Fun night in the city



I sure enjoyed my night in the city. NAVAR's performance at Webster Hall was amazing! I loved spending time with my sons. I did very well eating what I can eat and avoiding what I should avoid.

eleven days of feeling better

I am thrilled that I am on the low thyroid pill...I sure do notice I have more energy and sleep better and stomach uneasiness completely gone and on and on...the benefits of a more fully functioning thyroid are huge!

On another front, I called my daughter when I found out she has a phone and got the number so we could sing happy birthday to her...yeah!!! Disconnections are no fun...glad we are back in touch...she was a block away from the shootings in Binghamton. She works a block away from the place where it all went down and I am so thankful she is okay.

Saw ADVENTURELAND with my son. It is a wonderful movie...funny with nice messages.

HAPPY DAY!

Walkin' on sunshine...

You know how you sometimes get a song stuck in your head? Well, I have "I'm walkin' on sunshine...wo-oh" in my head. No other lyrics, just those. I look out the window and it is gloomy so maybe I am trying to invite the sun to shine...not sure.

Had a good Sunday of not doing anything for the diner. Went to see THE LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT. It sure is a well done horror flic. The actress who plays the part of the escaped convict's galpal Sadie is the sister of NAVAR's drummer. She is in several other movies and seems to be doing well with the trailer trashy low life parts. It was weird seeing her on the screen playing such a psycho after meeting her and seeing her occasionally when she is visiting her parents and they come to the NAVAR concerts. Means she is a good actress, I guess. So, if you love Wes Craven movies or any horror type flic I recommend this film.

I ate Chinese food at the food court and I asked for only soyfree dishes and gee wiz I felt fine the rest of the day. I think I am doing so well avoiding all the foods and substances that bother me but I do indulge in Chinese with soy in the sauce sometimes...well, this time I didn't and I felt.........Nothing! So that's good...it is feeling something off all the rest of the day after eating that rots bigtime and why I began my quest to find out which foodsarenotmyfriends in the first place.

HAPPY WHATEVER DAY IT IS YOU ARE READING THIS! HUGS

A revolution can begin with one word change...mac n cash

Since I post so many experiments of mine with mac n cashew cheese I decided I might just start calling it "mac n cash" instead...think it will catch on? Caitlyn wrote in a comment that she doesn't care how many times I post about it but will she (or anyone else) approve of the proposed name change...stay tuned...

Do you have a problem with your memory?

Several doctors have mentioned to me that I should see an endocrinologist. Several bloodtests have shown that I might have hypothyroidism, or a low functioning thyroid. I finally did get an appointment, so off I went. She has put me on Synthroid. She asked me a lot of questions and one of them was, "Do you have a problem with your memory?" To this I enthusiastically shook my head and said, "Yes!"

My kids range from 33 down to 17 and I often tell my 17 year old, "I used to be a lot sharper." So after taking this miracle pill for a while we will put this to the test. I will let you know.

Happy day! HUGS

no chocolate yes chocolate what to do

I write here that I don't do chocolate and for the most part I don't but I have a guilty pleasure and it is mixing half unsweetened chocolate almond milk with sweetened chocolate almond milk for a treat. Mixing makes it less sweet but I also don't like the unsweetened so it satisfies me when I want a goodie. I do like plain almond milk but the chocolate variation is, like I said, my guilty pleasure...

I sometimes have carob rice milk but it just does not turn me on as much as the chocolate almond milk...there I admitted it! :)


Happy eliminating!
