Finally Friday!
Eileen...You can make STUFFED PEPPERS with ground meat, onions, onions and tomatoes. Just make brown rice and mix with chopped onions, spices, the cooked and drained meat and chopped tomatoes.
Cut the tops off the peppers and clean out the innards, stuff the mix into the peppers, top with shredded or parm cheese, set in a pan (I usually slice a bit off the bottom of the peppers to make them stand up straight) and cover with tomato sauce and bake until the peppers are tender and the cheese bubbles. YUMMY!
Good Morning Nancy and OFF Peeps,
I will be praying for you with your lump. I had a lump years ago, which turned out to be a benign cyst. I had to have a breast MRI, which was horrible because of my size, pre-op, and that led to me getting the RNY.
I got three more boxes packed yesterday, thanks to my friend dropping over to help. My living room is a disaster with many boxes taking up space.
Today, I will make my AA meeting. I also have to get my foot x-rayed, which I had hoped to do yesterday, but could not get the slip replacement because my podatrist's office was not open to get the slip ordering the x-ray.
I also need to do some serious tidying for my apartment. The packing left things in a serious state of disarray.
I hope everyone has a blessed day. I have to get going.
Hugs and prayers,
Trish

Seek always to do some good, somewhere. Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth. You must give some time to your fellow man. For remember, you don't live in a world all your own. Your brothers are here too.

Good mornin, ya'll.
Nancy you are in my prayers. Your positive attitude is very important. My uncle always says we are never cancer free, just in remission. That may be true. But I know we have to be ever vigilant.
Eileen, I am so happy that Julliette is giving you so much love and attention. I remember when you first got her.
Our son's surgery on his arm went well I guess. But he says he isn't hungry and won't eat. Then his pain meds make him nausous. And he won't take the meds as scheduled, he waits til his pain is great! I keep telling him you have to stay ahead of the pain not chase it, and even if he isn't hungry he has to eat something! I learned those lessons after my first shoulder surgery! His wife is trying to get him to toe the mark. But he is a big, bad, tough Marine who can do anything. BUT, he did say he would like some of my cherry cheesecake. So after this morning's shower I will be off to WM to get what I need for that.
My weight is stabalized but I am having so much trouble getting it to go down!! I am on my treadmill every morning. I have purged my house of cookies. The only candy here is what our son eats for his dessert after he has his salad for lunch (malt balls, peanut M&Ms and Junior Mints). I know the culprit is fruit and yogurt. I love fresh raspberries, strawberries, blueberries and bananas mixed with yogurt and a cup of cheerios. I could eat that 3 times a day!
Everyone have a fantabulous day!

Hello Nancy, Eileen and Grammylew. A big good morning to all who follow.
Nancy, I'm so sorry that the lump is present. Will pray for a good outcome.
Eileen, My big boy, Bela, has been very sweet and loving lately. He's usually a wild man. Maybe he has finally left his kitten days behind him
Grammylew, Glad your son's surgery seems to be OK so far. Hope he gets better about eating and taking his pain meds.
I have 2 appointments today and then looking forward to a quiet weekend. Still having trouble sleeping. Still don't have my new apnea machine. They said they will be calling in a couple of days to set a delivery date. My sis has to work on Saturday as an education day. She is not very happy about it. Don't blame her.
Best to all. Hugs Mag

Hugs Nancy B and I'm keeping you in my prayers. YOU are grounded and peaceful and girl you have the courage of a lion. Keep roaring and staying positive. Sending you a great big bear hug! Debbie
Happy Friday OFF family and it will be a busy day and part of it I gotta keep from crying. I hate to cry in front of people. My dept. is planning a little party from 0900-1200 so the volunteers can come up and have some cake. I'm still part of the dept., I plan on volunteering here anyway. I'll just smile and keep on keeping on! Then our management team is going out to lunch to celebrate my new position and my boss's BD. My boss is also one of my best friends. She is one of my strongest support people...in my whole life. We will still be close, that is not going away.
So my Charlie cat is still with us. She is fighting to live. I'm waiting for the vet to call me. The good news is she doesn't have leukemia or FIV. They starting her on IV antibiotics and fluids. I left work a half hour after I punched in. God was telling me He answered my prayers by bringing her home. The other night I cried myself to sleep and prayed for Charlie to some how make it home to me. My hubby has that stupid mentality that pets are not family they are dogs or cats. I think he is finally getting it in this head that I do treat my animals like family. That is not going to change.
I just called the vet clinic and the vet is not there yet. I need to think happy thoughts here.
So today I'll try and get though this day. No comfort eating and I promise to only have a small piece of cake and I can do that cuz cake isn't my fav (cookies are!)
Hugs and prayers for all especially Nancy B!! Debbie
