Good for you Eunice. I don't know what all this complaining is about. The RP

group I belong too had the same kind of complaints yeaterday and Sat. It was

pretty boring today. There's only so much that can be discussed on any one

suject. If you don't like what we talk about use the delete button. Lois

Gee... how RUDE!

If you have had a chance to read the messages on the group, we are like a

family here. WE share about EVERYTHING that goes on in our lives, and this

includes sales and prayer requests.

Sharing and " letting go " of stress is a good way to keep your blood sugars

down. Should try it sometime. Too much stress makes you constipated.

Emotionaly and physicaly.

I agree, but you can't please everybody. If we tried, the whole point of

reducing stress through the group would be pointless

JUDITH,

as far as I am concerned, you just keep purring away about your agile

service pup all you want -

Service dogs have been recognized in aiding the elderly, autistic children,

shut-ins, and those

suffering from psychosis (okay, I can't spell & don't want to be so pc

incorrect to use the words I

can spell - but I mean people who are institutionalized for being insane).

Furthermore, if you

watch the animal channel on cable there is several programs where hard-time

prisoners

train dogs either as service for the disabled or simply to rehabilitate dogs

to be adopted through

the local humane societies.

these dogs (& cats too) do wonders for lowering stress which in turn lowers

cortisal, which is a

major component to belly fat (male weight gain pattern) and I'm sure there

are others here besides

me that have this issue. Anything that helps lower this chemical that is

free I'm all for. Okay

critters aren't free, but the benefits from being their caretaker are, and

that sure beats paying

for another prescription that I can't always remember to take at the right

time!

Did you ever see the pictures of the " world's ugliest dog " ? that pup was

hideous, but think of all

the joy he brought others when they realized he didn't belong to them! If

you haven't seen his

pic's, he looked like a cross between a chinese crested & a shaved 'possum

and his braces

could have sent an orthodontist's entire family through medical school!

musta had too many carbs for dinner tonight - got diarrhea of the mouth

anyways, what all this boils down to is: we's your friends here & we's wants

to hear about

your exercise with your agility service dog -

there, take that you curmudgeons - exercise applies to diabetes as much as

diet & meds & bg control!

knew if I kept at it, I could link my thoughts to being a brat & on point!

And just to jab a little deeper/harder

if we diabetics don't exercise & maintain control, how many of us would end

up needing service animals

in the future due to blindness or other secondary health issues........

okay, done being mean for the moment

blessed be

beth

you are just too much and I hope you keep it up! Ugliest dogs. I didn't

know about that one.

Amen Eunice ...

I have been too busy this school year to really read the posts .. at the

moment I am starting to go through approx. 250 emails fromt his list. I did

not want to simply hit the delete key, but to start reading them again....

so I am behind

But once again, Eunice... AMEN

Oh.. I am having my mother come stay with me this summer to get her out of

the New Orleans area for a bit this hurricane season. She was reluctant to

come but decided in the end to do so. It will be nice to have her here and

she can spend some time with my two daughters (now grown, married, with

children) for a bit besides a week or so of vacation every few years.

On the diabetes side... I have been fighting my numbers all school year (I

teach). They have been running high for me and my last ac1 test was 7.1

three months ago. I go next weekend for another test. I have a feeling I

will be on meds but after all the stress of Katrina and my family down south

with that one nasty storm, a sister with heart problems (still continue to

have problems), etc. I can understand why they are running higher. I will

let the group know what happens after the 23rd when I see my doctor.

Hi ,

Once your mom gets to your house, she is going to enjoy every minute of it.

And, as usual I spent too much money at bath and body works and the sale has

not ended yet. I'll be back there Tues and Fri, I'm sure. I bought a lot

of those trial size lotions and shower gels for $2. each. When I know someone

has had a bad day or a bad week, I like to put one each of the lotion and

shower in a cellophane bag, tie it with a pretty ribbon and attach a card and

give it to them to help cheer them up.

hugs

Eunice

Hi ,

It takes so little effort to do something nice for someone, but it can make

a world of difference in that person's life. Every one needs a friendly

smile, hug or just a little something saying, " I care for you " .

An example, yesterday was a hard day for me, trying to do housework and keep

the virus messages deleted. I'm not complaining, because I love this group.

But, last night, just before I got ready to go to bed, I received an email

from out of the blue from one of our members. I had been thinking about him,

but was not going to send him an email until after this virus stuff had

cleared. That message meant a lot.

I'm not putting anyone down and I hope no one takes it that way, but we

would all be more healthy if we spent less time on " me " and more time on

others.

I am so sorry about your friend. Did she leave small children?

hugs

Eunice

[Guest guest]

Eunice,

That is such a nice idea. I will have to remember that and keep an eye out

for small things of that sort and try to do what you do. It is such a nice

gesture of friendship and caring...and we need much more of that in our

lives. My school district that I work for is a close group of employees

(students also) and we have lost quite a few this year to death.. just

recently last week one of the younger teachers (24 yrs old) died in a head

on collision the night before our last work day at school. Many in my

district could have used something of this sort this past year. I started

knitting and crocheting this year and maybe I can do something with that

I know she will enjoy it. I need to still go and find a bed for my spare

bedroom. I just spent $220 at the vet's yesterday on my dog (almost 15 yrs

old) for some problems she is having. I had my car looked at since my horn

and cruise does not work, well it needs a part and part and labor would run

approx. $250 (think I will just forget about that for now). The vet bill is

what did me in for now... not an expected expense. I have to give the dog

some medicine twice a day for now (not an easy task with her) and hopefully

it will take care of both the unterine infection and lyme's. I hardly ever

go to Bath and Body works since the smells in there tend to bother me. I

can only do a quick walk in, find what I want right away and pay and then

get out.

Well, need to start some housework now.
