Tuesday Morning Roll Call
One day closer to vacation for me . . . Yippee!
It is another dreary morning here in Mid-Michigan . . but wow crazy humidity! I had quiet time on the porch this morning at 5:30 and it was so muggy . . my hair is crazy curly today.
QOTD- Is there a certain food that you are having a hard time with . . or foods?
I gave up all flour products about 6 weeks ago and was using pretzels . . now I am addicted to sunflower seeds. . roasted and salted . . I put them in everything . . veggies . . salads . . and eat by the handfuls but they are high in calories and fat . . my doc's says good fat . . but not in the quantities I am eating them . . I need to get a grip on this!
It's time for my blueberries and yogurt . . have a great day!

Hey Michiganders ! Sorry I've been away all summer, it is busy busy busy, love it ! Going to try to get out here a time or two each week, we'll see what happens. Need to keep my boss happy.
QOTD - I don't think there is any food I have a hard time with, after all these years I know what my limits are so I eat very little of anything that I would have a hard time with, and those always were sweets, can't eat them now. I limit my carbs better this past years since I got back on track last November. Believe me tho, not perfect by any means but I just mentally handle it all better now.

Morning all,
This summer has been so hot and humid I feel like I should be in Alabama or something! My house windows have condensation on them almost every morning, one morning it was like one of the windows were frosted, we could not see out of it at all, bizarre!
Q: Well there are two kinds of hard....literally 'hard on your pouch' and 'I have a hard time controlling myself with', luckily I have both!! I have a hard time with dry meat, I'm still not a fan of chicken, to dry for me. And I like my white! I don't eat a ton of it, but pita chips, pretzels.... yep I slip on those a little to frequently.
Have a hot and humid day all (like you have a choice)

Good morning all!
I had a cup of Kristy's Vanilla Caramel Protein Tea this morning. That was the last serving in my batch so I'll have to mix up another batch soon. And I just finished my carbmaster yogurt with fresh sliced strawberries -- so yummy!
Not much going on today. Hopefully it'll be quiet at work. Then I'm heading straight home after work to enjoy some quiet time and some treadmill time (too hot to walk outside today).
QOTD --
Right now I am in a good spot with my food. I feel like I'm finally over my little rebellion of the past few months and I'm back on the straight and narrow again. But a couple years ago I realized that chips and salsa was a problem for me and I had to put salsa on the "Never Buy" list (because when fresh salsa goes into my shopping cart, tortilla chips automatically appear too, I have no control). Jarred salsa is fair game though because I don't eat that crap, but it's fine in recipes (yes, I'm a salsa snob).
Have a good day all!

Breakfast was not very interesting (as usual).......I can hardly wait to get to the next stage of my diet. Blergh!
I had to go shopping today because tomorrow is my wedding anniversary and until today I haven't even had the chance to pick up a card yet!. While out I was able to pick up a couple of the art magazines I love, some lotion from Bath & Body Works (something I don't normally splurge on), a pumice stone, some more of my vitamin D pills and new brushes for the ponies (they've been needing new brushes for a while now).
I got home just in time to meet the farrier who is covering for my normal farrier. The ponies were WAY overdue on their foot trims. While I was in Italy earlier this summer my farrier was out of state working and got injured. I was beginning to feel like a TERRIBLE owner but there was nothing I could do about it. I'm just glad I was able to get a replacement farrier to do the work and I feel like I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. The ponies also got their deworming done and some treats to make up for the trouble they had to go through today.
Now, I need to get to painting. I keep putting this watercolor off because I just do NOT like to do watercolors but I'm starting to run out of time if I want to meet my deadline. This upcoming show is TOO important to miss! Sigh.
