((side story here----we have a friend that had brain surgery Monday morning-he had a large tumor on his brain and it was discovered last week, anyway today we went to the hospital to see him and we circled the parking lot for 10 minutes before dh got so frustrated that we left. No parking places anywhere exept one area that was designated "patients only" ack ---I had called his wife ealrier to ask what time would be best to visit, and she said about 10 am so then I had to call her and tell her we could not find a parking place.Huge hospital and more construction going on to build even more hospital area. They took part of the parking lot to build the additional building.)
now back to aldis, so they had a sale on some of grandbabys favorite snacks. Cheese curls, and corn chips and something else, my mind has gone blank. Those are some of his favorite snacks and I love the way he eats maybe a handful and he is done. Problem is they are also my favorite and my hands are a lot bigger than his hands and seldom does one handful or even two handfulls satisfy me. So far I have managed to resist, and as soon as I finish here I am putting them away. You know out of sight out of mind. Anyway I can hope that is the way it goes. I do have some sugar free jello made and I love that, maybe that will soothe the raging "I want =I want=I want", side of me.
The chips are still in there and I am still in here.
One of my grandsons favorite songs.
LITTLE DAVID
"Lord, it's Thine, I'm in Your favor.
I'm giving it all to You, I knew not what to do.
I'm so glad You let me see, You're really all that I need.
For the battle's not mine, I give it to You, Lord, it's Thine."
1. Little David looked so small, Goliath looked so tall,
The odds were just too high for Little David.
So he shook off all of his load for with the power of God he was bold,
He said, "The battle's not mine, I give it to You, Lord, it's Thine."
CHORUS:
2. A Little David he stood tall, now Goliath seemed so small,
Sweet victory had reigned for Little David.
He gave the battle to One with a record for getting things done,
He said, "The battle's not mine, I give it to You, Lord, it's Thine."
What is it about having something in full view in the kitchen that just makes it irresistible? I'm glad you're putting it out of sight and out of mind, Joy. Every time you talk about Aldi's I wish there were one closer here. Very kind of you and dh to try to visit your friend at the hospital, except I wish there had been a place for you to park. I know the family understands.
ReplyDeleteLove ya! Keep up the good work.
Hmmm. "Out of sight, out of mind" Hmmm.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to have to try that--amd quit getting the snacks that call my name from inside the freezer!
