What's on your Wednesday Menu?

Morning Everyone! Happy Hump Day! Thankfully, my mom canceled her appointment yesterday due to bad weather, so I got a surprise day off! The weather was super crappy all day. We got lots of snow in the morning that eventually turned to rain here and it was just messy and yucky. I stayed in and did more experimental baking and lots of boring little things that were on my to-do list. I also finished reading a very depressing book. I really need find something happier to read today, because that one sucked my energy. Blergh.

So far, I've had a bunch of first round phone and zoom interviews but tomorrow is my first in-person interview, so today I am going to spend most of the day trying to make myself look like a person who actually leaves the house regularly, lol. I have a haircut this morning, then I am going to go shopping for some new interview clothes. I might even get a manicure! I haven't had a manicure since before the pandemic and swore I would never do them again, but this might be an extreme cir****tance. I need all the help I can get!

QOTD: Do you pump your own gas? In New England we have a chain of convenience stores called Cumberland Farms which have gas pumps out front. They have an app that gives you $.10 off every gallon plus lots of in-store rewards. I have used the app almost exclusively for a decade, so that means I pump my own gas (unless Grim is with me, and then he often jumps out to pump!)

• protein coffee
• egg bites
• chicken street taco insides
• mini cukes
• ?? tbd - chicken or burger

Good morning and happy Wednesday! Only one day in and we're at the halfway mark, that's awesome!

sounds like you have a fun day ahead of you and good luck to you tomorrow!

im getting ready to hit the gym and then one of my favorite coffee shops is about a 5 minute walk and they open at 5 so I have timed things perfectly. Then back and get ready to bus to our all day meeting. The kick off happy hour was fine and I had a bite of Mac and cheese, 2 chips with cheese sauce and a small portion of gorgonizla and strawberry salad and a glass of wine. It felt balanced, lol.

qotd - we haven't had full service gas stations since the late 80s so yes, I pump my own gas. All our local grocery stores have gas stations and you get 3 cents a gallon off no matter what but get 10cents a gallon for every 100 you spend each month, no app needed just your phone number.

menu today will be

coffee plus half and half x1

medium latte

yogurt from the grab and go breakfast

tbd on lunch, I wasn't able to get the DL on who is catering

filet with aspargus

have a wonderful Wednesday everyone!

I love it when timing lines up perfectly, enjoy your coffee.

I just want to point out that you got to the gym, and then coffee shop that opens at 5:00 am. Now you see why we call you a rock star?

Mornin y'all!

I have an appointment today with my peer support gal and that's about it for plans. Of which I am thankful for. I've been up since about 11:30 or so. Every time I try to go back something annoying happens. Namely my left leg going to sleep from the mid thigh down. Very annoying. My carpel tunnel is also flaring which I could surely do without! So I'm going to drag today, all day.

Next week we have appointments every single day but Friday. My mom has her echocardiogram Tuesday and cardiologist Wednesday. I have my mental health NP on Monday and PCP on Thursday. I have one this coming Friday with the pain clinic for a med refill.

QOTD: I do pump it most often but my mom does too. I don't even think thee is a full service station here.

food is unplanned

Wanted to share these too. I adore this design by a friend(same design different number of points). They are both mine!

I hope all the appts go well.

Good morning gang. It's chilly here! But the snow on the trees is beautiful.

Slow day for me. I've got PT and food shopping. JB is still debating today's haircut. Short? Long? She's asked me several times. My advice for her, and all of you, is: Don't ask me for advice on hair styles. And don't listen if I do offer it.

QOTD: I think the only times i've had someone else pump gas for me is on long trips. New Jersey is the only state in the country that outlaws self-service gas pumps. So every place on the New Jersey Turnpike has attendants pumping gas.

Yup, I just sang "clamp your ham".

Speaking of Ham. Stop and Shop in Putnam and I believe elsewhere have Cook's brand Butt and Shank hams on sale for .69 and .79 cents a pound until the 18th. I bought 4 and didn't even spend $20.
