Ms Elizabeth's Journal, 13 March 2014

My buns are officially frosted. Between the foot of snow, the 25 mph winds, the pipes freezing in the kitchen, giving the calves extra milk and lots of bedding to snuggle up into, my car coated in a nice thick sheet of ice, a kid with a 2 hour delay, and a toddler who has discovered not only how to pick his nose but feed the buggers to the dog as well.. I was late to work this morning. So? No gym over lunch. I worked through it to try and attempt to catch up on work. I succeeded in putting gravy on a co-workers binder. Go me!

Now I have to figure out how to log a hot pork sandwich smothered in gravy with mashed sweet potatoes and dressing into my daily log. I had a small breakfast.. The scale said I lost weight this morning.. all excuses but OMG was it good. And I'm sorry but you cannot ask me "Do you want gravy on that??" when I'm A.. in the middle of a blizzard, and B.. craving everything that isn't nailed down. Gravy? Of course!!!! What kind of question is that?? and C didn't bring a lunch because I knew I would eat it in the car on the way to work because the 1 hour drive took 2 freaking hours! So I went to the cafe at work... where they had things that included gravy. *smacking head*

I will see what the damage is as soon as I log everything I've eaten so far. On the plus side I managed to not eat dinner last night because who wants dinner at 10 pm after working in a barn for 4 hours. Because it was cold.. and windy.. and things were freezing left and right. Want to see something really freaky? Go into a barn on a really cold snowy night and climb into the hay loft. The wooden walls that are normally red turned white. The steel roof made weird popping noises. And a cat tried to climb up my leg to make a home under my jacket.

Good news is I'm not nearly as sore today as I was yesterday. :)

Sounds like quite the day! I'm feeling lucky that we've had good weather, no blizzards and hardly any snow this year. After not having dinner last night, and a small breakfast this morning your body probably needed those calories from lunch anyway. I hope the snow is gone soon!

Hate that you are having a bad day. Just what we needed - a March Blizzard!

I don't think I'd want to be friends with anyone who refused gravy. I have trouble reminding myself it isn't a beverage but to reject it is just downright impolite so good for you. Climbing haystacks in a cold barn? I'd need a gallon of hot brown gravy - just pour it on my head and let me lick my vision clear. I thought about you last night - that movie 'look who's talking' was on in the background because I was busy catching up from the internet being down 12 whole freaking hours .. anyway .. it was the montage where she kept stepping on the scale and her lower lip quivered .. I thought 'gosh.. that was me this morning and I'm not even pregnant... but I know someone who is ..." and you handle it so well. Thank you for the support and kindness on my journal. Gravy on.. uh, I mean.. carry on.

Thank you for the smile and glad you enjoyed your pork and gravy, which reminds me I've got 2 containers of it in the freezer.

I'd sell my mother for gravy. One thing I miss terribly. And boudain. (Southerners and Cajuns know what I mean there). I miss it sooooo much. Maybe at Easter!

omg...thank you for the big smile and the visual of the cat!! Glad you aren't as sore today! I'm also with Bella, Gravy is a source of total contentment!! I could just swim in it if I allowed myself!! It should be a food group all to itself!! Hope you have a better day!

Somehow I am missing taste buds that appreciate gravy. Of course, I have plenty of other unhealthy delights in my life lol. Hope the weather warmed up a little for you!!
