I got up really early for a summer morning.  I also only had 1 cup of coffee :(  Oh well, I will make up for it tomorrow.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I ate Mexican today.  I needed a place that was not too busy and had a nice size table so that I could spread out my paperwork.  It worked out great.  Good food and a great place to get some stuff done without feeling rushed!

Lunch: (14 PP)

-1 Flauta Lunch (12 PP)

• 2 crispy Flautas, sour cream, guacamole, lettuce, cheese

-8 tortilla chips (2 PP)

-Salsa (0 PP)

This was a new meal for me.  I really enjoyed it and seeing how low the PP value is.  I will be ordering that again.  :)

 I was in town all day.  LOTS of walking today.  I earned mega activity points.  Woohoo!  I went clothes shopping, shoe shopping, walking around the hospital, and also walking around Best Buy for an hour to kill some time.  I got some new clothes, one pair of new shoes (even though I went into 4 different stores), and I even remember E and Lovey Man while at Best Buy!  Very Good day!

I got inspired at the grocery store.  I decided to make sauteed shrimp and a broccoli slaw.  I am surprised at the size of my plate and how low the PP value of that plate is.  It is also very yummy!  Again, wish I had scratch and sniff pictures for you all.

Dinner: (12 PP)

-1 serving of Sauteed Shrimp (7 PP)

-2/3 c. Pasta Roni - Parmesan Cheese  (4 PP)

-1 serving of Parmesan Asiago Broccoli Slaw (1 PP)

Look at all that food for only 12 PP

I have to share this story with you all.... I stopped by the grocery store, got items to make dinner with, and proceeded to self-checkout. As we all know those self-checkout registers are kinda crazy sometimes, so after I scanned my first item and it said "Attendant has been notified to help you". Well great gonna be one of those days.  The Attendant comes over and asks "How may I help you" I respond with"I didn't press the Help button" which apparently translated to her as "I do not speak English" because she pressed the Español button, smiled at me and walked off... WTH?!?!?!  I thought the registers were crazy!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I had a two snacks today.  I went by my favorite Starbucks and was very humbled.  The manager, Sean, whom I have not seen in MONTHS!!!  Not only remembered my name, he almost got my drink exactly right from memory.  He rocks socks!  I am going to make sure I go by and see him more often.  Thank You Sean for being Awesome!  Oh yeah I had another brownie... damn things are calling my name!

Snack: (7 PP)

-1 Quad Veni Iced Skinny Cinnamon Dolce Latte (3 PP)

-1 Cream Cheese Brownie (4 PP)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Time to so watch the Boob Tube and spend some time with my Lovey Man and E.  I was in Savannah all day so I did not get much time with my men!  Nighty Night my Peeps!

I got up this morning again to having coffee already made.  Man, I'm gonna miss being at my parents' house.  Oh well time to get up and at 'em.  I have to get Lovey Man and I packed and ready to head home.  It's not gonna be pretty leaving, especially with Scooter staying.  I hope the crying doesn't last toooo long.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I was lucky this trip.  The crying started, I gave him a few minutes to get it out and then I turned up the music. I was not trying to cover up the crying, he really likes music and it calms him.  Which worked this time as well.  Woohoo!  We were traveling so I stopped for fast food.  I know I shouldn't have but I did.  We stopped at Wendy's and I went for the single with everything.

Lunch: (22 PP)

-1 Wendy's Single with everything & cheese (15 PP)

-2/3 serving Wendy's small fries (7 PP)

-1/2 serving of apple slices (0 PP)

I really did not enjoy it as much as I thought I was going too.  I think because I am trying to do good this week, that it made me feel guilt.  Which in turn made the burger not that good.  What?!?!?!  Did I just write that... what is wrong with me?!?!?!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Scooter and I went to Wally World for a brief trip.  I need to get items for dinner and extra Resolve for the carpet.  I got reminded today that bright blue finger paint + beige carpet + 19 month old = NO FUN for MOM!!
