Thanks, Janet. I never really thought past the "I LOVE DUMPLINGS" part of my statement... as ya know, I havn't made chick and dump. since BEFORE banding!! You are right, I wouldn't have room for more if I eat mychik first...dah... I guess I jsut remembered not being able to trust myself around it back then... Have a great visit with your Sister, if I'm not back on... Going SHOPPING in Michigan this weekend with a GF... SHe has ceiliac disease so can't eat a lot of anything with DAIRY, WHEAT etc... and no JUNK... yippee... it'll be like being with one of YOU guys!!! LOL PHyl: report girl, are you feeling back to normal? How is Earl? How is your little brainiac dog??? What is she making you do today? Twig is still at the Vet;s no word as of yet... I have a massage in about an hour so hopefully hear something soon. Karla: Did you get that paper done? I am so proud to have such a smart lady like you for a friend!! I am so in awe of you working on your masters.. Hell, I didn't finish college!!! Linda: in absentia... we miss you, but know that you are having one hell of a time with Mindy and Mel... Did you order me a Long Island Iced Tea??? Stephanie & Kerri... in case you ever lurk, we miss you too~:sneaky:

Phyl: How are you feeling tonight? Neck any better Janet: I love dumplings, but don't think I could stop at ONE right now!!! LOL

Hi Debbie, and thanks for keeping us updated on hubby's surgery... I am glad that it is over and behind him! I am sure you are too!!!! He is very lucky to have the support of a good women.. His pain will pass, and then onto Physio and Mushie foods! Yeh=haw!! Keep us posted on his progress:biggrin:

i ordered it from netrician, their price per j ar was the same , but shipping chgs were much less Phyl: I hope your neck is somewhat better today!! Keeping my fingers crossed for your appointment. YUP Janets chicken does sound yummy!!! O.k. true confession here.... since last THursday, I have been eating healthy again and have recommitted to my HEALTHY WEIGHT lOSS food plan. Thurs 21 Oct 1000 cals Fri 22 Oct 1151 Sat 23 Oct 753 Sun 24 Oct 1013 Mon 25 Oct 1219 Tues 26 Oct 1147 so far for today, 266 Cals... I didn`t want to say anything to anyone right away, until I had some time under my belt (no pun intended) cause I`ve started, and restarted so many times... that it just gets dreery... Plus, You guys are always so supportive, then when I crash and eat junk again .... then I feel like such a failure. I went and saw a counselor last week, we had a long chat... and she just asked me point blank, So why don`t you just get all the saline withdrawn from your Band and then eat ``to hell with it`` ?? Whoa, that was a good question.... so I decided that I do WANT MY BAND, I don`t want to go back to weighing 240 lbs... I want a healthier life... I don`t want to end up with weight related illnesses.... it was TIME to make a decision. I am trying to find a lapband support group in my area, but that is proving difficult..My clinic used to offer one, but cancelled it for lack of attendance. My counselor dosn`t know of an Eating Disorders Group in this area... so I just have to keep looking. I am buying myself FLOWERS every couple of days to visually REMIND me that I have chosen a healthier PATH... my personality NEEDS instant gratification, so hence the flowers.... hang what it costs, I was spending $5 - $7 a pay on crap anyways... for what!!! To make myself feel worse. SO NO MORE for TODAY... my mini goal is 10 lbs per month, and I think that is doable.

Thanks for the link Janet! I'll ck that out. TWIG is now overnight at the vets; he is dehydrated from not eating or drinking. She thinks he might have pancreatitis or Liver problems, he looked a bit YELLOW to her ( gums and insides of ears) also he could have LIME disease as he had a TICK when we came home from our trip to the US in May... so she is Xraying him, lots of blood work, IV drip... ck on him in the morning... this is gonna be $400-$500 so I hope it is only an infection of some sort that can be fixed with antibiotics!! If its anything worse, then we'll have to cross that hurdle. don't want to think about that right now:frown:

off to the vet see you later

I warned you that she was smarter than You and Earl!!!:laugh:

Best of luck with your surgery, wow to be able to see it all later... that would be so cool!!! I'd love to see that

My TWIG-man isn't feeling well either?!?!? Do dogs get virus's??? ANyways, he hasn't been able to keep any food down for a couple of days. When Peter went to give him cheez-whiz with his heart pill in it this a.m. he wouldn't take it. Wouldn't eat dinner either and I jacked it up with some canned food, and hot water... then just now he was lying on my lap tremmors thru his whold body for about 20 mins. and he's licking his lips alot (nausea I think)... Poor dude... I tried giving him some Cheez-whiz again and no luck...he turned his nose up at it... May have to call the vet in the a.m. .. we'll see how it goes. :thumbup:

:thumbup: Uh-oh Phyl, sounds like you got the FLU virus too! Tyl and muscle relax. great idea!! Push the fluids too and keep warm... ((((HUGS))))

I just read this on FACE BOOK, posted by an acquaintance of mine... it is so true. That I thought I``d share it with you all...on a friends passing. You can shed tears that she is gone, or you can smile because she has lived.You can close your eyes and pray that she'll come back,or you can open your eyes and see all she's left.Your heart can be empty because you can't see her,or you can...... be full of the love you shared.You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday, or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.You can remember her only that she is gone,or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back.Or you can do what she'd want:smile, open your eyes, love and go on.”

Still not feeling `well` today. Now my right eye is all red and sore. But I was feeling guilty cause Peter was outside doing all the raking and yard clean-up. So I got down on my hands and knees and cleaned out a HUGE cupboard in my kitchen. Its been driving both of us nuts lately... its my tupperware cupboard... erverytime you open it to find a container.... it all splects out onto the floor...you swear at it and slam the door shut.. vowing to do something about it... but you never doo.... its been gross for over a year!!! I threw out so much plastic, now «i m concerned about the landfill!!!! Making a nice oven supper tonight, Scalloped potatoes, and Baked chicken with stuffing on top... it is an easy recipe and always turns out nice. ANd the leftovers are tasty too. ah... back to the tupperware:rolleyes: I spent some of the day searching the UTUBE for some more songs to learn... I can listen right??? I need more FAST or up tempo songs, don`t want to sound like elevator music right??? John was dissappointed though we were supposed to have a rehersal tonight... thats not gonna happen.

Ha,ha, ha you wouldnt beleive our weather yesterday and today... 18 Celcius... o.k. thats almost 65 or 70 farenheit!!! WTF??? then I`ll bet next week we`ll be back to flurries again sheesh Oh Janet, I almost ordered it online yesterday too... but the shipping to Canada is $20 so I closed the onlinne screen. Then looked at where they sell it in the U.S. there is a store in central Michigan. And I am going on a Fabric shopping trip this weekend to Port Huron, MI.... now its 50 min drive from Pt. Huron, but there is ALSO a quilt store in the same town as the PB2 store... so I am going to try and buy some there.. Is it GOOD?? Worth the money??? Or should I just forget it??? I`d use it in shakes, and perhaps on crackers... let me know what you think of it before I spend my $$$$$`s

Whoo-hoo its gonna be a blast!!! But some confussion, I thought I read that Linda gets in on MONDAY? I probalby missed an email or something. Rested all day, drinking tea and warm soup for lunch, prot. bar for breaky... stil can't talk:mad: Phoned my Drs office, and she said she didn't wnt to see me unless I spiked a fever... its a virus... just deal with it.. Peter called me once today, from the polling station, it was 3 oclock and the 1st break he had had....:huh2: Linda arrives Monday 14th Mar, I get there Sunday 13th of March*** just checked Hotmail confirmation.

trying to book my flight with air miles... gosh it takes forever o.k. now back,.. finally got it done... Toronto to Palm Springs, SUn 13th March @ 13:45 or 1:45 p.m. in the afternoon. FLy home to Toronto MONDAY 21 March, depart Palm Springs 20:16 or 8:16 p.m. in the evening, fly to LAX, then San Fransico, then Toronto.. its a horrible itinerary home but I'll have 8 hours to kill in S.F.during the night... oh I'd better bring a good book!!! Land in Toronto Tues 22 Mar @ 3:30 in the afternoon. SO Janet; I tried so many masinations of dates and times and this was all that was available.. but at least you won't have to miss work to drive me to the airport :-) There, its for REAL now... I am coming to California!! Whoo-hoo , whoot=whoot... now I have to tell Peter sometime,when he is in a really good mood!!!! HA,hA<hA<

Well, after all that planning and training.. I am sitting here in front of the puter... when I should be working the Election!!! After yesterdays gig, my chest started hurting(hasn't felt right in a couple of days) and I lost my voice...and I mean completely!! It's not sore... just vocal chords must be so swollen from a virus they just will not vibrate to make sound. Glad it didn't happen yest. but I am dissappointed in missing the election. PLUS, they will be short handed at the arena... and then people voting will get CRANKY standing in line. Poor Peter is there now, polls opened 30 mins ago and he'll be there until 8 p.m. tonight when they close. Karla: We have to buy Paper leaf bags, rake up all our stuff, amd take the bags to the curb, the town will then have a collection crew come by and take them to the town COMPOST site... once composted they sell back the mulch to the people in town who want it for gardens. We usually have at least 30 bags, no way we could afford to take them all to the dump ourselves. We are not allowed to burn either. We are allowed only 1 bad of trash per week per household, then we have a GREY Bin for PAPER recycles, and a BLUE Box for all other recycles, then we have GREEN bin for kitchen refuse and waste/organic... ITs quite complicated... but its a good cause.. all buckets are picked up at the curb. Off to gargle some salt water!!!

Definetly, go to the party and land some HUNK, besides... you don`t have to go all the way to 3rd base .... just neck and fool around.... make him wait for it.... until JAN 2011 :blushing:

Its o.k. there is never enough bragging.... plus once I get a wee one, just TRY and shut me up!!!:blushing: Yummmm margaritas;;;; oh joy oh bliss!!! Hate the salt afterwards though... but I am sure your food was just o.k.... don`t sweat it! How is Earl feeling today?? Still gettinnhg a bit stronger each day?? Just got home from our afternoon gig at Kokomo Beanz Cafe... the JazzBassic gig went really well, she`s booked us again in NOV and DEC... whoot,whoot... had a steady bunch of customers once they came in to get coffeeélunch... t hey stayed and stayed... had lots of possitive feedback!!! Here``s some pictures that my GF took and put up on FB

this is a pic of my SISter(tall one) and my 2 cousins (outsides) taken at my hubbies Bday

O.k. now my interest is piqued... how manya cals, pro, fat, sugar grams does this PB2 have compared to regular Peanut Butter??? which is 94 cal/Tbspn ????

Gosh, I feel so bad for you gals... I always use my CC when traveling...its just my habit not to carry any cash... then I always have my statement to SHOW me where and on what I spent my money at the end of the month. I nearly mad it to - to go with you all to Vegas... I know it would have been a blast... Janet and Phyl and still talking about it... (I'm their friend from the lucky 7s thread) Anyways, I hope you all get straightened out and get all of your money back a.s.a.p. HUGS, Candice
