Hi everyone, I'm sorry that I'm not getting on here the way I feel that I should be. My eating is still not back to normal but I am doing a bit better, not well enough to stop gaining but it's slowing down. I've been busier than usual at work but I'm beginning to believe that there will be an end to it. I was out of town for a meeting on Monday last week. I got my hair trimmed on Wednesday after work. I had no Hallowe'en kids so took what was left of the candy bars to work. Thursday after work I went to a juried art show in the city with three of my friends and then out for a late dinner. I was able to join everyone for lunch on Friday. I had a Skype visit with my son, dil, and granddaughter on Saturday. They had a picture of her on Facebook with a tiny Hallowe'en costume and the words Mommy's Little Mummy on it. They also had a cute little Jack o'Lantern hat for her. I didn't get much done this weekend. A bit outside and the usual inside chores. It's snowing now and it was raining most of the day. The forecast is for the same tomorrow and I wouldn't be surprised if this was the end of our lovely fall weather. The guy that I hired started the work on Friday. He put the piece of siding back on the house that the wind blew off right at the top of the house. He hasn't put back the 2 or 3 pieces of soffit that blew off from under a dormer window at the back yet. (interlocking ventilation metal stops). He did do a coat of mudding in the kitchen which already makes it look so much better. He'll likely get finished this week. A friend gets big sacks of black oilseed sunflower seeds for us which we use to fill our bird feeders and she dropped mine off this evening. I have all the Brussels sprouts out of the garden. This iPad is addictive but it takes forever for YUKU to sign me in and let me write a post. I went and played two games of Mah Jong and got my sunflower seeds delivered and stored in the garage while it was deciding whether to let me log in. I'll be back for personals later this week. We need to keep this forum alive so I'll do my best to pull up my socks. I hope you all had a great evening. Did you all have to change your clocks this weekend like I did?

We CAN do this!
