What's on your Monday Menu?

Hello Monday - we meet again. I had a long weekend of prepping and teaching. I need to spend time today unloading and cleaning and prepping for the next one on Wednesday. Other than that, I think I will make a low key day and stay inside because we are experiencing intense rain and wind storms today. I heard that if today's rain totals were snow it would translate to 2.5 feet! With Grim unable to shovel, I am thrilled that it's not snow. Phew, I feel like we dodged a bullet there. In fact I taught a Christmas class yesterday while it was 65 degrees, which is literally summer weather in Boston. Weird.

QOTD: What song would be played on a loop in your personal hell? I think the Macarena would do it for me.

Ummm, oops! I just made myself my protein coffee out of routine, forgetting that I was supposed to fast until 9am. Eff it -- I'm having it, because dumping out yummy coffee is against my religion.

• Protein coffee
• Egg Bites
• Chicken
• Veggie Burger

Mornin y'all!

I have an appointment with my peer support match so I am looking forward to that. It's nice to be able to chat with someone that has had a somewhat similar experience with mental health issues.

We do have the kids after school today. This is their last week before winter break. How is that even here already? 2 weeks until Christmas. Eeek! I have all of my shopping done. I just need to get some cash for my brothers bday and two 5's for his and my SIL's gift. I'm telling ya...two birthdays in December BEFORE Christmas is a killer for the budget. I've got to make stuff but it's rather simple things. Rachel likes chokers and Riley wanted some necklaces. I made Randall a fidget type thing to put on his BP. Since he is a boy he doesn't like to wear much plus he's just 8. sleepovers have already been asked for lol

i've got to call the hospital this morning to see when my myelogram results will be ready. I just need to pick up a few copies in case I have to go to Lubbock and for my records. Their patient portal is still down after the ransomware attack.

QOTD: the jaurdiance jingle.

B: eggs, coffee x 2 and unfortunately a piece of fudge

L: ????

D: probably a PP shake

Pics is the cube/fidget things. It has a clear quartz sphere but it's to dark to really tell.

November and December are busy birthday months for my family.

Good morning and happy Monday! It's been a Monday already! The coffeemaker in my room wouldn't make the coffee..it got hot and made all the noises but no coffee was provided. The elliptical wouldn't turn on the tv and so I switched to the bike but the foot pedal strap was all twisted and I had to take it all off and put it together! Uncaffinated! And then I don't hit exercise on my fitbit so I don't get credit for a workout this morning boo. But I found some black tea in the room and I did get the bike sorted out and I did my workout, even if Fitbit doesn't care so everything is headed in the right direction.

qotd - probably Christmas carols when it's not the correct time. My current earworm is "No way" from Six and I don't mind.

menu today

Black tea but I will get coffee too

pb toast with berries

lunch and dinner tbd depending on meetings and schedules.

have a great day

I find that Fitbit can sometimes be callous and uncaring.

I hope the rest of your day is better.

I would have called all of that a sign to quit the day and start over tomorrow! You are a trooper!

Makes me want to pack instant coffee now...lobby coffee isn't even an option that early! Hopefully the rest of the day goes smoothly.

Hope things turn around for you today. You deserve better tell the coffee pot I said so.

If I were there I would have killed somebody this morning, you are very patient.
