I've only ever ordered cheesecake from them before and I hated it.

G'morning all!

QJB - what a nice surprise Grim prepared for you. These little gestures show us that our partners are listening and know what makes us happy. I am sorry about your hand, def need to see a Dr.

Not a good day yesterday, emotionally. First I woke up that I was hungry. I am so used to have just coffee that it was weird that my stomach was grumbling, so I made scrambled eggs. Then I got a call from my mom that she had fallen again. She is 82, about 10 days ago she fell in the bathroom, nothing broken but a bad scare. My brother got her one of those alarm thingys. So the night before she gets out of bed in the middle of the night and she slips right when she gets up and she can't get up any more. Thanks to the alarm she calls my brother at 2:00 am. My brother goes there and help her up. All of this is scaring me that my mom is getting feeble and I'm not there to help out. So what do I do? I eat my emotions and I don't work out. My brother told me she is still fine and can live on her own; she has two people who go there and help her out, one at mid day and one in the evening, and my brother visits her 3-4 times a week. These are the times that I really worry about living so far away.

QOTD: weirdly I don't remember any of the books I read. I was/am a voracious reader. I was caught so many times under the covers with flash light reading. Or during summer my mom would come back from work for lunch (around 2:00 pm) and I was still in bed reading. She would get so upset that I had not set foot outside my room all day. My presents for a good report card (especially in elementary school) was to go to go to book store and get whatever book I wanted. It was always 1 classic recommended by my dad and three books of my choice, as long as we kept to that ratio I could have as many books as I wanted. I vividly remember coming back home and my dad opening the trunk of the car full of books. But if you ask me what I was reading I can't remember at all. The classics I remember but the ones I chose I don't. There were a lot of magic (almost like Harry Potter) books.

My meals yesterday:

• Scrambled eggs
• Protein puffs, epic chicken , Lily's chocolate, yasso icecream, Barebells bar
• Pretzels, Nutella
• I can't even remember all that I ate because I didn't log in
• E: skipped

Happy almost Fri-yay!

I'm sorry about your mom. I'd be a basket case. Don't beat yourself up over a little emotional eating.

Sorry about the emotional day. I hope today is better.

I can't imagine how hard that must being being so far away

Hugs. That's tough. I was in Canada when my mom was heath was getting worse very rapidly and because I was a "fresh immigrant" it was not an easy option for me to fly to see her. it was tough to deal with her passing away... ugh.

Keith's dad is 82 and ... we see him declining really fast the last the 2 years.
