I had a small sweet potato, with a tablespoon of i cant believe its butter,

And i boiled a boneless skinless chicken breast. With salt and pepper, curry, garlic powder and some soul food seasoning. After it cooked i put a tablespoon of BBQ sauce to the side so the bites of chicken wouldnt be to dry,

All was good, filled up quick even tho i was slow eating

Terry that's awful, pray he recovers well after surgery. Very difficult being away when our children are injured. Doesn't the forces have access for family during these times?

Yogurt. Not feeling it tonight. Bad news from my son. He's a marine training for his next deployment. He was rappelling out of a helicopter tonight and fell to the ground' date=' shattering his leg. He's in surgery to repair it - he needs a plate and screws. I wish I could be there but he's in California and I'm in New England. He's no baby, but he's MY baby. :-([/quote']

I'm so sorry to hear this...I'm sure he'll be fine, but I know how bad you must feel not being able to be with him.

Sending prayers for your son! He will always be your baby no matter how old or how tough :-). Thank him and his family for protecting us at all cost. Peace!

Still no news. I know it's only a broken leg - it'll heal. It could have been worse in so many terrible ways so he's lucky. I'm just missing him and wanting to be with him. He's 22 and not married, so he has no family to be there for him. He's got his platoon buddies and a few of them are really good friends. Maybe they'll let him come home to heal? He was supposed to start his second deployment after the holidays (he's security for Force Recon) but that's not going to happen now. I guess we'll find out more in the next couple of days.

Prayers for your son.

It never gets easier when you have a loved one serving in the military. Very unpredictable!

Hopefully, you get to hear from him very soon.

hugs and prayers terry....

Thanks you everyone for your kind words, thoughts, and prayers. Still no news.

Yesterday and today were my 'I'm a moron' days. I gave into homemade chicken Schnitzel and sopapillas. Didn't have much of it and luckily for MFP, I didn't cross over my cal limit at all. Still, moron move to eat fried.

I'm over my Schnitzel craving now.

Cooked for the family- beef roast in crockpot all day, cooked down yellow squash with onions, grilled marinated mushrooms, and homemade mashed potatoes. Everybody ate tons and I ate a tiny plate with a little of everything. All sitting good.

Soon will be time for all the kiddies to go to bed finally. Been a long day!

Beef stew from the crockpot. Delish. Too bad I can't send some to all if you since it made so much!! Need to buy some freezer bags.

I want to buy a small crock pot. Mine is a big 5qt - fine when my kids lived at home and we were a family of five - but WAY too big for just me and my husband. I miss my crock pot recipes, especially now that the weather is getting colder.
