What's on Your (photo) Friday Menu, RNYers?
Rainy gloomy day here in Illinois. Lily and I got out to walk a bit before six. We got half way through our regular route and it started raining. I opened up the umbrella and was ready to head home but Lily my boxer wanted to finish her walk so we did. She walked at a heel beside me under the golf umbrella and we did our 3.2 miles,albeit a bit damp lyrics. She was far more dedicated to exercise today than I was. Sometimes she saves me from my lazy Self! Food for today B 1/2 c steel cut oats with protein and peanut butter added L 31/2 oz deli turkey with cheese 1/2 c green beans D 1/2 c meatballs with sauce 1/2 c cauliflower S mission one cookies and cream protein bar. Weight today 117 and post op 4 years 2 weeks.
Getting excited and working to pack the RV so we can head out Sunday after church for about three weeks. We will be back at least by the 29th. Don't really know exactly where we'll be staying just general areas and hubby is doing two different weekend cowboy shoots during the time. Next weekend we will get to spend several days with our oldest son and his girlfriend in Hopkins Minnesota so we are looking forward to that. Haven't seen them for about a year so it is long overdue. Mainly excited to get out of town and away from church and food pantry obligations for a while. When you beg others for help and change and get neither it gets to be a burden. Prayers appreciated for my church from those of you who do as we deal with financial issues,divisiveness and apathy that makes us a hot mess right now. And sadly the only person I can control is me. So I'll be missing for a few weeks but will post when I get back and I'll try to get hubby to take some pictures for me as Lily and I take walks in some new places. Have a great weekend everyone and make some smart choices!
I'll keep my eyes open for the RV, in case you head my way.
