8:45am

Woke up to it snowing outside this morning.

What crazy weather we are having.

I sure wish it would make up it's mind!

I got chili going in the crock pot.

I added a package of turkey links cut up,

a jar of salsa, a can of tomato paste

and a can of no beans chili.

I'll let this cook throughout the day.

Once done I'll scoop out a bowl for my

son who doesn't care for beans.

Then I'll add in a can of baked beans and continue

cooking it for the rest of us.

Not to sound gross just after talking about food

but my BMs haven't been good these past 3 days.

This morning alone I've been to the potty 3 times.

My stomach has been throbbing as well.

Stress can flare up Crohn's and it has not been

an easy past couple of days.

We have a memorial to go to for our friend

on Saturday.  He had no insurance of any kind

and the family had him cremated.

And if that alone is not stressful enough for me

the thought that hubby's ex will be at the memorial

is making my stomach turn.

Then in another two months we'll both get to 

see my ex at a wedding.

Fun, Fun, Fun.

So my nerves are shot.

I haven't taken my prescription medicine for about

4 months now.  Wondering if I should start taking

them again if my BM doesn't get back on track from the stress

because you never know when it could spiral

out of control and I could end up back in the hospital.

For now I'm just doing my probiotics and yogurt

to see if it will pass first.

11:15am

Well I have made my first submission into the Eggo contest.

Fingers crossed!

I'm not posting what I made til it gets posted 

in their submissions.  It needs to get reviewed first.

$10,000 is the grand prize!

Sitting here eating it now and it's perty good lol.


4:00pm


I've been going through everyone's clothes and
weeding them out.  
Then I started trying on
dresses for Saturday.  I do not own but
2 maybe 3 dresses and so far are not liking them on me.
Hmmm, might ask hubby if he'd like to go
to the thrift store tonight with me to see if I can find one
that I like.  One that looks a little bit more flattering
and has more coverage of all my flaws.
