I posted a journal entry of a saying that I thought was very appropriate. I hope that some of them apply to you. I am feeling just so, so today, not depressed not up just kind of empty if you know what I mean.My hubby did not do the bbq thing yesterday we decided to use our george Forman grill instead. They were delious. I was amazed at how much fat comes off the burgers!!! for dessert we had an carmel , apple crisp. It's pie crust made into a petal shape and filled with apples and topped with caramel, yummy!!! I need the break from dieting. I'll start my diet again on Wed. No good to start it today because Tues. is our Xmas party at Women's Group. I'm bringing a fruit try which is so... good for you BUT I'm also bringing a yummy Chocolate dipping sauce and a yogurt dip. give me the chocolate!!! Others are bringing veggie trays, cheese and crackers.Michael is feeling well again, thank heavens. Plus I didn't get it!!!Just found out that my niece, my sister's daughter is pregnant and due in July. She is thrilled. She is a wonderful person and will make a terrific mum.I'm going to get some more wrapping done today. But I'll have to take a break this afternoon to go to my friend's house and do up our Xmas mugs for the group members. I think they will like them, I know I would like one for a gift.Michael got the outside decorations up yesterday and I just started the indoor ones. I do most of it because I'm so fussy. and nobody touches the tree except me!! I decided this year to get all silver balls, some with textures and designs and some without. no bows on it this year, they look a little worn. I'll put the gold ribbon on and see how it looks if it looks bad i'll get silver ribbon.Haven't heard from my daughter since Wed. I guess no news is good news, I hope!!anyway, I must close now and get something to eat. I'm starving.So be well all my DS friends

Usually I am just like you about the tree. That and the fact that my hubby doesn\'t enjoy decorating with me because I keep making him move things to suit my taste. Anyway, I am behind this year in that I have not even taken my decorations from the storage area yet. I told myself that I HAVE to finish some sewing for customers before I allow myself that fun. Later today I\'m planning on being finished though and hopefully by tomorrow the house will be in full decor. I\'m not doing as much this year for we will be alone this whole season but I need something to brighten the house and I love it so much. It\'s just such a tiring and almost depressing project to put it all away again. I tend to do that one room at a time to make it last. Enjoy your Women\'s party this week. Your diet will wait and you can stil enjoy the chocolate if you try to hold back just a bit on it. Have a great day. Sylvia

I love this time of decorating too. I am a little behind with working so much. You sound better. I hope you have fun at your group Christmas party, your fruit deeps sound delicious. I dont know how you do it. You are always so active. I admire you for that. I keep you in my daily prayers and hope you continue to feel good. I am glad your hubby is doing better and you did not get his cold. I wish I could get rid of mine. Hugs
