Man oh man... my poor phone. Last night I was sitting on the couch and I heard it fall out of my pocket and between the sectional. I opened the recliner to find it and heard "crunnnnnnnnnch." UGH Sure enough it's dented on the back and the front is messed up. I'm thinking I'll just take it back to Verizon and try and get a new one under the insurance. That's why I pay it right? Let's just hope couch incidents are covered. lol
Breakfast - slice of leftover pizza

Fruit aisle please
I haven't had good fruit here for a while. I think I'm going to have to do a mid week produce trip. I'm finding fruit has gone soft or is pretty bruised by the end of the regular "shopping week." I'm tossing much of it. Not only does that leave me fruitless for a while but it's like tossing a big wad of cash away!
Breakfast - 1 egg, 2 soft wheat toast, 6oz strawberry yogurt
Meltdown in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.............. I told the kids we'd go out to lunch today with some birthday money I got. Went upstairs to change and saw the mess of all messes. I had a complete meltdown. Not only did we NOT go out to eat but they spent the afternoon cleaning their buns off. I held off on eating for a while myself then fell into my "if no one else cares about me why should I?" and ate a HUGE bowl of pasta and some cheese.
Lunch - whole wheat spaghetti with meat sauce, american cheese
There goes the day! Ordered out pizza and junk. Whatever.
Dinner - cheese pizza, mozz sticks and potato skin

Move over please
Around 2am J came into bed with us. I just moved on over and made room. When I got up to go to the bathroom he wiggled over to the middle. He was so cute. Like, "here mom, I'll make room for you." lol When D got up he slid him over to his side. Then around 5:30 E showed up. I just moved over again. I got up to go to the bathroom again and had her wiggle over to the middle. lol
I got up before everyone and watched a show I DVR'd yesterday. Then did some dishes and checked things online. Once the kids started to trickle down I made them chocolate chip muffins, which I did not eat, and got them some milk to go with it.
Breakfast - 2 eggs, 2 slice light soft wheat bread, 1 apple
Lunch - whole wheat pasta with meat and mushroom sauce, salad and kraft free italian
Dinner - 2 soft tacos
Workout - 35 mins elliptical (381 cals)
Snack - 2 more soft tacos

Look at what you've done!
Hahahaha! D tried to bend up J's training wheels today. I started him riding off balanced and then let go. He went about 4 rotations before tipping to the training wheels. He got off and pointed to his bike saying "Look at what you've done!" So D said are you angry or happy? J replied "Angry!" and tipped his bike over. It was so hilarious. D bent them back a little but not all the way. I'm sure he'll be on a 2 wheeler at or before 4 like E was. oy!
Today was day 1 of Michelle's birthday week. I've decided my birthday has almost always sucked. It was usually during family vacations. I'd get school clothes for gifts. My dad always forgets me. It's just not a big group of happy memories for me. So this year is the big 3-0. I'M making it big for me. Ok, not big - but hopefully "not sucky" is big enough. ;o)
We did a cookout with a joint cake for me, SIL and SIL's fiance tonight. I ate terrible but skipped out on cake. I let myself be talked into burgers and that was dangerous once I thought of all the calories they were packing! Oh and MIL got cheese dogs because she knows I love them. DOH! I'm glad I brought salad!
Breakfast - bagel with 1/3 less fat philly
Snack - BBQ fritos
Lunch - Subway: 3" of a BLT on wheat and roasted chicken noodle and veggie soup
Dinner - 2 cheese dogs, 1.5 burger, salad
Total Calories: 1784
My legs are still crazy sore from weeding Saturday morning. I basically bent in half to pick them. So I stretched everything. I meet mom at the gym tomorrow. I hope to be ok on the elliptical. It not I may need to hop on the bike for a night.

Sunday Sunday Sundaaaaaaay
Track day again but this time I'm not working!! Yesterday I had to install some vinyl lettering for a customer so it wasn't a "real" day off. It is day 2 of Fun Ford Weekend and D is already there with his mom and "C2." Not our son but a friend. C2 was runner up yesterday and we're hoping to improve on that today... um or his mom. A win and r/u would be awesome.
Anyway, I'm making milk chocolate chip cookies for today and I've set aside about 1 tray to get walnuts. I'm not a fan but I figured I'd spruce them up a bit. :o) I hope to stay on track with eating. I couldn't get online yesterday so it killed me not knowing if those donuts killed me. Thankfully they didn't. That was pure luck.
Snack - 1/2 cookie hot out of the oven
Breakfast - 1/4 of an apple
Lunch - burger and onion rings
Snack - lemonade, small piece of steak tip and fritos
Dinner - pasta with meat sauce
Total Calories: 1477
LOTS of walking today. Quick walking at that. C2 went to the finals again with a runner up position! He was parked WAY down at top end. lol Back and forth, back and forth. I knew walking was better for me so I declined the many rides I was offered.

Rude Awakening
I woke up at 6 totally ready to be up but wanted to sleep more. I went back to sleep and didn't wake up til 9! I was glad to be awake though. I had 3 nightmares in that time and I had a wicked headache from it.
Breakfast - a waffle with PB, peach
Did some weeding. I hate wedding. Got it all into a barrel though and it's mostly done. Still have to rake the mulch and get all the twigs up. I hate the yard being so ugly.
Snack - 6oz light yogurt and small banana
Don't even ask about lunch. I made a big crock of sauce. I couldn't wait to make pasta and had a couple bowls of just sauce then had 2 rolls with it. lol It's been a long time since I made sauce.
Lunch - ground beef and mushrooms with crushed tomatoes and 2 light wheat rolls

Backwards Scale
This has been a long time coming. After a lucky streak of maintaining with my poor choices I have finally seen a gain. I'm going to try something different for my food log today and see if I can't turn this around immediately. I know breakfast looks boring since it's often the same but I enjoy it and I know it'll fill me up.
Breakfast - 2 eggs, 1 slice whole wheat toast and a peach
I just got off the phone with the interviewer for that job. No dice. The shift they are hiring for is 12:30-4:30. The after school childcare is about $50/kid. With 3 school aged kids that's $150 plus childcare for J. It'd cost me money to work. That seems just a bit counter productive. She did put me down for a call back should a 5 or 6 pm start come up again. Here's to hoping. For now it's back to the job hunt.
Snack - berry smoothie
Lunch - chicken, rice and carrots dish made with broth, peas
Snack - Zone Perfect Bar
Dinner - grilled chicken salad, roasted rotini soup
Snack - onion rings
