Friends???

The friend that told me to quit losing weight, pulled one on me Saturday night. I had her and her husband up for supper. She was late as usual. Her husband and I had talked a couple of times that day and she was at an auction (which ended at 4:00). At 5:00 we were both getting hungry so he came on up and we went ahead and ate. She came in with two packages of homemade friendship cake. She proceeded to push one in his face and the other in mine. Her hubby had just had surgery Friday and wasn't feeling very well and not able to eat well yet so he told her he didn't want it right then and would have it later. (But he ate the Watergate Salad I had for dessert though.) I on the other hand told her that I couldn't have it. Boy is she pushy. She kept telling me, "Yes, you can have it, it won't hurt you." She kept pushing it in my face for at least 20 minutes. I held out though.

Then the bwitch left the stuff on my table. I know, I know, I should have just thrown it away, but it finally got the best of me last evening. Dang was it ever good.

I did do well on the fried potatoes. I fried them in 2 tablespoons of olive oil and had a huge skillet full. I told them to go ahead and eat them all because they'd be thrown out if not. I only had one spoon full of them myself. They didn't eat them all and I threw them out instead of standing at the stove (like I used to do) and eat the left overs. I was rather proud of myself ::until last night::

I've learned my lesson. They will just have to eat her cooking from now on. They aren't going to be invited for supper for a looooonnnnnnggggggg time. With friends like that I don't need any enemies. Sure glad I've got you guys/gals out there to help me.

It has been just beautiful here the past couple of days. Clear skies and 70 degrees. Sure wish it was that temperature year 'round.

Is it just me or is there more mud slinging in this campaign than usual? (I think we say that every year, don't we?) I'm getting so sick of listening to it. I just wish they'd have positive messages about themselves and tell us what they stand for not the negatives of their opponents. These negative ads sure aren't going to swing me one way or the other.

Later y'all...
