Chicken Chow Yuck

I started my hell-thy eating yesterday and let me tell you---> I gagged at every meal. I want to make this lifestyle change and I wanted to start B4 the New Year (for reasons I'm not sure of) but yesterday was Day 1 and not good. I started the day with eggs and sausage. You'd think that wouldn't be so bad but the eggs were really "egg-y" tasting and I even checked the expiration date on them and they weren't even close to bad so huh?? I poured the hot sauce on and swallowed without chewing.

Then for lunch I am having salads (this time was lettuce & spinach with black olives,Western dressing) and I baked up some grilled lemon pepper fish and I couldn't take a second bite, I was gagging so bad! It was awful. Checked the date. It was fine. Tasted very "fishy" and the texture was blech. So I'm starting to think I might be turning the corner again into vegetarian-land. Beef-grosses me out to just cook, let alone eat. Pork-it's ok, I guess. Fish-makes me gag. Chicken-is the only thing I can stomach right now...but if I thought hard enough about the raising of poultry, I couldn't eat it either. So I'm thinking of returning the entire package of salmon I bought for...beans...

Then for dinner I made chicken chow mein out of a can, which I've never had and never will again. It was SO nasty. The feeling of the sprouts in my mouth made me gag and the chicken & gravy looked like wet cat food. I ended up eating plain white rice with some butter and a watermelon candy cane. I guess I'm gonna have to think harder about buying things I like and that taste good too because I weigh as much now as I did when I was 9 MONTHS PREGNANT!! I have to do something...just look at those fat rolls.

It Comes From Within

So I went to the dentist AGAIN today and read a magazine in the waiting room. There was an article about a couple who had grown apart over the years and didn't know how it happened. The woman was repeatedly telling her husband that she felt unimportant . She explained how she never did anything for herself and hadn't done some things that she enjoyed doing since before her and her husband were married. She asked her kids what mommy did the most and they said, "the laundry." (not exactly a legacy!) Then the woman went on to explain how she blamed her husband for her unhappiness. The expert gave a detailed response, but the one thing she said that really stood out to me was how the woman was unhappy because the woman was unhappy ... it really didn't have anything to do with him. She no longer did the things she had liked to do. What did she expect?! When her and her husband were dating she was spontaneous and exciting and the two of them explored things together. No...

This Can't Be Happening!

Will is already old enough to play tee ball!! OH MY WORD!! I remember "walkin' the mile" while in labor, secretly wishing that it was over and done with and my child was already walking and talking and no late nights and loss of sleep would be suffered. I regret that now b/c it happened. He's walking: check. He's talking: check. He's gonna be 5 in less than 2 months: check. Just signed him up for tee ball: double check. This just can't be happening. The time went too fast. I'm not ready to give him up for school either. That's like 6 whole hours in the day that he will be somewhere else, like not with me, like: uncheck! I don't likey. I supposed I could homeschool him??....but let's not fool anyone here...I love my son but I don't want to be the sole person responsible for his smarts and knowledge and stuff like that. I only have an associates degree in general studies...C'MON PEOPLE! I am also realizing that with Will being gone 6 ...

Thankful to NOT be in the Army! (part 1)

I haven't blogged in 4EVER b/c someone has been sick in this house for the last 10 days and right now, it's me. Joy. Anywho, Emily wants me to write 100 things about her but I can't think that hard this morning...although I will do 1. She farts ALL THE TIME! and 2. She really is SUPER DUPER funny! I'll do the rest later. So it's the most wonderful time of the year and I've already done 80% of my shopping throughout the year so, I'm totally ahead of the game and liking it. People are scrambling around trying to find what they're looking for or trying to decide WHAT they're looking for while I am smuggly enjoying browzin! I am always left with the kids stocking stuffers. I try to keep those gifts as random as possible (more fun that way; for me, not necessarily for them). And this time of year always reminds me of my experience in the Army... I remember the BEST christmas-time I ever had...I was in the Army and was desperately trying to get out. I knew...
