My new favorite lunch… 6 Triscuits and those seasoned tuna medley sensations in a peel top can from Bumble Bee. Yummy! I had Thai chili earlier this week and today is sundried tomato and basil.

I held out for dinner last night and had over 400 calories saved. When we finally got around to it after all the yard work… I ate something I knew was safe but I didn’t take the time to log before I went to bed. I ended up 200+ cal. under again. I hate when I do that. I am just going to go back to my old method and eat something for dinner as soon as I get home so I am done. Otherwise this ending up too far under so many days a week makes my weight fluctuate all over the place and makes me crazy. What’s that you say? I know, I know, stay off the scale, you bonehead.

It was supposed to rain today through Friday but now it looks like it may hold off until Friday alone. That is good news except for the pansies that I planted last night that I didn’t water in. I don’t think it will get hot enough to hurt them today but I should water them when I get home. Matty and I stopped at the greenhouse on the way home last night and wandered. It was so nice. I miss smelling all that earth and humidity and being so active all day long. The days when I did that kind of production were the best ever. I was so fortunate to grow up in such a great work environment. Lots of fresh air and hard labor.

Matt and I are the happiest when we are in the yard working. Last night he dug a trench for an irrigation line and I drew a sketch of the backyard with measurements so he can get the supplies to put in some irrigation zones. It is so nice to tuck the Pumpkin into bed and still have a few hours of daylight to get some things done now.

I know we are still in for a few cold snaps (this Sat, we are looking at flurries, and the forsythia just bloomed this week!) but the end of the tunnel is near! Hallelujah!

We may meet a friend out tonight so I will save some cal for my one beloved Bloody Mary and a grilled chicken salad.

See ya later!
