My first birthday clean..

Well, today is my birthday, and my anniversary, and my 10th day clean, and my first clean birthday/anniversary in 5 years. I guess you have to look for the small victories in life :) Plus, there's CAKE.

I'm so sorry I missed your birthday yesterday!  So, a little late...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY and HAPPY ANNIVERSARY and HAPPY 10 DAYS!!!!!!!!

Way to go!  I'm happy for you and proud of you!  And, after reading the posts on this thread, terribly hungry!  LOL

I haven't been eating for the last few days...I've got a nasty bug of some sort.  I think it's the same one I got on the honeymoon...back bigger and badder.  I finally broke down and went to the Dr. today.  Tim was threatening me, the last two nights, with a trip to the E.R.  

He's getting my meds now, so hopefully I'll feel better in  day or two.  Nothing narcotic, btw.  Antibiotics and prescription expectorant.  To top it off, I think I'm getting another kidney stone!  Lucky for me, they usually don't cause me any pain...just nausea.  And I have phenergan for that if it gets too bad.  

Talk to you soon!

The first thing I'm going to do when I get to heaven is look up my grandmother and ask her to make me just one of her fried chicken and dumplings dinners with biscuits and gravy.  I wasn't born in the south (California to be exact) but my mother (and grandmother) were from Mississippi and my dad from Arkansas and I was raised around southern people and southern food and my mouth is watering thinking about it.

One of my fondest memories of my long gone youth are my grandmother's sunday afternoon fried chicken dinners.

I actually made chicken and dumplings last Friday. Not nearly as good as Granny's, but anything with a pint of heavy cream and a stick of butter ain't all that bad. I can make gravy, but biscuits still allude me. That's why I usually just fry something and put the gravy over it :) Geez, I thought the pills were killin' me..may be all this stuff :)

Y'all are the best. You know, this cheesecake would be all yours if I could get it to y'all. My mother-in-law is making my favorite meal, too. Chicken and Dressing (it's stuffing..just in a dish..we don't put it in the bird in the South..what did that chicken or turkey do to you, anyways?  :)
