Good Morning

As all of you know Jeanne cameup the coast and I am so very glad dthat I do not live in Florida. If i did live there I would think very hard about moving. Here in SC I have a huge ditch to one side of my house and that ditch was full and nearly overflowed.

Today is going to be nice but then we are supposed to get more rain the rest of this week. I think today I need to mow some. The front of our property is looking very ragged. If I do not mow then I will do a 4 mile walk. But I am thinking I need to go ahead and do the mowing before it gets any higher.

Where is everyone? I missed you all while I was unable to get on here. Thanks again, Sis, for filling in for me while I was gone.

My menu for today--------

breakfast- oatmeal, juice

lunch-sub (ok I know that is not a diet type lunch but dh bought it for me yesterday for supper and I had eaten a heavy snack, cheese and pepperoni on ritz crackers, earlier and just did not want anything else to eat , so I saved it for today.)

supper- steamed brussel sprouts, okra, grilled squash, turnips, chicken and sauce over pasta

snack- homemade trail mix.

exercise- either mowing or a 4 mile walk and 15 minutes on the weight machine.

I will check in later

have a great day everyone.

Hi Just thought i would check in and let you know what is going on here.

It was looking very cloudy so I did a 4 mile walk tape and the 15 minutes on the weight machine. and started working on my computer. It had been reformatted and so I was trying to get all of my favorite sites back in my "favorites".

I had my oatmeal and juice earlier for breakfast and I just finished my sub, It was a 6inch sup not the foot long one. Now the sun is coming out and I may still decide to go out and mow this afternoon. I am not real tired and I think I can do it. Anyway it needs to be mowed today because the forecast is calling for more rain for the next several days.

I hope everyone is have a nice day

I will check in later.

I did some mowing, it was a little bit hard on me but i am not sure if it was because I had already done some exercising and my body was tired or if it was because I got some overheated. In any event I mowed came in and took a very cool bath to cool down quickly and took some advil and the headache eased off. I am fine now.

I had a very good weight loss and exercise day. I wonder how brussel sprouts would taste if I grilled them. I think the next time I want some I am going to grill them. Anyone know how to grill brussel sprouts, or have a different way to cook them. All I have ever done is boil them and I like them but I am ready for a change. I don't want to add a lot of fattening stuff to them , but I do want them fixed a different way.

Have a good sleep everyone

Talk to you tomorrow.

sorry - can't help you out on the brussels sprouts thing, Audra. They are #2 on the very, very short list of veggies I don't like, onions being #1.
