FABULOUS FRIDAY

Yay! It's Friday again! It looks like we are heading into another icy weekend. Unfortunately, Netflix hasn't sent any movies...we could sure use them if we get iced in again.

Josiah has been going out to work each night. He says he's the only one on the roads on the way home. WooHOO! Great news for our base....Josiah's boss won a contract and will be putting a Chick Fil A trailer in the BX parking lot from Wed - Sat....still not a real restaurant but hey - it's something besides Burger King. LOL Josiah was surprised at how freaked out some of the employees were at having to go on BASE to work. ::snort::

We were able to go to speech today because the roads were fine this a.m. We did some extra school reading this morning, as we didn't have co-op.

We went to a friend's this afternoon.

Pizza tonight and it was yummy. I was mindful of my cholesterol and only had a tiny piece of pizza and then a big salad....with very little dressing.

*Swiss Family Robinson* just started...we have a zillion old movies we can watch while waiting for the ice to leave and/or Netflix to arrive. {G}

I love the old Swiss Family Robinson! Did you ever watch the old Your's, Mine, and Ours? Love that movie also...lol

I also love both those movies, Lisa! We don't have a great library of movies yet, but have been building it up every year. It is still hard as the Youngers want the more cartoony movies...except for Gabe who loves Batman Returns and Spiderman.

Sounds like a good day...stay warm and safe at home.

doing all we can to stay warm....LOL

Hey, K is getting movies from Netflix online. We watched an old movie via the internet. I suppose push come to shove you could try that.

DeEtta,
You can get a good cheese alternative here made from sunflower oil. It actually tastes pretty good, is healthy and only has the good fat thigy. Can you investigate vegan stores to find something you can use on your pizzas?

Dorothy - yes. I need to do that. I know the low fat cheese they had me on before wouldn't MELT there's a clue that it's synthetic. ::snort:: I could get my own cheese so that I could still enjoy a pizza with the family...last night I just cut one piece in 1/2 and did that.

DeEtta @ Courageous Joy said...

A - took me a minute to figure out who you were! LOL

I checked and the problem is that netflix has frozen our account so they aren't going to let me watch online either. LOL It's the credit card company again. I'm about to call them...because they HAVE to figure this out before the SAGE ordered is charged. I'm beyond nice now....I went out in the ice to pay them and they STILL havne't resolved this.

Sis: Your,Mine, Ours we have. Like it also.

Dr. said Dad's cholesterol is like the Japanese which is way down. Should be because he takes 3 diff kinds of med each day for this.

LOL, Well, Mom - I'm trying to get mine down without meds. LOL

I'm seeing it as a good thing now. When many are starting to lay aside New Year's goals....I have this new motivation to stay the course. LOL
