Cybrarian I am sorry to hear about your day. Give your grandson (and his mom) lots of hugs, it will make you both feel a little better.
Muriel I did the same thing to my wrist, two years in a row. I don't do well on black ice. I was just a kid at the time but haven't had any problems with it since. Just follow the doctor's orders.
Mary Jane, happy birthday sounds like you will be having fun.
Rita's mom I only use real sugar, mostly because I have never been able to tolerate any of the artificial ones.
Oh and I do have one tat, a butterfly, it is on my belly right above the bikini line. It stretched out quite a bit when I was pregnant, and it has shrunk back down but the color is a little faded. I didn't think it really hurt, the outlining just stung a little.

Well it has been a rough day for you all. I wish for everyone to have a great day tomorrow.
Carol it was nice to see you post. I hope you are handling things better.
I have spent all day sewing and now by back hurts. No matter what position I put my chair in or height my back will always hurt. I do take lots of breaks.
I use artificial sweetner (sweet n low) I have reached a point where I don't like the taste of real sugar. It tastes too sweet for me. YUCK!
Good night all. I am going to bed and get some rest. Hopefully the phone doesn't ring at 6am again because the schools are opening 1 hour late. There was only a dusting of snow, whimps! I hate it when they do that. I would rather get up and watch the news and get that info. ;/

I don't eat FAKE anything so it is real sugar for me. The healthiest sweetner is molasses but golden syrup is good too.
I would rather not have anything sweet if it is fake.

There is so much conflicting information about it, it is hard to know what is true. :?

OK just stab me with a fork.............I was sick and lost 3 lbs last week. Over the weekend I have been eating like a pig I am above my suicide weight. I am 187........grrrrrrrrrrrrrr I have been having hot fudge sundaes with Jim and all sorts of crap. I never have crap in the house but he has been doing our grocery shopping and I can't resist. On top of that nothing is satisfing my hunger. I have to lose........I said it a few days ago I can't have fat s*x.
