LD had to go out of town. He left today and will be home Saturday.
I ate spaghetti and meatballs out of the can for dinner and I'm watching Jerseylicious.
Send help!

Yes, it's a reality show about people in Jersey. Jersey Shore but with older people.

@ Jrc!!!
Sad, I think I'll have cereal for dessert! Thanks for the idea. What kind of cereal are you eating? I think I have Honey Nut Cheerios, Honey Bunches of Oats, and Capn Crunch in the house.

Used to be able to eat it right out of the box, no milk. Now, not so much. Not into the sweet stuff as much as I used to be. Getting old I guess...

And it always makes my mouth feel funny and I have to brush my teeth right after I eat it.

I think the sweetest cereal I've eaten in the last year is either Golden Grahams or Corn Pops. Inused to grab the sweet stuff first thing at the store. Now it's more likely going to be regular Cheerios, Rice Chex or Life.

Before he left I told him I was just going to sit home and eat chocolate and wait for him to get home.

OHMYGOSH, IT'S NANA!!!!!!!!
So, my contribution to your downfall is that you should squirt Hershey's chocolate sauce directly from the container into your mouth. Forget the spoon, it's just one more thing to wash. Think of it as a challenge to get that stuff in your mouth without triggering your gag reflex.

I love facetime when Crazz is out of town! So much easier than Skype.
