WHATS HAPPENENING SUNDAY

Good morning wow it got cold here last night down to 36 no frost but cold enough to really....
sorry i am so late in getting this posted but have been doing a lot , and also have to go to work today....

hope you all have a good Sunday. I see very few were on the computer at all yesterday. and no one posted ....hmmmmmmm

Andy i am praying for your friend...I know he means a lot to you all. ...

Jeanie how did your testing go?

well i need to go and get my clothes together   love you all even if you are too busy lol ....

Very chilly here and it was 68 in the house so I turned on the furnace.  I do love these cool, sunny days. 

Last week was a hellish week at work.  My eye is doing fine and my sight in that eye is about 90%.  I'm so thankful to have my sight back.  I'm having headaches daily and I think it must be related to the eye problem.  I didn't have them before the infection.  A lot of aggravation at work and I just didn't want to be there.  I need to cut back which I can do any time but I don't like giving up that pay one day a week. 

Next Saturday there's a open house for a retirement center so we're going to take a look.  All utilities are paid and the cottages are all on one level.  Our house is ranch style but there's a lot of upkeep.  Would be nice not to have to worry about maintenance.  Just hope they aren't too expensive.

I'm going to make a pot of vegetable soup.  I have a new cookbook, Eat What You Love, by Marlene Koch.  Great recipes.  They are all healthy and have the exchanges for diabetics, etc.  I have a chicken thawing to smoke.  Paula Deen had a Cranberry Jello salad on her show so I'm making that too but with sugar free Jello and Splenda.

I gave my big slow cooker away thinking I didn't need it, but I'm thinking of getting another one.  Instead of the 6 qt., I'm getting the smaller 4 qt. 

Jo i keep thinking about downsizing at times but then wonder what in the world would i do about flowers....how would i keep busy, there isnt anything i like doing other than working in the flowers....
i guess i could go around to all my friends houses and do their flowers lol

i have a big slow cooker too but one thing that is great about it is that it has two inserts that you can cook in that are smaller...one of them is just the right size for me and Joe...but the big one is right for when some of the family comes....it is the best of two worlds..it also has a handle locks to be able to carry it all to church or somewhere without the lid coming off in transport....i think my daughter got it for me at wal mart about 8 years ago...it is still working great. ....

sorry about your eye but glad it is better now. our eye site is nothing to fool around with. i need very badly to get mine checked.....

 Just got home from a family wedding in Louisville, Ky. It was wonderful weather until an hour before the wedding and it started raining and got really cold. It was supposed to outside but wound up in a working barn. Even had a horse sticking his head out of his stall. It was just to cold to stay long under the tent after the meal so we missed the music and dancing. Of course DH doesn't dance anyway. It was nice to see family and visit with them.
I am worn out but did have a great time, there was a fantastic art fair downtown and we went Sat. morning. Most of it was way over my budget but nice to look at.

Looks like winter is on its way, my what a difference a few weeks makes.

wow what a different and unsual wedding ....in a working barn  ...certainly different huh?

yep looks like we are having a preview of winter a little early but it will be warm again in a day or two......
