Happy New Years Eve!

So I am at work, at the copier, when the office manager says “do you have much else that has to get out today?”  I said I would be done in about 15 minutes for two packages that had to go out FedEx.  She says “as soon is that’s done go ahead and leave for the day.”    Mind you its 11:45 in the morning!!  What?? ...

Back to eggs. . .

Yep, back to my usual – egg white sausage mcmuffin!  I used the WW english muffins.  I like them but usually only buy them when they are sale, which isn’t very often!  I can’t believe it’s New Years Eve already!  We usually have a surf and turf dinner at home, but Tony doesn’t have much of an appetite these days.  I was thinking of making...

It’s not New Years Yet!

I’ve “talked” to some of my blog friends about my Friday post which will be a weight loss/personal choice challenge – whether it be to lose weight, exercise more, or simply drink more water every day.   It will be posted on January 2nd, along with my first of the month giveaway (so stay tuned!).  That being said, I stopped at our local beef stand on the way...

Blue skies. . .

I walked out my back door this morning to see this gorgeous sky!   I’ve been eating a lot of eggs for breakfast lately, so I thought I would have oats.  Banana, dark chocolate chip, roasted almond oats!  I had exactly 8 ghiradelli (sp?) dark chocolate chips.  I reheated my oats at work and then put the almonds and chocolate chips on top.  The chips...

My co-workers really know me!

So because I was gone over the holidays, I left all my Christmas loot at work.  So happy to bring it all home tonight!  My friend “W” at work put her presents to me in this box – love it!  Then she put a bunch of cool stuff from Williams-Sonoma.  Lots of cookie cutters, recipes on making sugar cookies, a HUGE spatula, little “green man” whisk,...

Monday morning. . .

and back to work.  Luckily even though I was off last week, so were many other people at my office so the piles I thought would be on my desk aren’t as big – whew! Breakfast was a homemade mcmuffin with 4 ounces of mandarin oranges.  I am still trying to figure out my camera, so be patient! Okay, my break is over.  I am...

Merry Christmas!

Whew, what a busy day!  So happy that we were finally able to celebrate today!  Joe came over around noon and we had our immediate family Christmas – got a ton of stuff, but my favorite things were my new camera, Joe gave us gift certificates to the high end movie theater that he works at (can’t wait to do that again!) and Hannah made...

After hospital food. . .

I think Tony was happy to get anything for dinner tonight!  Hannah had a baked potato topped with Hormel chili because she doesn’t like meat.  I made steak, new potatoes and green beans with garlic bread. On the way to the store I meant to drop off Tony’s prescriptions, but completely forgot!  Luckily the next town over has a 24 hour pharmacy, but turns out,...

TONY’S HOME!!!!

At long last!   Although leaving the hospital takes FOREVER – everyone has to sign off on him going home, the cardiologist, the orthopedic doctor, the internets, the janitor!  But all went well and he is now comfortably resting, with Ed by his side! While I was waiting for home health care to call me back before going to the hospital, I cut into one of...

Party Pizza Friday, but no Tony. . .

Okay, so we had our hopes up that Tony would come home today, but sadly that was not the case.   But things were in the works today that HOPEFULLY he’ll be home tomorrow.  I was talking to the joint care coordinator who faciliates from hospital to home, so that is a good sign! So I basically think that we have had every type of weather...
