Feel kinda bad about the sugar in the coffee & teas but I have a sore throat and find it helps to soothe it. Honey would work better on my throat but I use too much of it.

Walked about 1/2 mile total today (just to bring/pick-up DS from school). Cleaned the parlor today -- took down drapes (washed, hung to dry, & re-hung), dusted, washed windows, collected toys for kids to bring upstairs (they had promised to do it after school but I didn't want to wait). So I guess I got some exercise in there, too. At least I hope that what's causing my arms and upper back to ache.

Hope you all had a great day!

ummmmmmmm......Jiff?

How the heck did ya get those 2 pieces of cheese to melt on those two tiny thin pieces of turkey?

AND......what did you eat today and how much of it did you actually keep down!!!???

your loving sister,
not jiff (she's gonna KILL me!)

do you want me to write down the recipe for you???


here goes...

get out a plate.
lay slices of turkey on plate
top with cheese
open microwave door... do i HAVE to continue??????


as for today, well, actually, breakfast stayed down [turkey and cheese again]!!!!

my two protein shakes have stayed down!!!!

lunch: the chicken and vegs from a can of progresso chicken soup, about 1/4 cup, with 1/4 oz cheddar cheese.

after that didn't stay down, i tried some beef jerky, because it was fine yesterday. that didn't stay down either. neither did water.

so i got hungry later. and had some chicken nuggets from wendy's. so, there i was, peeling off all the breading, leaving almost no chicken, but what there was stayed down!!!!

and i just finished a 25-gram protein shake.

as for dinner... a big question mark. it might be tomato soup with american cheese. that ALWAYS is ok...
