One Minute Writer – Parenting Differences: Now VS Then
Published June 2, 2010 | 
From One-Minute Writer:
Write about a way in which parenting has changed since you were a kid (either based on what you observe, or on what the experts recommend.)
I really like this site because it gives an interesting prompt and then only 1 minute to write about it. However, sometimes this “prompts” me to write more. This particular writing prompt today did just that. I know immediately that what I wanted to say, wouldn’t get completed in only a minute. So, if I’m going to rant, I’m going to rant on my own blog. LOL!

This is a new feature on my blog. I decided to start blogging about my favorite things… raindrops on roses, whiskers on kittens, bright paper packages tied up with strings… yadah yadah yadah. I’m sure you know the rest of the song. If anyone would like to participate in this Friday thing, then I’ll start up a Mr. Linky thingamajig. LOL!

Published May 13, 2010 | 
This Blog Dare started on Community of Moms and hopped over to BloggyMoms. It’s supposed to be a challenge to write every day for a full year. It started on Jan.1 of this year… as you can see, I’m a bit late to come to the challenge. But hey, I can just keep blogging for a full year starting now! I figure at the very least, I can use the Blog Dare to fill in on the days when I don’t already have something to blog about.
May is favorite recipe month, and Thursdays are Thankful Thursdays. So I figure I”ll wrap them into one post… and you’ll get my Thankful Thursday Recipe. Hope you like it.

Published March 24, 2010 |
Those things are nasty looking, aren’t they? Those are gallstones… not MY gallstones, but someones. These nasty little things have been acting up on me this week. I’ve been in pain because I cheated on my diet a teensy weensy HUGE bit. So I’m in pain and back on my “Jack Sprat Diet”. I thought I’d share some of the things I’ve been eating to get myself back on track.Breakfasts – Some of the things I’ve been eating for breakfast aren’t very different than my normal breakfasts. Sourdough bread only has .5 grams of fat per slice! It’s my favorite type of bread too, so I toast up a couple of slices, use fat free butter spread, and have a banana pus a cup of coffee with fat free non-dairy creamer. Total Fat – 1 gram Continue reading

Valentines day was Sunday. Steve and I went out to play some poker tournaments, including a “Couples” tournament. We had fun, even if we didn’t win anything. I wore some jeans, that I was finally able to fit into again. I started fitting into them a few weeks ago after I lost 15 lbs because of my gallstones. Well Sunday, when I put those jeans on, fresh from the dryer, it seemed that they fit me a little better than they had before. I didn’t take the time to weight myself, mostly because I had been cheating a little to much and last week I had a mild gall bladder attack. Then yesterday I woke up, and went straight to the scale (ok, maybe not straight to the scale.. I went potty first). I nearly had a heart attack when I saw what the scale said!! I am down to….. drum roll please……………………………………………………………………………………

So, After I was diagnosed with gallstones I stopped eating so much fat. I ended up losing 15 lbs in almost as many days. Then over the holidays, I didn’t stick to my diet and I gained 5 lbs back. Well since New years, I’ve stuck to my diet much better and have lost 7 lbs so far. I”m feeling really good, even cute! So this whole “eating right” thing is working pretty nicely for me.
