What's on your Monday Menu, RNYers?

...or because it's a 3 day weekend! Woot! I'm up, though... whatever...

What are you all up to today? Grim and I are getting on the road early and heading up to NH. We are starting the day at a lumber yard that specializes in exotic wood scraps, and then going to Portsmouth to do some Christmas shopping in all the adorable shops.

Accountability: I am officially back into ketosis! It took a week to kick the sugar and carb demon, but last night I actually made 4 giant calzones out of pizza dough, and didn't have a bite. I made myself a chaffle and used that as a base for my keto pizza. I was completely satisfied and happy.

QOTD: Happy Veterans' Day! Who are the vets in your life? Grim's brother is a big deal in the Navy--Rear Admiral, currently commanding the Standing NATO Maritime Group One. On my side of the family, my uncles, cousins and now my cousin's kids are West Point grads. Some have stayed in the Army after their service, and one of my cousins is now a professor at the Air Force Institute of Technology, after earning his PhD in nuclear science!

I am not posting a full menu today, because I just don't know much about what happens in the middle of the day... but here is what I know...

B: Coffee & Bacon

??????

D: probably another chaffle pizza...

Good morning everyone! This morning I wish I was a cat and could just crawl back into bed. Lol. At least it's only a 4 day work week for me since I'm off Friday. Yay!

QOTD: Father is army, grandfather navy, uncle Air Force and another uncle navy.

B: premier shake

B2: coffee w/Splenda

L: turkey and cheese roll up

D: salmon and broccoli

Good Morning! No three-day weekend here but I'm prepping for vacation coming up so it's all good. On Friday they were seating for a murder trial and it was expected to go through at least mid-December so the judge released me when I explained our time crunch at year-end and that I have 16 direct reports.

Accountability: Not a bad weekend.

QOTD: John's cousin and son and some friends serve or have served.

TSS: 5 years 3 months

Oh, glad you were dismissed! That seems like it would be quite the ordeal.

Yeah, didn't seem like a good case to be assigned to.

Kelly - what kind of gloves do you wear to run on cold days?

Most of my running is in the treadmill. During the 1/2 marathons I buy cheap knit ones and toss them when I get hot, same with a jacket.

Glad that you were released Kelly!

Thanks, me too.

Good morning, everybody! We have a covering of snow here in Chicago.

JB - do they still have Poco Diablo's up in Portsmouth? We used to go for margaritas and nachos when Marilyn worked there. But its been 20 years, so I know that things change. UPDATE: Googled it and its still there, but just called "Poco's" now.

Today is a work day for me, but it should be light traffic and we can wear jeans.

We saw the Midway movie yesterday and thought that it was good.

QOTD: Father-in law, cousin, and uncle are retired Marines. One of my nephews went to West Point and is retired army. Some friends retired Marines and Navy.

Breakfast: Turkey meatballs and cottage cheese

Snack: Protein bar

Lunch: Steak

Snack: Jerky

Have a great day, all!
