Time to start a new thread and begin numbering anew for 2012.
It was in the high 60s today and sunny.
This was work at JH day and now I have a load of laundry going. Nothing exciting, that's for sure.
Faye, I hope they get you straightened out soon! I know the baby things will be beautiful.
Jean, Jesus told us to help everyone, not just the ones that belong to our particular church. I doubt I could do a tanning booth. I'd be a crisp in 30 seconds and melanomia would be breaking out all over. You'll love the book Maggie is sending you.
Maggie, I haven't had jerky for a long time but I used to like it. Maybe I should look for it again. I love the creme burle smoothies. I was hoping they would have the white peppermint again at Christmas time.
Time for some dinner - have a great evening!

Good morning to you all. Going commissary shopping in about an hour so thought I would get in here and post real quick before we go. I have been knitting on the hat this morning and it is killing my hands. I am having to use size 3 circs, but knitting it straight then seaming when I am done. It is harder knitting with very small circular needles rather than double points for some reason. At least it is for me. I just want to get the hat done. I am anxious to do the booties, which looks like little girls shoes and socks.
Jean: Churches just cannot do what they used to because people don't go to church and when people don't go to church there is no money to help others even if they wish to. The people that come wanting money and such don't even darken the door of a church most of the time. It is like the people here who beg on all the corners. Fact is, most of them are scammers and make more money than most people. They beg for money and have signs that say they don't have money for groceries. I have offered to take them to Mcdonalds for a meal or to the grocery store to buy a few groceries and every time they get angry because they want the cash not the groceries, so I just quit. I give my money elsewhere. One of the things I do is when we stay in hotels I clear out the free hygiene stuff everyday. Then every couple years or so, I take a bunch of those little bottles of shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrushes, hand cream, etc, etc, to the mission or ywca. It isn't a lot, but it does provide folks with hygiene products that they need.
Susan: I was talking to Jack about the female stuff last night. My main concern is whether the procedure with actually solve the other problems. Day before yesterday, I started cramping and all of a sudden I was sweating and shaking to beat the band. I took some Advil and in about half an hour the other stuff stopped even though the cramping really didn't. So, I will be having a big discussion with the gyn next week about all of that too. I still think the main problem is hormones all over the place and I am not sure the ablation will solve anything but the bleeding, but I am going to get answers that's for sure. How is your foot coming along. You sound like you are becoming more and more mobile.
Well, I better get out of here so I can finish getting ready. Everyone have a wonderful day today. Faye
Good evening, ladies - 43 degrees and rain right now.
I have to work every day this week and then Saturday at WW. It's going to be a long week but I'll love taking the checks to the bank.
Faye, if this doc doesn't get you fixed, I think you should go see Dr. House. He diagnosis everything. LOL I do love that show. I hope they get you fixed soon. Love the baby things. You always do such a beautiful job.
Jean, I'm glad they are paying you for all the work you do there. I'm definitely with you on cereal leaving me hungry a short time later. It doesn't have enough protein for satiety, the carbs crash after an hour. If I have cereal, I have canadian bacon or turkey sausage with it.
Maggie, congrats on the weight loss. You are doing great.
I'm having BBQ Chicken, Baked Sweet Potato, and Broccoli for supper and it is ready. Have a great evening!
