NOJOMO DAY 2
Hi everyone,
I really love the colors of the above icon but it’s so darn big. I’ve been trying to restyle my diary but it’s been so long since I last did it that I can’t remember the site I used. I can’t even upload a new pic because every time I choose one it says it’s too big *sigh*.
Well here it is day #2 and I’m already starting to panic about what to write! I didn’t like the NoJoMo diary suggestion for today. Guess I better gather up some surveys for days like this.
My poor little Makayla has been home sick with me the last 2 days. She has tonsillitis and she has been miserable. And cranky! But in spite of her crankiness, I love every minute with her. For the last 3 nights she has fallen asleep on my lap while I was in the recliner. I just sat there stroking her cheeks and playing with her curls. It really saddens to think of the day when she’ll be too big to do that. Although I’ll probably still be trying get her to do it when she’s 16 LOL.
We had Hamburger Helper for dinner tonite. We used ground chicken instead of beef. Pretty good meal but not something I want to do often. It’s a very heavy meal and even though I stayed within my calorie range, I still feel so bloated. I don’t eat red meat so it’s been chicken, chicken and more chicken! We probably have boneless skinless chicken breasts 6 out of 7 nights a week. I finally did get some fish at the store yesterday and I’m looking forward to that for dinner tomorrow.
My family is really teasing me about my birthday presents. They swear they are the best presents ever! Apparently Aimee has gotten me a very special present guaranteed to make me cry. I can’t wait! I can’t imagine what it is but I bet it is something to do with the kids, maybe a special picture of them or something. Nothing could get to me more than that.
I’d forgotten that one of the benefits of NoJoMo is that so many people write. The downfall is that it’s hard to keep up.
Okay, that’s all I’ve got.
I’ll try to have a more interesting day tomorrow

Laughing about the fact that you just want to get on with menopause. LOL! I am 52 years old and my period finally stopped recently ~ in July. Still no hot flashes or other troublesome symptoms. Girlfriend, you may have two more years to go. Wink.

It’s so hard when they don’t feel well. Asher had his tonsils out when he was less than two. Lately he’s been asking if they’re going to grow back. He’s not even 5 and he’s had 3 surgeries…doesn’t do too well with doctors and needles….

Suggestions for NoMoJo ?? That would be wonderful. I will have to check that out. Try some veggie entrees. Beans with a corn tortilla instead of a flour one. Put cooking spray in a skillet. Just warm it on both sides. Put some beans on it. A little low fat cheese, lettuce, tomato, and you’ve got a taco. Some brown rice mixed with salsa and you have dinner. It’s one of my favs. Love you sweetie!

Part of that bloated feeling may have come from the sodium content of the seasoning packet in the HH. I love many of the HH meals, but invariably I end up with that same bloated feeling and I’ve decided that’s the culprit. Hope Makayla is feeling better today!
