    Good morning,went for a short walk will be going out again later Annie doesn't like the wind so we came home it was pretty windy I was actually cold which doesn't happen to often. My knee is a little sore today so I won't be going on the treadmill maybe just a nice walk around town. I have some things I need to get done so I will stay in Trenton today. Jo I don't know if I would trust myself around the strawberry's it sounds so good. How is the hubby's cold I had my cough for months I think I just got rid of it.Vix it is always nice to have a choice of exercise .Roger have a nice walk

    Hi Irene
    It isn't Just Annie that does not like the snow :)

    I find that I can not trust myself with so many foods :(

    Good Luck with the Knee

    Good afternoon;
    Roger-We got a couple of inches of snow. After I leave this thread, I will check out the humor.
    Irene-Do you think walking and doing the treadmill in the same day makes your knee sore?
    Vix-Good luck at the dr.
    Have a good afternoon. :)

    Hi all.
    Roger, I was picturing something like chicken pieces on long skewers tied together in a vase, with ribbon bows between the pieces of chicken on each skewer! haha, chicken instead of flowers!
    As for the functional Dr's diet. I've lost 2 of the pounds I gained over the holidays, and I am feeling a little less pain. My digestive system seems to be normalizing. I've been on it a week. Today, I got some supplements to help with energy, provide some antioxidants, and to replace my probiotic, which had a lot of additives. This is going to be a long process. It may take a year or two, but I should feel better and better as it goes along. Here's hoping it works. :)

    Hi
    I was out walking today and hit 8468 steps :) The temperature is 27 degrees vs 32 degrees yesterday, add in that there is a occasional slight breeze and :(

    We should get into the 40s today, a little warmer tomorrow and up to 60 + Sunday and then back into the 50s for next week. So we will be having warmer than normal weather, According to the weather forecast last night, the weather they are having in the Soith should be moving northward over the next few days.

    Have a Great Friday
    Roger

    Hi Irene
    My next order processes the 2nd week of March due to my delaying it. I still have too much food from adding on A La Carte items from previous orders. I have some dinner pouches I need to use up before they expire in March. That should not be a problem however I have so many snack items :(

    Enjoy the Walk
    Have a Nice Day

    Hi Vix
    The Chicken Bouquet was interesting however...

    I am glad to hear that the diet change is helping and that You are down 2 pounds too, That Holiday weight is tough.

    Good Luck

    Good morning;
    Vix-congrats on losing 2 lbs.
    Roger-we should hit 50 degrees on Sunday and melt some of this snow.
    I plan to delay my next order as I have a lot of food from getting the wrong order.
    Irene-It does feel good getting back on plan.
    Today was my short day at work, only 4 hours. I then went grocery shopping. I roasted some brussel sprouts and steamed some bok choy for todays veggies.
    Next is cleaning the bathrooms and dust mopping the floors and vacuuming. I am tired just thinking about it. :p
    Enjoy your day. :)

    Good morning.
    We're supposed to be getting up to 46 today and 65 tomorrow. Thanks all. I feel like the tin man today, all stiff! Back from zumba. Taking some new supplements today.
    Jo, I would be tired thinking about your day too! I just want to change the sheets, do some laundry, and have an appt with the chiropractor later.
    Roger, I used to walk all year long, but don't want to walk in the cold anymore. You D Man!
    Irene, good for you for getting back on plan.
    Have a great day, everyone. :)

    Hi Joanne
    I'm happy to see warmer weather here too. I can use a break on the heating expense.

    I routinely do the delay thing and then if I feel the need I can move it closer. It is easier to do that for me. Only 20 days until the next order now and I can not delay it further either.

    I found it amazing that the Strawberry breakfast crepe was just introduced and now shows as discontinued already.

    Have a Good Evening

    Hi Vix
    I find that the cold takes it out of You speedily too. I do not blame You for not doing it.

    I hope You loosen up quickly, yea for warmer weather.

    Good Luck with the new supplements

    Meridian man's pet squirrel goes nuts on burglar
    From Here:
    http://www.kivitv.com/news/meridian-mans-pet-squirrel-goes-nuts-on-burglar

    Adam Pearl walked into his Meridian home Tuesday and realized something didn't seem right.

    "I came in the front door and I saw snow prints out in the front driveway going to the back of the house, so I thought something was awry because no one usually goes through the yard," said Pearl.

    Pearl was immediately greeted by his pet squirrel Joey when he got home, but the he started noticing a few doors that would normally be closed were open.

    After making his way to the back bedroom, his fear was confirmed once he stated looking at his gun safe.

    "I started looking at it and saw the scratches that are around the locking area and at that point I knew somebody was definitely in here messing around," explained Pearl.

    Pearl called Meridian Police and when officer Ashley Turner came out to take a look, Joey just had to say hello.

    "During her investigations Joey had run in the bedroom just screwing around like he always does between her legs and kind of startled her," explained Pearl. She says whoa, what was that, and I said ahhh don't worry about that, that's just Joey, my pet squirrel ya know."

    Officer Turner asked Pearl if Joey would bite.

    "I said, well, he usually doesn't bite but you never know cause he is a squirrel," replied Pearl.

    Officer Turner went on her way, only to return a few hours later with some of his stolen belongings and some unbelievable news.

    "She said while she was questioning the individual he had scratches on his hands so she asked him 'did you get that from the squirrel' and he says yeah, damn thing kept attacking me and wouldn't stop until I left," said Pearl.

    Now Joey is being hailed a hero.

    "Nobody can believe it because who can say they have a squirrel that guards their house, which is crazy," said Pearl. "You can't ask for much more than that. He is a pain in the butt, but he is great."

    Pearl said he thanked Joey by giving him his favorite treat, the candy whoppers!

    Was such a beautiful day here, we went to the park twice and walked around it. Didn't even need a jacket. Amazing for Feb 18th, usually freezing our tootsies off this time of year!
    Congratulations on your winnings, Jo!

    Cloudy this morning, but should be another beautiful sunny day later.
    Going to lunch/brunch with son, girlfriend, and her parents today. Should be fun, but am a little concerned about my current limited food choices, don't want awkward! We've met the parents briefly before (chance run in at the airport), but this is the first real meet up. Things are moving forward. :)
    Happy Sunday!

    Hi
    I was out walking today and hit 8,859steps. The temperature is 47 degrees vs 31 degrees yesterday and very nice for walking too.

    I stopped for a light Breakfast while walking and had two Eggs, a slice of Bacon, a small slice of Ham and some Rye toast. I packaged up The Large Breakfast Sausage, Slice of Bacon and Home Fries and brought them home where my Brother will use them. He likes those Fat sausages, I never did. I bought that special since I felt like a taste of Bacon and Ham :)

    Then I stopped at the grocery Store for three Bananas, Gala Apples and Bartlett Pears + saving 10cents for using the discount Key tag. I also looked at the price on shredded Wheat Whole Wheat & Bran Spoon size and made a note of the price so my brother can compare it with the Shop Rite price when he heads over there later. Whichever is cheaper will be the key, ShopRite Price or Local Grocery Store @ $3.89 - 10% on Wednesday when I stop there for more Bananas.

    Have a Great Sunday

    50-50 Clouds and Blue Sky right now here already. Much more than when I headed out walking where it was 95% clouds.

    Enjoy the Brunch

    The only snow left here is where the Plows pushed it into large piles.

    Have a Nice Day

    The weather is very good for February, I am enjoying it.

    The problem I have found with Chinese is water retention for a couple of days to to a high sodium level in the sauces. Good Luck with it.

    New Carpet is always nice. I was happy enough when we had Stanley Steamer in to clean ours, New must be even better.

    Enjoy the Weather

    Good morning;
    It is currently 55 degrees. I am headed out in a little while to enjoy the nice weather.
    I worked this morning and am now doing laundry and just finished washing the kitchen floor.
    We seem to track in a lot of salt and sand from outside.
    Vix-Have fun at brunch. I hope you are able to find something to eat that is on your diet.
    Roger-I don't care for breakfast sausages. To me they have a taste like perfume.
    Irene-Congrats on the new carpet. I bet your house looks amazing with all the work you have done.
    Enjoy this nice weather. :)

    Hi
    I was out walking today and hit 8,058 steps. The temperature is 45 degrees vs 47 degrees yesterday and very nice for walking too.
    Here in NJ many areas had record warmth, I saw a bunch of 68 degree reports and one higher at 69 degrees. So strange for February.

    yesterdays light Breakfast while walking does not seem to have had any impact as far as weight gain when I scaled myself this morning :)

    Have a Great Monday AKA Presidents Day
    Roger

    P.S. New Humor Today, Sorry I did not have any Presidential Humor for the day.

    Hi Joanne
    I have indeed been enjoying the warm weather yesterday & today :)

    I do not like those Big fat Breakfast Sausages, I do like the little links such as Jones Dairy Farm sells however.

    You do seem to keep busy, can I guess from where You say we seem to track in a lot of salt & sand that You do not have a Mud Room? We have a small Enclosed porch that serves that purpose here.
