Tomorrow Sean heads back to PSU-up the mountains, over the river, 166 miles from here. Time just flew by this vacation. He’s been helping me with the Christmas boxes which is a job for me. The tree is down and the last of the ornaments are being packed away. I keep up snowbabyland in the front window as it’s a ‘wintery’ display. It will come down in February, but it brightens up the gloomy days of this time of year. The sun did come out though! We had fog, then pouring rain and finally sun! It’s still mild for January-in the 50s. It should be nice for Sean’s journey tomorrow.

I’m about to pop a roast in the oven and toss together (ok, they are fast things to make!) the 7 layer bars-these for Sean. I’m trying to cut back on bread and sugar myself (I hope Brian follows suit). We are only buying ginger ale for tummy problems. Eating the oatmeal bars is filling and I’m not starving for lunch. I got a good deal on Lean Cuisine meals yesterday(6 for $10) and had one for dinner last night and one for lunch today. The butternut squash ravioli is yummy. Speaking of butternut squash, Martha made the soup on her show today and that looks good too. It’s a good veggie.

: )

Have a great, relaxing weekend.

BTW, Jen, left a comment on my blog and she lives close by! We’ve been talking about places to eat and offered each other good suggestions. We’ll have to get together sometime soon!
