Good morning (on the West Coast), good afternoon to all the rest. Yesterday was the Day.From.Hell. at work. So much to get done and not enough time. Today is shaping up to be just as challenging. Back to back meetings with no time to get work done and everyone is bringing me problems looking for solutions. I did leave work right at 5 last night to go see Beautiful (the Carole King musical) at the Pantages, which was fabulous. It made for a late night (in bed at 1:15 am, up at 6:30), so I will be dragging later today. I will probably need some caffeine and I do not drink coffee.
Things I can't do. So many things I am sure, but two that come to mind are whistling (always wished I could do that super loud whistle) and polish nails (mine or anyone else's, fingers or toes). Braiding really isn't my thing either, but I guess I can sort of do a basic braid. Oh yeah, and water ski. I tried that in my 20s until my arms were spaghetti noodles with exhaustion, but never mastered it. Now I am up to 4 things (and will probably think of others as I read the posts later today). Way to depress me about all of the things that I can't do. LOL. Actually, I usually can do almost anything I set my mind to, I just didn't set my mind to these things I guess.
I have to talk about yesterday's menu because we ate at a place near the Pantages that we had not tried before and they actually had Zoodles on their menu. I didn't have that, but I did have the chicken lettuce wrap tacos, which were delicious. The cashier tried to tell me I would want to order something else because they were 3 small tacos, but they were just perfect. I want to try the zoodles dish next time.
Today's menu will be flexible. Only have a very brief lunch in between meetings, so will probably get the Wendy's apple pecan chicken salad. I will probably grab some shrimp skewers on the way home because I hate to cook (I could if I wanted to, so that isn't on my can't do list-it's on my won't do list).
Have a great day! Tomorrow is Friday!!!!!!!

Hi everyone. Very late posting today. My meetings started this morning at 7:30 and have been stacked on each other since. I am working from home today, so that helps.
Sorry about the disappointment, Kristin. Grief bacon. Ha! Better than grief cake!
QOTD: I cannot do that loud, fingers in mouth whistle. I'm always jealous of people that can. I also can't sing. As a public service, I always lip sync during those group sings, such as Happy Birthday. No one wants to hear my cat-trapped-in-a-dryer singing.
Time since Surgery: 19 months
B: Egg Beaters, mozzarella and bacon omelette
S: Cherries and ham
L: Chicken thigh and curried cauliflower
S: Prawns
D: Rib eye and 1/2 steamed artichoke.
S: Dried mango

I love Dried Mango, it seems like I am eating candy! mmmmmm I might have to get some! You know I love artichokes but that is one veggie I would never think to make myself. And a lot of you have posted about fresh cherries this week I need to get some!
I too lip sync during the singing of things like the national anthem at the baseball stadium because I am a horrible, horrible singer.
