Today, I am grateful for all of my Mayo Clinic Connect peeps. I get so busy with things I drag my feet at connecting with everyone as I should. Untreated ADHD or old age? In any event, it's good to see you all on here and hear about what's happening in your lives.
I'm Diabetic. So yesterday I delivered our stash of candy to the kiddos at the medically fragile classroom. It was well received and the kiddos were so beautiful. Today I am making a Mississipi Pot Roast in the crock pot. Our church group is having a pot luck, and I want to bring something low carb that I can actually eat. I await seeing the opthamologist to see about changes in my optic nerve. ( 11th of this month)
I need to pick up test strips at SmallMart, as I am completely out. Having this scare with the optic nerve, I am staying really strict about my food intake, as well as keeping my blood sugars low.
I need to go by the store and pick up a heavy sweater for my daughter, who recently was discharged from the hospital. I am so grateful her IV Antibiotic treatment for her cellulitis was a success.
I will be praying for our members here who have procedures and tests lined up. I am thankful for you all.
I am so thankful that we are not alone
Have a great weekend. Love and light,
Mamacita Jane

@mamacita I hope you have a great weekend too. Also, I’m with @gingerw, recipe for the pot roast? Sounds like a great fall and winter dinner and low carb too!
We live in a nice town just outside of Manchester. Last night rain was predicted so Manchester changed their trick and treat night to Sunday, so the Manchester kids were getting brought into our neighborhood by car loads! We had to cut down on how many treats we were giving and even then almost ran out. I thought I would have loads of leftovers because I always buy too much to avoid running out but we had three small snack bars left! On the good side, the kids really seem more polite than they used to be. All said thank you, and there were no discarded wrappers on our lawn.

@mamacita I have been lacking in connecting as well. I need to use my energy for the "have to do" stuff. Waaay behind her at connect. 🙁

@mamacita Ooooh, tell us about the Mississippi pot roast. Low carb? Great! No potatoes? Even better for me! How was the church group pot luck?
There was naught a trick-or-treater here last night. We have a small town, and they held an event on the elementary school gym from 5-8pm. Our town has poor lighting, very few sidewalks, and uneven ground. So holding that was a great idea!
Hope your daughter is doing better each day.
