I havent been around for quite a while. My mothers been ill and I've been helping take care of her. Sorry to those of you who have written me and didnt get a response. I will write you back soon. My mom had a knee replacement surgery in august. Well, her wound got infected. Come to find out, the knee cap that was put in her was the reason for the infection. So they had to go in take it out and put a new one in. She has spent a week in a nursing rehab, several weeks in the hospital. She had an allergic reaction to a medication and almost died. And with the last 3 surgeries she has had, she has developed blood clots. Thank the good Lord that this time she has not. She still walks with a walker and she is an IV drip daily that keeps her from getting another infection. I just pray that all goes well. My poor mom has really been put thru it. If she would happen to cross your mind, would you please pray for her? Her name is Eunice. I sure am glad Fall is here. I love the cooler days and evenings and next weekend it will get dark out earlier. I am a fan of that. I know, I'm weird. I just love the cozy feeling in my home when the weather is like this. For halloween, our town is having trick or treat on friday. Me and my fiancee will go to my mom and dads. I am going to make pumpkin bars with cool whip icing. This is such an easy recipe. All you do is mix 1 large can of pumpkin with 1 box of carrot cake mix. Nothing else. MIx that together. Pour into a sprayed pan and bake for approx. 20-25 mins. Top with cool whip when cool. This cake is so wonderful. It is moist and tastes just like the original pumpkin bars but only without the cream cheese icing. I'm sure you could ice them with cream cheese icing if you wanted. That would be good too. My baby's birthday is Nov. 6. He will be 31. I have not a clue what to get him. He likes Nascar, country music, etc. I know he wants an ice cream cake from dairy queen. So I will get him that. I have been trying to go to bed earlier. But as you can see, its almost 3 am and I'm still up. I got up yesterday and had 2 cups of coffee. I stayed up the whole day, no naps. Then I spent the evening at moms while my dad worked at the church. Christmas is upon us. I am looking forward to it. However my siblings always look forward to my sweets--fudge, cookies, caramels. But this year I dont think I'm going to be making all of that. Maybe a little of it, but not too much. I have too much weight to lose and those sweets arent helping. lol. well its time for me to get to bed. If your reading this, you take care of yourself and God bless you! |
