Good Morning Botters:

Happy Hump Day!  I will be out on the jobsite today so I will not be checking my email until later in the afternoon.  My eats for today are:

Breakfast:  Coffee & Miralax

2nd Breakfast:  Oatmeal

Snack:  Fiber One bar

Lunch:  Quest Protein Bar

Snack:  1/2 Granola Bar

Dinner:  Lean Pocket

Snack:  Deep Chocolate Vitatop

Exercise:  Bike

Have a great day, stay warm and take those vits and fluids.

We had a really hard frost last night. Everything was beautiful this morning though and we had a beautiful sunrise. I think that's the first time I've seen it since sometime last week.

I decided to fill up the brid feeder this morning that's on the back deck. I got to see the beautiful frost covered deck up close and personal. WHAM!!! I am not graceful on ice. Of course my bad knee took the brunt of the impact. Arthritis tylenol, a heating pad and an ice pack are my friends. I hobbled into work and announced that I won't be leaving my cubicle until it's time to go home.

The plan for today is looking like:

Commute: coffee

Breakfast:  Sausage Mcmuffin

snack:  Grapes

Lunch:  Chicken vegetable soup

snack:  Cheese & crackers

Dinner: Fend For Yourself night....I'm thinking cereal w/ fake milk

Not feeling the workout today. Probably opt for a soak in a hot tub of epsom salt.

If you soak in the tub - please ice the knee really well after. Heat and inflammation and inflammation after heat therapy can really lock you knee (I 've done that)

Ouch!  Take it easy!  As if you even have a choice now, huh?  I'm sorry!  : (

So sorry for the fall but I want to know while you were laying there did you look to see if anyone saw you fall? That was my second reaction after I starting breathing again.  Did that about 3 years ago on my work deck.  Since then, I do not go into wor****il my boss calls me to say he has de-iced the deck.  I hope your knee gets to feeling better soon.

No one saw me. I watched the neighbors house for a few minutes and also the entrance to the park....lol. Can't have any witnesses.

Afternoon. Today is going by fast.  I have a bunch of stuff to do before next week! Busy busy!

my eats: 1 scrambled egg with some cheese, 2 1/2 crescent rolls ( we bought a big box at costco and thank goodness that was the last tube!), coffee

s and maybe lunch: 16 oz shake with 8oz milk

l?: salad with grilled chicken

s: 1/2 apple with chunky pb and string cheese

d: spaghetti 

working on my water, and going to take my vitamins, have a great day!

Good afternoon BOTTs.

Working a half day today and tomorrow so that I can take my daughter to her therapy sessions.  Today is proving to be a rough day for her and emotions are high.  One hour at a time....or even one minute at a time.  I am hoping she will feel better after her session today at 2:30.

Breakfast:  chocolate fiber bar

Lunch:  small frozen bean burrito (ick)

Snack:  banana

This is as far as my mind has gotten today...I am hoping there is fish in the freezer.  Boy...these days are trying in more ways than one.

Have a peaceful evening, all.

Gaby

I hope everything goes well for you and Heather today.  Thinking of you.
