Good evening friends,
Nice weather coming to an end now - rain on the way for the next few days. Shouldn't complain after seeing what the rets of the country has had to deal with these past few weeks.
I've been asked to meet my grandsons at their bus stop Friday afternoon & bring them here for dinner. Glad to do it especially because I haven't seen them for nearly 3 weeks. My son is working somewhere until 6 pm & will pick them up sometime later. I have no idea where their mother would be
Star, quinoa is something that I just haven't been able to make friends with for some reason. I think it's a texture problem. Now I did find a recipe using it in a cold salad which improved the texture but I haven't made it in about a year & a half. Now I can't even remember what the recipe is of course, duh.
Glad you are busy & having some good family time too! I just finished off the last of my vegan mushroom soup for lunch - love that stuff
Cyn, you are not he only one dealing with blending days, ha ha!
Every day seems to be pretty much the same around here so I am always looking for something to break up the monotony. That's not always an easy thing to do around here either.
Today I ran into a former Curves member at the market which was kind of shocking because I hadn't seen anyone all summer. So that was my excitement for the day!!
Are you oing to be taking any glutamine to help your gut repair? It is supposed to do wonders if you take 2-5 gms twice/day. I can't take the stuff myself because it runs straight thru me (TMI). I downloaded a book today 'How To Lose Massive Weight with the Alkaline Diet'. I haven't looked at it yet. I would like to lose my menopause 15 pounds, don't want them or need them. I know you are having problems keeping weight on which is difficult to manage too. I hope you are feeling better very soon!
Pauly, I am really sorry to hear about Michelle. Does she have a friend she can stay with for a while? She shouldn't be in an abusive situation like that. I always wished I had a sister when I was growing up. We were all focused on trying to save ourselves, to be honest.
Be good to yourself so you can be of assistance to your kids when they need help, OK?
My son's dog was named 'Maslow'. Anyone who has ever studied general psychology knows the name A. Maslow. I suppose this is my DIL's way of proving to the world that she is working on her self-actualization, ha ha!!! She has a long way to go IMHO.
I had already donated to the Red cross online. I've just read in the last few days that donating to veteran organizations is a good way too. I'll probably go online to the Purple Heart & sned them some money to go to hurricane victims. After Katrina I stitched up a box full of shirts & sold them on ebay & directed the proceeds to go to certain charities. I just may do that again too.
Have a peaceful night!
