Announcement!

Some people do giveaways to get more traffic... I do them to cheer myself up.

So get your game face on!

I will be giving away ONE over the top Easter box. It will be filled with goodies. It will arrive BEFORE Easter (just in case the bunny forgets you).

Enter your name in the comments (of this post please).

I will be drawing for the box on Monday night (7 PM EST).

Breakfast Of Champions

For Those Of You Who Have Been Dying For Some Face Time

Alive And Kicking

I can't promise that I am completely over this... it has not been a linear progression thus far... but I think things are getting better.

Here are some things to ponder...

#1 How much weight do you think I lost?

1.5 pounds! WTF?! (we all know a pound a day would have only been fair)

Of course Mr F, that lucky bastard, lost 4 pounds in 2 days.


#2 What do you think my house looks like with 2 parents down all week and 2 healthy kids?

Like it was tossed by crazed Lilliputians.

Your lucky I'm not posting pictures... they might cause your brain to explode.

You Know How I Hate To Complain...

But..

This is day FREAKING four of severe gastroenteritis.

I haven't been able to keep anything in me... not solids... not fluids.

My brain feels like it is in a vice.

My stomach is in knots.

And my rear end is in need of a plug.

Another One Bites The Dust

And another one

And another one

And another one bites the dust

This Week The Plan

I have a LOT of major stuff going on in my head these days. I've been thinking a lot about convenience and entitlement. I've been thinking about how much has changed in regard to these two things in my lifetime. I'll be writing about this or talking about it this week. The whole decision about whether or not to replace Mr F's car is falling smack in the middle of all these thoughts. I'm down with challenging the notion that we have the right to as little inconvenience in our life as possible. Mr F?... well... he's not exactly there yet.


Menu:
A lot of my meals got bumped up from last week since Kid was sick.

Monday - Salmon Noodle Casserole

Tuesday - Ginger & Scallion Shrimp w/ Noodles

Wednesday - Tomato & Meatball Soup

Thursday - Turkey & Black Bean Tacos

Friday - Pizza & Salad

Saturday - Quesadillas

Sunday - Turkey Meat Pasta w/ broccoli & cauliflower



Turns out I've got the stomach virus Kid had last week... so... I'm not making any plans until I feel better
