Hi Adele,
Brook is doin well now. They gave her the antibiotics and that took care of the infection. She is home now and glad to be there. Grayson wants the baby to play with him and he doesn’t understand. So they have to keep telling him to be careful.
That is good that peanut butter crackers help your stomach. At least you have found something that helps. It is hard to find that one thing that will help. I am glad that your stomach is doing well right now.
I like that bags that you fixed the trick or treaters. I wish we would get some around here but we never do. I think that I am going to take Grayson on Halloween to trunk or treat. I know that he will have fun. I may have to get him a costume but that is okay.
We had storms and tornados all around us here last night. It was scary. The house my sister-in-law use to live in was destroyed. There is nothing left of it. We saw it on the news. She use to live in Fredrick town. We are so glad that she got it sold and had moved to Greenville. She drove up to see the damage this morning. They also had damage in Farmington and St Mary’s and then it went into Illinois. It is a mess and so sad to see all those homes destroyed. It was nice that no one was seriously injured and there were not deaths.
Well that is about all from here. Have a great night and stay safe.

Hi Adele,
Brook went back in the hospital the day after she came home. She had an infection. They did the same thing that they did when Grayson was born. They did not clean her out like they should and did not get all the after birth out. So she had to stay in the hospital and they put an antibiotic drip in. She had to stay over night and they left the IV in.
I know what you mean about the food. You never can be sure what will make you sick and won’t. Then something that you ate before with no trouble makes you sick the next time. So you just keep going. I have gone from wearing a xl or 1x to wearing a medium to a small. I think I lost over 60 lbs. before it stopped. I still lose off and on. So you could keep losing just be careful and watch how much you lose. I take vitamins to make sure that I am getting what I need.
Well that is all from here. Have a great night and stay safe.

Hi Everybody,
The baby is here. She weighed 7 lbs. They named her Nova Elaine. I thought that was really cute it was better then Harley. That sounds like a boys name to me. I am glad that she changed her mind. I have not seen her yet. I have received a picture of her though. I cannot wait to hold her and cuddle she is so cute.
DD I hope that the rain did not flood everybody out. We finally got some rain here but we really needed it though. I still have not caught a show where they have Boofetti. I must just miss out on it all the time. It is always sold out.
It is funny that we both eat oatmeal and cream of wheat when we have stomach trouble. You will find that you just have to figure out what you can eat that will not make you sick. It takes me awhile. The one thing that really surprised me was that I cannot eat salad anymore. If I do eat some I have to stay home because I am never sure what it will cause my stomach to do. That is what I have to do with a lot of different foods. I use to love chili but that is one thing I cannot eat anytime. You will figure it all out. Are you feeling better? I hope so.
My brother is not getting any better. They had him in the hospital and taught him pain management. That really worries me it seems like it is the last thing they do when you have cancer.
Have a good night and stay safe.

Hi Adele,
27 pounds is a lot to lose. My doctor told me to make sure that I was drinking enough water and eating the right foods. So that is what I did and still am losing weight. I try to make sure that I eat fruit and veggies do not worry about meat as much. It just depends on what tastes good to you. I ate oat meal and cream of wheat. I guess that I eat a lot of things that they feed babies lol
You are lucky that you can have virtual visits with your doctor. I have to go in all the time no matter what. My primary doctor always has to do blood tests when I g there. I do not know how they can get that much blood out of a person without giving you something to help to replace it.
We are finally getting caught up on the rain fall here. Ron picked some more tomatoes out of the garden the other day. They weren’t very big but they taste good.
The baby is not here yet but we are waiting for the little one to make her appearance. Her due date is Monday on Gail’s birthday and my brothers. Thank you so much for the prayers for my brother he really needs them.
Well that is all from here. Have a great night and stay safe.

Hi Everybody,
Well not much going on here. Adele I am sorry that you are not feeling well yet. It is nice that you lost 5 pounds. Maybe you will keep it off. That is how I lost my weight and have not gained it back yet. It is a hard way to lose but that is how I did it. I hope you feel better soon. Sometimes you have to let the doctors know what you think about things. I am going to have to argue with my doctor when I see her.
Have you been watching DWTS and Masked Singer. It has been a long time since I have seen the Pointer sisters. I hope that the sister that is sick will be okay. They use to be so good. I do not know who I want to win on DWTS. They are all pretty good. I don’t know if it was just me or if they did not treat Sharna and Brian the same as the other dancers. Len kept going on about they were to lovey and I do not think should have any thing to do with it. They should have not pared them together.
Gail it is nice that you are getting to see your grands again. It is always a blessing to see them and and enjoy being around them. I love seeing mine. Aliza was having a fund raiser at her school and she called me but did not know how to ask me to buy anything. So I had to come out and ask her if she was selling something. Then she started asking. It was funny. Danyielle called me earlier and told me about it so I figured out what I wanted when she called. It is funny when they are little.
Well that is about all from here. My brother has been on two different treatments and neither one worked. they are testing him to see if he is suited for a new study they are doing. We are just praying that he does.
I have all of you in my prayers. Have a good night and stay safe,
Colleen

Hi Ladies,
Did anyone watch DWTS tonight? I could not believe the outfit that Tara wore. She looked so weird. I am not sure what look she was going for but she looked like a hooker. You expected her to get a whip out and start snapping it.
I am wondering if QVC is having money problems. They made a mistake having all these channels. Did they buy out HSN ? They let all their good hosts go and they are missed.
It will be interesting to see what happens.
Have a great night and stay safe.

Have a great night and stay safe

Hi Ladies,
I have not been on here for awhile. We got some really bad news. My brother has stage 4 lung cancer. It was such a shock and still is. He has always been the one in the family that always been so healthy. They tried a new treatment on him but it did not work. Then he went on chemo and they told him it is not working. I really need you ladies to start praying for him. They are going to send him to another doctor and see what they can come up with. All the prayers you can say for him would be appreciated.
Thanks
Colleen

Hi Adele,
I am glad that you are feeling better. It will take awhile to get use to the new diet. I hope you stomach will calm down soon. What are you taking for your ulcer? I hope you do not have to take a lot of new medicines. Just take care of yourself and get a lot of rest. Give yourself time to feel better. You are in my prayers.
The flowers that they sent are really pretty. You have such a good neighbor. The baby is due the 18th of October. I cannot wait to see her and Grayson together. It will be interesting to see if Grayson will accept her or not. He is a little spoiled.
Take care of yourself.
Colleen
