Friday, Feb. 15

grownerdean.jpg  Well, I was going to write what I’d had yesterday…so, if I can remember…..

Um, Breakfast: 2 bananas

Lunch: Tilapia, Spinach/Brown Rice Casserole

Afternoon/Evening Rampage: leftover mini-ham and cheese sandwiches, that pink icing + another cupcake (not worth it) homemade mini-rolls with butter (worth it!)

And then I didn’t eat supper.

I weighed today and my weight was the same - 207.6 as last week. I was a little disappointed but glad that it didn’t go up! And now I’m more determined to watch it closer this week, MEASURE and count the calories ( why am I soooooo lazy when it comes to this???)

What I’ve had today:

Breakfast: 1 banana

Lunch: PB sandwich (2 whole wheat bread, 2 T. natural peanut butter) 1 Pacific Rose apple (tremendous!!! sweet, fresh, crisp, not too starchy tasting) I will def. buy them again.

Dinner: 2 slices Pogo’s Pizza - ok, not sure on the calories, it was thin crust, but a pretty large pizza, um……maybe safe to guess 350 a slice? Probably not even that much but better to play it safe.

And now it’s 8:15, I’m hungry….thinking of making popcorn to have while hubby and I watch Monk…..I should probably make some vegetables though. I have some zucchini in the fridge……. yes, I’ll report. :-)

In other news……I’ve been thinking about doing some writing again. Something happened to me today - I cried just a little and then it came to me how I could use it in a story….it could play out really good….but I don’t know if it would be believable in the genre I’ve chosen to write in….sigh….. after getting reviews that say how I’ve kept everyone in character I’d hate to write something that strays from that. Personally, I think if a person chooses to write fanfics, they need to try to keep the characters as true to the original persona as they possibly can. After all, the way they were originally is what drew their fans in the first place, right? …….sigh….well, I WISH I had the TIME to just sit and write….probably won’t happen. Usually, if the bug bites me, I have to just carry a notebook and pen around and write when I get a few minutes - I remember two years ago, on our anniversary, it was late at night and I could not get to sleep. Robert was asleep…I got up and got my notebook and sat in the light coming from the bathroom door and wrote some of the best stuff I’ve come up with yet - I gave it the title “A Christmas to Remember.” That was in the summer of 2006 - I thought I might upload it that Christmas, but I still haven’t published it, and it’s nowhere near finished either! And some of the stuff I had scratched out on the odd stray piece of copy paper got tea spilled on it…and it was some good stuff!!! I wish I could remember it all but I’ve got to add what I can remember to my notes…maybe I can work it in to ” A Christmas…” somewhere.
