Morning to you Linda,

No way are you typical.

Hi sweet sister. I am so happy you checked in. You too are not typical,you are a strong,exceptional character,who holds my hand when I need it,and kicks me in the butt when I need that too.
  

good morning to you both

im sitting here with the first mug of coffee, drank most of a bottle of water already too.

my stomach is still grumbly, heading to Rite Aid looking for those gas - x strips on way to work this morning.

i think i nipped that cold i felt coming on in the bud, will continue the zicam stuff today, and also keep on pushing extra fluids

as to food, since we hit the road tomorrow, guess i will eat/clean out  the frig so not too much goes in the garbage.  not sure if that plan will work, sometimes it gets derailed

have a safe and wonderful day, jacki

Hiya Jacki,I wish you safe travel,I know you will be so happy to see your son! Your food choices will be good..why? Because you want them to be.
Take care, sweet lady.
  

Good morning, Linda.  It's good to hear you sounding chipper!

I have good news and bad news today.  The good news is I'm allowed to eat real food again today after 4 days on liquids.  I'm working on some oatmeal and it's going down just fine.  So I'm happy about that.  But the bad news is that I woke up with ANOTHER toothache (on the other side of my mouth) yesterday, and it's worse this morning, so I will have to call the dentist when his office opens.  I am NOT going back to the endodontist *****fused to give me pain-killers, though.

I took my French bulldog, Georgie, to visit Mom at the nursing home yesterday.  It was a great success.  He was very popular with the staff and several residents, to say nothing of Mom.

B:  banana bread Weight Control oatmeal w/ skim milk, banana & PB2
S: yogurt
L:  boiled eggs & asparagus
S: Better Balance protein pretzels
D: salmon w/ strawberry vinaigrette, spinach w/ pine nuts & raisins, oven turnip fries
S: SF pudding

Jean

Hiya Jean,happy to hear you are having better luck with your food. How nice to take your doggie,they work wonders with  people,so healing.
I know you made your mom so happy. How blessed she is to have you!
  

Happy, happy Monday,

Hi Linda and Everyone!

Love your smiley and not so smiley faces Linda!

Good news...I'm off work today so I can continue shoveling out my house (cleaning). I really needed this extra day.

Bad news...I'm off work cuz my furnace went out sometime during the nite. Woke at 0530 and it was quite chilly in here...I usually set the furnace at 58 during the nite cuz I have a down comforter that keeps me warm but it was only 50 in here when I woke up...getting chilly. The basement is even colder and I don't want my pipes to freeze so off today to dish out money to a repair man.  Just waiting for the guy to call back. I check the breaker and everything else I can check so it must be something internal.

B-Unjury chix soup with added TVP
L-Salmon with gr. beans
D-More salmon with gr. beans (love it)
s-apple with peanut butter

I'm going to visit a fitness center later today...when I spoke with my nut last wk she said Curves was ok for starting out fitness but I will need more challenge and workout a few months down the line. There's a Snap Fitness nearby and it's opened 24hr/day which will work better for my crazy schedule. Curves was only opened till 5pm...most days I'm not done with work till much later. I'll have to talk with "snap" about individualizing a program for me. I'm ashamed to say that it has been many years since I've done any real fitness routine.

Have a great day Everyone!
