Good Morning OFF,
Sorry I was AWOL Friday. Frankie came over, and we took Gigi, my Mom, to the children's museum in Lansing. Frankie loves it there. Plus, the current exhibit there is Hot Wheels, so he had a blast.
Today, he and Lincoln ran the Kids' Mile in the PerryFest race. Lincoln came in first. Frankie finished. Izzy didn't run coz she is supposed to have a soccer game this afternoon. Since it's raining, that may not happen.
Breakfast: Bran Muffin
Snack: Banana
Lunch: Ham and cheese sandwich
Snack: Peach
Dinner: Pot roast, potatoes, carrots
Snack: No sugar added frozen yogurt.
Hugs,

Hi Kathy,
I grew up in Michigan. Benton Harbor to be exact. I lived in Chicago when I was single and worked in the hospitals. Met my husband and we were transferred to Colorado. We lived in the Denver area for 24 years. I got tired of the cold and snow. So Carl and I made a hasty decision to move to Florida in 07. I'll never move back to Chicago where my kids are, but I'll come to visit.

Nice to hear from both you old timers!
Carla, as much as you travel it's no wonder you don't know what day it is! Did you retire to Florida? I think I remember you saying you were from Michigan which would make sense for why your daughter is in a close by area. Do you ever think of moving North again... especially when the traveling gets to be too much?
Jen, nice to hear from you...it's been awhile! We all have some demon that can keep us from our goals...if I drank it would be wine, too, given the grape binges I have been on!
I have to hold myself accountable by posting my food. I did pretty good all wee****il today...then my husband baked a yellow apple cake!
B - protein drink
S - sausage patty
L - cod & some grapes
D - goulash & cake

OK , am one of those reading. Nothing to contribute, not losing weight as drinking wine. Empty very enjoyable calories.
Love Eileen's postings about her newspaper career. Hoping for more as am adicted.
Posting now because we need followers..am one of them.

BTW HARVEST MOON tonight...if you have a clear sky where you are, enjoy !
I seem to not know the days of the week!
Im here still in the Chicago area. Today I have both of my Grandchildren. My daughter usually takes Henson to the sitter and I just keep Vinnie. But I decided to keep Henson today as well.
We will be here another ten days. Then I will be more than ready to go home!
What is everyone up too?

Hi Trish!
Good to hear from you. Hope you are enjoying your mom in your own space without your sister making things difficult!
How is your foot?
Yvonne. I wish I liked cottage cheese & carrots. I am such a picky eater & can't stand alot of good foods others enjoy like yogurt, cottage cheese & veggies. I will eat vegetables in soups or stews, but literally gag on them by themselves This limits my food choices...ugh!
I went for a job interview this afternoon only bc my sister in law got involved. It was right up my alley, but full-time which I don't want & the pay was awful w/no benefits. I might have considered it if the pay & benefits were good, but this was ridiculous.
I enjoy my current job, but can't get 20 hours week which was my goal. I've been doing 15 which I can manage on. Just hope my current case doesn't end in the foreseeable future & I don't get a new one for a week or two. That is what hurts me.
Still pretty much on point w my meal plan despite having a 2nd protein bar today. My carbs are still going down so that is my plan as well as keeping my calories down.
B - protein shake
S - protein bar
L - grilled cheese
S - protein bar
D - teriyaki chicken stir fry
Everyone have a good nite.

Good Morning OFF,ice
Sorry I didn't check in Wednesday. I meant to in the afternoon, but got busy with Mom and picking up Utley from the dogsitter.
Jeannie, I love shopping thrift stores. When I was home in August, I took Mom to the Salvation Army store on half price day. Found two adorable dresses for like $4 each. One from Justice, which Colleen and Izzy had seen and love. The other from Gap. Both in excellent condition. I need to take her to the one out here.
We went to Colleen's for dinner, and stayed to watch Izzy and Franklin while she took Lincoln to soccer. What fun.
Not sure what my meals will be yet. Mom sleeps in so while I eat lunch, she eats breakfast.
Hugs,
Trish
