Finally Friday's Menu

Happy Friday Gang. We are almost done with the audit they are wrapping it up at 11am today so we are having a closing lunch then which is just deli sandwiches. I think we did really well, but we will see if they recertify us. Irvin went over to his sister's house yesterday afternoon to help her with her baler. It would pickup the hay and she didn't know what was wrong. He got it all straighten out and showed her how to properly use it.

When I got home yesterday it was still so hot out that I decided just to water everything and wait a bit for it to cool down before I did anything outside. By the time it was cool enough I didn't feel like doing anything so just took some picture of what is left to put in the ground and how the plants are doing. We have some summer squash and peppers coming in and the garlic scapes are starting to curl so I will be cutting them probably next week.

QOTD: Do you prefer actual breakfast foods for breakfast or would you eat anything? Doesn't really matter to me. I usually have some sort of egg thing just because I have an abundance of eggs and they are easy to make, but I have had all sorts of stuff for breakfast including a salad just because that's what I felt like having. To me I eat what I know is going to fuel my body to get me going for the day.

B: coffee and egg/cheese omelet

L: deli sandwich

D: grilled haddock

30 minutes on the treadmill

Here are some of my pictures from last night. Have a great day and weekend everyone!!!

Good mornin Jennifer and everyone! Your plants look great!

We unexpectedly have the kids until 6 today. My mom is going to pick them up then I have PT this morning at 10.

We had severe weather in my general area last night. Lubbock, where Texas tech is almost got hit by a huge tornado. They got a lot of hail & wind damage and some flooding(they always flood). Morton which is close to them had a huge wedge tornado move by them. The videos and pictures coming out of there are amazing and scary as heck. I'll attach a photo of a mobile radar that was VERY close to the tornado at the end of my post.

I hope to chainmaille today quite a bit. I have one load of bedding to wash and put away. After PT I might not feel up to either but I'll try. Tuesday it kicked my ass. My shoulder hurts really bad and somehow I've managed to hurt my other arm around the elbow. When I try to lift things and raise my arm. It's been around a few weeks but I hope it'll stop soon.

we ended up getting Thai food yesterday. They have a new thing that's just meal and veggies in a low sugar sauce/broth. So so good. I can't eat rice and rice noodles are even harder on me. So happy they finally have something other than satay that I can have.

QOTD: I can do whatever fits at the time. I'm a big fan of breakfast foods anytime but like this morning I can do without regular breakfast stuff. Though I am not proud of my choice this morning! LOL

B: 6 totinos pizza rolls. Coffee. I was lazy this morning for sure.

L: egg, street size tortilla and what's left of my Thai atkins bowl I got at the Thai place yesterday.

D: not sure on this one. It may end up being a PP shake.

Yikes, I saw some of the coverage on Ryan Hall and it looked very scary in your neck of the woods. Hope you and yours didn't suffer any damage. And thank you for that info on Thai food. I never enjoyed it before but will sure give it another try now with your modifications. Hope your PT is productive!

Good morning everybody!

I knew that if I kept thinking it was Friday I would eventually be correct. And here I am. At work we have switched to a M,W,Th. In-office schedule, so I am at home today. Friday was actually my favorite day to go into the office because of light traffic, but I was outvoted.

Our charitable event was fun yesterday, we worked with a group that provides books to the schoolchildren in certain areas of Chicago. Lunch was a pretty good salad. The after-event was held back in the city, so I passed. Just driving through the suburbs was 1 1/2 hours.

The plans for this weekend are a 10-K tomorrow morning, and we are going to an early Father's Day dinner on Sunday.

Pictures are from our fishing trip last week.

QOTD: usually I prefer traditional breakfast food, but not always. I can digest pretty much anything, but eggs are still something that I can just eat in small portions.

Breakfast: bagel

Lunch: Italian sandwich

Dinner: steak

Have a great weekend, everyone!

Jim, your pictures are amazing. Are those water buffalo?

Thank you! They are Highland cows. They had babies, but they are not in that picture. That is in Southwest Wisconsin, kind of near Trish.

I dont like eggs and am lactose intolerant so that leaves out most breakfast foods. I can handle pancakes or waffles. I usually have toast with a piece of ham or cheese. I love leftover pizza or pasta for breakfast but end up with heartburn if I do that now. I have a hair appointment at noon and not sure what else going on today.

Love the garden pictures. Everything looks so healthy. Everyone have a good weekend.

I swear it is the goat and rabbit poop that is making a different this year with the plants.

We did it everyone. We are recertified has an OSHA VPP Star company. It was a rather nerve-racking week, but it all paid off in the end. I think there is only two other plants that need to be recertified this year.

Good job. This site needs a congratulations button along with Like.
