Hello girls
Colleen- you can freeze the tomato’s and make a gravy/sauce later. You can also make the sauce, and freeze it. When we make one, we make a huge pot, and always freeze some. I will freeze some in a big bowl, for a big meal, and then some in a smaller bowl, for just me Tillie,and Gary to have a quick meal- then all you have to do is heat, and eat….of course make the pasta you like….LOL
So far, I just have you 3 as friends on here now.
Gail- I hope the kids have a good week in school. It is so hard when they do not take well to new situations. It breaks your heart to see them in pain. Heather is like that. She hates change, and gets very anxious about everything new. Bobby just rolls with the punches. JJ gets anxious. In every picture I have of him on the fist day of school he is holding his little hands together. He does that when he is anxious. In this town, they do not tell the kids which home room they are in, until the day before school starts. We think it is because all the parents want certain teachers, and they drive the school nuts to change their kids teachers. Hence, the mystery, and anxiety for the poor kids. Last year, JJ got the good teacher. I hope he is lucky again this year. He had a horrible Kindergarten teacher, who hated teaching. That was awful.
Colleen- Heather does that to herself. She actually vomits when she is anxious- all day long. She makes herself sick when she is upset, anxious, or something new is occurring h in her life. Like….Marissa driving, and going to college. Heather sat in the parking lot of the college, and cried, the day she took her to orientation. And….she is NOT living there. Can you imagine what she will do when Amanda or Marissa get married?
Hope all the kid shave a good week in school. We have another 2 weeks before we go.

Hi Girls
Glad everyone got over here. I did not get an email for Gail’s post, so I think I have to do something. I thought I hit the “get an email when someone responds” but, maybe I did not.
I hope Gaby and Enya like their new school. So hard when they have to change schools. When we moved here in Heather’s junior year, that did it for her. She never made any good friends until much later, when she worked in day care. She felt very out of place, because the other kids were together all their lives.
So what does jenny serve for Friday night dinners? I am making Gail’s zucchini crescent pie tomorrow. I also want to make zucchini bread. By the way, no zucchini to harvest yet. My one pepper fell, and rotted. I do have some grape tomato’s, and so far 4 plum tomato’s. Pretty sad harvest. I could have saved money buying them at the store, instead of getting the plants…LOL LOL
that will stink if we cannot post any pictures. How will you see my Halloween decorations?

Hey Colleen- Glad to see you are upright!

Tillie got some things form the show last night, and I could not see anything I wanted. I am hoping for a fabulous Halloween/Fall show soon.

Bobby put up our new TV today. Gary is in there watching the Red Sox- he is thrilled. I am calling it his birthday present.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend. it is cooler here tonight, but the humidity level is 80%- GROSS !!! the air is on, thank God.

Gail- any news on your SIL? We are all still praying for her.

Hi Girls!

I found us!!!!
Doctor apt went well. I do not have any arthritis in my knee. he does think the bursa is a little inflamed. But, I did not think it was t at the level to get a shot for it. I will see what the back doctor says next week, then I will decide. The hip doctor said the pain I am getting in that hip area, is not consistent with hip pain. He feels it is all the back. I am really glad about that, because that means I do not have issues in yet another joint. The bursa will heal itself, as long a I am not doing anything to stress it out.

We went to breakfast this morning- the Gary was thrilled! Went to the International Pancake House- one of his favorites. After the doctor, and errands, I got my ice cream! Even though I was not hungry at all, I did not want to miss the opportunity to get my One Summer Premium Ice Cream…..LOL cost for 2 small dishes of soft serve, one with chocolate dip…..10.00. LOL LOL Just have to ask- do you guys pay the same prices for those premium homemade ice cream places?

Angel is on- thank God we are home to watch!!!
