Good morning dear ladies,
Wow! Our temps have changed. We had 90* on Friday and a high of 53* yesterday.
We literally turned the ac off and turned the heat on. LOL We are such wusses.
It was 42* this morning, but the sun is shining and it is supposed to get into the 70s. We took the ac down and stored it for the winter, so I hope we don't have any more 90* days.
I read about a drink to detox your body. Since it was all simple stuff that won't harm my body, I gave it a try today. Well, absolutely nasty. You take 1-2 tabl. apple cider vingegar, 1 tabl. lemon juice, 1 teas. cinnamon, and 1 packet of stevia and stir all this into a glass of water. A lot a people raved about how good this was, so I gave it a try. Maybe my taste buds are different than most, but yuck. I almost gagged getting it down and seriously doubt I will try that again.
I delivered the little fall quilt to my SIL. She loved, loved it. That made me happy.
I had a good visit with her about weight loss. She has lost a lot of weight in the past couple of years. Probably over 100 lbs. She looks so great. She did it for the health issues in her family. She gave me some tips I am going to try. She has been acting kind of like my coach.
Her number one tip, eat more protein and less carbs. Being a diabetic, I think that is a good start for me.
MIL's birthday is tomorrow. She will be 84. I made her some fingerless gloved. Oh my, she loved them! I already have one made and started on the second one of another, heavier pair for her. Her hands were so cold when we got there, but had warmed right up by the time we left. The pair I am working on now are made with single crochet and heavier yarn. The first pair was made with baby weight yarn and shells. I forgot my camera yesterday, of course, but I took a picture of one of them on me. I will try to post in a bit.
Lindsay, I sure hope your hubby found that snake. Snakes just freak me out. Several years ago while we were still over at the old house and I was still milking goats, we had a tiny copperhead get on our sink and wrap around the milk jars that were draining. I almost lost it. Copperheads are so dangerous. Kevin put on heavy gloves and used my tongs to get it. He told me to go upstairs till he had it out, but I just stood on the stairs and peaked around the wall. I had to see for myself that it was no longer in my house. To this day, I still look around cautiously when I enter the old house. I hate snakes.
Leah, hope you are enjoying your little girl. Josie is such a pretty name.
Cheryl, Mandy, Pixie, and Andrea, I hope you all have a wonderful and productive Monday.
Blessings,
Winona
