Good morning, y'all. Another easy TT for me. I never was a salter and learned to eat many things without when I had diabetic related kidney problems with my 4th pregnancy. It ended the night L was born, but I never went back to using much salt. I do deliberately eat salty snacks after I've had a surgery. I'm a bleeder and it takes salt, not iron, to rebuild my strength.

Yes, I hate hospitals. I could save walking on uneven decorative bricks (what were they thinking??) by cutting through emergency, but even walking through emergency is scary with all the germs flying around.

mummadee, you can be a part of this group without sending a FQ. We need all the support we can get and hope we can give you some, too.

D called me just before he hit Pittsburgh. He was in the clear by then, but he had driven in many whiteouts. He loves that truck as the two of them did their usual job of getting through safely. Funny guy - he kept his quilt in its Christmas bag at his house so it wouldn't get dog hair on it. He saw Moira on it when I was putting the label on by hand so the quilt probably already has dog hair on it.

I have forgotten - what's the S in NSV? Non S---- Victory. New members and some of us returnees need a refresher.

I am doing well with food, but I'm having trouble getting my candy consumption under control. I need to go back to portioning the amount I intend to eat in a day and staying out of the remainder. I also need to make some muffins so I'll have some yummy carbs for my breakfast. Pumpkin muffins are always good to me.

Walking will be lovely today. The sun is shining brightly, though I think it's cold. Hmmm. 15 degrees isn't too bad as long as the wind is down. We had gusts to 50 mph Sunday night. Brrr.

What am doing for me today? Putting away the Christmas things so I get my house back. What am I working on? A burgundy/cream Spicy Spiral, though I'm not satisfied with one main fabric. I can't decide between two prints. They're in the washer so maybe one will speak to me while I press them. I took pictures, but it didn't help.
What am I eating? Eggs and whatever for lunch and a restraurant salad for dinner. The other half of a grapefruit for evening snack.
What am I doing for exercise? A 30 minute walk in the sunshine and a 30 minute TV exercise program. I've gotten away from that and need to get back NOW. Oh, and at least 20 minutes shoveling snow. Sounds like I'd better get busy.

I am gaining control of my weight and getting healthier.
I still like 'gaining control of my weight' as opposed to 'losing weight'. We look for what we lose, but rejoice in gaining control. I AM because I want it now, not in the future wich I will denotes. I know it's all semantics, but our thoughts imprint our bodies. Have a good day, everyone.
