Blah, blah, blah...

Blah, blah, blah... I'm whining again.

My period has gone AWOL.... it hasn't been around since mid-late February. I get twinges that are like menstrual cramps and I think I've finally started, but when check after using the toilet, it's still not here.

I'm NOT pregnant. I've had my tubes tied for 10 years.... My mom went through menopause at 48... I'm 44, now.

Weirdness.

Quick mini pies


QUICK DINNER -- Create Your Own Signature Mini Pie (and an easy way to get rid of leftovers!)

Mix 1/2 cup of Bisquick, 1/2 Cup of Milk, and 2 eggs together for a base. (put about 1 tablespoon in each muffin cup)

Top with about 1/4 cup of any "fillings" you want. - Cheeseburger, Pizza, BLT, Chicken and Veggies, etc.... You can mix it up in the pan (any meat should already be cooked)

Then top with one more tablespoon of the "Bisquick Mixture" - and bake at 375 for 25-30. It's a great way to get rid of your leftovers! These can also be frozen! Just pop them into the microwave for a quick meal on the go!

Newest update my step-mom emailed to me

 "All of a sudden the progress seems to be leaping forward. For the first time yesterday, Don had a firm grip using his right hand. Yesterday he could not reach his mouth with that hand, today he can. He says they worked on that arm today.
Today he walked across the room with a walker!! He says they have turned up the heat to get him out of here. I think he is also worried about the insurance running out. Whatever the motivation, I'm excited to start seeing daily progress again. He is exhausted when I see him, but he seems to be more upbeat. I think he is getting excited about his progress. More later.
Cathy" 

Yay for the great update!
Thanks Cathy.
