    >> Yes, and everybody's body is different in how it processes the fuel we   
    >> put in   I've been wearing essentially the same size clothes for   
    >> so long, it's almost funny when I look in my closet   I have this   
    >> velvet outfit I sewed a bazillion years ago that I'm hoping to wear   
    >> this holiday season.. It's pretty cool... velvet knickers and jacket   
    >> ... works great with boots and a satin blouse :)   
    > How pretty... :)   
      
    JK> Yeah, it is really pretty outfit I made quite a long time ago when I   
    JK> was sewing all my clothes and for the kids as well .   
      
   Two of my sisters have done that sort of sewing... I never got quite   
   that proficient... :)  I did help make my wedding dress (quite a simple   
   one), but one of those two did most of it.... :)   
      
    > You are so right as to everybody's body being different in how it   
    > processes its fuel... Mine certainly isn't as accomodating as yours   
    > is...    
      
    JK> Well, there are days when I would like to just be 'normal' but I guess   
    JK> the combination of my height (geez, I'm not that tall, but ~5' 6"   
    JK> maybe) and my pulse clocking in at about 70 do it.. got me... :)   
      
   Apparently you've also got a very efficient metabolism... mine tends to   
   shut down all too easily...  :)   
       
    >>> For sure on the meds making things worse... but I guess it does sound as   
    >>> though she'd already been slipping some...   
    >> Yes, this week continues to confirm what we feared after we heard   
    >> about the stroke..  with essentially no progress, her insurance will   
    >> slip into Medicaid as opposed to medicare.   
    > She might have been having little strokes all along that just weren't   
    > noticeable... that would also have played into the ability/mindset for   
    > doing the rehab...   
      
    JK> Sure, that makes a lot of sense, really.  She still won't try anything   
    JK> along those lines.  They wheel her down there I guess, and then wheel   
    JK> her back.    
      
   Sad.  I suppose that at her age, and given the stroke, it might have   
   become more than she actually can do anymore....   
      
    >> And today I felt great because I ordered a number of 'seed pods' for   
    >> my aerogarden - that is a always boost :) :)  That company is so great,   
    >> I love it... I ordered eggplant, sweet peppers (not into hot ones   
    >> ), tomatoes and bok choy :)  Should be here in a couple days   
    >> so that's just great :)   
    > That's a mood booster, for sure...  :)  And you'll have the fresh   
    > veggies to look forward to even as the season gets less appealing   
    > outside... ;)   
      
    JK> Yes, I was so happy to see they've expanded the veggies they package   
    JK> included eggplant (they are smaller, purple ones almost like japanese   
    JK> eggplant).   
      
   Oh, that sounds really good...  I do like eggplant, especially the   
   japanese sort... they cook up very nicely...  :)   
      
    JK> The seed pot kits arrived a few days ago... now I have to sterilize   
    JK> the aerogarden "Farm" we have in the living room so I can plant the   
    JK> new pods. :)   
       
   It's for a good cause, after all... ;)    
      
    >>>>> Just need to keep at it... nibble on good stuff between meals if you   
    >>>>> can... make the cookies specially nutritious... ;)   
    >> My favorite recipe for peanut butter cookies is one that I've used   
    >> since "forever".. it is so good, just 2cups peanut butter, and 2 cups   
    >> sugar (I cut down the sugar to about 1 1/2 cups), and no flour.   
    > Those would be rather nutritious... and be an easier way to eat the PB   
    > than on a spoon from the jar...    
      
    JK> Oh yeah, I munch on those anytime I get hungry :)   
      
   Good show...  :)  Easy to keep handy, too...  :)   
       
    JK> Today I made pumpkin pies with that frozen pumpkin I defrosted..   
    JK> Thanksgiving should be great this year...   
      
   Yes... Happy Thanksgiving, by the way.... :)    
      
    JK> We also are trying something different this year... we'll see how it   
    JK> goes ... Wegman's had an advertisement for a turkey dinner for 12 with   
    JK> all the fixins' So I thought, geez, I'm old enough to enjoy just   
    JK> sitting around like everyone else on the holiday hahaha... so we have   
    JK> an order in for it.  Ron will pick it up on Wednesday this week for   
    JK> Thursday's Thanksgiving, and according to their instructions in an hour   
    JK> and half or something like that we'll have Turkey Dinner :)   
      
   Did that work out nicely, as advertised....?  I've thought about it, but   
   since I'm not feeding 12, or even half that, never really figured it was   
   worth doing for us... :)  But it does look like a nice deal... :)   
      
   ttyl        neb   
      
   ... Here tag... here tagline.... c'here boy!   Nice tagline!
