WHATS HAPPENING NEW YEARS EVE 2009

NEW YEARS EVE::::2009 SO tomorrow we start writing 2010 wow…remember the scare over 2000? Some were so sure that the year 2000 was the end, now it is 2012 well two more years to see if that happens…lol I think the world as we know it might change a lot…elect rationed and only the rich can afford it…same with all the other things that we all take for granted. I think everyone should be prepared at all times to be able to support yourselves. I wish I had the money to get my house on solar but it cost so much , to just get it started.

Got all my seed trays cleaned and ready to plant seeds in them…need to find a small ventless propane heater for the green house. Once I plant seeds I need to keep it fairly warm at least 60 to 70 degrees. The ones that need to be warmer will go on the top shelves…I have a tray of tomatoe seeds already planted and they are here in the house on the end of the table. Lol this variety take a long time to get big enough to plant so I give them a good start off early …this year I am here to be able to give them a good head start.

Do you have any New Years Resolutions??? I am starting the 5 day pouch test tomorrow…want to get the carb monster under control …and get my pouch re-set like it was before. It is something that a person needs to do once in a while …it isn’t a fad diet, just helps get you back on the right pathway…I have gotten a little off the beaten path with Christmas , I didn’t have any trouble the two years before but this one I guess I thought I was normal lol

My resolution is that I will get back to eating right and leave the junk alone. By junk I mean anything white mainly…no sugar, no pasta, no white flour, no gravy, no biscuits,lol just need to do lots of water and lots of protein.

SUSIE;:::: hey I have an idea that will save you lots of money and another surgery , just wear that girdle all the time. Lol just kidding. I don’t know how you could get it on without hurting , I can get the good ones on that hold all of our loose skin but they hurt my insides. don’t know if it is because im so short waisted or what but it always feels like my guts are being squashed. Especially now with the pouch being right out in front …have you ask Margie if they know a plastic surgeon that takes tri care? I bet they do.

Good luck on finding one. Try using this website .they have a lot of them listed on here too.

I wish we weren’t so far away from me too. Springfield is about the same distance from me as it is from you. Plus I have about half of it in curves and hills and I mean curves on small two lanes. It takes me any where from one and half hour to two hours to get there. It is a chore to get there sometimes.

JO:::: I know what you mean about the protein but I have tried so many of them over the three year period and the only one I like is vanilla protein powder. I can put it in anything. I put it in puddings, and most of the the things you bake you can put it in. but I make smoothies a lot with frozen fruit. A little splenda, 4oz milk and scoop of protein powder. I drink it with a straw and you don’t taste any of the bad taste lol I know they say no straws but I get more air trying to drink without a straw. Anyway that gives you 30 mg of protein right there and I can do those a couple times a day and with making either coffee or hot choc with a scoop of protein powder in it that’s another 30.…some people say that the protein powder wont disolve but I put ho****er from the tap on it and stir untill it is then pour in the coffee.

Just experiment with making things with the powder you are a good cook you should be able to come up with something. Oh for something different with coffee, I sometimes add a package of hot choc mix in it…sort of different like a capachino. On OH there is a recipe area that has lots of different ways to mix the powder up and with different things. Yuck on the pumpkin shake that is plain nasty….do you like egg nog it taste pretty good with it mixed with that. Some make the orange Julius with orange juice and milk too then the protein powder. Like I said you are a good cook you should be able to come up with your own that you love. Or at least like pretty good. Lol

BARB::: yes the old sweater sleeves work pretty good for leg warmers. And I ordered me some from a dance place online . Then I went and bought some good thick socks for wearing around the house too. I also got a pair of fuzzy boot house shoes for Christmas. And I know everyone makes fun of them but my daughter got me a snuggie to use when I sit down at night to watch tv. I just freeze when I sit down and sit still for more than 10 minutes . I hate winter and don’t know if we will ever stay around here for another one.

JEANIE=RAE:::::: You take care of that cold and get well , you need to start taking all the vits and protein now before surgery to get yourself in good health, and with the extra protein it will help you heal fast after surgery.

Sure wish I could see how you do the grocery bags. That sounds like something I could learn to do to help pass this cold winter weather. I have plastic grocery bags coming out my ears. Maybe next month you can bring some and show me how to do it. From the cutting of the bags to how you put them together. Sounds interesting…a good way to recycle .

Will keep you in my prayers and your hubby too…get well.

LOU::::: well it is party night , tonight lol….Joe and I will be here at home , maybe shoot off a shot gun at midnight lol that is about as wild as we get. Exciting huh? We use to do the party thing but just don’t any more. The year seems to come in without us doing anything .lol

Oh I got hold of Karen and she said that it might be best to wait a couple of months , especially on a summer cottage . So I guess I will wait and maybe advertise it myself off and on locally and see what happens.

Well going to close with a special HAPPY NEW YEARS to each and every one of you will see you next year in 2010
