Good Morning Queen JB and Menuers,
So sorry the Vid ha**** your home. Hopefully you contacted the doctor to get the meds so it does not become serious. I hear on the new this new strain is worse than the last 2. Well wishes for you and Grim. I found when I had it as long as I was moving, I felt much better than when I was just sitting there. Does he still have his taste and smell? That was the worst part for me.
No plans for the weekend. Just Mom duty. I hope to motivate and get on the elliptical this weekend. I still am dealing with the pinched nerve in my shoulder so we will see what happens. Next week our church does a week of fasting. I am going to remove the creamer from my coffee and only drink protein shakes. After sundown my plan is 4 oz of dense protein and a cup of vegies. Wish me luck. No snacks. Hoping this gets me back on track.
QOTD: My birth certificate says I am Christine. As a kid I had an uncle that called me Cricket. In grade school they called me Chris. In Jr high when 3's company was popular they started calling me Chrissy. When I started here 27 years ago, I got the nickname Teenie (Christeenie Weenie Bobeenie) But there was a lady I was playing 3 card poker with, in a casino that kept calling me Cupcake. I tried to get the family to use that, but it never stuck. One young cousin still calls me Cupcake and I love it. I continue to send cards to her and sign them Cupcake.
Accountability: Grazing was how I did dinner last night.
Accountability: I went to Aldi hungry and bought every healthy snack they had and proceeded to eat them all.

Then there are these. They taste like Strawberry shake from Mcdonalds.

It's not fair that you get so many M&M flavors. You know after that espresso flavor fiasco with mail-in from Walmart, I wasn't able to find it anywhere?

Fun fact--Grim has never had a sense of smell. He literally can't ever smell anything unless it is super strong. The second time I came to his house we walked in and it smelled like something died. I thought he might have bodies in the basement :0 But apparently there was just something rotting in the garbage disposal that he couldn't smell.
I assume he is lacking normal taste, too, which is why he is so damn picky and mostly concerned about texture, but I can't prove it.
Do you think that not liking Queen is related to these issues?
