What's on your Tuesday Menu, RNYers?

YO! How we all doing today? My coordinator called out sick yesterday and I hate it when I have to do his job, too. He is so fast with all of the technical stuff, and it takes me forever! Anyway, I never got to anything on my own to-do list yesterday, and now I am starting off Tuesday feeling woefully behind. Blergh.
Accountability: Low on calories from my planned meals, but ate two Oreos when I came home. Why? Because we have oreos in the house. #noselfcontrol
QOTD: What is the junk mail situation in your house? Do you get a lot? It's been better lately, but when I first moved in with Grim I was getting 4 - 6 peices of junk mail every day that were all targeted predatory lending or other financial scams. I think they finally gave up on me and I mostly just get catalogs and invitations to open checking accounts.

Ha, I just opened a work email about a team breakfast on Friday. They are providing breakfast sandwiches, and they asked people to sign up to bring other stuff. Look at what Jerome is bringing! Do you think he knows I eat these every morning?

Good Morning JB and Menuers,
I had a post all ready to submit yesterday and then POOF it was gone. I didn't have time to retype everything so I just didn't.
Our last camping trip was the best camping trip all season. We went to Rehobeth Beach, Delaware. The weather was perfect ****il Sunday morning) and Max loved running on the sandy beach. I did take a few pictures that I will share on Friday.
Friday morning, after I put my bags in the backseat, I closed the car door on my fingers. Yes, I know that takes talent and boy, did it hurt. My fingers are a lovely shade of purplish-green and ache, but I can bend them.
Yesterday, after work, we winterized the camper. Today I have to unmake the bed and bring in the towels. I don't like to leave anything in the camper because sometimes mice get in and nest.
Accountability: okay but room for improvement
QOTD: We get a few pieces a week. It does seem like it has been less and less in the past few years.
B: reduced sugar oatmeal with Fairlife milk
S: HB egg
L: adult Lunchable - Buddig turkey, one-ounce cheese, snow peas, and four olives
D: last of the leftovers from our weekend adventure
I've been slacking on my evening walks with Max. Instead, I have been playing and running around in the yard with him. I really need to start walking again.
Have a great day!

How is Rehobeth Beach? We met friends from RB on our cruise in April and are thinking we will visit them next summer.

Rehobeth is super crowded at all times of the year. They have a major outlet chain and traffic on the main drag is horrible. There are several quaint shops and great coffee shops. The boardwalk is smaller than most but I think it is just about perfect. The next time we go to the Delaware beaches we are going to explore Bethany which is another small town on the coast.

Can't wait to see pics!
I closed the car door on my middle finger when I was 17 and I still have a slight scar across it! OUCH! Hope it feels better soon!

Rehobeth Beach? I thing when we drove up the cost last summer from Ocean City we stopped there at a great big garden/gift center with a huge gnome in the front. I bought great print there that hangs in my hallway. Are you familiar with it?
