Karen Des- this blog is fantastic ! I read it while sitting at work in my tiny cubicle eating processed food wishing I was where you are. This entry was quite funny with all the mention of your hunger. I began thinking back to class during our first few weeks, sitting in class smelling steak, veggies, potatoes etc, turning around and seeing you eating bascially a thanksgiving feast when the rest of may grab a muffin at the caf or something. Ha. This must be so hard for you but I'm proud of what you've accomplished ! Keep it up cause I live for these blogs :)

L Dogg Hey Missy, Glad to hear about your adventures. Sounds wonderful, snow has fallen here and cold season is in full effect. I have been in bed for over a week and I am almost at my breaking point! Regardless, I will be home soon for the holidays! Miss you!!

Jeanette Curry Des, I am so glad you are blogging. I have just started to read them. I'm not on here that much but now when I am I will have something to read.
