Thank you EVERY ONE for the get-well cards, Thanksgiving cards, e-mails and

good wishes on my surgery. I removed the bandages yesterday and now have

just 3 large band-aids covering the 3 areas that have 4 stitches each. I

helped cook yesterday (much to my families dismay) but went to bed feeling

productive and useful. I am NOT someone to sit around and let others " do "

for me....yesterday was proof.

I am home alone today and loving it! I will watch 3 weeks worth of ER,

Providence and Once & Again (my 3 favorite and only TV shows I watch each

week). I recorded all knowing I would have the house to myself today to

watch TV to my heart's content. Now, if only my tush doesn't start to hurt

from sitting so much!

Thank you also to everyone who posted about the fruit. I gained back 2 lbs

over the last 3 days since surgery. I was " good " yesterday but I think it

was the comfort-food that I ate on Tuesday after surgery that did me in! 22

carbs in 1/2 cup of tapioca pudding did me in! Oh well, it made me feel

better - that is what counts! I will lose the 2 lbs plus more over the next

few days without problem. I will wait for fruit until Summer....just wanted

to know if I can snag a strawberry once in a while if available.

Sunday is our big family Channukah party - can't wait to see all 22 of my

family together in one place (my house). God Bless Catering!!!!

Hope you ALL found great bargains shopping today.....I, for one, will be

surfing the net later on looking for DEALS!!! Not driving or being mobile

for 6 weeks is going to certainly be a challenge!

Enjoy the day!
