I stuck to the food plan today. I had oatmeal with brown sugar for breakfast, a sandwich for lunch and a protein bar for snack. Tonight was the hubs choice since he goes back to Alaska tomorrow..and he chose pizza- which is less expensive than going out. We are having the pizza and some spuds delivered- cost $31 plus tip. I know we will have leftovers, which will be dinner tomorrow night too.
I will take out chicken tomorrow night for the next few night's dinners. I will cook it all on Thurs night...so the rest of the week's meals should be easy. (and no spend)
I am hoping the girls will want to take the kids to a local pumpkin patch/farm this Saturday. I always love going there in the Fall and watching the kids in the corn maze, petting zoo, picking out pumpkins, face painting, etc. I so love Fall. On Sunday I am planning to pull out all my fall decorations and decorate while watching football.
I joined the football pool at work this year...it is no cost and only pays off in bragging rights. The weekly loser gets the "golden plunger" as a trophy that must be kept on their desk all week. So far I have stayed in the 23-25 out of 30 spot. I jumped up a little this past week..and am at 21. It is free fun! Hopefully I wont get the plunger.
We are having two potlucks at work this month. One is Friday for a girl on our team that got a promotion and the other is on Halloween. I am not sure what to make for them yet. I may have to spend this week for the potluck on Friday since I wasnt planning on one...but we'll see.
The Halloween one is for the whole building, so that will have lots of fun variety and I want to make something fun...hmmmm..
Well, time to enjoy hubby time since its his last night home.
Also- today is about day 5 that I have made it with no cough, no cold, no infected digits, no headache...I dont want to tempt fate, but it is SO NICE to feel normal..and a 5 day stretch is unusual lately, but oh so welcome!!! Go health!
