Getting fat on Thanksgiving....

Check out LB's blog...

I decided to take the test for myself and see how long of a walk I am going to have to take Thanksgiving Day. I don't think that I could walk that far in one shot.

A glass of cider or juice, Half a cup of mixed, raw veggies, Half a cup of fresh fruit, One tablespoon ranch dressing, Six ounces of white and dark turkey, Half a cup of stuffing, Half a cup of cranberry sauce, Half a cup of mashed potatoes, Half a cup of gravy, Half a cup of green bean casserole, A dinner roll, A pat of butter, A slice of pumpkin pie, Half a cup of whipped cream, A turkey sandwich with mayo and cranberry sauce, ...that comes to 2375 calories.

You will need to walk 23.75 miles, 38.30 kilometers, or 47500 steps, assuming you cover one mile in 2,000 steps.

Flashback

Sorry Susie, its not Friday but I decided to publish this. I have recently gone through all of my old toys and tried to figure out what I was going to keep, what Sarah was going to be allowed to play with, and what I was going to use for decoration. Here you go! Remember these! Do you have any of yours? These things are coming back... they don't look quite the same though.

Single parenting stinks...

If anyone has wisdom for me on strong willed children I need it. We are really pushing the mommy buttons. Sarah is really usually easy to put to bed but it is not so much fun right now. After a few times being disciplined she will finally go to bed but hopefully my persistence will kick in soon.

Also, my brother Cam is living in Hunttington Beach, CA and working into the music business. They have a sample of their Christmas stuff out. It is really awesome! GO CHECK IT OUT!

Support our troops....

Here is how life goes at the Glathar's....

Mike got home the end of Sept. for 3 weeks. We had a wonderful time together. He fixed a few things for me. We got the garage sorted so that I could finish it later.

Mike left for his deployment on Oct 23rd. It has been a roller coaster ride from there out. The next day I took the kids to the Dr and Cory had a double ear infection and Sarah had one ear infected (no wonder they were so crabby). Then the computer crashed (that is the main way that Mike and I communicate now). I reformatted my computer and am slowly getting everything back on it. My grandma has been here since the middle of August helping me with the kids. I needed to take her back to meet the plane in Spokane. We left Sunday afternoon to go to Missoula to stay with my parents for a couple days before going to Spokane. When we got to Missoula there were some major things going wrong with our Tahoe. As God worked it all together, I talked to Frank Durham and I bought a Honda Odyssey. I spent a couple days with my friend Sarah. We had a blast! We went to Eastern Washington University (where we met) and took a step back into time as we walked around campus. My trip back from Spokane was uneventful and a lot easier with a DVD player! I am now back at home trying to get the kids back on a schedule and trying to be the woman with many hats. We are hoping to go to Texas for Christmas. Thats the latest!
