Oh Denise I am so glad to see you!!! I have been a big mouth in the past on this subject & I am am just dieing here. I am so upset & really there is no reason to be so. I really do need some support.

Ninner, its a huge adjustment to go from being MOM to just wife again. When my kids moved out, I was lost at first! Cooking huge meals for just 2 of us! DH put on weight! :lol:

At first there weren't many calls, then they got homesick and started coming home more frequently and calling often! :D

I'm making Singapore Chicken if it kills me, dammit! Otherwise, I'll have to throw away the chicken I got out of the freezer early Tuesday morning.

I am roasting a chicken and potatoes. Veggie undecided. I also really want to bake bread tonight but with a chicken in the oven I don't know that this is feasible.

It's hard at first, but give it 3 months and you'll be doing the happy dance, LOL :D

I've been cooking a lot of stews and chilli's lately as the weather has turned really cold here of a night. So, I think a change is needed today.....Strip Steak, baked potato and some kind of veggie for tonight's meal.

Good job I got off early from work this afternoon as I forgot to take the steaks out of the freezer this morning..... Blonde moment here..... :shock:

Good Morning Everyone it is Ninner The Empty Nester.

Thank you for the words of encouragement Denise. I really do need them & I know you are right. Due to all the packing my house looks like a tip but I do not give a poop. Plus at this point in time I have no intention of cleaning it up.

Dh took me out to The Ship (seafood) last night. It is a place we go often run by a young chef that I like. Dh told the female bartender that Dd had left so it was free drinks on the house for the evening. I had the cajun gumbo & the poe boy catfish sandwich both were very nice.

Tink the weather here has turned cold. Frost on the ground so chili & stew sound good.

Dinner will be grilled hamburgers that I made yesterday. Plus it will be a movie night.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Assuming I really do have a few hours off between shifts this afternoon, I'll be making Easy Salmon Cakes with Creamy Dill Sauce and a couple of vegetables.

Today is the Spectrum Health Service Awards Dinner at our convention center.
