saturday in may

I don't have a lot to post about except my health. I got to the end of my rope.  I had to do something.  So, I did the only thing I could.  I went on a low carb / high protein diet.  It is the only diet I could do that hopefully works.  Especially with diabetes.  I have been at it for 4 days and have lost 3 pounds. I am really proud of myself.  I am going in the right direction and I am not hungry.

Things have been going good lately. We took Scruffy to the vet.  He got updated on his shots and some medicine and cleaning of his ear.
A mole got in our house (thank you cat) and we locked it in the toyroom when we couldn't find it.  We didn't want to just leave the cat to get it because he would have dropped it on me when I was sleeping.  Nice gift.  Papa is in there today cleaning the toyroom out looking for it.  It needs cleaning out anyway and getting rid of toys.  The grandkids outgrew the Barbies and toys. :(  Keeping Kevon's wrestlers though. He's had them a long time and all the grandkids have played with them.

And we are keeping Andrew's ambulance.  And a few stuffed animals.  But I heard a lady say on hoarders that keeping things  because they bring back good memories keeps you hoarding.... and they won't mean nothing to our kids down the line.  So it has helped me to throw things out.  I can always take a picture if I want the memory of something.  Easier to store and delete. haha!

The flag is out for memorial day weekend. 

It took Alyssa, Jessica, Charlie (her boyfriend) and Dylan to breakfast the other morning.  It was fun. Interesting conversation. I am pretty blunt with my girls.  They are use to it though.  I think I am their Aunt Lorraine.

Papa got another hummingbird feeder.  Now we have two and they are using them both. We get up to a dozen birds at a time.  

Well I just wanted to check in.  Have a great weekend!
