Love and hugs.......Boo to you!!

Aaa choo!  Me too!  I thought I was catching another cold, but as the day wore on, it feels more like a touch of allergies.  Hope we all feel better soon.  I guess it's the price we pay for spring weather! While all y'all are looking forward to Friday, I AM NOT.  It means I'm that much closer to having to face Monday and the ogre.  I vow to make the most of my last few days of freedom.  Thinking too much of my return to H3LL, got me in trouble earlier.  I found some leftover Easter candy hidden in the pantry and I ate 1/2 of a 1 oz bunny before stopping and throwing that darn thing in the garbage.  He's history, buried under coffee grinds - hum mocha flavored bunny might taste good!  I'm kidding sistas!  He's staying buried! B - protein shake S - .5 oz chocolate bunny L - piece of fish with onions and salad S - apple w/ p'nut butter D - fish with onions, cheese grits, brussel sprouts, maybe some mushrooms S - yogurt with All Bran cereal and strawberries.  Our Pontchatoula, LA strawberries are in season and YUMMY!  Bought some at the grocery this morning Last night I had a yogurt with All Bran cereal, and as soon as it went down, it made a repeat performance   What's up with that?  I've had it many times before without any problem. Love to all, Debbie

Nancy I agree azaleas are gorgeous.  Ours were in full bloom about two weeks ago.  The only problem with them is they don't last long.  Within 3 -4 days, they are ugly shriveled messes. I had a banana for a late snack too - been having leg cramps.  I remember as a kid, mom NEVER let us eat bananas after dinner.  Supposedly they were too heavy to digest and would sit like a lump in our tummies - an old wives tale left over from grandma's days. Debbie

I remember, at one time, being told that ripe bananas were the perfect food for infants.

My doctor told me to eat more bananas since Im taking a fluid pill..the same one that Joyce S gave me in Dallas only not as potent. In 1999, when I had cellulitis in oth legs, the internist at the hospital had put me on serious fluid pills to get rid of the excess lymph fluid.

Only problem was that he neglected to consider the potasium in my blood which the fluid pills leached out to the point that I almost had a heart attack...boy, was my family doctor upset!

I had temporary heart damage at the time, he said and now he worries about me and fluid pills..so I try to eat a banana a day plus take potasium pills.

It's like everything else, one day something is bad for you and the next it's the miracle cure or vice versa. When I was on 4 - 5 blood pressure meds per day, I was also told to eat a banana per day or drink a glass of orange juice for potassium.  Bananas don't seem to upset Oscar as long as I stick with the smaller ones.  On the other hand, pears kill poor Oscar - strange thing is apples go down OK. Nite nite Sweet Nancy!  I'm getting up early in the morning and it's after 1:30.   I'm so glad you decided to come back to your sistas!
