Jury Duty and Planning

Posted lodyangel on September 4th, 2007 | Filed under General

I had Jury Duty this morning. Jury duty only lasted about 45 minutes. Today they were selecting the grand jury. I didn’t get picked. I actually wanted to, because they only get called about once a month and they are only there until noon. Now I will have to serve on actual trials! They take all day, sometimes into the evening, and I won’t know that I have to go until 3 days before hand! UGH! I am not happy. I will be on-call until after the New Year.       :( 

I went to the grocery store afterwards and bought the stuff we needed. $144 dollars and it will barely last 2 weeks. I went to Save-a-lot first and bought the bare necessities. There was a girl in line in front of me. Aproximately my height and weight. Her cart was filled with cheap junk food.  Stuff I will no longer bring into my house. I felt smug at first as I watched her put her multiple cans of ravioli’s, spaghetti-o’s, totino’s pizza’s, chips.  And then I realized I was no better then her. A few years back I bought the same way. Besides, as I said, she was buying the “cheap” food, so she probably was trying to stretch her dollar as far as possible. Someone needs to tell her you can buy healtier food. Yes it is more expensive, but the healthier stuff makes multiple meals, and fills bellies up a whole lot better than a can of generic ravioli’s. But it is not my place to judge how she eats. Hopefully, she will research for herself one day and find out there are healthier ways to eat. Besides, the corn dogs in my cart (for the kids, not me!) Aren’t exactly the healthiest thing to feed your kids!     :lol:

Well the plan for today is to CLEAN the house until about 2:00 when I will settle down for homework for an hour and then probably nap for half an hour and then back up to get kids off of bus, and to get back to more homework. Then cook Dinner, Not sure what that will be…considering Tacos for the kids. I don’t like Tacos though, so I would eat a salad…or a roast beef sandwich…Oooh That sounds good, so Roast beef it is. Then, at about 8:00, go run for 25 minutes-no walking. I am behind on my running. Thanks to the little camping trip over the weekend and my inability to bring myself to run yesterday. I just gotta get back in the groove of things.

    I definitely spend a lot more money on food now, but you’re right, I would eat a lot more because raviolis really don’t give you a good full feeling. You are doing awesome with you running! 25 minutes?! Good God, you could run a 5k! Keep it up :)

    It’s funny, I’ve found that when I am behind someone in the grocery line, I watch what they buy, and sadly, I do feel a little smug. But, it really does amaze me some of the junk people eat. Good for you for realizing healthy is the way to go!
