Did you hand over the pup yet?

No, I'm quite peeved. It's a coworker of DH and he sent her an email on Thurs asking for time on Sat night, directions, and #. No response. Sent another one on Friday but he was off work and she never responded. Send a few messages through her My Space and no answer.

I thought maybe she's changed her mind but she was just at work this week telling people about all the stuff she bought for her

So, she's still here. I'm not sure I WANT her to have her but I'm going to give her the benefit of the doubt and assume something came up and she lost our number. We'll find out tomorrow.

I'm sticking with the queso and chips for dinner - I found a knock-off recipe of the Chili's one a few years ago that is tasty. It's in the crockpot and I can't wait for it to be ready. I'm hungry!

I stopped by the store on my way home to buy groceries. Nothing like shopping in stiletto heels. *rolls eyes* I think people thought I was nuts!

Too lazy to cook- DH off to pick up an order I called in for Super Shrimpburgers all the way (catsup and slaw) and an oyster plate.
Our area had their annual seafood festival this weekend and we dared not leave the house- driving gets crazy!

I'd give her the benefit of the doubt BUT I'd be very wary. You know more than most of us about dogs, especially the fact that you want to find a really good owner. I really hope it all works out for that adorable dog.

 

[TigerKat]

Gretchen - I hope y'all are doing OK, I know it's probably been a very busy weekend for you guys.

 

[TigerKat]

Can ya tell I'm back????? I found another old dessert recipe this weekend. If anyone likes German Chocolate Cake, you must try these - German Chocolate Cream Cheese Dessert bars. If anyone's interested let me know and I'll post it - they are heavenly!

Thanks, Kathy! Kathy's right, Becky it all looks great! All of a sudden I'm hungry. Fighting. the. urge. to. snack.

 

[Aimeedyan]

Becky, do you have a fry daddy or something like that? I have a hard time getting the breading to stay on my fried stuff when I fry things in a pan.

Looks delish.

 

[HERSEY]

I'm home! We had a great time and awsome food. We walked so much. I think I at least kept ahead of the caloric intake.. I have to get back to the laundry I'll catch up on all the posted tomorrow.

 

[Aimeedyan]

Hey guys - guess what?! I haven't craved ice in a WEEK! I noticed a few days ago that I wasn't keeping a cup of ice with me constantly so I started to pay attention to my "cravings."

It means my iron has gone up! So the infusion did something, not sure how long it'll last but I'm so glad it's improved some.

I think my energy levels have gone up, too, though it's hard to tell in such a short period of time. I have gotten more done lately, like I cleaned my entire office at work for 7 hours on Thursday.

Downside is now I'm dehydrated because I'm not drinking ANYTHING. I was getting lots of fluids through the ice. I do well if I drink water from a bottle so I may start investing in those again. They are just $$ but if it works...

Just had to share!

I'm glad you are back! It is not teh same here without you!

My oldest loves German Chocolate cake so I would like that recipe, thank you very much.

My husband is off today (Columbus Day, I love being married to a federal employee!!). My BIL is off too and we are going out for Mexican at lunch then coming home to waterproof our back deck again.

WFD at your house?

Hey guys - guess what?! I haven't craved ice in a WEEK! I noticed a few days ago that I wasn't keeping a cup of ice with me constantly so I started to pay attention to my "cravings."

I am on an iron supplement, too and my craving to graze (eat all day long) are GONE. I have lost, no kidding, an inch off my waistline in the past week and a half.

 

[Nancyg56]

Wendie- If you check in this morning I'm thinking of you!

Becky- Now you know that your house has got to be the "go to for outrageously good food for the game house". My goodness that looks good!

Aimee- if the bottled water works invest in them. Your health is worth it. Good to hear that your iron is up!

I feel badly about your puppy. It is so hard to know what to do.

Hersey- Welcome back!


WFD tonight is going to be leftovers. It is a busy day and now I see that Buster is limping, and I think it is the same leg that he had his ACL replaced a few years ago. I'll call the vet and see if I can bring him in later this afternoon after I get home from work. I hope it is just a strain, he can walk and the last time he could not.

 

[FormrCastMbr]

Good Morning!

Quickly checking in before Andrew and I head off to visit my Mom. I am making grilled chicken tonight and will serve with a tossed salad...

Wendie, Wishing you all the best today...

Kathy, glad you're back!

Janice, can't wait to hear about your trip!

Aimee, I hope everything works out with your sweet puppy. Keep in mind, things happen for a reason...

 

[HollyJoy]

There's a fundraiser for our school tonight, at Chick Fil-A, so guess that's what we'll be eating!
