It's almost November!

Oh MY! Just a few more days and it will be....NOVEMBER! Where has the year gone? I think I say this every year since I turned 30. November 1st is our 10 year anniversary. Even with the ups and downs of life--it has been a good trip! I love my David and would not trade him for anyone or anything! I also can't believe it is this close to Tahnksgiving and the preverbial question from family has not come up yet! "Where is Thanksgiving and Christmas going to be? Whose coming? I want it here...no--me, me, me!!!!" LOL! I am waiting. Maybe I will say "We are staying home gonna have fun ourselves" ha ha! Like that'll happen! I like going but it is the chaos they make of it beforehand that drives me nuts. And it is just my side of the family that does this. So I am waiting to see where the Holiday celebrations will be held this year and when.
Today this is what I have had so far to eat.
Breakfast
homemade granola and 1/4 c of 1% milk
banana
Black coffee

Snack
no sugar applesauce
hot tea with Stevia
7 walnut halves

I hope to post the rest later. David is off tomorrow and all next week.YAY!!! I am praying for nice weather to get outside for a bit. He does want to go swim though! another YAY! Then we will travel north as he will be preaching the 8th.

Love, hugs and prayers!

Getting myself together again.

OK--here I am again after weeks of no postings. I need you to keep me accountable! LOL!
Well, I DO have good news to blog anyways! October is my "exam month". Typically I have most of my mammos, PAP tests and follow ups to the docs in October. Oh..and the dentist! LOL! My blood work was actually in September. But the great news is:
1. I still show no signs of cancer.
2. My cholesterol is down to 171
3. My A1C is at 5.8!!!!!!
4. My doctor decided she could put me on a lower dose of my blood pressure meds!

I have also lost a total of 13 pounds since the end of May!
That being said...I am going to start blogging my journals again. There will be days I can't since I will be out of town but I am making an effort to stick with it. I think I need to do this to keep on track better. I have noticed some things slipping back into my old ways and I don't want that--not after such great reports!

Lot's of hugs!!
