Rain, Rain, Go AWAY!

Hey everyone. So Tim just opened the blog page and set the laptop in my lap... I think he was trying to tell me something, lol. Well this weekend was a little busier than hoped. Tim got called in Friday night to salt and I was pretty exhausted from a busy week so I just watched tv and went to bed early. Saturday I was on call all day so we didn't do much. I went through a bunch of school papers and threw away all of my board studying material... YAY!!! I went through some old mail and balanced my checkbook (a little tear was shed, lol). Tim and I started watching NCIS Season 1 and then went to bed. Not 30 minutes into sleeping, I got called in to school. It was to do anesthesia for a dog who had multiple foreign bodies (basically any materials that won't pass through the digestive system). I was there from 11:30-4:30 and then came home and went to bed. Nonetheless, my morning was wasted catching up on sleep.

This afternoon, Tim and I went to Sams Club and stocked up on a bunch of meat and fish. We then went to the grocery store to get a few other things that we didn't get at Sams. After we got done it took us a few hours to get everything put away. Since we buy meat in bulk at Sams we have to split it up in to smaller portions and vacuum pack it (w/ our awesome FoodSaver). This way we can freeze everything and it will stay nice and fresh!

We made Asian glazed drumsticks and oriental cabbage/snowpeas for dinner. It was quite delicious. The only thing was the sauce didn't thicken like it was supposed to. We think it was because we used Splenda instead of sugar....

Otherwise that is about it... the diet is still going well. We joke around about ice cream, and other treats but haven't strayed away. We will be going home this weekend which may make it a little harder but will do our best. Today was the last day of phase 1 for now and we are moving to phase 2 tomorrow. Adding fruits and occasional bits of whole grain foods.

Well I have rambled on long enough... I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. Looks like we are in for another thunderstorm... I think most of us are wishing it was all snow!
