Happy Halloween Eve Everybody!

Good Monday Morning Everybody! How is everyone? Did everybody have a good weekend? I sure hope so. Mine was busy, busy, busy...but that's life, right? I've been kind of bad eating...made a strawberry shortcake for my sister's birthday and I had 2 pieces of it this weekend. But I'm back on the wagon today Also going to the gym this evening too (for the first time in two weeks)..oh my aching muscles, I can hear 'em screaming for mercy now..hehe This week is shaping up to be kinda busy too. Work has just been a bear, but that's to be expected at this time of year. Tuesday I'm going to Tia's to celebrate Halloween and help her throw candy...er, pass out candy to the little kiddies in her neighborhood Friday, Tia and I are meeting a group of folks from the singles board for dinner. So what's up in your world? How goes the eating, fluids, supplements, protein and exercise? Have a Wonderful Day! Terry

Good morning Terry The weekend went WAY too fast for me, but it was a good one. We did our usual Saturday night dinner thing with our friends Jeff & Wendy. Yesterday we got an 'early' start on our day (I think it was the time change thing ) We were out to breakfast and shopping at Sam's club and STILL home by 12:30. Mr Mo went off to watch the Ravens game with a couple of the guys and I went out about 2:30 to finish my errands (I had to get my prep stuff for next week's colonoscopy and a trip to Kohls and Old Navy). It was every bit of 5 p.m. when I finally got home. The only downer to the weekend was Mr Mo got rear-ended on the way home. He was stopped at the light at Arnold Road and someone plowed into him. He got out, saw the damage and the guy that hit him was busy saying .. yeah totally my fault, pull over and I'll give you my insurance info. Well, Mr Mo pulled into Safeway and the guy took off. The damage is all on the bumper but it's twisted and torn up. Mr Mo got a tag #, but when the police got there and ran it ... it was an invalid tag # ... no wonder the guy didn't hang around . So now we have to get the blazer fixed. We were planning on getting it in the shop to have the shocks done (Mr Mo can do the job, but just doesn't have the time to do it) and a new exhaust system. Guess the shocks and exhaust are on hold until the body damage is fixed. I'm just glad he was in the blazer and not the Camaro. If someone had hit the Camaro, Mr Mo probably would have decked them. Uhoh, look at the time. I've got a meeting at 9 a.m. so I had better move it here. Hugs, Mo

Good morning! We had our halloween party Friday night (I posted some pics on my profile). Saturday Kylie and I visited with some friends. Sunday we all went to mass and then to the VFW to watch some football. For dinner Kylie and I went to Mealey's in New Market with my parents. YUM was that good. We shared some cream of crab soup, a crab cake and some mashed sweet potatoes. More than enough food for my and Kylie. It's funny a normal meal is too much for me, a kid's meal is too much for her, but a normal meal is just a enough for the two of us (we did leave some mashed potato though).

Good morning, er...afternoon. I have been hoppin since getting to work today. I am leaving early for an ortho appointment for Meghan. Too busy to leave early today but I don't have a choice. I had a difficult weekend. On Friday evening when I got home I wanted some popcorn. Well, I popped a bag in the microwave, added a little butter and salt. Enjoyed the nice hot popcorn...then I dumped big time! Oh what an unpleasant experience. About 30 minutes after I finished the popcorn I got very sick to my stomach, very shakey, low bloodsugar type feelings and extremely drowsy. I also got very hot, which happens when my blood sugar is out of wack. I ended up in bed by 7:00 that night and slept all night. The next morning I got up, still feeling pretty weak but wanted to attend our ladies meeting. Went to the meeting and had a really little piece of pineapple cake. I mean it was only 1X1 piece that was not thick at all. Well, within about 15 minutes I was shakey again, got another hot flash and was very nauseaus. Oh yea, diarreah with all this too. I got home, praying I wouldn't passout the entire way, and fell into bed again. Dumping really wipes me out. I was pretty nauseaus all day and the next morning I woke up sick to my stomach and shakey/hotflashes again before I ever got a chance to eat anything. Thankfully by the time I got home from church (I went and just sat) I began to feel better and I stuck to only protein...no more carbs for the better part of the day. I actually felt so much better that I went to baking. I made apple crisp, pumpkin bars, & pumpkin cheesecake. I was a baking fool! It was fun to be in the kitchen and I was happy to not feel sick and like I was going to pass out. I am going to get back to work now. It's going to be a very long week. I'll explain another time...really goofed up my bosses trip. Yikes! Don't want to be here when he gets back on Wednesday. All I can say is yes, I made a mistake and I am sorry. Hopefully he won't be too angry by then. Take care. Hugs, Robin
