Good morning, everybody!
I'm going with double blanket wrapping this morning - one around my legs and one around my shoulders. Not sure if the weather has turned colder or if its just me.
I really could have used an extra day of weekend to get caught up. I did most of my Christmas shopping yesterday, but not all, and I have a few other things that I didn't get done, plus I'm behind at work. If only I could have slipped in a little extra day while everyone else was asleep last night then I could be right on track this morning.
QOTD: I still get a runny nose, but not hiccups.
Breakfast: sausage
Snack: Protein bar
Lunch: chicken
Snack: jerky
Dinner: TBD
Have a great day, all!

Have a wonderful day full of smart choices!

Hi all! Happy Monday!
I'm still in bed - it's just before 4 - and will go back to sleep. 4 am is simply not a civilized hour to be active anywhere but dreamland!
Yesterday I went to a pretty waterside seafood restaurant to fete the early December birthdays of my DIL, one of her sisters, and her mom. It was fun. I ordered a place of steamed clams mixed with steamed mussles. The clams here in the PNW are so dainty and so tiny that I'm quite sure the act of taking each one out of its shell consumes more calories than the clams actually contain. They were good but I was still hungry at the end.
I'm in the middle of third season of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. Enjoying it! Aside from being an excellently acted, interesting story, I love love love her clothing and beautiful accesories! Plus I think it's kinda cool that Tony Shaloub (who plays the main character's dad and who played the lead in Monk) shares my birthday, including the same year!
I looked for flavored Equal packets at my local QFC (a Kroger store) to no avail. I hope I find some somewhere, they sound good!
QOTD: I haven't experienced a runny nose related to eating. Hiccups are rare for me in general, and are not something I can clearly link to eating. I (thankfully) find it hard to overeat all but slider foods, cheese, and nuts. Nuts can easily hurt if I overindulge, plus they are wildly caloric. Pretty much always if I eat more than is wise, my stomach hurts.
First: mugs of tea plus one or two of coffee.
B: HB egg, tuna packet, Skinny Girl Buttermilk Ranch dressing,
L: ham, some black pepper cheese.
D: Turkey meatloaf, something green.
Have a good start to your week!
