Last night my wheezing got to be a bit disturbing, trying to sleep. It was barely there, and only at the end of my full breathout, but enough to bother me so that I got up and took two puffs of Albuterol. At least Albuterol is not a corticosteroid.
Breakfast was 3 scrambled eggs [affiliate link], with bell pepper and onion. We are pretty much out of fresh vegetables. Hubby had to go into town, so I asked him to stop by a Sprouts and see if he can find any good deals there.
Update: 4:44pm. For lunch I had leftover green beans, about 2 cups with some freshly pressed garlic and plenty of butter. The cupboards are kind of bare today. I usually eat fresh steamed vegetables on my days off, but there is nothing in the fridge. So I waited too long to eat and got cranky.
I have lots of work to do this weekend with my husband's business, I have to prepare some W2s and 1099s. I talked with an accountant this morning, I am pleased with our discussion and I am so relieved to have someone to whom I can ask questions.
I made a to do list, and have been working steadily at it. I am out of baking soda [affiliate link] and need to wash my hair! I tidied up the kitchen, swept and mopped the kitchen floor, straightened up a little in the living room and vacuumed. I also straightened up an area that has been cluttering out into the middle of the living room so I'm pleased that I got that done.
Now I have to think about something for dinner! Dh and YS are working together today, usually they stop for a late lunch so maybe they won't need a meal. But that leaves ES and myself. I have to go out and milk but I think I'll jump in the shower first.
More later.
7:36pm. Dinner is chicken breast pounded until it is the same uh… flatness? So it will cook uniformly… then I cut it into chicken nugget sized pieces, dip in scrambled egg, then dip into almond flour [affiliate link] which is seasoned with pepper and sea salt [affiliate link]. Brown on each side, then place on a pan to bake in the oven another 20 minutes or so, until done.
We're also having Pioneer Woman's Butternut Squash Puree (minus any sweetener).
I also cut up a head of romaine lettuce and dh brought home cucumbers and tomatoes so I could put together a salad. I made my Avocado Mayo Dressing again. I just love making that stuff! I've had it not emulsify a couple of times and it is such a disappointment. But when it emulsifies, it is like magic!
I am feeling triggered and sad tonight. A father wants his children to eat “normal” food against the mother's wishes. It makes me sad. I hope the situation resolves favorably and I pray for the young mother and children.
Well, it's 9pm. I didn't have to take a nap again today. That means I'm tired and want to get my detox bath and crawl into bed.
Until tomorrow,
Starlene
