Days of Christmas

For several years now, we’ve done “12 Days of Christmas” – we got a couple nice things and a bunch of Dollar Tree type stuff, and the kids open one item a day instead of being overwhelmed with everything at once. This year, we weren’t going to do it, but my mom-in-law told me that Timmy (9) told her that […]

Christmas at church

Last night was our church’s Christmas fellowship party. It was a lot of fun, and I didn’t overeat (since most of the items were things NOT recommended when recovering/treating gall bladder issues). We played a pictionary-style game with two teams (and using the chalkboard) – ended up with a tie. It was definitely fun!

Gall bladder problems.

I’ve been “self treating” with beans (lots of fiber) based on This Article. So far I haven’t had a recurrence; I’m hoping and praying that I don’t!

Since we are upstairs for Sunday School and Jr Church, it wasn’t a problem as far as “being around people” was […]

Weighty Matters

So I stepped on the scale the other morning, out of curiosity (mainly). Within the first few weeks of knowing I was pregnant, back in March, I had gotten to 215 (on my scale). I gained from there until I was about 230 (on my scale) just before John Luke was born. And now? 205

This guy should run for President one day… “We the sensible people of the United States, in an attempt to help everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice, avoid more riots, keep our nation safe, promote […]

OB Appt today….

No change since Monday, as I expected. He’s quite comfortable in there, apparently – which is fine with me. I’m much more comfortable knowing that he’s doing fine and not being forced to deal with the world before he’s ready. Next appointment is next Wednesday.
