For me. Most of you are probably up way before I am. But 6:30 is way too early for me. Which is why I didn't actually get up until 6:45 and had to be at work by 8.
I didn't want to go to work. Resented having to go.
See. I tell G that this means I am getting closer to deciding to be "retired" or "semi-retired".
Today it was stinking hot at work, humid and I was damp and sticky by 8:15. And then I had to go empty the water plant pools which had gotten thick and stinky. OMG. Sticking ones hands in the water and having slimy things "brush" past and touch you---- I felt like running around screaming. and then there were the water spiders and the frogs. I ended up dipping stuff out and pouring it on the gravel. We also hosed off the plants. Later, while watering the sedums--I got stung by a BEEEEEEE
G and I had a nice dinner. Steak wrapped in bacon (oh, stop), steamed broccoli, plain white rice. I had vegetable kabobs as an addition to my plate.
I am trying to "eat mindfully" and at work I had a cucumber, cantaloupe chunks, water, ham and cheese rolled up (low carb), more water, a nice juicy "eastern" peach, and more water. Mostly I was choosing foods that would elevate my water levels. I think my "hunger" is more about being thirsty than being hungry.
I went out to the garden to get veggies for the kabobs and got many many many mosquito bites as it had rained about 30 minutes before I went out there. Got a lot of cucumbers, some squash and a shirt front full of Sun gold cherry tomatoes. I left the peppers and tomatoes for another day.
My parsley plants are almost 5 feet tall and ridiculous. I need to pull them out and strip off the leaves and make my frozen parsley leaf rolls for use in SummerFallWinterSpring recipes. Remember Princess SummerFallWinterSpring on Howdy Doody?
You are an amazing lady!
