Good Morning;

I'm about ready to head out the door, just have to pack up lunch and dinner for today. 

Today I'm working till 4pm then off to class tonight.  Tonight is my fist class after my transfer out of the class I began with.  I'm looking forward to meeting my new classmates.

I should be in class for about and hour or so tonight then home.

Yesterday I baked protein pumpkin muffins and oatmeal raisin/cranberry cookies.  Both are very good.  New recipes I was creating and re-figuring.

Hope everyone has an awesome day...

Could you please post the recipes, esp. the pumpkin muffin one?  I've got a craving for pumpkin, and all my recipes are high fat, high sugar.

Thanks.

you can substitute splenda for the sugar in any recipe (equal amounts)  I also add an individual container of no sugar applesauce to bake goods to keep them moist.  I know applesauce is used as a sub for fat also but I don't know the ratios.

Good morning all.  I know, I am a bad boy.  Haven't been here much.  But I found a new way to watch TV on my computer at work.  Uverseonline.  BUNCHES of shows.  From black and white Abbott and Costello to shows that were on TV just three days ago.

Ready to go to Vegas.  12 days.

Notified at work the other day that I was in the "Circle of Excellence" for the year.  Then I was told there would be an extra $562.50 in my check as a reward for it.  All this in the check right before going to Vegas.  Gotta love it.  Oh, did I mention I worked 24 hours of overtime last week that will be in the same check?  And I am so ready to go.

Mmm, George... I'll work 24 hours of overtime in a week if all I do is watch tv shows. How does one qualify for a job like that?...:)

It's a tough job, but someone has to do it.

Congratulations George...that is awesome...both the award and the $$$$$$.

You work many hours and deserve the bonuses!!!

Hugs....connie d

Good mornin', ya'll.

Well, we did it. We went and bought a sleep number bed. The feedback I got on here and on my Facebook was about 75% in favor of the bed. A friend of our son has one and we went there and slept in it Sat night (thanks Kim and Walt). We were very happy with it! Now we have to wait 2 weeks to get it!

So with our drive to Wilmington, a very dissappointing lunch at TGIFridays, the bed purchase (took quite while to try them all, etc), then a trip to Costco, another dissappointing meal at IHOP this time, we got home about 5:30. Luckily our grandson and his friend were here doing homework and helped us unload the $500 of groceries. The boys were working on assignments that were due before midnight. I guess even in college, they wait til the last second to get stuff done. On one of those Dr shows (Oz, or Phil, or someone), I heard that a person's brain isn't completely mature until the age of 25. I'm beginning to believe it!

PT this morning, and then pick up the RX for my DH's test strips at the base pharmacy. Then home and begin a Little Red Riding Hood Halloween costume. All my fleece quillows and blankets are done, done, done!!!

Everyone have a fantabulous day!
