We're watching the game, and I think WQ is going to end up making me a Redskins fan. I was born and raised north of Chicago, so spent my childhood rooting for the Bears...I was 17 when they won the Super Bowl. I converted to a Rams fan while living in Missouri, and then cheered for the Panthers while living in NC. Since relocating to Florida, I was never able to get on board with the Bucs, and a lot of that is because they blackout the games. Looking forward to some halftime snacks.

As long as that's not Velveeta (real fake cheese) I'd probably eat the whole thing........

For years I've used no bean chili and...

It tastes very similar to Chili's skillet queso. However, I happened to come across a kit that was less expensive, plus on sale BOGO, and we all liked it just as well.

Betcha if you read the ingredients you'll never touch the stuff again........

I'll pass on being a health nut for special occasions.

Yum. And I think somebody else in the CS is a Redskins fan? Was it Nosmo? Or Spoonie? Can't remember. But as a Cowboys fan and archrival to the Redskins, I'll love you and WQ just as much anyway.

No, I don't think it is BBD--I'm pretty sure he's a Bears fan.. I could be wrong though. Ollie is a diehard Cowboys fan and Chris is a Pats fan and MDK is a Steelers fan--not really sure about anybody else.

Hey Hossfly. Happy to see you stopped by.

I was in Albuquerque for a week at my Regimental Reunion. Great city.

Hey we were supposed to get together when you got here. But I was in the hospital all last week so the visit probably wouldn't have been much fun.

I was in Hatch, NM 2 weeks ago and got a mess of Hatch Green Chiles for friends. My neighbor makes the best Hatch cheese dip in Texas. And Velveeta is banned around here. Ugh!

Yep. I got an upper respiratory infection in Albuquerque with a dry cough so bad that my doctor said the cough was causing my heart to fibrillate. Now I have to see a cardiologist on Wednesday and I hope it won't cause me to postpone my drive to Deadwood, SD on Thursday. Hope you're recovering nicely.

I believe BBD is a native Virginian...and I recall Ollie and him having a friendly rivalry since Ollie was a diehard Cowgirls fan.

Fair is over here. Too bad the giant pumpkin fell and they had to cancel the giant pumpkin weigh-off.
My daughter and family are now in Okinawa. There's an open professorship at the University. Since I will not be moving South to Ft Lewis, I suppose I will apply for the position. Cross your hooks for me. I've been teaching as an adjunct for 15 years and that may tip the scales. The job is about 8-5, Mon-Fri, with summers and a month-and-a-half off. That will give me plenty of time to ship overseas and plague my daughter. AND...it's indoors!
Although I confess, since it has been dark at night, and clear, the Northern Lights (Aurora) have been spectacular. I will miss working graves.

I will definitely keep positive thoughts for you so that what will allow maximum joy for you is the outcome in all this. However, we don't always know what that is until we have it. And congrats on that weight loss. As soon as I have my blood work looking decent again, I'll be back on a more sensible diet hoping to shed a few pounds, but for now I have to push the nutrition, protein, etc. to get my system back in whack.

Good nutrition consists of good, fresh food, sensibly prepared. I've learned to not only do without sugary stuff, I don't crave it anymore, either. I've found that the biggest thing about losing, and keeping leaner, is to change your diet.
You know, joy can be found in many places and we are often responsible for whatever joy we find in our lives. I will dearly miss the time I might have had with my daughter and granddaughters, but with the schedule offered by the University job, I should have ample time to visit them in Okinawa.
How are you coming along, Foxy? I'm late to the discussion, as usual. I'll probably catch up shortly, though. I am wishing for all the best for you, good healing. And thank Hombre for his kind updates when we would all have worried.

Oh so sorry. We'll put you on the vigil list for some positive vibes for wellness by Thursday. At least it couldn't hurt.
