That is so cool! Maybe I'll put some bird feeders up.

We're in North Carolina now, for about 4.5 years once my husband retired. I miss the old check-in as well. I've been in the Cronies check-in for the past few years and have enjoyed it. These days I do more strength work at the YMCA and walk in the neighborhood rather than complex cardio, but I have fond memories of my adventures in cardio and that group that was so supportive.

It was very overwhelming with all the information overload. Although it was a challenging recuperation it will all be worth it. Feel free to message me if I can help. I hope all goes well for your hubby.

Thanks for resurrecting this thread. I was actually thinking about starting a new one. But it's fun and inspiring to go back and read previous posts.

I enjoyed the beauty of the sky this past weekend. We had clouds, sun, and rain which produced a glorious rainbow! My nephew was in the car with me and asked for the code to get into my phone. He played Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's Over the Rainbow and it was just perfection!

Angela - I love that song and always play it at least twice. I also like his version of Take Me Home, Country Roads.

It has been a long time since I did this, but I've started eating frozen grapes. They are great and nothing settles my thirst like them. It's a small thing, but I am enjoying them.

I'm bringing this thread back because I have updates and don't need to start a new thread. So I talked about meeting my boyfriend near the end of 2021. 2022 was a wild year that I never talked about here. lol

We decided he'd come down for another 5 day visit in January 2022. He drove this time instead of flying. But after the 5 days were up, he never went home! We lived in hotel rooms for nearly 3 months, which was difficult, but we managed to get jobs and a nice apartment in mid-April last year.

Last Friday (March 17, 2023) we got engaged! We plan to marry on our 2 year anniversary together: October 9, 2023. We'll just go to the courthouse and take a few days off work to visit some places.
