Daily Menu - 10/30

[coolranchdorito]

Good morning! Almost halfway. I ended up working for about 11 hours yesterday without a break (had been hoping to pop out around lunch but didn't get a chance) but the day actually went quickly and got through a lot of stuff. Hopefully today is productive but not quite as long! I'm home today and will be in the office tomorrow now (originally it was going to be the opposite) so need to figure out what to wear to work! Sounds like most people are dressing up. I may just recycle my dirndl from Oktoberfest- not super original but at least can get more use out of it! My friend is borrowing my kangaroo onesie to wear to school (she's a teacher) and I've worn that at least 2 out of the last 3 years to work anyway. My costumes have really dropped off over the years! Since I didn't go to any Halloween parties this past weekend I didn't bother getting anything new. 

Not much happening today. More warm weather (getting up to 76) so will try to get outside for a walk or 2 later on. No plans tonight.

A: 40 min cardio HIIT, 10 min chest and back, 10 min core

B: grits with scrambled egg whites and cheese
S: blueberries
L: leftover Thai peanut noodles
S: cottage cheese
D: butternut squash orzo

Hope everyone has a great day!

Happy Hump Day;

Another very warm and windy day! Rain predicted tomorrow, which we desperately need. We normally do not get any Trick or Treaters since we live on a Private Road with no Sidewalks. So the weather won't be effecting that for us.

Going to visit my Mom today, stopping at the Dollar Store first. I bought her a Fairy Godmother Costume to wear tomorrow since the Residents are dressing up. They do such a fantastic job where she lives with acknowledging holidays and planning activities. I also need to stop at the Jewelers to pick up my Wedding rings. I had them resized and cleaned.

Treadmill workout soon, here is my plan:

B = Coffee with SF Creamer
2 Soft Boiled Eggs

L = 1/2 Turkey Sandwich on Wheat with light mayo (I'm bringing this to my Mom's)
Side of Veggie Straws

S = Apple

D = LO Sausage Pumpkin Kale Rigatoni, adding extra Kale and Pumpkin puree 

Have a good day ladies!

Good morning! Yesterday after work I prepped dinner but then waited for my sister and her friend to stop by to see the Halloween decorations before we sat down to eat. I watched some new MixxedFit choreo and danced along. Today I am WFH and have several meetings, plus a few phone calls I need to make to take care of non-work things. My plan is to go to the gym on the early side right after work because I totally wanted to go the past 2 days, and didn't. I know the guys are working on some of our last-minute outdoor stuff and they get all the animatronics out to the garage today so that tomorrow they can put them in the yard display. Not sure yet what the dinner plan will be, I think both boys will be at work for the evening. I feel like I've had a lot on my mind lately and am making To-Do list for at home so I can hopefully start checking some things off. I don't like feeling stressed! I may stop in to early vote on the way to the gym but Brandon registered to vote so I need to see when he wants to vote. If he'd like to go on Election day, I will plan to go with him.

Tomorrow I'll be at the office & will enjoy the Halloween festivities there. We always have a lot of friends stop over during trick-or-treat so it's a super busy day!

Hope you all have a great hump day.

B: protein shake w/ 1/4 banana
L: chicken quesadilla on low carb tortilla
D: TBD for now
Exercise: treadmill & weights

Thanks for the catch Kristen

Carol talked to Margie's doctor. She is stable and he wants to set her up with the palliative team for home care. They just need to get it set up before she goes home, not after so this doesn't happen again. Otherwise, it was a quiet night. Fed the ferals, walked Lily, took her for her monthly check up (no lumps!), went to WW and finally got to work. Tom is about as ready as is possible except for fluky stuff that pops up.

S - Usual coffee
B/L - Cheesy spinach scramble with 647 multigrain toast
D - Four course dinner at an upscale Italian place. It will be about 35 people.
E - Walking and stretching
