Just as to me, there is no such thing as a spoonful of ice cream for a taste and go whistling on my merry way. No..I can’t do it. For me, it’s however much I want, or nothing. I choose nothing. But I have given the impression that my draconian diet measures are the rule in WW. Not so at all. I just know my weaknesses. Most people do just fine limiting their portion size with favorite things as in chili, desserts and so on. Me..I’d rather do without than go there. It’s just a personal decision for me..nothing to do with WW. Matter of fact they encourage you to eat normally. Just not much. 🙂
I was on my way back home today and I heard an oldie but goodie on the radio. "Stranglehold" by Ted Nugent. LOVED that. I find it was good to rock down the road with on the way home too. WooHoo! It’s running through my mind as I type. I have to leave in a while to head to The Big City. I wish I had a CD with his stuff on it to listen to.
I am going to make my way around to more visits. I only got part way through today. I have looked in on those who gave me comments..always a first step.
I am going to try to get a picture of my hair for those who have even a infinitesimal curiosity about it. It’s not one of my knock ’em dead hair days but not too bad either. It’s wavy enough that the length looks shorter till you pull it down straight. Miss Catt likes it, especially when it is freshly shampooed. She spends a lot of her (NOT MY!!) quality time trying to scent it with her head’s scent glands in the MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT for pity sakes!!! Dang. I woke a half dozen times with her effort, me swiping at her feebly, mostly asleep, trying to get her to move and lay down. Finally she got torqued at my unappreciation of Feline Perfume No. 9 and left in a huff. Excuse ME!
It is so gorgeous and so perfect out there I think I will just go on ahead and bottle it for later on. I must have some containers around here somewhere. Oh, the sun is shining..there are the so-called fair weather clouds in the sky (none of the formations that make me dive for the camera though) the humidity is low, no winds to speak of..the silence is noteable around here except for my birds. They are quiet now that I make mention. I haven’t heard any for awhile. I have, by the way, 2 female hummingbirds still here at the feeder. I wish they would go on back to their Winter home. I am keeping to my own pronouncements and leaving the feeder there knowing that when they get good and ready, they will leave. My feeding them is in no way encouraging them to stay. They can’t think like humans. It’s instict all the way and so I trust that when they are ready, they will pack, get their train tickets in order and move.
This is getting ungainly again..too long. Byy.
I love chili and I haven\’t had any in 100 years. The number one reason being I don\’t handle spicy stuff well. I like chili with lots of shredded cheese on top and ritz crackers. Will you serve cheese with your chili? If so, I will set the Maalo* bottle out and I will be there in time for supper. I love ice cream too and a half gallon will last me a month. I say, after we have our chili, let\’s you and your son go with me to the Dairy Queen for a waffle bowl sundae. Shoot, now I am hungry.
I have never heard of Ted Nugent but I am glad you got to listen to him today.
Have a wonderful time with your oldest!!!
OMG! What willpower you have! I wouldn\’t be able to resist a big bowl of chili, with a little grated cheese on top! Don\’t even mention the ice cream! Hold off on the pic of your hair. Hold out for one of those knock\’em dead days! That\’s the pic I wanna see!!!! I still have a couple of little hummers myself. Enjoy your son\’s visit. My best to you and your feline treasure! Hugs
I sure wish I had your will power to stay away from my favorite foods. I\’m trying but it isn\’t easy. As I sit here writing I\’m also eating a half of a ham sandwhich. It\’s on whole wheat bread BUT I do have some miracle whip on it ;(.
While your in the big city you can pick up Ted\’s cd.
I\’m one of the curious so I\’m looking forward to seeing your new do.
Hugs
Sherry
Just read Beth\’s comments……….waffle bowl sundae! Absolutely to die for. Think I\’ll be visiting her soon and we can pig out together! She never heard of Ted Nugent!!!!!! Ya gotta remember, Beth\’s a country girl! She loves her country music!
Yes I would like to see yer doo, hair doo! I know it\’ll be from the backside am I right? Lol!I haven\’t heard Ted Nugent in a long time! I have to rock more in this western county. Chilisounds wonderful. I spose yer gonna have one of those Willie Wonka meals eh? What happenswhen you stop dieting? Does the weight all come back? Is there meal plan of sorts? You do havewill power and more power to ya! Hummers are gone here I believe but I keep food out for them.Have a great time!
Tee hee ha ha!!
Funny thing is out in the shop while I was reading this very blog…. THAT song was just finishing up. CRAZY!! Tee hee ha ha It is a great tune and does need much volume!! 🙂 You have amazing will power and you should know how very proud we are of you!! I do wish to loose a few before I gain the few that I do every winter… tee hee ha ha I have to laugh because my cat was trying to do the same thing to my brother the other night… DROVE HIM NUTS! Tee hee ha ha
Have a beautiful weekend!!!
ttfn
I agree with the others on you willpower. Like Sherry I am eating as I read these but not a sandwich. A Brownie. Wanting to the see the do also. I\’ll have the waffle bowl sundae, don\’t care much for chili. Have a good weekend.
Hugs, Terry
Reading about Miss Catt reminds me of the first kitty I had as a young adult after leaving home and how he would like to kneed my long hair when I was sleeping. Kitties do love scent and texture and I love how they have their own individual preferences. I\’m a bigger fan of Nugent today than I was as a teen, although I appreciated his music then, too.
Thumbs up to you as you continue to do well on your WW! I love to have mildly spiced chili on cold days with a big sprinkle of shredded cheddar on top. K loves the spicier chili with the cheese on top and with crackers the way Beth does.
Have a great hair day and a wonderful visit with your son!
I have only the barest rememberance of what fall was like already, it\’s been snowing since last night and still is going on and on…the big high of today was 32 degrees, I guess the honeymoon is over. Enjoy your day to the fullest…just not the fullest stomach I guess 😦 Have a great weekend for me would ya?
I agree with you about feeding the birds. It\’s important to keep feeding them until they leave, and their leaving wont depend on whether you stop feeding them.
I like that song too, but Ted Nugent sure is a freak! he\’s a sexist freak , too!
Warm hug, Frana
So you like "Sweaty Teddy" Nugent too, quite the charachter that guy!
Well you have seen my Doo why not yours, what\’s up with that? LOL
2am this morning I hear a gentle rustling then meow meow etc… Hi Bonnie! I mumble,
she went away finally after awhile zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Hi Sis! I .m happy to heard you having a good time with listen to Ted Nogent songs that make you woo-hoo! to come home lol!
Your way of diet is good that I try to not have unhealthy food in cupboard too.
Millie\’s hair: I waiting for awhile to her hair get long after she has lost hair..but it took too long ha ha ha
I wish I can bring her over to your home ..would be wonderful idea, BUT unfotunately NOT….Dreaming! maybe we could meet at Hawai?
Miss Catt\’s enjoyed lay down on your hairs it\’s feel likes bird nestlol!
XXOO
Enjoy your visit and I\’m glad you are having a good day. Can\’t wait to see your doo! Never heard of Ted Nugent? Am I missing something? Have a great weekend. Hugs, Pat
Sounds like you had a good, so glad to hear that. I have a feeling that with son home you won\’t even miss the chili. lol I\’m a chili girl myself, can eat it for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and SUPPER. Notice, there\’s 4 meals there – that\’s how much I love chili. Well thanks to your earlier post educating us about hummingbirds, I realize I had never seen one, until a few weeks ago.I looked out and there was one buzzing and doing whatever it is they do on/to/with the pretty red flowers by my front porch. Oh wow! What a beautiful sight. And, I said to myself, "Thanks to Carole, I now know what a hummingbird looks like." Before your post I thought they were simply \’mosquito hawks\’ or something like that.
Carole I would have never taken you for a Ted Nugent fan. See I learn something knew everyday!Save me some chili!
Chili? Hot and Spicy? If so, I\’ll eat yours for you. Yummy!
Love ya,
Al
Hey, great, song. Singer is Derick St.Holmes. His wife passed unexpectedly here in Atlanta last year, up till then he played only locally. Him and Ted split up over….hummmm…..creative differences, a shame, they made great Music together. I\’ll take any leftover chili…….save me a plate please ……TY
McTell……
I think most birds heading waay south. Robins and squirrles around here make way too much noise….LOL.
I think I remember Ted.N. It rights a bell. Chilli I love and love to make. Have a Great Saturday
I want to see a picture! I need to get mine done, that would be nice. I had a cat that liked sleeing in my long hair, it was annoying at times. Ted Nuggent! Man I haven\’t heard him in a very long time. Now I have to go find some music. Glad you are having good weather, still waiting for the cool down here. Well take care
Wendy
I\’ll take a bottle of that perfectness…if you could hold it and send it out around February 1st, I\’d appreciate it! LOL
Those little hummers know when to go. I was thinking they\’d hang around too long, but about mid-September they vanished…probably headed down to your feeders.
Chili sounds good…have you ever made it with ground turkey? Lots better for you and you can\’t tell the difference in taste at all.
ya i could never do the small portion thing…♥~♥ :oD because you shared a smile…someone\’s day got brighter… :oD ♥~♥
