I made it once and it went in the garbage. It was horrible. Every year I tell hubby I'm going to try it again (jokingly of course)  and he always says "The h--- you will!!!"

So much for that.

In my opinion there's not much that can't be made better by the addition of green or red chili.  I cook pinto beans with lots of green chili and bacon bits with a bunch of spices and they are sooooo good.  And the combination of potatoes and red chili to me is just one of the best things ever.

I posted a while back about a woman who was divorced sat down at a football game with dh.  I was at home working.  Anyway, dh told me about it and he said he did not ask her she just sat there and they enjoyed the game together.  I said okay.  Anyway, 6 months later dh asked her if she was willing to lease out that 10 acres of land that she has so he can plant hay.  She said he could.  He did ask me if I was okay with it.  I said I was.  Well dh went to pay her first months rent and boy did she ever give him the old sob story about how her ex was.  She also tells him that several men, married men, have been out there coming to call.  She turned them all down because all she wants to do is raise her kids and ride horses.  

The only man I ever really chased was dh and I was pretty cut and dry with that.  Most the time I admired men at a distance.  I have ran around with some pretty wild girls and they would give their potentials a sob story about how awful life is just to play on sympathy then they would brag about how every man in the world “wanted” them.  Is this what this girl is doing?  Trying to play on DH sympathy and then telling him she is a catch of the town. 

I do know my dh.  He is more likely to run off with a tractor then he is with another woman.  I can almost 100% guarantee it.  There is always a slight possibility I could be wrong but who knows.

Another thing that worries me, is if this gal really is flirting and dh doesn’t want to “join her circus of men coming to call”  is she going to run him off the property after he put all that work and money into it. 

I don’t know why I worry so much.  She probably is just one that likes to talk, it could be innocent. 

My husband was an attorney who would come home at night and tell me about how his secretary would flirt and carryon with him.  He had little derogatory names for her.  She had sad stories for him as well, about raising three young daughters on her own, etc.  When I was in the hospital for emergency major surgery she even offered to take care of our home and make him dinner, etc.  I wasn't jealous at all, but I did warn my husband to be careful of her and the situation.  Long story short ... they had an affair, our marriage was over, and I lost everything. (He's since married and divorced from the secretary.) 

Just because your husband shares with you about his time spent with this woman does not mean he is or is not having/or will have a relationship with her.  The man I am with now would never dream of spending any amount of time for any reason with a single woman without me along with him ... not because I have asked, but because he believes this is the right way to show respect and love for me. 

Jealousy isn't that great, but being smart is.  Some men with really good hearts can be kind of naive.  Just something to think about.  Your DH sounds like a good person. 

a pack of 8 regular sized crayons is 2 for $1.  I can get a pack of TWENTY FOUR crayons for 17 cents.  But a pack of 8 large sized is $1.50 a pack at the cheapest.  I found them at winn dixie for 2.99 a pack.  I need 2 packs. Six dollars for 16 crayons??  That's highway robbery...geez

Along with very painful sinus pressure and throbbing. Guess it is sinuses after all.

I rested all day today and I was going to go out to dinner but just taking a shower tired me out so much I couldn't do anything else. Of course, I hadn't eaten anything all day, but still....tired of this!!

Thanks for listening, y'all. I'll quit whining now. 

and make sure to have a happy, happy Thanksgiving!!  Yummmmm my favorite veggie dish you're making....yummm yummmm *laughs*

ENJOY!! 

The girls all line up and walk through a room as if they are modeling on the catwalk. Get a couple of bright colored boa's from the party store. It's a real riot and the kids have a blast especially if a couple of brave boys grab a boa and do it too.  We've had many a birthday party doing this and it was totally hilarious.

We had always said 3 and that's when we stopped.  They are all teenagers now.  Wouldn't change a thing either.
