The best, well one of the best things, is that whenever I am gone due to matters of life or MS, I ALWAYS KNOW all my Stella family is here.

Therefore, I am back. Little proud of myself since I can't exercise right now that my weight pretty much stayed the same and I am rearing to go AND my DH is doing it right with me this time. I had to bribe him with a new truck, but com'on, it's ok. We both need this.

Today I cooked a whole turkey so I can make up lots of yummy SS casseroles, soup, open face turkey sandwiches (skinless turkey meat, thin sliced red onion, tomato, big lettuce leaves, a sprinkle of cayenne pepper and a thin slice of swiss cheese..yum) yesterday I cleaned out my pantry and had a huge box of not legal foods to give to the shelter and they came and picked it up for me so that was nice. And, it felt dang good! Like everyone, I do so much better when I can make and freeze food items so I can grab. I still have trouble with portion control and I am working very hard to stop eating once I go to bed as I wake up in the night with pain and need to take a little food for my pain pills, but I haven't been choosing food items well and that's 2 of my goals, don't want to overdo it

I pray all is well, Billie, you are in my thoughts, always. Hello to all the other returnees and newbies. We will conquer this! key word: TOGETHER

GOALS AND GRATS:

1. I am glad to be back.
2. Getting caught up on all the posts.
3. My turkey is smelling insanely delish!
4. My DH is on board all the way...YES!!
5. Wish George's book would get here.

Blessings, everyone, Marylyn from Michigan
