    Wendy, good for you not waiting around for your DH to talk. Get out there girl and make new friends. Might find someone else in the same boat. I did read once that men don't like to talk facing each other and women do. If you notice, men will sit next to each other to talk. I've tried this and it does help. If I need to talk, I suggest a car ride. We aren't facing and he can't get up and leave. lol

    Terry - I think you are on the money about side by side talks and when they are held captive in the car, lol. B):D

    Hello ladies!!
    So I'm the wise one eh?? I did buy 6 huge bags f groceries for $145! That's pretty wise of me! Skinny Girls had a product being discontinued. It was 6 packets of truffles! Only $2.99, reg $5 so I have the now 5 packets in a mason jar for my pleasure!
    I also bought the two pack of organic red quinoa and brown rice, I can just microwave! The cups are 4.4 oz which seems a lot, so I'm having half for my portions. Another interesting item was orange juice with tumeric and probiotics in it! Hurrah for me!
    Lunch was 1 slice of 3 seed sourdough, with 3 turkey slices, 7 or so spinach leaves, with some cucumber spears. I feel like a model. I rock!
    I rec'd a huge plastic container with a lid that seals, awhile ago, and I use it for cereal. Bought some granola with bits of dried berries in it. I have a small plastic container in it for measuring. Its great on yogurt!

    I'm so sorry Sue, about your DGD. Its so tough, how to address issues like that carefully. My youngest son didn't do the cutting part, but he was addicted to porn. I remember having the most frank conversation with him. It was a coping mechanism with having a sick father. It dulled the mental pain of it all. By no means am I comparing one addiction with the other.
    He's better I suppose, now that he's at Nuke school and no time for that!

    Hugs everyone!

    Did an hour of the Biggest Loser Last Chance Workout. The plan for tomorrow is to go to the water aerobics class

    Becca - that rental looks so nice. 5 bedrooms! Oh, I know, you're getting ready for all you MFP friends to come visit. Got ja.

    Marcelyn - have you ever gone to walk.jog.fm/popular-workout-songs? From my recollection, they give you the bpms

    janetr - that's wonderful that you have such first-hand experience for Sue. I'm sure she'll have the same positive outcome that you had

    Laura - happy early birthday

    janetr - congrats on that fantastic weight loss

    How I wish we didn't have the time change. Mary - doesn't Arizona keep the same time? How do you deal with the change when you go somewhere? I just read that FL has introduced legislation to do away with the changing time which is great. Hope they do it. But that'll be really interesting when we go down there. katla - never say never. I never thought FL would even consider it.

    Karen in VA - thanks for the big smile on my face

    Rita - feel better fast

    Double Stuffed Oreos (some frozen) dunked in a tall glass of milk...almost as good as frozen Thin Mints dunked in milk

    Julie - congrats on the running

    I had a post all ready and something happened and I lost it.

    Exercised and then went to ACMoore to get rhinestones for my latest ceramic "creation", then to Aldi to get milk for Vince. Came home and then went to get the meeting supplies from the hubby who he and his wife set up for me last month. He wanted to just bring them to the next meeting, but there are some things that I need to take care of before the meeting. So I'm glad I have them.

    Cake decorating class tonight. I think I have most of the supplies packed in a bag to take with me.

    Yep, that is it! We can all build Lego's that my son has!!!

    Lanette - good luck on the job front!

    Just came back from the cake decorating class. I did learn a few things. The instructor told us to bring A LOT of things that we never used. She kept trying to get me to buy the Wilton already made icing. That stuff, to me, is NASTY. It may have the right consistency, but I'd be embarrassed to give it to anyone. I definitely prefer the homemade stuff. Why, I don't know, but the recipe that they give you, you have to water down. Why don't they just give you the recipe and have you add some extra water? I had some white icing left from the class and I think I'll just freeze it and use it for the next class (in addition to making more). If I tell the instructor that's what I'm doing or did, she'd have a fit. So I just won't tell her. I really made the icing Sat but I told her that I made it yesterday. I didn't have anywhere near the time. She thought I should have made it today.

    I admit that I had some of the icing. Homemade is so good compared to what you get at the store. I used some of hers for one thing and threw it away.

    Off to take a shower and then bed. Nite all.
