There actually are some things that are (or can easily be made) gluten free. Desserts, probably not easily. Now, fat free -- not possible. 😉 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought we might stay longer but after the campus tour (which was fairly unnecessary for us) we were both tired and ready to go. Plus the Bad Weather is on it's way and I didn't want to be driving in it. Ds18 said he thought he would be fairly comfortable there. I am always super impressed with the president of the school and the staff and faculty I encounter. One faculty member stopped to pray for me when I started blubbering at the "Undecided Major" table. I see a dark cloud making it's way over. Probably I should have some chocolate. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Bean Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 (edited) Hi! I’m just puttering along today. I printed a student guide. I really wish I had my own spiral paper punch. ASD Son finished his BJU stuff today. He chose Monarch for new school stuff, so free trial is happening starting Monday. I’m glad it’s in time for their annual April sale. DS17 made dinner tonight. Roasted red potatoes, meatballs, and broccoli. Little Man is sleeping on my floor again. I’m going to watch a movie.

Ellie Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 The funeral was today, at the gravesite. I did not attend; I went to the church to be the "project manager" for the reception afterwards. We had plenty of food (I think there weren't as many people as my friend expected, also), and the ladies were very experienced and self-motivated; they just needed a little directing. I stayed for about an hour after my friend arrived from the funeral, then I went home and took a nap, then went back briefly for another church thing later. Finally came home to stay, put on the jammies, and napped the rest of the day, because I used up all my spoons and was DONE. Laundry tomorrow, because I couldn't do it today. Next week I have a bone density scan, after which I'll be fighting with my new endo about how my low TSH means my thyroid meds are closer to where they should be and not that the low TSH is "causing" bone loss. ::head desk:: I'm so sad that my former endo moved to another state instead of staying here to treat me, because he knew better. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrissiK Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 Good morning!! We are off on another adventure. Today it's Valley Forge, Washington Crossing the Delaware and we end up in Philadelphia. Tomorrow we have a full day in Philly and then leave at 5:15pm for home. This has been an incredible trip. Part of me wants to just keep on going and the other part is exhausted and wants to go home. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheres Toto Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 I was woken up to one EXTREMELY LOUD crack of thunder at 4am. Other than that, our big thunderstorms have mainly been a dud so far. I really need to go to work today to do some cleaning up (since I was super lazy while hanging out there yesterday), but I can get away with a few hours this afternoon and a few hours tomorrow afternoon, as long as I do a little bit of laundry both days while home. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
