Tomorrow I am making a day trip to Buffalo for shopping with a friend of mine....I am also meeting a friend from the ZC message board....I ordered some pemmican from a company that doesn't ship to Canada and I had it delivered to her house....Monday I am shipping some to British Columbia and Quebec for other friends who wanted to try it.......I am nervous about leaving W for such a long time but I will get some soup ready and a few protein drinks that Kate can whip out for him as he needs them....yesterday his new lift chair was delivered....I am so incredibly happy that we chose to go into debt to buy him this chair...it was $1,899 but I cannot describe how happy I was to finally see him sitting comfortably for the first time in months....I may get some back from my health plan but I'm not sure...he just needed it and we bought it...now he can get up and down on his own and he isn't too exhausted to walk up the 3 steps to the bathroom....

Well that's it....have a great LC day

Closing up the pool today. But, first a trip to the pool store (again) to buy yet another winter cover. Too many grommets (sp?) blown on the other one. We just fight the wind all the time due to our location. So, another $70.00 for pool stuff and DH just was there to buy new cable for the cover...needs to be a stronger cable system I guess.

Beautiful autumn day outside...a little too cool for it being early October but whatcha gonna do.

Lise...I'm blanking again...what does ZC mean? Is that Zero Carb? I'm terrible at remembering right now. Not enough sleep. Oh yes....hope you had a fabo time in Buffalo!! Let us know about all those treasures.


Hi ya to all our friends...must fly.

I was 187 this morning...I can hardly believe this is happening to me...I have never in my life gone 18 months on any plan...I know I have progressed from my start in April of 2008 when I gave up sugar/starch/starchy vegetables to doing EFGT and now ZC (yes Charlene, that's zero carb which is really just nothing that grew from a plant)....it has been a learning process for me of how to nourish my body and in so doing my body is rewarding me by dropping this fat I have carried around all my life and also my insulin is under control and my diabetes is totally under control as well...I am so thankful to have put cravings behind me and to finally have control over this part of my life...

Good morning to all- well another wknd here and gone...it was an ok wknd I guess.. Our spare car that we have @ home DH had parked outside our house on the street and someone Sat night hit it and damaged the whole drivers side- I'm guessing they were DUI and left the scene so that was NOT a good thing for us- we only have liability on it so needless to say DH was NOT in a good mood the rest of the day. Anyhow cool here today few snowflakes on and off over the wknd-ARGHHH
I am off work Fri since it is girls wknd in Duluth, MN- we are leaving about noonish and it is like a 4 hr drive so should be fun- I need some get out of town down time...haha ok off for now later all

Wayne died in the night. L was with him. She is busy this morning contacting everyone. He will be creamated tomorrow.
Niki...I replied to your email but I am not used to doing that so I hope it went through. L will be very busy for the next few days but then she will be lonely. She needs her friends.

Happy Hump Day all- well half way thru the week which is a good thing.... Rainy yet again today but it is to quit tonight and be nicer tomorrow so they say.... we are getting water logged so hope it stops soon. Anyhow not much new here- trying to stay ahead of the game and not get sick- seems like everyone here is getting something or another... So I keep taking my vitamins religiously in hopes I do not get sick.... been waking up every morning though w/red eyes and a headache- don't know what thats all about but I'm thinking of maybe getting an air purifier so if anyone has any tips on what kind to buy let me know. Well back to work good day all

Morning all on this almost Friday..WooHoo Cop shop class again tonight- think tonights topic is DWI's and drug busts etc.
so that should be very exciting.... am loving these classes.. think we get done like right before Thanksgiving or so... I've learnt alot and really have alot more respect for cops now after seeing all what they go thru and especially all they go thru to be a cop... very intense- don't know if I ever could have done it- well maybe in my younger yrs but my body surely could not handle it now...teehee Anyhow off for now hope you all have a great day. Headache is better today- took some allergy pills and they seemed to have helped although I am gonna try a nasal rinse to see if that helps also- I know DH has some some that on my agenda to try next to see if it helps- ok off for now R- P.S. LISe your in my prayers every day- you and your family

Article in todays paper:

Fargo named third-best city to raise children
Fargo has been chosen as the third-best city in the nation to raise children, according to a story published in Children’s Health magazine.


The story published Tuesday ranked the top 100 cities in which to raise kids, with Burlington, Vt., named as the best and Madison, Wis., named second.

Other regional cities included St. Paul at No. 12 and Minneapolis at No. 18.

The writers said they used more than 30 factors, including crime and safety, education, economics, housing, cultural attractions and health, to rank the cities.

Next week we go to another location (one of the local community colleges) actually the one my oldest DD attends and we get to use the simulater for shoot and not shoot sceanrios- so that should be totally cool.... I'll have to remember to not be trigger happy ..teehee
Well wknd is finally upon us and thats wonderful- gonna go shopping for new linoleum for my kitchen so DD's are gonna come and help me pick out something- they are into that kind of stuff re: home remodeling- I am not much into that so will need their help...anyhow off for now hope you all have a stellar day!! ROCKIN' Brisk 25 degrees this morning....
