QOTD- Mold, mildew, dust mites and minor to cats. But I'll never get rid of my cats. But I was tested years ago, so who knows now.
Rainy and windy and possible thunder and hail coming this way.
I finished the pantry, and moved most everything into it. It's not ideal but it gives me more space. It's harder to add water to the espresso machine, but it will work. My kitchen is really small and doesn't have enough cabinet space. So I was using the Kallax shelf from Ikea in the dining room to store the excess, that doesn't fit in the cabinets. There really isn't any way to enlarge the kitchen without spending a ton of money so it's not happening. I'm not sure how the previous owners with 4 kids survived with this kitchen and tiny dining room, but they lived here for 50 years.
I need to get to work.
Have a great day everyone!

Many years ago I kept breaking out in hives and had allergy testing, I am allergic to sulphur.. They used to spray it on salad bars to preserve the food. I ate a lot of salads and would break out. I quit the salad bars. Also in dried fruit and red wine.

Good morning, everybody!
Florida pulled it out last night, so I won $166.50 in my brackets. This is only the second time that I have ever won. I have been doing brackets most years since 1981, so I am probably a bit behind even with those two winnings. I used to be in a work pool that had hundreds of entrants, so you had to pick a big upset to have any reasonable chance of competing. At the beginning of March Madness, I said to myself "one thing for certain, it will be warm spring weather by April 7th."
Um, no.
Tuesday is a work from home day. Not too much planned today except for CrossFit and working. I have a number of calls that are interspersed throughout the day. Saturday, I am going to a clinic to learn how to change the tires on my bike, so I need to get some tubes and air (I think it comes compressed in cans?). But the bike shop is closed on Tuesdays, so I can't do that today.
QOTD: I might be allergic to scallops, so I don't eat them and don't get iodine based tests at the hospital.
Breakfast: Bagel
Lunch: Chicken
Dinner: Kielbasa and Pierogies
Have a great day, all!

Good mornin y'all.
missed yesterday, had an appointment with my surgeon from my surgeries. He was ok. He suggested in the future I might consider a revision but not anytime soon, which I totally agree with. I'm no where near ready for that! I felt like a failure though. My weight is bad and it's time to put my big girl panties on and get on with it. I'm to record/journal everything I eat for 3 months and he's going to call me and I'll be sending in the journal for him to review.
We had 4 or more inches of snow Saturday. Before that we had one 2 inches of rain Thursday and into Friday. This next Saturday we'll be in the 90's. Gotta love spring!
We are getting the toilet in the garage bathroom replaced today. Oh fun! The dogs will be so much fun lol
QOTD: I am allergic to morphine. I'm allergic to cashews but if I eat them in small amounts I can handle it. I'm sensitive to eggs but I also can eat them with just minor side effects.
B: 1 slice 80 calorie bread, 1 egg, 1 turkey sausage patty, 1 tbs of Gorgonzola, 3 tbs of creamer with my coffee
I'll update my other meals later!
Good Tuesday Morning everyone. I think my allergies are already acting up by yesterday afternoon my throat was scratchy, and my nose was stuffy which are both a sign for me that there is stuff in the air. I've seen early flowers blooming and the little buds on the trees are getting bigger. Plus, the dog has been scratching like crazy and shedding. They don't call them German Shedders for nothing. LOL Popped some allergy meds and I'm on my second cup of coffee. Only positive about the allergy flare up is I end up with zero appetite.
QOTD: Speaking of allergies how many of you here are allergic to something? You are all going to laugh, but I am literally allergic to everything I deal with at home. The dog, cat, horse, grass, hay, pollen of all sorts of plants. Thankfully the allergies are all environmental/animals and zero food ones.
B: 2 coffees
L: I have some beef jerky with me if I feel hungry
D: Maybe some soup
Holding off on the treadmill until tonight.
Have a wonderful everyone!!!!

Wouldn't it be nice to know what's being said when we get mani/pedis?

Good Evening! My day was busy but payroll went out! I'm glad I worked a bit this weekend because if I hadn't we wouldn't have had time to deal with some extra issues today. Tomorrow it's back to some interviews/reference checks.
QOTD: I want both, is that too much to ask?! Haha
I'm not posting my menu today but hope to be able to post earlier tomorrow.
