Yesterday we surprised the kids and brought home a puppy!! They have been begging for one for years and we felt like the time was right to bring one home.
Meet Angus 🐕 He's a Golden Retriever/King Charles Cavalier Spaniel mix. He's 11 weeks old and currently weighs about 8 pounds, he should be around 35 pounds fully grown. I know it will be an adjustment for a while as he gets potty trained etc but we are so excited. 😂 Wish us luck! 🤪
Cheese is good! I ate a block of chipotle oven baked cheese with lunch yesterday and it was divine. I love it, but know that it halts any progress I'm making, and will even trigger eating in excess to where I'll gain weight. It's sad but I have accepted it. If I eat it in small quantities with a meal, it's ok, but I really have to work to keep it in check.
What's your favorite cheese? How do you incorporate it? Do you see negative results when eating it?
Happy Sunday! Sharing a video today from our week, one of the highlights. This was Wednesday evening church, normally they have a more casual prayer meeting where someone plays the guitar, but they were doing some construction in the fellowship hall so they had their prayer meeting in the sanctuary. No one was there to play the piano so my my Grandma did it, she's been playing the piano in church for probably 80 years.
For context, she's 88, she had a really bad fall 5 years ago now and hit her head and ended up with a lot setbacks, similar to having a stroke. She has a lot of dementia like symptoms also (I am sure related to her Type 2 diabetes), she really can't read music anymore, and she has trouble seeing well, and she needs to wear hearing aids to hear but hates wearing them, so on this night she didn't want to wear them. My 93 (almost 94) year old grandpa takes care of both of them on their farm. Anyway, on this night she sat down on the piano and led worship as people called ...
Happy Friday!! I hope you're having a wonderful week! Today is Nathaniels last day at his robotics camp, he's been having an amazing time this week! I also recently got a promotion at my job, so Saturday we are going to get dressed up and go to a nice dinner with the whole family and celebrate. Church Sunday and then prepping for the week ahead.
Do you have any fun plans for this weekend? Temptations you are going to plan to avoid?
Good Evening Y'all!! Accountability post for yesterday and today. I was successful at meeting my protein grams which is 135 for me. Yesterday I had 2 of the eggs from McDonald's egg mcmuffin's for breakfast and the 2 canadian bacon off of them. I didn't eat the bread of the mcmuffin and I ordered them minus the cheese. For lunch I had a Wendy's Baconator minus the bread and cheese. For supper I had Mississippi Roast.
Today I had 2 egglife wraps with egg, bacon crumbles, and cheese. I skipped lunch. Then for supper I had La Hacienda nachos minus the chips from my favorite Mexican restaurant. I'm pretty pleased with myself. Here's my stats for the last 2 days. Blessings!!
