What's On Your Tuesday Menu, RNYers?

Ack! I remember the sleep thing when I had littles. A friend at the time told me there must be a separate God for toddler naps!

Ugh, I remember those days... as they get older and older, the naps get later and later, until you just have to cut the cord and start skipping those naps!

My daughter napped faithfully until she was 4.5... my son, he stopped when she stopped... he was TWO! Lord help me, those were hard times... 

victory!  it only took half an hour or driving around random places to get him to sleep.  

I changed my lunch because I was having a nasty bit of RH from that stupid rice crispy treat when I got home, so instead of cooking the shrimp I had planned, I shoveled 4 ounces of lunch meat in.

here is my updated food plan

B a bite of egg with brie, a white corn tortilla and Light and Fit Greek Yogurt Crunch chocolate coconut.  coffee with sf coffeemate

L: 2oz of Buddig chicken and 2oz of Buddig corned beef (AV, I don't really like these, won't buy them again)

D: grilled chicken and steamed broccoli

S: giganto rice crispy treat from the coffee shop at the library.  grrrr

totals as it stands.  I'll likely add another snack this evening

Yeah, my son didn't like them either.  He thought the ham sandwich I packed him yesterday was bologna.  LOL  My favorites are the salami and the honey roasted turkey.

Good morning, everyone! At least Monday is over.  We're having a BBQ at my work today, so there will be a smorgasbord of grilled meats to choose from.  Joy.

I slept like crap, bickered with the boyfriend last night and this morning and my mood reflects it.  Not to mention, I have a CRAP TON of work to do. I've been pretty lackadaisical about it all, and not feeling well, and my day of reckoning is here.  I have at least 7 websites that have to be built in the next week and a half, and they aren't tiny ones.

The last time I was really pissed, was last week.  Boyfriend's sister has an adorable teacup Yorkie that she has been bugging me to find a home for for at least a month.  She wanted me to take him, but he's a lot of work and energy (she has 2 younger daughters who have "trained" him well) and I just didn't see him being a good fit with me and my schedule.  But, she's moving to a place that won't allow him and he had made her mad and she wanted him gone.  So, my best friend (single mom) has an 8 year old daughter who has wanted a Yorkie for as long as I remember, and it was her birthday last week, and I knew they would be a fantastic home for him, so I hooked them up.  Best friend's daughter was THRILLED, she burst into happy tears, bought carriers, clothes, and a stuffed Yorkie to "practice" taking care him so she would be ready when she picked him up last weekend.  It worked out super well because Mom didn't have a lot of money to spend on her birthday, and this was her daughter's dream gift.  Well, at the last minute, boyfriend's sister changes her mind and decides to give the dog to Grandma, after she promises it my friend's daughter.   I f'ing LOST it, straight up flipped my damn lid, you don't do that kind of crap to an 8 year old (and this little girl is SO good) and you especially don't do it to my best friend's kid.  I was already looking at puppies to go buy to replace the promised one and was making arrangements to go pick one up because she was so upset.  You had no idea the plans of revenge that were a-brewin in my head.  It all ended up working out, boyfriend's sister ended up letting her take it, after getting told by the entire family about a heartbroken little girl.  The little pup is so happy in its new home too, so I'm all better now.

Bet you guys didn't expect that long of a story.  You asked.

B: Light and Fit Greek Yogurt

L: grilled meats

D: boyfriend wants tacos (I make really good ones), I might design a taco salad of sorts for me.  

Everyone have a great day! 

Oh, I'm so glad it worked out for that little girl!  I was getting steamed just reading that story! 

I'm late to the party but I still showed up!  It's also raining here and my hair looks like the girl from the movie brave. Only not so cute haha

QOTD hmm I think the last time I flipped a biscuit was at my husband when he acted like he was going to kick my bird who was trying to bite him but still.  Don't test me mr if I had to choose you would live at the zoo lol.

I'm seriously excited about these numbers!

This rainy weather makes me lazy... I should be at the gym right now. I need sunshine!!! 

I must admit I get mad pretty easy, lately. Must be hormones. Last time I got mad was at Niagara Falls this weekend. I'm only 4'11" and now that I've lost weight... I must be invisible or something. I'm standing, waiting for my boys to come out of the restroom and this huge guy barrels right into me. No, ops, sorry, didn't see you. So, I say 'EXCUSE ME!!!' He did apologize... we are Canadian after all. lol. But, I was so mad that he didn't even see me, or notice that he almost knocked me over.

Food for today: cheese and grapes, protein iced coffee, crab legs, ham and cheese, cantaloupe, moon cheese and more protein iced coffee.

When people bump into me like that, I always say "Excuse YOU!" and give them a death stare. Americans, huh?? Haha. 

One time, a guy tried walked past me at the entrance of a store ( it was not a huge entrance ) and bumped into me pretty solidly in the process. I said my usual "Excuse you!" and the guy didn't even acknowledge that he'd bumped me. I usually at least get a dirty look. My husband came absolutely unglued. He caught up to the guy, said "You ran into my wife. You need to apologize to her." and then gave him hell when the guy said he hadn't bumped into me. After a few seconds, I could see the guy visibly shrinking...lol. It was funny and scary at the same time. The guy finally relented, and apologized to me. When he did what my hubby thought was a crappy job, hubs made him do it again. The guy apologized again and looked really, really scared. ( I would have too...my husband had a good 6 inches on him. ) 

My husband can be slightly intimidating at times...just a wee bit. 

I would have paid money to see that.  LOL
