We are having a spend the night party tonight with the girls - they are suppose to be going to sleep, but it is not happening yet!!

Linda

Did you get any sleep?  We are refinishing 2 of our bedrooms that are empty now so the grandkids can come and stay.  A pretty one for the girls and then bunk beds for the boys.  Houston is going to be so excited when he sees it.  He is so sad when he comes over to our house and "HIS" room is empty.

I've been beating the carb monster.  I just can't take that first bite because if I do it is downhill from that point on.  I've been taking an extra protein snack every day and squeezing in another Protein drink to make me full.

Once they went to sleep, they slept until about 6:30 this morning.  Atleast they stayed in the bed this morning when they woke up.  We could hear them in there talking.  It was so funny to just lay and listen to them carrying on a conversation!!

I've had a horrible week this week with my food.  I need to fix some pizza chips for next week.  Maybe I'll do it tomorrow. 

One of the ladies that we visited at the nursing home passed away and we knew her and the family really good, so we are going to the visitation tonight and service tomorrow.  She was such a wonderful lady and is going to be missed by so many people.

Linda

Only Granparents can enjoy laying there listening to their whispers at 6:30 in the morning and thinking it is funny.....

I did great the last couple of weeks and then blew it with Halloween candy.  I should have grabbed a pizza chip instead.  I've found that if I eat a few croutons or a pizza chip the strong tastes keep me from wanting what others are enjoying.

Sorry about your friend.  I think it's great that you and DH visit so many at nursing homes but I bet this part is really hard and comes often.  All of our DD's took their kids to my Mom's last night for trick or treat and that will be something she will talk about for a couple of weeks.  It's so sad because she is starting to forget all of their names.

I feel your pain about the kitchen at work.  I started to bring my food in a lunch bag so I didnt have to go in there as often.  lol  The water cooler is in there and it dispenses ho****er for my tea.  I need a pair of blinder.  Yesterday there was a homemade German Chocolate cake sitting on the table!!!!!!   Good thing i am scarred of dumping or I may have tried some, it was my fav. :(

Unfortunately, I can tell about what to eat without getting sick.  Sometimes I go ahead and eat too much and pay the price.  I love German Chocolate cake.... 

We did have a small refrigerator in my room, but it doesn't work anymore so I have to use the one in the kitchen where all the goodies are.
