So why do i sit here.......

So why do i sit here
eating these crackers
when I know the calories
make me go quakers
I know that the wheat
makes me feel fatter
makes tummy puffy
and never grow flatter.
I eat and I snack,
I chomp and I chew
and all the good foods
I swear, I eschew.
So why do I do this
when its clearly so bad?
the more that I think
the more i get mad.

NutriBullet!

Thursday, April 25, 2013

Finally decided to invest. Works like a dream if you follow the directions. I will give it some time to see if the liquified fruits and veggies works for me -- i love veggies but hate fruits and this is an effort to balance my diet a little.

This thing can WHIZ.

  

So far, so good

Saturday, February 16, 2013

So even though I ate junk, I stayed below my calorie and carb limit. Trying hard to think of stuff like frozen greek yogurt as alternatives to hardcore junk foods. So far, so good. I could have eaten the whole container, instead of soemthere between a quarter and a half of the container. No matter, it was a long hard day and another will follow tomorrow. Anywhere in the ballpark will work, kthankx.

Settled on red beans and rice and jambalaya for the service. He loved New Orleans. I am terribly sorry he never made it back.

Another death.......

Friday, February 15, 2013

2013 has been very stressful. I don't think i know anyone that hasn't had a death either in their family or close circule of friends in 2013. Tomorrow is the service for my dear friend and religous advisor, my "cousin from a different oven". He has been ill a long time now (in his 40s) but the death itself was very quick very quiet, and completely unexpected.

The family has made the decision to have a small, quiet 'circle' now and a memorial in a couple of months. If you're pagan, you recognize 'circle'; if not, think "small quiet tight group of family and friends not to exceed 15". heh.

I'm contemplating what our contriubiton to the pot luck should be. My initial thought was lasagna --- you make it in big pans, suitable for large groups. Then I remembered that a couple of people have wheat intolerance. Now I'm thinking maybe broccoli and chicken rice casserole.

It'll all work out. And you all will forgive me if my good intentions go the way of the do=do bird for one day, because the extra calories will soothe my mind if not my hips, for this one day.

Temporarily, my Coffee plan is derailed

Sunday, February 10, 2013

I spent this week detoxing from coffee. I felt like I was coming off heroin (and I have a child that was addicted to heroin, so we know what it is like). Did real well. I think I finally shook it.

THEN I GOT SICK. Like S*I*C*K. You guessed it. Coffee was the only thaing that would 1) cut the crud enough that I could swallow and 2) stay down. Not even water would stay down.

The whole thing made me do lots of thinking about the devil and his temptations while I was hallucinating from the fever. Us pagans don't usually think about the dvil. This week, I did.

Okay, business as usual. Cosmic sign it is not time to cut coffee out completely. YET.
