Happy Wednesday!
Good morning my OFF sistas!
It's Jan 2nd and no more excuses! The holidays are officially over now. I did MUCH better with my eating yesterday. Almost had no sugar at all. I will try again today. My goal is zero sugar again. Hard to do.
Today we start our round of doctor's appts for Butch. First today is the dermatologist. My poor DH has worked outdoors his whole life. I know if the skin doctor found skin cancers on me, he will find more on Butch. Best to deal with them now.
Then we are going to the eyeglass place to pick out new frames for him. He already has his new prescription.
Yesterday Chris and I went shopping for a big boy bed for Benny. We're buying one of those youth beds that helps to transition between the crib and a regular bed. It uses the same mattress as the crib for now. The store didn't have one in stock, so they're shipping it to us. About 2 weeks, which is actually good. Give me time to paint his bedroom and clean the carpet in there.
We also bought material to make some new sheets for his little bed. Chris has picked a jungle theme for his big boy room. It will be fun to do some sewing again.
Hope everyone had a good New Years Day yesterday. Did you all eat your peas and greens? LOL! I'll be making Pot Likker soup for our dinner today. Yum!
Love you all!

I am much happier with my knee walker now. I'm still in a funk, but slowly crawling out of it.
Today is just another day of keeping my foot elevated and using up my data plan on my iPhone. I forgot to pack my journal for my stay here. I get so much relief in writing.
Well, I need a second cup of coffee, so I'm heading to the kitchen and then to get dressed. So, I must ride out to the kitchen.
Hugs,

Good Morning Vickie and OFF Family,
Vickie, I too have to get back to eating right. I did pretty good yesterday, but today will be better. Back to tracking what I'm eating. Sounds like fun decorating Benny's bedroom.
Trish, keep on getting better day by day.
For me it is lunch today with a girl friend and then laundry. Lunch will be lots of fun.
Hope everyone has had a great start to the new year!
Hugs and prayers to all, Sandra

Sandra and Connie--I did better today. I did have a York peppermint patty, but that was to get rid of the raw onion taste in my mouth! Uck. If I had had a SF peppermint, I would have used that. I need to remember to pick some of those up and keep them in my purse. Other than that, I've stayed on track today. Pot Likker soup for dinner tonight. Yum, yum--and no guilt! :)

Hello...well I am not in a good mood now...Last night about 9 Rick said he found water in the kitchen floor!! Pulled out our stove to check ho****er tank...nope not ours...called Carol who lives behind us and said Rick would be right over to look for a leak. Yes it was her ho****er tank!! Leaking like a stuck pig!!!! Sooooooooo our new wood flooring is all buckled today and needs to be replaced. Then I get a call from one of my tenants kids telling me she is mailing me her mothers check for rent. OK. Said her mother was just told she had cancer. This poor woman has had so much go wrong in the last several months and now this. About 45 minutes later the daughter calls me back...her mom just passed away!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am heart broken. Can't take much more today to go wrong!!!!
Vic hope they find no cancer on Butch!!
Trish get some paper and write...
To the rest I am sorry I forgot who else posted...CR****s me.
Back to work taking in rent checks...
Thoughts and Prayers for ALL that need them!!!
