Charming, I am very sorry for your loss!

Wednesday was my daughters heart ablation surgery. She went in at 11 and didn't come out until almost 5PM. The ablation wasn't successful. The area they needed to get to was way on the back of the heart. They tried to go through veins with the catheter and then her femoral artery. So the bad news is, she will need the surgery in another 6 months. They did ablate some areas and want her heart to heal. They also didn't tell me she was going to the cardiac ICU.

We came home yesterday and I made her fried chicken and her favorite mashed potatoes. She goes back to school on Monday. She is home resting and wants to go trick or treating tomorrow.

In the meantime, I made some Amish Friendship Bread today: http://tinkmomfoodie-foodobsession.blogspot.com/2013/10/amish-friendship-bread.html

Tinkmom2 - glad to hear you daughter is back home and doing better. Sounds like you have had a tough week.. Hope things get back to normal soon for you.

We are planning a last minute trip to Disney for Thanksgiving. Everyone can go this trip and I am so happy. It has been a long time since we have been able to get all the kids together for a trip. So between the girls college and jobs, we were able to squeeze in a time that worked for everyone. We are all really looking forward to it. Plus, we have not been during the holidays so we can't wait to see all the decorations!

On to the menu plan:
Saturday - Salisbury steak over rice with italian veggies (zucchini/red peppers/tomatoes)
Sunday - Chicken pot pie (rolled from last week as I did not get to make it)
Monday - Angel chicken over pasta / creamed spinach
Tuesday - Keilbasa sausage, potatoes and cabbage bake
Wednesday - leftovers
Thursday - Halloween!! Hot dogs, chips and baked beans
Friday - Chicken, mashed potatoes, coleslaw, green beans and biscuits

I'm so sorry, Charming.

I haven't posted much, but we are still trying to stick to not eating out too much. Every other Tuesday we have to go to my hometown to do grocery shopping for my home bound mother. We usually just grab something to eat in the car on the way home. Fridays are always something out, but fairly inexpensive. Sometimes, it's a frozen pizza.

Tonight-fend for yourself
Sunday/Tuesday-vegetable soup and grilled cheese
Monday-daughter has class late, so I'll just do something on my own
Wednesday-breakfast
Thursday-????

 

[purpledisneyprncess]

Saturday I made beef stir fry over brown rice.

Today- rice, cheese and bean quesadillas.

Monday- chicken and dumplings!

Tuesday- left overs from Monday

Wednesday- pasta

Thursday- Halloween!! Normally I make chili every Halloween but this year we might just grab a pizza.

Charming, you are in my thoughts. I am so sorry for your loss. If there is anything I can do, please let me know.

I really need to get around to eating better. The meds I am on make it SO hard to get up in the mornings so I am usually not eating lunch until 2ish (like I am right now). This means I am not hungry for dinner until later and then I am too tired to get off my behind to actually MAKE dinner. I need to stop that.

On the upside, I have a new med called Prelief that helps with the acid in many foods. As long as I don't go overboard I can now have fresh tomatoes (like 1 slice on a burger), mayo, citric acid, and many cheeses again. It has been a lifesaver!

Sunday: Grilled Vegetable Sandwich and Soup
Monday: Frozen Chicken Pot Pie
Tuesday: Omelet and Biscuits
Wednesday: Leftovers
Thursday: Chicken Tenders and Sugar Snap Peas
Friday: Frozen Lasagna
Saturday: Pork Chops, Baked Sweet Potato, Brussel Sprouts
Sunday: Alfredo with Shrimp and Peas
