I Will Leave You With This

I've been on myLot for two years, and before that on Bubblews until it crashed and folded. Most of you know me quite well.
So, what do you know about me, and I'll tell you what you don't know. This should be fun.
Now, I'm going to get off the computer, relax my back for a little bit before I start work on Thread of Evidence. My notifications are finished for the time being. I'll check back when my brain is nothing but mush. Have a great day. What are your plans for today?
Thanks for reading.
Picture is my family two months before my mother passed in 2015 for their 63rd wedding anniversary. Edit: I didn't expect it to be sideways.

I know you are a woman of God, a Christian.
I know you love Green Bay Packers.
I know you have lost a lot of weight and are on a new diet.
I know you have bad knees but swim daily and sometimes work out.
Yes I remember you from bubblews.

I must have met/discovered you on Bubblews. I know that you have had many personal trials but your soul is sweet not bitter. You are an inspiration to many. You love God, and the Packers, in that order. You have the discipline to stick to a new, successful eating plan.

Yes, I've had a lot of trials. Most of them with my older son. Thank you for your summation. I do love God first and the Pack, well not exactly second. My family comes next after God. I'm working on the eating plan. It does take a lot of discipline.

i think it's because mylot also has a "height limit" when it comes to pictures, in addition to file size and file type.
what i remember about you from you posts here is that you were in the navy and was stationed in guam. if i may ask, would you serve again?

@just4him I had no special occasion, but my husband asked for a few things that require a long time in the kitchen. I made figs preserve, small custard tarts, pickled onions and cucumbers. I still have to make an apple strudel, I will do today. I cannot believe how skinny my husband is, he eats a lot more than I do.

That is a very good photo of you and your family!
I hope you were very productive working on your new book... (Okay, I do have a question... how do you know when your brain has turned to mush? Please don't tell me you can tell when it starts dripping on your shirt
)
Uhhh... would you like me to send you a little tutorial that explains how to stop photos from showing up on myLot sideways? I've already written one for that as well as a slew of other tutorials I offer to people when I realize they're having some computer/phone/tablet problem. I'd be happy to help you, Dearheart.

@just4him Yeah, I remember giving my condolences when your dad passed away, Dearheart.
Okay, I will stick the tutorial into a pm to you.
Oh, good! I'm glad you got what you were working on finished before you needed a break.

That would be helpful.
I know my brain is mush when I'm too exhausted to think any longer. I need to give it a break. Yesterday was good. It didn't turn to mush before I finished what I was working on.
Thank you. Both parents are gone now, and it's just me and my siblings.

Nice picture Valerie and I do remember you from Bubblews. That seems so long ago and we've already spent years here on myLot.
Nothing much planned here this weekend. Busy making a grocery list and hoping to get around to my crocheting at some point.

That is great and a nice picture. If you go back and crop and save your photo, it will probably come out right side up when you repost it. Getting rid of the excess part of the photo makes it more attractive too.
I wrote on Helium, Bubble, Yahoo, and a bunch of other writing sites before I came here. I wrote under several different pen names, some of them ridiculous.

I love seeing the photo of your family, especially your mother and father. Unlike you, I have not finished my notifications and have to take a shower and get ready for a big night out, so no time for an in depth of what I know about you. I do know much about you and that you are the sweetest woman I know!

It depends. Probably not. Though other than the obvious tells, my life is boring. I write my day away. I have grandchildren I don't see but would love to, and great-grandchildren who live too far away to visit. I attend Writer's Guild once a month and try to swim every day. However, depending on what time I wake tomorrow, will determine if I go to the pool or not, and that depends on what time the game gets over tonight because I'm a Packers fan and I'm not missing the game tonight. Will you be watching?

@porwest I'm the same as you, not a sports fan, but a huge Packers fan. I love being an armchair quarterback during Packers games, and it's even better when they listen to me as they did during Sunday night's game. Yep! They did exactly what I told them to do in those last two minutes.

@just4him I am a Packers fan, but not a huge sports fan. If I watch it is because my wife is watching, and she is a HUGE Packers and sports fan. We often joke that our roles are revered. I am the cook. So I am usually in the kitchen cooking dinner while she is in the living room yelling "SACK HIM!!!!"
