A Bitter Day

Another lean ogre this morning. He was especially lean and green today. 1 cup milk, 1 tablespoon flaxseeds, 1 whole nanner, a scoop of Amazing Grass, and the rest of the spinach in the bag. The spinach took up almost the whole blender so it wasn’t as sweet as it has been. Still yummy though.


After breakfast I went to my first Bible study here in NC. The squirrel spent 2 hours in the nursery and did alright. She cried as soon as I put her down. It can only get better right? The topic for the day was bitterness so I could completely relate to it. The past year or so I’ve been struggling with that evil word. It’s hard not to being a military wife. I learned a lot today about being able to let go of the bitterness. It was also nice to be able to discuss it with people I’d never met before. Sometimes it’s easier to talk to someone you don’t have any history with. Know what I mean?

The Bible study was good. I learned a lot and met a lot of nice people. However, afterwards I was in a funk. I wasn't very hungry so I made a salad for lunch. Lettuce mix, grated carrot, strawberries, blue cheese, and strawberry balsamic dressing.

I ended up trying to go for a run but ran to the end of our road and turned back. I was just not into it. Thankfully, the squirrel fell asleep on our outing. I put her to bed and I made a cup of coffee... Not sure which is better the Christmas Blend or Peppermint Creme...

A snack... 1/2 cup cottage cheese, a pear, and a sprinkle of cinnamon. My new favorite snack. So good.

Then I sat down to watch the Glee finale I recorded last night. I love Glee. The finale was perfect.

It cheered me up.

Breakfast was for dinner since the husband was running late. 1/4 cup of oats, a whole banana, 1 cup water, coconut, almond butter, and a drizzle of maple syrup.

I've had such a weird appetite all day... Actually for the past few days.

Right before bed the squirrel entertained us with her new trick. Any circus people looking for their next big act? Notice we haven't accomplished the listening trick yet...

Chatting away...

Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday... We've got a big weekend planned so look forward to some good pictures!
