Loving Home

Wow has this year flown by!  Where has it gone?  This has been an eventful year with both kids getting engaged and Rachel moving home.  I had surgery in November after a trip to Boston and Ontario in October.  David is still driving to Joelton for work and carpooling has not been very successful so far. Now is the time to plan for 2013.  I will be putting pen to paper and come back and post.  Hopefully it will be a productive year goal-wise.

I know I am a day late but Merry Christmas.  We actually celebrated on Christmas Eve and dh and I had a lazy day yesterday.  We had an amazing ham meal then and have been eating leftovers since.  Yum !!!!!!  I love leftovers. May God richly bless you during this holiday season.

I know it has been a while since I posted.  I am recovering from surgery still though I am doing a lot better now.  Since surgery I have lost 14.5 pounds (since Nov. 19) and a total of 51.5 this calendar year.  What a huge difference.  ~smile~ Food is playing a much different role in my life now and so is menu planning.  I need to plan more to make sure I get enough to eat of the right things.  I am still not really hungry on a daily basis but I know I need to eat. Menu for the rest of this week: Thursday: breakfast:  oatmeal lunch:  sandwich - dh; soup for me dinner:  chicken, mashed potatoes and snow peas Friday: breakfast:  oatmeal or cream of wheat lunch:  sandwich - dh; cottage cheese and fruit dinner:  whitefish, green beans and sweet potatoes Saturday: breakfast:  eggs and toast (hard boiled for me) lunch:  hot dogs and coleslaw for dh; soup of me dinner:  meatball subs for dh; meatballs...
