(LOL)

We haven't had turkey in decades. Henry hates

almost all meat and Ed was never a fan of turkey.

hunted down a turkey pot pie recipe on the 'net and this

is the finished product.

Looks good!

home

Henry only had Thanksgiving and the day after

off when in college. Even then the semester's finals finished just

2 days before Christmas.

>Middle son graduated from Driver's Ed,

My condolences. Who's paying the car insurance

for *2* teen drivers now? LOL

>so

now I have about 5 months before he can test for his

license. They make them have the learner's permit for 6

months before they can test up for the license. That way,

they have 50-60 hrs of practice driving in.

I caught a glimpse on tv the other day that NJ

is going to change their teen driver rules around again but didn't

pay attention to details. Remember Henry *hated* to drive and got

a heck of a lot less than 50 hours behind the wheel before going

for his driver's test, probably less than 20. Heck, he *still*

hasn't driven 50 hours total and he's had his license 10 years

now.

So you're finally going to make things

official, take them up to the next level? Congrats!

> so I want to design "my ring".... he

said that sounds like a great idea,

I agree. So much more personal.

> Heck, it's up to him to take it and

run, right??

It's then up to you to accept it! LOL

>Weight isn't bad going into the weekend, following

Thanksgiving, so if I can just keep things in check and

move forward will be ok.

I was actually lighter the day after

Thanksgiving than I am this morning, and I've been eating

perfectly on plan since the splurge of sweet potato pie on T-day.

Right now I'm up 9 1/2 pounds from January 1. (sigh)

>Right now, I am sitting on 13 lbs lost in 13 weeks,

so am pleased!! WHOOOHOOOO!!

Congrats for this, too!

>I'd like more (like 2 lbs per week

average) but cannot complain over 1 lb per week.

I'd be happy with a half pound a month a this

point! I'm still going up and down the same 5 pound range.
