Brrrr!!!
Crazy March weather!!
Its 18 degrees here this morning, and we got brushed by the nasty storm that everyone got north of us. It is supposed to be 60 tomorrow!! Can anyone say get sick weather??!
I have been doing lots better with my new breakfast regimen! It takes me a while now to get hungry. I can honestly say that I have finally listened enough to know that I am hungry, and not just thirsty, or just bored. It is a kind of crazy breakfast, but I am glad I don't have that idea that breakfast has to be cereal, or fried eggs and bacon, or pancakes. There isn't anything wrong with the traditional stuff, it is just a matter of control, portions and carbs...
I think I'll always have an issue with getting my protein up, and reducing my carbs...but at least I changed the breads to whole grains. The added fiber is a good addition to any diet.

I had a long day yesterday, I had my little man yesterday. All day. He told a lie at school, and told the teacher he was sick, threw up and everything. School called his mom, more or less cussed her out, said they just can't figure out how she can not see how sick he is, bla bla bla. He gets home, and wants to go outside to play.Not sick at all, and not fevered. She tried to tell the teacher that I would not have let him go to school like that, but got hung up on!! He started changing the story a little, and said the teacher said he had red cheeks and took him to the nurse, who said he had a temp of 106. Duh, I think he would have been in the hospital, and not school with a temp of 106. *sigh* well, all that got worked out I hope. He was none to thrilled with his day off from school. I explained to him that he couldn't watch tv, and had to sit on the couch with me, and he was having a big time out day. I think he finally got it last night, when he couldn't go with his sister to church. His mom told me this morning about it. We both have figured it out as acting out because he misses his dad. Mom and dad are divorcing. Ah,well, such is life, eh? Full of mystery and drama sometimes....

On a brighter note, even with the brisk day today, my other neighbor rom down the road, managed to get her son to the bus stop on time today! We had a nice little chat, and she offered to ride me and my little charge to her bus stop, because it was pretty cold. I found out that she is a chef!!Worked in restaurants in Italy, and various places in Europe and the US. Worked in DC for a while, and is now back home. We had a great time chatting today, and I gave her a jar of my sweet hot pickled hot peppers. She is supposed to bring me a jar of her asian pickles. She is a pretty grounded person, and whole food, and all natural is important to her too. I invited her to stop up anytime during grilling season, for a visit and some good conversation. Its nice to have an intelligent conversation with someone now and again!! lol!!

Well, its time for me to be off, and get some crochet done, get some house work done, and whatnot!! Have a wonderful day today everyone!!!
