Sundays are really busy as hubby is a pastor soooo……finally had time to sit. I try to keep under 40 for carbs. why? I honestly don’t know.

I only see the surgeon once a year and I booted this years appt as it was during the days of brothers death. Robin, I have to do the same thing with food, either flush it or it goes outside for squirrel…[Read more]
