Good mornin' ya'll.
Yep, Monday and fall is in the air. I love Fall and Spring! Everything feels so fresh. These are the only seasons we can have the windows open here. No humidity so we can walk outside and not be rushing to another air conditioned space. Football is in the air.
Enough of the weather. DIL and I went to Han**** Fabrics to decide on fabric for her couch. Then we came home to figure out how much she needs. Wednesday seniors get 15% off an entire purchase and I think that includes items on sale. The fabric she wants is 40% off. So I will go pick it all up Wed.
After the fabric store we went to the movies on base to watch 'The Help'. It was good, but as usual I liked to book better. On base a movie ticket costs $2, then between 3 of us, we got 2 small popcorns, 2 large drinks, nachos with extra cheese and milk duds for $11. Can't beat it!
I am really loving this sleeve, BUT, I still have lost no weight! I am doing my treadmill every morning and my ellipticle every night. I am still on full liquids (cream soups, etc). I can only drink about 1/4 to 1/2 cup at a time. I'm feeling the problem is not getting enough calories. I need to work on that!!
I'm sorry, but I have to say I think there was a big mistake made in
the court case in Italy four years ago. I hope they let that poor girl go home today.
Judy, I hope your back is better now. Take care of yourself.
Have a fantabulous day!!

Caroline, after 6 years as of Wed. I still have a hard time getting enough calories. I had the rny & with DH gone this week I forget to eat. Yesterday I made sure I ate. Down 1/2 # today. I would guess I still get less than 1000 calories on any given day.
Yesterday I made apple butter. I got 19 pints. I couldn't believe it. I got a lot of requests for it this year so it is a good thing. Today I will pick up 2 bushels of apples for applesauce. I beed to take at least a dozen to Texas to the girls. I use courtlands & need very little sugar, maybe a cup for 6 quarts of apples. I also dry some apples, no sugar. Hard to believe my week alone is almost over. I sure have enjoyed it, but am ready for DH to come home. Vicki, you must be a strong woman for all the time your DH is gone. I admire you!!!
Have a wonderful day all!

Oh yum! Apple butter and applesauce! I'm so jealous! I tried to have apples here, but the only kind that will live this far south are granny smiths. And then it got so hot that I lost my tree a few years ago.
Don't you wish we could do a fruit exchange??? I could send you figs and peaches; you could send me cherries and apples!

Nancy,
I love making homemade applesauce. I was taught to make it for the freezer. I don't puree mine, so it is lumpy, which I prefer. The last batch I made were with Honey Crisps, and they were perfect with a tiny bit of Splenda and a touch of cinnamon.
Enjoy your cooking projects.
Hugs,
Trish

Seek always to do some good, somewhere. Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth. You must give some time to your fellow man. For remember, you don't live in a world all your own. Your brothers are here too.

Hey Grammylew,
You are a sweetheart to work on the slipcovers. I hope they are easy for you. My sister needs curtains in her kitchen/dining room area, and has yet to take me to Joanns for the fabric. In the meantime, I have enough projects to keep me off the streets and out of trouble.
Being five years out from my rny, I am struggling with getting back on track with my diet and weight loss. Old habits came back with a vengeance. I saw my surgeon last week, and got some guidelines, and will implement them after I have my toe surgery, and can get back to exercising and get done cleaning out my freezer of old stuff I stored ages ago. The guidelines include a two week liquid protein diet, similar to right after surgery.
Take care.
Hugs,
Trish

A cool good morning to you, Shirley, and my OFF sistas!
Fall is a glorious relief from our terrible triple digit summer! I love waking up in the cool crisp air!
Much to do today. Hubby is up and getting ready for his first doctor visit at 8 a.m. He's grumpy because he's having bloodwork done and can't have his coffee this morning. I told him I would have a nice breakfast ready for him when he gets home.
I have the dentist at 11:30 a.m. Just teeth cleaning, but I'm also supposed to start my whitening process today, too. I may not can have my 20 year old body back again, but I can have white teeth!
Hubby also has dentist today, and then we are going to the Eye doctor to pick out new frames for some new glasses for him. Our eye glass store has FINALLY started accepting our eye insurance plan. I got new sunglasses (Ralph Lauren frames, no less) for $35! whoop!
Got my to-do list almost knocked out. Still plugging away at my defensive driving class on-line. Gosh, what a pain in the butt! They give you X amount of minutes to complete each section, but I read very quickly. I can finish the section in way fewer minutes than they allot, but I can't move on to the next section until all the minutes have been used up, so they just start you over on the same section again. Argh! I've learned to play games of Solitaire in the middle of each section to make the time go by more quickly.
Caroline, somehow I knew you were going to do that couch cover! You are a sweetheart. But, please, do listen to your body, and if it gets to be too much, your DIL will understand. No point in making yourself ill. Okay?
Hope you will all have a good beginning to a great week!
Love you all!
Vickie
