Watching The Hellfighters - haven't seen it since I attended a sneak preview at the Chinese theater. Didn't like it then, and don't much like it now.

Sandwiches were quite yummilicious.

Oh, and since today is weigh day, I can happily announce I have now officially lost twenty and a half pounds. Another ten for sure, and maybe five after that and I'll be happy.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

DR DerBrucer, thank you for the article on sweeteners; I've only been using them for my morning coffee and I've been trying both Splenda and Equal to determine if I like one better than the other. They're both so sweet that I find a half a packet is plenty per cup.

I hope your coffee is caffeine free. Keith saved an article from Nutrition Magazine for me to share with you & MBarnum.

I googled the info in the article, a study from Duke University Medical Center, & found the following:
"Caffeine seems to impair the metabolism of carbohydrates in patients who have type 2 diabetes," said lead author James D. Lane, an associate research professor of medical psychology at Duke University Medical Center. "So it seems to make diabetes worse."

For more on the study Click Here for a similar article.

If you switch from caffeine to decaffeinated, I suggest you do it slowly to avoid headaches.

It was a great weekend and a wonderful visit.

Fantastic, DR Jose!

My niece was so tired last night that when i read her her stories last night at 10pm, she fell asleep in the middle of the 2nd book. The ducks, wiggle, waggle, piddle, puddle and little quack all fall asleep one by one. And after little quack fell asleep i looked over and she was asleep too!

This morning when she woke up she asked "is party over?"

Taking a Shearing break - The Hellfighters put me to sleep. It's one of those films that is a soap opera interrupted by action sequences involving oil fires.

My niece wants to go to her favorite restaurant on her real birthday, Costco. My aunt and my sister are not amused by that. But i think it would be fun.

Everyone else gets to go to their favorite restaurant!

Well... Thankfully, Uncle Jojo noticed that they had posted the departure track for Train 135 before they announced it over the PA system, or my brother and nephew would be standing in their train car right now. My brother texted me and said that it was basically standing room only, but they managed to find two aisle seats across from each other. Hopefully, once they reach Philly the crowd will thin out a bit. From what I could tell, it looked like a bunch of people who attended the Yankees games this afternoon were also trying to run for that train.

But, again, it was a good visit. And, yes, I did get a little verklempt as I gave John his hug.

I just heard from DR Ginny via her cell phone. Ike just came through the Cincinnati area and my hometown is without power. Ginny said it could last a couple of days. I need to call my brother Randy and see how they are doing.

Don't call me "Hazel," unless you put a witch before it.

How do you spell that?

Costco.

No Chuck E. Cheese or Farrell’s Ice Cream?

I'm trying to remember the other place we went that was like Chuck E. Cheese.

Well, maybe they can have the meal at Costco, and then dessert somewhere else.

*Would all her friends and party guests have to be Costco members to attend the party?

I <HEART> and miss Farrell's. I believe birthdays 7-11 were celebrated at a Farrell's. -Well, we even celebrated our birthdays then even when it wasn't really our birthday.

DR elmore, thank you for the update on DR Ginny. Are they fine otherwise? Do they have water?

I hope all is well with the good brother & family.

As for Chuck E. Cheese's, well... Even when I was a pre-teen, there was something off-putting to me about kids, cheese, games and pitchers of beer all under one roof.

*Now, Shakey's was a different story. Of course, Shakey's didn't have Skee-Ball or Whack-A-Mole.
