I don’t know what happened to my alarm this morning.. but I woke up to a phone call from my sister saying “Dr. Drill wants to know why you’re not here!!” I hauled it out of bed, 1/2 dressed in the van & made it there about 12 minutes later (it’s almost a 10 minute drive!) I still ended up missing 1/2 of Boot Camp, so I was bummed, but I guess a 1/2 hr of hard work is better than nothing!!
So, I go home, get everyone dressed, breakfast, usual stuff… and then went to do my weekly Wal-Mart trip & my grocery shopping. I had to be back by 12:30 to watch my neighbor’s 3 boys for her. I’m starving!! And to get home, I have to drive down Broad Street- past all of the fast food places…. not that they were particularly appealing, but they reminded me of how hungry I was & gave me a craving for Taco Bell!! So I reminded myself that I had bought tortillas & cheese to make some quesedillas & sped up, driving past all of these places before I could run through the drive thru & of course justify my junky lunch b/c I was in a hurry to get home!!
So you’re reading & thinking I’m doing pretty good so far right? Well, unfortunately, when I got home, I realized that the tortillas I bought aren’t the normal ones- instead they’re 3 points each PLUS the cheese!! So, since I know a TB soft taco supreme is only 6 points, I know dinner is low points, I have most of my flex points left for the week , AND it was what I was really craving… I justified it & got my hubby to go get me lunch!! (which with the gas prices, kinda sucks to drive all the way back there…. but I thought it’d be worth it.) Well, the sweet heart that he is, did go for me, but ordered the wrong thing! He confused Taco & Burrito & ordered me 2 Burrito Supreme’s. I knew they were higher points, but didn’t want to hurt his feelings after he did me a favor, so I ate them anyway. Then after I ate them (mistake!!) I looked up the points- 9.5 EACH!!! OUCH!!! So, my day is pretty much shot… at least I have flex points & a low point dinner planned. Be back with actual menu later!!
*** Thought I posted the above earlier, but apparently I didn’t… so I’m back to update & post my menu for the day…. I’m scared!!! 
( I ended up with awful cravings (probably b/c of the unhealthy lunch…) & then I felt sick along with a splitting headache & had to lay down for a nap (good thing Jason was working from home most of the day!) He was a brat though, he woke me up by yelling- “Jynell, get up- it’s 7:00!!” – Knowing full well that I needed to be in Borough Hall at 7:15 for the Code Enforcement meeting tonight!! Oh well… he did take us out to dinner so that I would have to cook… but that kind of blew the low point dinner plan… not horribly… it just didn’t make up for lunch like I’d hoped…
Here goes anyway…
