wow petra, those are some great sites! surprisingly there are a number of places in sc listed on eatwild.com. unfortunately none are local. not sure I can eat rabbit as we used to keep them as pets. I do eat bison, love lamb, and have had pheasant that was shot and cooked by one of my high school boyfriends. He couldn't talk me into trying the squirrel though!

I ran out of my metformin last week so not only is my sugar up, but according to the crazy home scale it looks like I've gained back 6lbs : ( I'm hoping it's lying. It's not going to take much more in the way of bad news to make me crawl under my bed and refuse to come out!

I hope everyone is having a great weekend!

woo-hoo, just jumped back on the crazy scale after breakfast and a shower. I dropped 3 lbs in 60 mins : ) go me!

So glad you ended up liking the goat - good to know it's one you can add to your list

I love (loved!) Gap, but can't fit in them right now...so thrilled you can be a Gap girl and things fit well! I like the simplicity of the style and basics

I realized all my jammie pants are getting way loose on me...(probably because i stretched the elastic beyond comprehension, hahahah) and need to replace them

Kathi - hope you get your RX filled soon

Kathi-when my scale does that crazy stuff it usually means its time for new batteries.

Can I just share with you how I have spent the afternoon?? My DSs somehow dropped a 2 liter bottle of Coke on the floor, the impact broke the cap and sugary soda went shooting everywhere. Everywhere!! So, I have spent the afternoon cleaning the cabinets, cleaning the back splash, cleaning the range, cleaning the stools around the island, cleaning the floor, cleaning the chairs, cleaning the refrigerator, and yes, even cleaning the ceiling!

This just sucked! And, to make matters worse, my MIL was visiting at the time, and so after a quick wipe-up of everything with beach towels we went back and finished our visit so by the time I finally got to it, everything was a sticky mess!

The boys of course offered to help, but that would only make it worse. So I made them stay upstairs and be quiet while the cat and I took care of business. I do admit that I "rewarded" myself with a cookie and a dish of ice cream before allowing them downstairs again. Now my stomach feels icky; I shouldn't have done that. BUT, I stopped myself from having a 2nd cookie and/or a 2nd dish of ice cream, which did take a lot of work. So, that's good at least.

And the good news at least was that my floor really needed a good hands-and-knees cleaning and the kitchen sure looks nice now!

We've all agreed (including MIL) that we can't tell DH... If he had been home, oh my, there would have been a lot of anger let loose... I'm amazed by how well I held it together when I saw the extent of the mess, quite frankly. But, I KNEW how much work it was going to be to get it all cleaned up, and boy was I right!

Hi everyone, missed a lot over the past days...missed everyone! Will catch up and join in next week. Am recuperating from what was the worst throat infection I have ever had, the upside? Another 2 lb loss, I hope it sticks, but not counting on it with the steroids I must take until Tuesday. But for now since it is my "official" weigh in day, I am taking it. Take care, see you next week.

Oh Neweaf, hugs to you!!! You did great with your restraint in all areas! I actually read your post to my DH and he sends you hugs too.

Hi All,

Well I haven't been very good at posting much, but my weight loss is coming along. I've lost 14 lbs since Jan 3rd! First week was horrible with headaches, but now I'm not craving sugar or caffiene! Took myself off both. Eating smarter and smaller portions.

Way to go Lori Ann!!!!
Oh no Newleaf, what a rough day : (

I'm going to pop over and start this weeks thread : ) happy monday!
