jteef1,
thank you all for prayers and support! the rollercoaster of pain continues. the house looks ransacked by a hurricane and i have houseguests coming thursday for the new year's weekend - plans made long in advance. i am so worried as to how to get this all squared away. and/or how to participate in any celebratory/touristy activities with em. sigh.
Maybe you could tell them they just missed the hurricane - and there is nothing left to see...
Actually, I ALMOST got a Keurig. Got all excited when Office Depot had 100% rewards on the k-cups. I wanted to start drinking coffee so I could get it free!
(Still drinking Liptons Tea that I got free at Walgreens last April.....)

Finally went shopping today.. Did some returns to Walmart and Kohls.. Went by target.. no jedi in sight.. Did a little after Christmas scouting. My store still had quite a few ziploc left.. Also found some vanity fair plates and cups.. I decided to wait on the ziploc cause I didn't have any coupons with me.. Just grabbed a few of the free up and up hand soaps (which don't smell that great to me.. wouldn't have gotten them if they weren't free
hope everyone who got sick or injured while i was away is on the mend, esp gg b/c she always agrees w/ everything i say
i also love all the recipe sharing here. i save them esp the easy peasy ones and one day i will try them. well, ok, maybe not the candy ones.....or well maybe i'll try them w/ the nephews or bff's kids.
which brings me to the diet support group. where'd everybody go
*snip*
Oh, and one last thing - the lady in front of me at the checkout at T tonight had a huge order, full of toys/gifts and lots of wrapping paper. Her total ended up being well over $200, which she paid in cash.
your story was great but would have been way more awesome if you had been able to whip out a few coupons so she had gotten some money back
Except when my Dad lived with me when he broke his leg, I've never cooked supper every night (throwing a frozen dinner in the microwave is not cooking) like most of you moms do. Usually when I make something, part of it has to go in the freezer, or I get sick of it eating it every night for dinner. I've bought bagged salad twice now, and it rotted before I ate it. I bought cauliflower and forgot it was in the frig and it went to liquid
My SIL keeps saying I need an organizer like on the show Neat (fit.tv) Love to have one of those, but I hate throwing stuff away that I paid $$ for. I'm single and have two refrigerators AND a 13 cubic foot freezer that are all stuffed to the gills (maybe wouldn't be if I cleaned out all the expired stuff though).
Where do you find tortilla chips like restaurants serve that aren't salted (Ones I've bought in the snack aisle don't work and are W A Y too salty)? My favorite mexican food is chicken nachos, so I wanted to make some with the taco chicken I made. I baked some low carb flour tortillas last time and they were OK, but not what would compare to the mexican place (and I don't want to buy a fryer just for nachos).
i've read that the reason why junk food is cheaper than healthy food is b/c of all the gov't subsidies of large corporate farms which more often than not nowadays ends up in the pockets of wealthy *farmers* like sam donaldson and major companies like tyson chicken. see-
http://www.policytoday
farm subsidies is also causing all the high fructose corn syrup and soy to be in our foods b/c if they used it for biodiesel instead, they wouldn't receive easy gov't money.
it can be difficult to cook for one. don't have to do it every day, but maybe a goal of 3-4x/wk. there are cookbooks for one out there. maybe invite a guinea pig over and experiment on them periodically? i'm sure there are others out there who also have the same problem of cooking for one also and maybe could alternate or something.
i cook for 2 and hate leftovers but over time i have ended up liking to cook extra or double portion so don't have to cook so often. i always skip a day so never eat the same thing the next day.
what you need to do is find somebody who hates to cook like bff. i end up cooking at her house many times b/c she has 4 kids and just easier to do it there. but i know if i ever just felt like cooking for a bunch of people she'd be over whenever i got the urge.
It seems like it would be much easier for them just to void that item and let you move on.
of course target is always ymmv.
Question...do you think it would keep until Valentines Day? I could take off the Christmas wrap and re-wrap? Thoughts?
Based upon that we shall call you a bottom feeder. You shall cry and thrash about.
When you are done..you must say bad things and watch the vampire porno movie.
Then you will be accepted as one of us. You must also solemnly swear to work on getting a keurig (apparently it makes you one of the in crowd. I am still working on mine).
That is all.
i will never be one of the in crowd. i rarely ever drink coffee, have at least 7 boxes of swiss miss to finish by march/april and already have 2 coffee makers in the cabinets of which i only use one about once a yr. i will never be able to justify a keurig
so are the kind thoughts
QUOTE=getgreen09;35832819]cathi, food, prayers, love, chores: what you are giving is what they need the most right now. and it is priceless, because outsiders can't do this. remember that.
also, i know this is tough to do and easier to say cos this is your brother, but try to pace yourself. they're going to need you for many months and he will need you too. i have had people very dear to me face unexpected and major health challenges out of the blue: it is emotionally and physically grueling. and in the beginning we go in all guns blazing and then as months go by we get spiritually and psychologically and physically worn out some. turns out that's when the patient needs us the most because they are worn out, too. so try if you can help it, try not to do all-nighters, and try to keep some semblance of your original sleep/rest/meals/family routine. you'll need it.
sending big big big prayers and lots of hugs your way.[/QUOTE]
Just these two days of overdoing, then I'll work out a reasonable schedule, I can't sleep now anyway,so it keeps me doing, instead of feeling,and is at least productive .You are definateleyright about the long haul, we've been through this with my husabnds father who passed from cancer two years ago, so I kind know the drill .,and truer words were never spoken , thanks for the reminder to stay
And you are on my prayer list also
[QUOTE=Kay12;35832951]

Hugs and prayers Cathy. You are doing whatever you can at your end, so good of you. All the good deeds and prayers would be definitely answered, Hang in there. Take care:
I hope so thanks ...
[QUOTE=tootsie67;35833041]: Cathi :
Hang in there hon!!![

Am I the only one here that doesn't drink coffee?
I drink enough for three people ....just hook up the IV LOL
I could use some of that bout now
~ Henry Drummond
Thanks for the encouragement
BTW , I think maybe I ever returned three things at the most and that includes anywhere
I just don't don't return things ....even when I should.
You meanies are great thanks so much ...but I won't tell

Is Frontline the drops stuff?
Looks like I've got a lot of vaccuming and cleaning to do.
She's definitely got something going on. She is gnawing the heck out of her legs and hindquarters. The last time I had to get rid of fleas (our old place was infested) it took a good 2 1/2 months of constant deep cleaning to get rid of them all.
my new favorite is bigelow's green tea w/ jasmine. normally i like to drink black tea in the winter, so dunno why. don't think that comes in a kcup either
today i'm catching up on deals from the 25th on. only read the recaps from when i was away, what ones there were, so skipping all the drama/fun. gonna have to work on putting a complete team back together but i think i'll just wait till after new yrs.
good thing i bought almost all my gifts b4 we left. i did look all over hong kong, thailand and cambodia for just the right thing for bff and found it on the last night we were there. actually 2 of them, one facing right, one facing left and didn't know which was correct, so just bought both as a funny story to tell since they were inexpensive. and worked on my bargaining skills while i was at it which were exceedingly rusty. what was really funny was when first time out i offered half and she said ok, just like that! it was either b/c most of the night market is closing to make way for a mall so many of the jewelry places said *half off* or *closing sale* right off the bat or b/c few people were interested in that particular design.
jet lag has me all screwed up, sleep and diet-wise. just haven't been eating, period. in-laws went wacko w/ the food on xmas day. we brought so much food home again just like thanksgiving. it's getting passe' to eat the same thing every day real quick and making me lazy to cook.
blizzard on the 26th also has me homebound. which i guess is ok, since i only want to buy if it's 75-90% off and i do not need to buy any choco or other candy so less temptation. but is making the jetlag worse b/c i'm not getting back into the swing of things. just staying home sleeping and eating whenever.
think i should work on a new yrs resolution for the next few months to really clean my house and stop buying things i don't need. while it was fun to sell cheap, free and mm's at my biennual yard sale, i think it took time and effort away from the main purpose of reduce, reuse and recycle. i don't do yard sales often enough to justify buying stuff just to sell every 2 yrs. and need to eat down and donate my stockpile so there is less expired. and just buy less. too many piles around the house.

No stores around here carry this...dangit.
Cathi-so sorry you are going through rough times right now.
Started WW yesterday-I am so ready to get this weight off! New Year's Eve/Day will be a struggle, but I am going to try my hardest to stay on plan!
I can't remember who posted about skinny taste dot com, but I am loving the site. It looks like it has some awesome recipes on there. I am going to make the pumpkin dip today.
Sending lots of hugs even if it is late in the day
Nephew had a central line placed on Monday, to make transfusions easier. They will begin working on a bone marrow transplant. At least he is growing!
(Still drinking Liptons Tea that I got free at Walgreens last April.....)
I did make some really yummy coffee truffles.
Now, I have to get off my arse and go get another cup of coffee. You'd think I could teach one of these dogs to fetch it for me.

I do have coffee in hand and am trying to get going.. But, I am feeling exhausted! I think I am gonna let DH sleep another 30 minutes or so, and then get him up so I can take a nap.
Looks like no one is finding target at 75% yet.. I was gonna head out this morning, but I think I will wait til evening cause I need to go that way anyway. I am hoping my ziploc stash is still there when I get there. Even at 50% with the MQ and TQ, it is a great deal.. But, not enough to make me want to drive that 25 minute trip right now. I envy those of you who live 5 minutes from target
I found a whole stack of good coupons last night when I was looking for the ziploc.. A bunch I had never cut, so clipped them and they expire 12/31.. Keeping my fingers crossed that my fav jedi is working tonight!
Hope everyone has a great day! Happy shopping!
