Tuesday

Good morning!

Well..I had gotten a small reprieve from this darn cold desk area yesterday. They had to take the air off to work on the handlers. Other than it getting stuff, I was comfortable....for once. Everyone else was grumbling about it being so 'hot' in here. Grrr. They were even making comments on how they should be able to go home. I told them 'You go home whenever you get warm in here, then I can go whenever I get too cold. I can guarantee you that I'll be home way more than you will be.' That shut them up for awhile. Well..it's back to freezing again this morning. Should I ask..can I go home with pay? lol. Nah..I have my hoodie on. My Carhart (insullated jacket) will be the next thing added. Then gloves.

I did more work when I got home yesterday than I did here. It'll probably be the same thing tonight. I'm trying to get some things done before the surgery. Yesterday, I made me a large batch of the Cinnamon/splenda nuts. I only use cashew, walnuts, & pecans. I'm not crazy over peanuts or almonds. After I bake them & let them cool, I add some Fiber One cereal and a box of cinnamon Chex cereal to it. Tonight, I'll be mixing up another batch of my protein powder mix to tie me over.

Well all..have a wonderful Tuesday!

Hi there!
Another busy day.  I have to tidy up a few things at the office then it's off to Lafayette for a short meeting then to Mishawaka to spend the night and get ready for a speaking engagement tomorrow morning.
This will be a busy week.  My kids are coming in from Texas on Friday and will be with me for the weekend.  Can't wait to see them.
Sherri, I know what you mean about finally being warm.  The air conditioner in my car is making a terrible noise.  My husband says someone should look at it and give us an estimate.  I told him I'd rather not use it anyway.  It feels good to be warm.
Take care and enjoy the 85+ degrees today.

Annette,

So good to see you on here! How the heck have you been??? I'm back to freezing again! Darn it!!

Work has been crazy.  We had so many people retire, my workload tripled over night.  I'm looking forward to my evening in the hotel just to have some time to myself.  Is that bad?

Good Morning to all !!
Just got back from my morning walk,  I think I get more exercise from fighting off the neighborhood wild dogs than walking, LOL. Cant wait to get the ok to go back to work, this is boring sitting around the house with little to do !! I would go fishing but my stomach is still just a little sore.

Morning all
Last night went to Lucas: graduation from 8th grade a milestone for him and then to dinner cause Joey turned 26 today so we hit steak and shake .We had agood time and of course i love the attention i ran into 2 friends who have had gastric bypass and look great but are still waiting on tummy removal so they was happy i was able to get mine.
I am going to pick up Chrissy and go to Ky to get Neil and my dads ciggs.... today is the boys last day of school .
It hit me about 2 oclock this morning about my aunt Joyce she always had a way of making me feel special when i seen her she would say there she is and hi swetheart and lots of huggs and kisses and i didnt get them Sunday so i cried for quiet awhile and i know she is not suffering anymore and as horrible as it may sound i need to see if i can get some love from my mom like that..
Sherri i am either cold then i get what i think is a hot flash and it drives Neil nuts im either fanning the covers or stealing them and in the car i am freezing then i have to have the air conditioner on full blast,geuss im strange ...The nuts sound good i have never had them that way.
Annette glad you popped in to say hi
Robert carry abig stick and knock them in the head.lol
Glad you are feeling okay.
Everyone have a great day and stay safe
much love and many huggs

Lisa,

I dip the nuts in a mixture of eggs, water, and sf honey. After I be sure all of them have gotten wet, I put them on a cookie sheet and put a mixture of Splenda & cinnamon on them until coated. I bake them at 300 for about 30 minutes, stir them up and bake them another 30 minutes. Then I let them cool completely. That's it. Oh..and I add the cereals to it. Fiber One is a great one to get your fiber in..and well, I just like the taste of cinnamon Chex. lol.

I like almonds..but to me, they taste burnt when you do them this way.

They are a yummy, high protein treat to me. Gotta watch nuts though because they can also pack on grams of fat.

Sherri

thank you Sherry
I think the boys would like these to
