I knew this wasn’t going to be a good week
I knew it on Saturday when I was trying to make a grocery list. See, I plan out my whole menu for the entire week. I know what I’m going to eat for breakfast, lunch, dinner every day. I know the amount of calories of each and that way I can plan snacks accordingly. I knew it wasn’t going to be a good week when I just couldn’t find anything to cook. I half-heartedly found things that I didn’t really want to make, but they sort of looked good on paper (Monday’s dinner looked good on paper but was horrible for real). I knew it wouldn’t be good. And it hasn’t been. My Aunt Flo is partly to blame. I hate her… she makes me hormonal, moody (I’ve been feeling on the verge of tears for the past 3 days and that is NOT like me) hungry and so freaking tired. Besides her, I’m just blah. I think the house thing has me under more stress than I realize.
So yesterday was not a good day. We ended up going out to eat for dinner because hubby had to go to the bank and it’s WAY on the other side of Orlando from us and I was laying in bed in my pajama’s when he got home from work. He knew I was in no mood to cook so he took me out. Blah… This morning, he’s sick so I had to take both kids to school so I stopped at Chick-fil-a and got a chicken biscuit.
As a side note– why are men such BABIES when they get sick? When I get sick, I go to work, I cook, I clean, I take care of the kids… there is no time to rest. What does he do? Calls in sick to work. Really? He has a headache and a sore throat. Wahhh.. In about 2 months I’ll have my annual sore throat that persists from around Christmas to sometime in March.
I’m going to try to keep exercising this week if only to keep that on track because I already know my eating won’t be. If the weather clears up, I’ll go running tonight around the lake after I take my son to church. The weather has been PERFECT for running outdoors here lately and I love it.
Keep on keeping on, Sisterchicks.

My husband is worse than my kids when he is sick. He takes his temperature constantly and gives me the full report. Sometimes even gives me nasty details of whatever ails him while I am eating. It is insane.
Yeah. I am so over being hormonal. I don’t think rationally and it could be a problem if I would act on any decisions that I make during that time! I get like that about dinner sometimes and it is so frustrating when you are dieting to not enjoy every bite that you allow yourself. And sometimes nothing sounds good.

you’re lucky; i wish i had a place to run outdoors. i have places, but i don’t know what it is. i have a stigma about running outside.
i’m sending you positive vibes + so you can get through your baby’s illness.

My guy gets sick and it’s “the time I was sick this” and “the time I was sick that” Every God blessed time for each and ever sniffle and sneeze until a new one rolls around. I swear if you didn’t have any more sense you’d expect it to be right there on the calendar, specially noted like Christmas and Thanksgiving. “His Flu Day”… “Daylight Savings Time Ends”…”His Cold Day”
men men men men manly men Whoo hoo-hoo Hoo- Hoo hoo hoo!
