Good Morning Daisy! We are getting some rain here at the moment that is much needed. Hope a nice warm cup of coffee warms up your bones. I had a great weekend, for those that don't post on the weekend-hubby and I made a day trip to the beach and I got my tattoo I have been wanting for quite some time. It's on my wrist and is of a dove with my daughters heart beat EKG attached to it. 

I am on vacation this week an aside of having to log in for a few hours for work here and there I am hoping to enjoy the time away.

So sorry to hear about your dad, but I am glad that he is able to see the best and will send prayers for sure.

Any idea when you will hear the results from Amy's tests?

QOTD: Nothing other than family portraits and that kind of thing.

Time since surgery: 2 years, 3 months

B: SF latte, egg beaters topped with shredded cheese, 2 sausage turkey links

L: Grilled Teriaki chicken (no sauce)

S: SF latte, Light and fit pumpkin yogurt, and a boiled egg

D: TBD, meeting some friends for dinner will probably be chicken

E: 6 miles done this morning

Have a great one!!!

How lucky are you to be able to go to the beach in November . Your tattoo sounds amazing . 

Good Monday menu goddesses and gods.  I am so envious of your snow this morning.  On the news they showed Syracuse, and I cursed Kristin and her good luck.  Kidding!  Kinda.  

Daisy, I am so sorry about your father.  This is such a hard time, watching our beloved parents struggle with aging. There is so little we can do, except show up for them and love them.  I wish I could give you a hug.  Hang in there, and love to you and your family.

QOTD:  I have mostly original and vintage art work.  I have original art from local artists, and vintage pieces that I've picked up on my trips to Paris.  I believe they are wall paper samples from the 1920's, and they are beautiful. I also have a series of framed menus from a Hawaiian Cruise Ship from the '40's and a bunch of Russian and Polish icons. The oldest is from the 18th century.  Finally, I also have a collection of Santos. The oldest of those is from the 17th Century.  So, an eclectic collection of stuff.

i am dialing way back on the carbs this week. I am up towards the top of my acceptable range, and I don't like it!  I've noticed that my portions are creeping up. I still weigh all of my protein, but it is the measuring cup stuff I am struggling with.  I am going to be weighing everything I can instead of measuring.

Time Since Surgery: 2 years

B: Egg Beaters, mozzarella and bacon omelette 

S: 3 oz turkey

L: 3 oz rib eye.  2 oz delicata squash

S: protein hot chocolate

D:  2 oz Brussels sprouts, 2 oz cauliflower, tbsp bacon and poached egg

Totals: Calories 709, Carbs 19, Protein 85

Stay warm, my friends!

If there was a way- I'd gladly ship you all our snow.

Hi folks-- 

crazy busy morning. Had to get the younger into the o to fix a braces problem. Now I'm back at Sprint trying to see if I can get a replacement phone for my older son before we leave. (That's not looking good). Yesterday was crazy busy getting their term projects done-- but both are off with completed projects! Not sure what it is about Sunday's but yesterday I also felt really really icky - weak and shaky-- while out doing errands. I need to find a good purse snack to combat this-- desperation led me to a soft pretzel which killed my carb count for the day.

qotd: I have one original painting called Union. I wish I could find the artist because I love his work. I hate having pictures of people hanging. i prefer abstracts that show profile, silhouettes etc. I don't want faces looking at me from a wall. I have two other nicely framed prints.

18 months post op-- 195.1 today

m1 1 fried egg; 2.4oz ham/bologna 

m2: Greek yogurt, berries granola

m3: shrimp/crab Alfredow w/ spinach-- no pasta
