Good morning, It is 53 degrees going up to 70. Record breaking for this date Nov. 4 in Maine. Yesterday I went to Walmart to get batting for the pet beds I am making. I then went to Shaw’s grocery store and I parked down near the end even though there were few cars in that part of the lot. Just as I got to my van I heard a man crying for help. I turned and he was lying on the ground he had fallen off the motorized cart he was on. I rushed up to check him and… Read more »

Hi Jenn
Oh how scary for the man. Maybe this has happened before if he wanted an ambulance called or just wanted the proper help. Good thing you were there.

He said this has happened before. He was such a sweet man, very kind spoken and thankful for help. I am grateful for the young man rushing to help I was scared how badly he was hurt.
I usually park in the end parking spaces and this was the far end of the store where few were parked.

I always park at the end too away from other cars to avoid door dings, even when my cars get old I do the same.

Hi Jenn.
Oh I say that is what worries me is falling dow and not being able to get up on my own.
When Glenda has fallen I had to call our friend across the road who lifted her and sat her in her chair.
There is no way I could have lifted her on my own.
Hope the man was ok in the end.🙄😘

I understand your concerns Ice.😌 A limp body that cannot push their legs to help stand is so much harder to lift. Thankful you have a neighbor who can help along with your sons. You sure cannot risk hurting yourself trying to hold Glenda up Ice.

Hi Jenn
What a scary situation for that man. I’m glad you were there and called over the young man. I hope the man that fell off the motorized cart will be okay 🙏🏻

Good mornig, A little warmer this morning. 53° at 5am.I cleaned yesterday and Muriel came over for a haircut.
It was a cooler day. It’s like summer as my clothes I hang out to dry take forever right now.
I finally got my pink top from Modlily and guess what? It is too tight on me…..if I wasnt so chubby maybe it would’ve fit better but its even tight across my top!! Their sizes must not be real consistent, IDK but, that was disappointing and I guess I get to keep the pink, grey and white top i never ordered.

I remember it taking lots longer to dry clothes when it became Fall time.
That is really too bad with your tops being different sizes though they are labeled the same. I am pretty sure you will never order from them again. Denny is wearing the jacket he got a bit but he really needed and expected it to be a warm winter jacket. At least it fits him as far as the size he ordered goes.

Oh if i was thinner it would fit better……I am so depressed that i let myself gain during covid and now it seems to stay.
No I will never order from them again. I have marked their emails as SPAM!!!!
That is good Denny can wear the jacket…i thought you said it was a womans jacket?

Amber went through that Ardy. During covid her work had all employees working from home. The isolation not being out and around others and a bad relationship she gained some weight. She would not let me take pictures when she visited because she was so upset. She got back to her good weight but it took some time. She was not that much overweight but it bothered her so much.

I started baking from recipes i saw on FB and it was a very stressful time staying home and the worry of getting covid and maybe even dieing. I am working on it but it isnt easy.
It bothers me a lot!!! I obsess over it and dont like being seen in public.

Jenn
November 4, 2026 7:07 am

I am sorry you feel like that Ardy. It is so much better to work on it by cutting back some rather then extreme measures like the shots but that is my opinion. The doctor I worked for many years always said to patients to not go on fad diets which usually fall away to more weight. I have my moms genes, I weight the same most of my adult life as she did. I have had to fight being too thin years back and was teased for being too thin. I am a picky eater and like sweets but… Read more »

He thought the zipper was on the opposite side as a mans but would not notice it unless you were zipping it up. Thick it was a flaw with the making of it in China.

I never purposely order from them and I usually order brands I know are safe but still you can be fooled like Denny was. It said a company out of Boston, Mass. which was very deceiving.

JoAnn has the top and it looks so good on her and she is the reason i ordered it…she is on the weight loss injections like so many I know and I am jealous!!!! She bought the XL and she said her top is big on her now …maybe she will send me hers? She did mention it in passing.

Jenn
November 4, 2026 6:42 am

I would be very afraid of those injections. Some of the movie stars on it look so gaunt in the face it is scary and some are all bones. Guess you can take anything too far.

To tell you the truth I am afraid of them. My new NP said you lose muscle and i had heard that……Medicare has approve the pill for $50 a month for a year…..i would like to try that but they say you should take them the rest of your life which I dont want to do nor can i afford $300+ a month….I dont know how JoAnn does it.

Good morning. Beryl, Jenn. Ardyth, Kathy, Lynn, Pam. A cool morning after a cold night just above a frost, thank goodness. A cold North wind has set in now until next week when we might be back into storm conditions again. Not many leaves left on the bypass trees now in these windy conditions. It is PRETZEL shopping day so off in a short while to be at opening time of 8-00. Pick a set of wheels for support and stumble around lidl\s the best I can.lol. I def not look forward to this day apart from the PRETZEL of… Read more »

Good morning Ice,
I hope you got the pretzels and that you got around okay. I was writing above about the man who slipped from his electric cart. He was trying to get into his car and I think he did not judge the distance between the car and the cart. Still one of those would be so good for you when shopping. They have a basket on the front for your groceries.

The Pretzel was still warm out of the oven this morning, very tasty and chewy.
That would be ideal for our store, I could sit Glenda in the basket pile the goods on her lap problem solved.lol.😀😘

Good morning, It is mild outside, 53 going up to 64. Still no rain I bought polar fleece to make some pet beds for the animal shelter recently. I needed batting for the inside, I make them like a quilt with 3 layers. Denny went on errands to wash the van and to the bank yesterday so I asked him to stop at the new Hobby Lobby to get me some. He came back with 1″ foam that is not going to work so I will have to take it back but I never mind going to that store. With… Read more »

Hi Jenn
Too bad Denny bought the wrong item but at least you go back and get what you really need. I’m so glad that both Hobby Lobby and Michaels Crafts are carrying merch similar to what JoAnn’s did 😀
I know that was frustrating for Audrey!
