Ok, only people here at CK would get it when I confessed to my recovery group people tonight that this month I have been really bad about sneaking and going out and getting chocolate candy behind my husband's back and eating it. We made a deal not to bring candy and junk food into the house, and I being the diabetic made a promise to myself I would not even eat sugar free candy in order to keep my blood sugar down without the use of insulin. Some people in my recovery group couldn't understand ...

Today I made some vegetarian chili and had a Boca hot dog for the first time. They were a little spicy but not too bad compared to other veggie dogs I have had. I prefer them over the tofu dogs I had at my brothers house over Labor Day last year. I have never tried the Boca burgers yet, but my daughter eats a lot of those.

Thursday I hurt so bad I called and went in the my pain specialist.

It could in fact be because I have taken off so much time or it could be because I have strained myself when ...Sunday, April 12th 2009
The new dog is settling in. We had to be gone some of the week end, but she did all right and showed she could be left alone for short periods of time. My dog is doing OK with her, but occasionally has to let the new dog know who is boss. I went and made sure my dog got her booster kennel cough shot Friday, but it may have been too late as I think she may have come down with it. Xena is all ready on antibotics for her allergies and was up to date on her shot, so the vet said if she does get it,...
