What's on your Wednesday Menu?
Good morning and happy Wednesday! Got a full day ahead.
I earned an A+ yesterday based on choices and calorie consumption. And an A on exercise. I so didn't wanna do it. But I finally dragged myself out of the house at 2 for one of my walks that includes a few good inclines. For the first time since injuring my ankle I got my walking mile under 15 minutes. I clocked 2.95 miles. Why oh why did I not lap around the street until I hit a nice even 3? I feel like I missed out on a real opportunity.
Today, I'm making breakfast, then gym for an hour on the machines and an hour of aqua jazzercise. Home for a shower, making lunch, and then going with Roger for another appointment regarding the Inspire Implant. These are making me crazy and I plan on being very direct with my language regarding the terrible communication and misdirecting us over and over again. Then we are stopping by a party put on by one of my book club buddies and then home to make dinner for us and our Wednesday friend and possibly his (apparently soon to be ex) girlfriend. Anyone see a theme here? I'm so desperate to get Roger qualified for the surgery that I'm living in the kitchen. I love to cook dinner for him. Breakfast and lunch, not so much. But Team McG here.
QoTD: No, I don't think so.
Menu
B: we have a little leftover gyros and feta, so scrambled eggs and that
L: TJ turkey burger and sliced tomatoes
D: Trying a new TJ recipe. I starting following an Insta account and it's all about TJ recipe hacks. Today is chicken pesto, topped with cherry tomatoes and burrata and drizzled with balsamic glaze then all baked up. Everybody else will get some pasta with it. I will have half a piece of the garlic bread.
Peace Everybody.

Aloha!!!
QJB - very glad to hear you liked Wonka. I have seen only the previews but I figured it's gotta be a good movie, I just had a good feeling about it and you confirmed it. I hope you can truly rest after this cookie order.
I woke up to a slew of texts from our family chat. DH is flying out of San Jose while the kids are flying out of San Diego. DH's Uber, reserved for 4:30 am, never showed up so he drove himself to the airport. Kids went to the wrong gate and had to hoof it to the correct gate. But all is good, everybody is on the right plane and heading towards Hawaii. Poor DH was the last on the plane!
I am ready and set. Xmas tree was found & decorated, although no tree decorations were found all over the island. Last night I even made Xmas crack, because there is no xmas without crack. Can't wait to see the kids' faces when they walk in and see their stockings hung.
QOTD: call me naive but I never snooped. I truly believed SC was bringing presents. In Italy we open presents on xmas eve. We always had a huge Xmas eve party and at midnight SC would show up with presents for all the kids. Eventually I learned that my mom would organize with all the guests to bring their presents so our SC could give it to their children. So I believed till 11-12 that he was the real deal. Once me and my buddies figured out he is not real the guessing game started as in who amongst my dad's friends was dressing up as SC every year. I have such good memories of those Xmas eve gatherings.
My meals yesterday:
- Coffee
- Barebells bar
- Small bag of jalapeño chips + 1 peppermint patty (stress eating because I couldn't find any tree decorations)
- Hb eggs, tuna, 2 almond cookies
Happy hump day!

Just for two days. He couldn't get away, while I could. So came here to prep/decorate the house for xmas. And he would have never put up with going all over the place to find the right thing. While here he is surfing non stop and going into town seems to him like a waste of time.
