melissatwa's Journal, 22 Jul 20

When a Fat Secret friend is REAL! Chrisw77 came to visit us with his lovely, sweet wife today! He is loaning us his bench!!!! I am so thrilled! With our gym closed, this will be such a help!

Also, as a follow up to a visit a couple months ago, we were able to see the results of the work cloning my neighbor's dogwood tree! It worked! We have roots! Next spring both Chris's house and ours should have beautiful, little flowering trees! They wont be ready to look like the parent tree shown in the last picture from this spring, but someday! Thank you, Chris and Mrs Chris!

Wow! What a great set-up and so awesome of Chris indeed!

Well done Chrisw77 !! BTW melissa, chris is also a big proponent of daily weigh-in but using weekly averaging. He posted recently on this in TRUTHS. Your HealthKit app does this automagically if you link databases.

I love it when people are good to each other. That was really nice of Chris. Dogwoods are our state tree here in Virginia. I have several white Dogwoods but last year I planted my first red one. I think the red dogwoods are so beautiful...

I love dogwood trees. It's my favorite tree. I grew up in PA and brought one back to NY to plant up here. Well the zoning must be different for the variety I got, so it does OK here but not as well as I would like. Your parents tree is amazing. I never saw one so full and with thick branches before.

I really am so thrilled! I'm fighting to get back as close as possible to where I was before the gyms closed, and this will help for sure! Chris is an awesome support and gives such useful and relevant advice! sk, I'm going to have to ask him how he links things up for averaging weekly weight! 😁

John, when I posted a picture this spring of this dogwood, Chris got the idea to clone it. It has the most spectacular color of any I have ever seen. I hope, hope our little new trees survive!!!

Shelly, I'm sorry your trees are doing as well as you would like. I think the picture might be a bit deceiving. It is an absolutely lovely tree with stunning color, but it isn't massive... Just perfect! My neighbor is a super cross fellow, so I was very nervous when I first asked. It has been two months of waiting for the roots to grow before cutting the branches... A little lump of soil had been wrapped around it all this time 😁

Amen! Preach it, brother!!! Hahah! 😁 Yes, huge thanks to Diablo, his princess, and Becc! So many blessings!

Haha just read the comments. I was thinking now we have a matching bench. 💪🏼

Oh my gosh, you met Jack Sparrow and Mrs. Sparrow? How awesome! And you are so lucky, that bench looks great. I’m shopping for one myself right now and that one looks pretty perfect. What a sweet gesture. How long is he letting you borrow it for? Love the tree as well, that is sure to be a wonderful addition to your already gorgeous yard.

Now if I could somehow match your muscles... 😁 But, this will allow me to do some back workouts I was missing along with so much better positioning for other movements!  
23 Jul 20 by member: melissatwa
Yes, newnameMM! The Sparrows are lovely people! 😁 We actually had a FS meet up with five local folks just before the pandemic really started heating up. We planned to get together again soon along with Love2educate and Newduggan, but... Life sure took a crazy turn. Someday!!!

Oh, and as long as Chris's gym doesn't close up, we can keep using it. For sure if his gym stops allowing people to come in, we will run it back down to him!
