! This one has 9 8" moose appliques and various pine trees appliqued on the sashing. I'll post a photo when it is finished. I love moose, so this is intriguing!
Well, it's about time for me to turn into a pumpkin....or at least start the transformation! lol.
Sweet dreams to all the sisters!!
Hugs...😘You lead an interesting and seemingly fabulous life. Enjoy every bit of it (as I know you do).
Hi, Annie....I hope you are well and keeping busy.
I got a smile from your comment above. I would call our life very simple and rather plain (just like we are!)...but enjoyable overall. For all of that, I am most grateful.
My motto (most of the time!) is; Live simply, live well, do small things with great love.

Re: Olympic Chat Party
Evening Sisters...
First let me say thank you to all that have been sending prayers for my MIL, It is greatly appreciated.
The update from today is...She did not have a stroke or a heart attack that can be seen. Her pneumonia is the culprit for this episode which has done irreversible damage to her lungs which were already damaged. There is no further treatment to heal them and at this point she is extremely weak and they her prognosis is terminal and they are calling for Hospice. She has a DNR so whatever they will do now will be for her comfort care. She was on a bipap machine (a noninvasive ventilator) but they have taken her off that and she is on nasal oxygen cranked up higher than high. She for the most part has her right mind but goes off a bit when her oxygen level isn't at a normal place. So if she makes it through tonight she will be moved to a Hospice Care facility. The doctors don't have a time line so it is all up to a higher power and her will to go on.
Again thank you all for your prayers. How wonderful to know that you are all out there in good times and not so good times.
HUGS.
Ah, it is. It's the first day of autumn! A time for hot chocolatety mornings, and toasting marshmallow evenings, as best of all, leaping into *leaves*!

What a special lady Mother Theresa was. I think of her often.

Re: Olympic Chat Party
Evening Everyone.
Sorry for my absence but it has been a hectic couple days here. As I posted a couple days ago my MIL was back in the hospital. After some initial test were back the results are that it does not appear that she had another stroke. She did have a mild heart attack and she has pneumonia. She had been unresponsive until late on Saturday night when she She was on oxygen at night and in the day when needed. We are not sure if her oxygen fell off during sleep or if she was testing to see how long she could go without it. Then yesterday morning after the doctor came in she had an episode of breathing trouble and severe pain between her shoulders. They gave her pain meds and steroids and she slept most of the day. Then last night she apparently had a really bad night and was in quite a lot of pain. They have not determined the cause of the pain. When the doctor came in this morning my sister in law asked if her other children should come and he said that my MIL was weak but there was no way to tell what will come in the days ahead but it may be a good idea to have them come. She is awake and seems to understand when you ask her things she just can't talk because of the oxygen she is on.
So hubby and his sister left about noon to head down there. They haven't gotten there yet and there has been no new news as yet.
Thank you for your continued prayers and thoughts.
I will not post any news tonight because I am tired and waiting for hubby to call. i will see you all in the morning.
Hugs my dear friends.
So sorry to hear that your MIL is in pain and things are a bit sketchy, CEK. Keeping her and your family in my thoughts and prayers....wishing all the best to her for a speedy recovery. So frustrating when they can't determine what the situation is. (((HUGS)))
Thank you for your prayers Jet...Things are not good now...They are calling in Hospice as her lungs are failing and no medical treatment for them. The pneumonia pushed them over the edge.
I posted a little blurb on the board a minute ago..
HUGS

Sharna apparently spoke a bit about the format in one of her instagram stories or some such. I didn't see it first hand, but it is quoted on the Pure site. According to that, there will be two eliminations at the end of the first evening. Viewers will be able to vote online during the show, right from the start of it. If you've voted for one of the earlier pairs, you will be able to change your vote, if you like the performance of a later pairing better. Question is (in my mind...), how phone voting comes into it.
I usually can't sleep during the day. Once I am up, I am up. LOL
I read the stuff over at Pure (thanks). It sure sounds strange and the West coast, how in the world is that going to work? I have a feeling this is going to be a crazy season. LOL
Twins with you on that I don't nap during the day but at night in front of the tv is another story especially with my heating pad...LOL
Hope you get a better nights rest tonight Luv...
HUGS
