"Fall" into September Savings

We grew a few things in flower beds not finished yet, Tomoatoes (4 plants) red onion, from plants and 2 zucchini plants from seed. We got one zucchini, and have used about 4 tomatoes (nice huge ones, used 3 with pasta on Friday and shrimp and it was so good) 2 tomato plants didn't grow so well (at side of house so didn't get much sun with the zucchini plants so know not to use again) The red onion need to grow a little longer but we used one small one in our pasta Friday as well. Have to pick the tomatoes as they are huge and green but before they die. Happy with our tomato haul. Think next year I will do same, use grandmas garden. She offered this year but didn't get around to it. Will plant seeds inside for sure in March this year and really use her garden.

FBM you remind me of me 10 years ago before I got sick, now I have a hard time to make dinner....seriously!!! Gear down big truck (smile)

Just checking in to see how everyone is doing on their lazy susan challenge and or junk drawers....no fret....you ladies set your own deadlines....no pressure....as they say "k sera sera"

hey all went to dentist got a filling -frozen all over one side -tried to take a sip of water just now and dribbled down my one side -nope not yet
-jasper will ask my daughter for her recipe -she Is super busy with work thou - know she uses a special flour from Italy-uses her big food processor too
-wel I am going ahead with this gum surgery ( I meet with him on Wednesday)to try to correct what the last dentist screwed up-I wil be out of commission for 3 days-my friday night ad saturday was a write off-was using icepacks /heating pad took the painkillers-there are no guarantees with this surgery-lets hope-like my new dentist said its impeding your life now

Too funny-I went to the Indian visa office this morning and they said I was too early-I leave in 3 months! Anyway since I have to part with my passport for 2 weeks, I suddenly came up with a possible fictitious trip that I might have to make to the US in Oct/Nov and would need my passport back for travel!! Let's see if my little letter to the Indian consulate does the trick-and you never know when you may have to travel!-anyway hopefully my passport will arrive back with the visa !

Thanks Nancy, I did earlier this year, they said that I now have migraine, along with my high BP. Plus they did a MRI a few months ago and it was ok. I guess getting old doesn't help either.

I feel the same way - winter was WAY too long last year!

I'm keeping your husband in my prayers, hoping he is okay.

It's really cold inside here, I was just going to wait to warm things up when I put the oven on to make supper, but it's 3:30 and I think I'll turn on the heat now so it's warm in here when my husband comes home. I don't know whether he worked outside today or not.

Our temperature difference - I'm warm, he's cool - is even more pronounced now that he's lost weight since his injury - mind you, he's put on four pounds! YAY!
Gosh, I've been trying my best by cooking well, having some baking around - and, yes, being pushy with him. He just doesn't grasp the whole 'calories' concept, at all. He's only ever seen food as fuel. (oh, I wish!) I leave out peanuts and chips for him to snack on, but he just doesn't think to do it.

Absolutely correct Luv, hope your migraine(s) subside and give you some relief soon.

coupon girl I think you are making the best decision as you need to be able to use your mouth without being in constant or aggravated pain.

AND ps dh & I are starting our diets today. I personally slacked off since Easter I lost 20 lbs from Jan to easter then put 2lbs back over the summer with all the breads/carbs - hotdogs & burgers at the cottage.

It's a rare condition basically it's blocked sweat glands in my armpits (lol), had 1 set of botched surgeries, I now need to get the glands removed, hoping I can do 1 at a time but the surgeon will decide.

Hi all,

Had a little mishap on Friday (was supposed to go in to hospital for testing, so my transplant meds were changed a bit which unfortunately led to my blood pressure crashing). Ended up with a little trip via ambulance to the emergency ward and a little less than 24 hours of entertainment from screaming/crying patients. Sigh. Working towards getting back on my feet - good thing I have a dog that likes to help me and a cat who will boss me around and make sure I behave. :P

Needless to say, cleaning challenges are a bit delayed. Although I still have to finish emptying the laundry closet - powers that be are coming tomorrow (happy I had a day's delay). Fun times. :P

Hope everyone is well. :)

good gracious andit. take care of yourself.
im finally done all my projects, with two severely hot glued burned finger ends. OUCH.
so glad they are finished. for the first time tomorrow i can get up and not have to worry about doing one..
maybe life can get back to 'normal'.

Yipppeeee. Family room is complete. Took almost 2.5 hours but she is super clean. Curtains ar in washer and will be hung back up in morning. I'm pooped now.
