June 18-19-20-21

had some time off for a camping trip with my SCA friends. We ran a IFGS type event in the mountains based on Dante's Inferno. We had a great deal of fun. An afternoon rain shower on saturday took way too much of the fun away not too mention the heat.
friday night dinner was pasta with tomato sauce.
saturday I had a bowl of oatmeal, two pitas with hummus, large slice of brie, lots of water, a leek-olive tartlette, a bowl of mushroom and barley soup- well actually more like broth as there were way too many mushrooms to pick out so I just drank the broth and tossed the mushrooms and barley, a roll and two mt dews. I spent most of saturday walkingup and down the mountain paths. I was aching and sore but had much fun.
sunday was two eggs with herbed brie for breakfast and fried potatoes. Had two mountains dews, a hand full of cherries and then after I got home took Jim out for father's day for steak. He had steak and I had a salad and french fries. plus much water and lemonade. I think though that all the calories I consumed this weekend were used up in toting and lifting and carting stuff around the mountain.

June 17

can't remember what I ate today as I got a call around 12:00 from the hospital that Timony had been hit by a car while driving her motorcycle. When we got home I made her some mama ramen and then she proceeded to eat most of what we had in the fridge.

June 16

slept in this morning
breakfast was ramen and milk
having a mt dew right now
lunch is tofu with garlic sauce and rice and much more water
had tons of water today. the first day it hasn't rained, must be that I need more water and miss being able to breath in my daily intake.
had another mt dew and really really want another one or a nap.
I was wrong- it started to rain this evening. I did not have another mt dew! Yeah me
Dinner was a Quorn sandwich with tomato lettuce and pickle and two glasses of lemonade

june 15

actually planned on sleeping in this morning but my fan fell out of the window at 5:05 so I was up. I wove, had water and a mt dew.
had a breakfast burrito with eggs, potato and cheese
rode into work
having lots of water now
lunch is leftover pad thai
will have another mt dew this afternoon
dinner became cauliflower and potato curry with lots of water. I was so tired when I got home from the bike ride and then when I went to bed at 9 found I could not sleep. I think it had to do with the fact that Jim is working odd hours this week so I knew he would be home at 11:30 and part of me was waiting for him. All the same, I would rather have had sleep.

June 10-14

Well it was a strange week with not a ton of food or of bike riding. I was in the airport wednesday night much later than I would like and then much longer the next day. Which is good because i had very little pocket money and so did not console myself with fried foods. It is true I do like them when I am feeling low. and bread- chewy bread products. Funny after the girls were born, I remember how empty I felt and how bread was the food that filled me and brought some peace to the feeling of anxiousness.
I made pad thai for dinner on friday night, zucchini with chickpeas and couscous for saturday night. Sunday I made breakfast burritoes and cookies for this weeks merriment. the girls are road tripping with my folks to North Carolina and I have a camping trip scheduled.

june9

Good nights sleep went to bed around 8:30 and slept until 6:30
got all my laundry put away and then kind of puttered around until I realized that it was time for work and i had not eaten anything. Fortunately I have some bread here at work so I am having two pieces of toast and a mt dew and a multi vitamin
lunch will be sesame tofu white rice and lots of water
Dinner tonight is spaghetti, green beans and garlic bread.

june 8

up at 5:30 I must have turned my alarm off as I have no recollection of it sounding. Wove a little on the baby loom. Road my bike in this morning through some think fog. It was lovely but there is a part of me that was expecting some mutant creature on 8 legs to come tromping out of the mists. I did have the pleasure of two herons flying with me for a little bit.
Cool, misty morning
Herons ghostly glide over
spirits on the wing.

had breakfast here at work as I puttered a bit too much at home. Brought a scone with butter and tastes like christmas jam. Had a cup of rose tea.
Lunch is a cream cheese sandwich with cucumbers, tomatoes and green onions.
Will have a soda at some point- most likely two
Dinner tonight is a mystery.
Mystery was solved and I had ramen and milk. I am a little sad that ramen has come back into my life. It is so easy and there when I know I need to eat but really don't want to think about what to eat.

June 4-5-6-7

I have been pretty good on what I eat lately. With Avalon home I am cooking more so we have good leftovers on scrounge night. Better than a bunch of chips! My soda intake has been 2 cans a day. And I have been drinking water. We did a bunch of yard work this weekend. Paid a neighbor to pull the weeds on the flagstone patio. I swear next summer I am just going to burn it down and the cement it all in. I am sooo sick of goatheads.
Finished warping up my loom down stairs and started the upstairs one. Both or interesting weave structures.

june 3

Up at 5 sewed the hems on my towels.
had a mt dew bright and early
breakfast was captain crunch, crunch berry cereal and milk
had water
lunch was rest of tofu with garlic sauce and white rice.
I have already finished my second mt dew. I really really want another one but will try my best to not give into the temptation.
Dinner tonight is Kosheri, lentils, rice, pasta, a homemade sauce that is amazing and fried onions and much much more water. This dish is from Egypt and seems simple enough but is really complex in flavors and textures and well one of my favorites. It is a bit of a pain in the hinny to make so I don't do it very often

June 2

Lovely rain coming down. Up at 5 and finished the set of towels that I have been lingering over. Had a big old bottle of water.
Breakfast was ramen and milk. the weather called for warm and I had a dental appointment so I wanted to be sure that I would be full as my tongue will be numb for a while.
Lunch was hot and sour soup and 1/2 order of tofu w/garlic sauce and white rice. Lots more water
did have two dews today
Dinner was pizza and milk and much more water before bed

June 1

started out as normal up at 5 with water by my loom.
Had leftover risotto for breakfast with a glass of milk.
Having mt dew right now
lunch is a Quorn pattie sandwich on rye bread with swiss cheese and a pickle. There is milk here at work so will have that to drink with it.
Dinner is chalupas. Fried tortilla with refried beans, lettuce, tomato, cheese and green onions. Good chance that will have sour cream and salsa on it as well.
I have missed cooking for the family but still need to work on keeping the amounts down

may 30-31

Weekend was good- well good emotionally but I over ate on saturday and had too many sodas on sunday.
I went shopping with the girls on saturday for swimsuits. I am kind of sad I won't be with them this year at the NC trip. But it will be nice that my mom and dad will have all their grandkids with them for this trip.
Made colcannon for dinner
Sunday was a me and Avalon day- we made new curtains for her bedroom and just sort of putzed around the house. She played the wii while I was warping my loom and watching her.
We went for a walk and about 10 stepes from the house I twisted my ankle on the curb-owie.
