Hi Gail
My Dad had gum disease- his gums receded, and he lost all his teeth. Like you, I do the floss, and the Sonicaire water pic thing. I also use a Sonicare toothbrush. I seems as we get older, they just keep going. I hope you do not lose any more.
I hope the family is ok. I will pray for all of you.
That is great news about you SIL. I so love the good news we share, from time to time. It gives us all hope things can improve. We all need hope. Some day, it is hard to find.
I guess we all had issues with Windows 10.
My Dad never got a chance to approve of Gary. He died on Dec 23rd, 1988. I was only 38 years old. I miss him, like it was yesterday. He was my best friend. He stood in the window, when I left for work, and when I came home at night, and waved. That is a huge reason we sold the property- I could not walk up the walkway without sobbing. That is when Tillie move din with me, instead of us being in 2 separate houses.
Hope your day is a little better.
Adele

Hi Colleen
you are not the boring grandmother. Your grands love you enough to spend a whole week with you and Ron!
It is no way to lose weight. I went the other way- had to buy one size up….LOL I did sell a lot on Ebay. I had quite a good time doing it. You should try that- Quacker goes really fast. My shirts were sod within one week- some sold before I finished loading what I was selling that week. I am going to have a Christmas sale on Ebay too, as soon as they come out of hiding…..LOL
It is chilly here too. We are getting the remnants of the hurricane that is in Texas. All rain is coming, and a lot of it. But, not anywhere the amount Texas got.
Thank you for the compliment on the muffins. You should have seen Aizen eating one- he loves baked goods. Aizen, Jhonny, and JJ tasted the left over chicken and dumplings. They want to come for dinner when I make it again, hopefully this week. I guess that recipe was a huge hit. I am glad. I am especially glad Gary like sit. Aizen kept saying, “pot pie, pot pie.” Steph said he loves pot pie. What a funny kid he is.
I will be doing the little ghosts for Halloween, for the grands. I hope I can get them to look more like a ghost this time. That is on my agenda for Friday. All the crew love those cookies. they are a simple meringue- all egg whites, and some sugar. They just tale a long time to bake on a low temp.
I hope you get that appointment soon for your stomach. Having all that pain is no fun at all.
Adele

Hi Barbara!
I am the other full figured one here….LOL I could hide a lot of trick or treater’s behind me, but, they would have to be short….LOL
We all need to say a prayer today, for all our lost relatives who need to find their way. Some are in more trouble than we realize, and only prayers can help. I am saying, and sending them to all those we know who need a helping hand. So many people fight demons every day. It is heartbreaking.
My other wish is for all our children to fins a good person, who loves them, so we can see them happy before we leave this earth.
I am not much for sports, either. I watch the big games with Gary, as he watches all the girlie shows with me.
Is jerry thinking of surgery for his back? You know, if mine did not have 2 curves, I would be golden after the surgery I had.
I did the Windows 10 a while back. I had to re-do a lot of things, before I got it right. Still not so sure I have it all.
It is nice that your family finally accepted your hubby. Some times people do not realize how good a person is, and they lose so much when that happens.
Wishing everyone a good Sunday!
Adele

Cynthia, you have had a terrible time lately with losing so many relatives at once. It seems you lose people in bunches. That happened on our family too. So sorry for all your losses.

Hey Cynthia
Love the picture. That was great that you lost the weight. Middle age, makes everything look different. No matter what size we were to start with. Do not feel bad, you look great! We are way more important than how we look. It is how we treat people, and our attitudes about life. Our inner selves are what really matters. That you were able to beat cancer, is the most important thing. That is a miracle, and we are all glad you are still here on this earth.
Hope you are having a good day!
Adele

That is funny, Colleen
So, we would let them eat before going…..LOL LOL

I have attached the picture of the pumpkin muffins I made this morning. My therapy for the day.
JJ is here, while his parents go to the store. He is doing Lego’s on the table ,and I am answering emails.
It is dreary and dark here today. Cold too. Very winter like.
Hope your day is brighter!

Hi Gail
that is the answer to our problems….we have been responding to talking chocolate. When I eat my talking chocolate it says…….”Quacker doesn’t have a 4x”.
Of course you were depressed about the tooth. Who wants to lose one? Then you add in the cost for the pull, and the new denture- yuck. I know a lot of people will just leave a space, so that is a possibility. What are you thinking of doing? Unfortunately, our ages have been affecting everything.
I am also sure you have been worrying yourself to death by chocolate, with Brent not home yet. How long is the peanut harvest?
Potato bread would be good with any dumpling…..LOL It is good on it’s own too.
Tonight is Tom Selleck night- yahoo!!! Bring out our husband’s cowl neck cardigans….oh, yeah… Gary does not get his until our anniversary….LOL LOL
Hope you have a good night.
Adele
P.S. We are also guilty of buying, and eating the Halloween candy. So, I say to Bobby that someone needs to get to BJ’s to get a huge bag, and he asks why we need one for the (literally) 4 sets of kids that come to the house. My answer..,,,,,,”If you have to ask that question, do not come looking for the leftover Reese’s.”
