Hi Chick and everyone else here,

Hello Chick, Sue and all those that check in
Sue, we could never forget about you! CONGRATULATIONS on your ongoing success. You're doing FANTASTIC!
Chick, my dear, what are you up to today? Hope you're having a wonderful day. I think you mentioned somewhere that you were weed whacking today?
I'm getting ready to put in a turkey breast in the oven for dinner.
It's a kick back day for me. I broke my sweetner fast again.
Other than that i'm on plan and drinking the heck out of my water.
Wishing everyone a fantastic Low Carb Sunday!
Love ya, Sherri

Re: 8/17 Roll Call

Yummo! Stew sounds good. I was thinking about stew yesterday.
How hot is it there? It was 108 here yesterday. But only in the 90's today. We have rain coming this week and supose to be in the mid 70's Boy. i'm looking forward to that.
Wishing you a great day Chick!

Re: 8/17 Roll Call

LOL It's only 86 here. But anything above 70, and I want AC!! I hate winter, but I hate heat! If i were mother nature, it would be 68-70 degrees year round, with a slight breeze, rain between 10 am and 2 pm when we're not supposed to be out in the sun anyway, and snow on Christmas Day, just because

Sounds like perfect weather to me, I love the way you think.
Ya, it's 90 out right now. I have my AC on and have a turkey in the oven. It's a cool 76 in the house.

Re: 8/17 Roll Call

Hi all!

90s and 100s ~ blah! I hate hot weather. Maybe once I'm skinny I'll like it more. I'm with Chick. It would be heaven for me if it were 68-70 everyday year round.

The duct work is torn apart in our house. We haven't used the air at all this year (not really by choice though) ~ too many projects, too little time. I'm about to head to the kitchen to prepare some meals. Since I'm just melting sitting at the computer it's going to be a killer in the kitchen.

Talk to you all tomorrow.

Chick ~ what's your stew recipe?
