 I made Lauren's Magic Cookie bars! Here's where you can get the recipe. http://healthyindulgences.blogspot.com/2008/12/healthy-magic-cookie-bars-and-christmas.html

Her pix are much better. These are actually a little too sweet for me. She did say they are better the next day. I'll let you know!

Here's Darlin Dan putting on the bottle toppers!

!Aren't they cute?

Wow-it's Friday and now I have 2 weeks off from school.....................lots of things planned.

 

My test results came out good. So happy and relieved.

I'm getting prepared for my test......colonoscopy! This year's physical exam has really made me feel old!  I found out today that I will be getting 2 more hearing tests within the next 2-3 weeks.

This physical exam has kicked me in the buttocks this year. Not only did I have to have a 2nd, close up mammo because of some suspicious spots, but I'm getting a colonoscopy next week....yippee!!! By the way, the 2nd close up mammo came out okay.

 

My sis came for a short visit. We had a great time. My bro-n-law made some great Chili and we provided some tamales and queso....yum!

 

I've been a couponing fool. I love seeking out the deals. This is so much better than gambling! I  CVS and Walgreens. Target is 3rd!

Well, I went to the ENT and I have inner ear problems-and a hearing loss in the right ear. I've been put on steroids and will take another hearing/balance test next week..............
