Sunday Roll Call

Hi Peeps,

Lisa, G and i are like Hubert, Valentine's Dayis just another day. I recall being younger and wanting to have a Valentine, tho.

Dawn, A year! I am so proud of you. Girl, you are one of the strongest women I have ever known. Congrats.

Crystal, congrats on setting your date. Destination weddings are so much fun.

Yesterday we went out to Elmhurst Hospital because G is on call and I just wanted to hang out so I went along for the ride because it was a quickie call in the lab. We then went to a cute 12 table breakfast place called the Omelet House and since the only thing on the menu that I could eat was plain oatmeal, I made the most of it and ate my mush slowly. We then went home and G snoozed all day since he was out all the previous night on call. Call is only once every 6 weeks so it is doable. I made the best chicken wings I have ever eaten for dinner last night. The longer I go on this food change the easier it is becoming. Today will be a challenge. We are celebrating G's birthday at an Italian Restaurant today and I doubt I will be able to find anything......maybe fish.......

Yesterday I prepared my meals and snacks for the week. I made hummus, baked sweet potatoes, cooked lentels &made sure I had all my protein shake ingredients measured out and in individual bags etc. Planning keeps me on track. But I am having trouble drinking the water. Man, it's hard to drink for some reason. Maybe scheduling that like my food will make it happen better.

Today is church, then G's lunch celebration. I cant wait to see those babies!

It is sooooo cold, please be safe and warm Dear Ones!

Hugs to everyone

Sharon

Good Morning,

I agree Sharon, the main plan for today is to stay warm. A lot of hot chocolate and herbal tea will be drank today. My preferred clothing will be a sweatshirt and jeans, with nice warm socks and a blanket.

We went out last night, and I had a rack of ribs. Ok, I ate 4. They were fab. So, today, we will finish the ribs, baked potatoes, a salad, and another side. Apple pie for dessert. I may put on a pot of soup, just because.

Crystal's wedding will be a dream. I am so happy for her.

Sharon, I like your idea of cooking and prepaing for the week. I will have to try that.

Please stay warm and stay safe today.

Hugs,

Chicken soup from scratch on the stove as I type. Been to Best Buy and Staples. Needed a cable to hook up a PC to our flat screen TV that is over the fireplace. Ended up getting the wrong one but found out it can be used with my new laptop and monitor at my desk. That works.

I have off tomorrow and we are going to the Chicago History Museum, RJ Grunts and then possibly over to Lincoln Park Zoo and Conservatory.
