CWR, sorry you are having this tough time. I'm sending lots of hugs and good thoughts your way. From experience, I will tell you to listen to your inner voice and you will know what the right thing to do is.

Saw my brother's new house for the first time last night. He's two years younger than I, and I will tell you it's a nice house in a nice neighborhood. I just keep reminding myself that I have no debt and he's drowning in it. Somehow, that's not much of a comfort at times.

Now I must be off to see the trainer. Blech. I have been totally slacking off with my diet. Not good, girls, not good! Maybe there's a chance that because I got him a small Thanksgiving gift ($5 Starbucks gift card) he'll take it easy for me. Yeah, right. :o

Has anyone ever seen the movie "what the bleep?". Stayed up late watching it last night. Very good and very deep. I'm still thinking about it....and I'm really tired. Tried to watch it Friday night after my trip to the martini bar, but I don't recommend that:rolleyes:

OTG, have a great workout! You go girl! The only workout I've had today is lifting pretzels to my mouth. I am pathetic.

I'm taking the munchkin to a literacy fair put on by our school tonight. He gets a free book and bag so he should have fun. I'm off to get him!

Okay, I googled. The first several recipes were close, but still wrong.
Buckeyes, besides being the state tree, are also a candy. Not all buckeyes are made correctly. It is amazing how different they can taste. The real ones are awesome. Basically it is a ball of sugary peanut butter, dipped in chocolate, with only the "eye" part of the peanut butter showing.

Here is am Ohio recipe:http://recipestoday.com/recipes/289.php?wcat=27

This recipe has a photo and nutritional info (do not look at the nutritional info):http://allrecipes.com/recipe/buckeyes-i/detail.aspx

I do not make god buckeyes, DLM does not sell good one either and they are gourmet (good thing we ate those and did not send them to CWR). The best ones are from Bill's. Those we had to mail off directly before being eaten. :o :o

I am sorry you could not pop by to visit with him.

You are extremely fortunate not to have debt.

Focus on the fiber and protein, ignore everything else. :D

I wonder if Bill's has any left? Now I am craving one or ten. I shall go for my run and if I still want one after I will have DH go get some. Odds I will still be craving one? Extremely high. :o

Oh, dear, you have NOT been to my house. YOu can have too many books.
we have books in every room, kitchen, bathrooms included.
(okay, no books in laundry room) I have enough books to sink a ship.
I need to get rid of many many... and i am still buying more.

Lucky me I am immune to buckeyes.
but just give me the chocolate!

Only b/c I'm about as subtle as a sledge hammer. :D Delicate subject? Let me maul it aloud. Secrets? Let me jabber on endlessly! :D

Sketches- I sent CWR some little drawings off my wall, with instructions to keep the ones she's liked. So far, she's kept them all :rolleyes:

Well I do want to give her the benefit of the doubt. I am just curious about anyone who starts off the way she did. I was a little suspicious when she mentioned having affairs and I thought her intro was totally different from her other post (***kicker, no photo, no town/state/prov. - unless there really is a Sunny Island)
