Morning all

Good morning, Chat Folk.

@KDOGG331, sugar is your enemy. I went low carb about 6 months ago on the advice of @FridayYet for inflammation relief. End result - I lost 10 % body weight, BP 117/78, inflammation greatly reduced and no migraines. If someone like me can do this, so can you.

You all want to see our project house?

Looks pretty good! Not even sure what NEEDS to be done.

Step 1, get rid of those nasty CFLs in the bathroom and put in some LEDs Not sure what is holding up that A/C unit!

I wonder how @FridayYet is doing, haven't seen posts from her for some time.

Some of the things we need/want to do:
paint everything
take off the ceiling popcorn in the 3 rooms that have it
make a door from the master to go into a 3/4 bathroom
create a new bath off the hallway using part of the existing bath (it's huge)
replace kitchen counters & appliances
kitchen has laminate flooring, see if there's hardwood under there (it's everywhere else)
take out the old non-functioning swamp cooler
replace a couple of cracked windows
landscaping yard/trimming trees
create an off street parking spot behind the garage (there's an alley back there)
fix the backyard fencing
and I'm sure we'll run into other things...

Forgot...prior to 2011, the house had a flat roof then a hip roof was put on it. The downspouts are all covered by the newer hip roof so we'll fix that when we put up guttering (no gutters now).

Hey Kdogg, if I could give up my heart & soul (ice cream) you can do it. I switched to those little Snack pack puddings but, abusing them also. So cut that out too. I am able to buy one small candy bar but will not temp myself anymore with XL or Giant ones.

Told my brother if he brings Halloween candy - just 3 or 4 mini bars.

You are a strong woman! Good for you!
