It's been a two fold day. I had absolutely no energy and was in a bit of a funk this morning and then somehow I got a jumpstart and ended the day pretty fast paced.
Breakfast: a bacon egg sandwich, green machine drink
Exercise: 30 min BC workout with 90 sec plank and 20 pushups. 4 ladders outside.
Snack: Fruit snacks, a couple spoonfuls of honey greek yogurt. Yum.
I was feeling so yucky I just sat on the couch and picked up one of my daughters books to read. I set the timer for 15 minutes so that I wouldn't get too stuck (I can read all day long)
I then got up and started doing some putter cleaning. It's almost as if I don't have a purpose at times. Time to figure out my cleaning house purpose so I can feel a drive!
Lunch: Leftover meatballs from last night with extra sweet peppers on top. The flavor really goes well together.
I got a call from hubby saying my brother had been texting him about me helping with their move so I called the source and figured stuff out.
Snack: Poppy seed muffin. I ran to costco as my brother said he didn't have any ideas on their dinner so I offered to take them some. I just made more meatballs. So yummy. It was a huge race to get that done...I made some no bake cookies too. The bad part is that I didn't officially make my family dinner. We had been snacking on muffins and my daughter had some leftovers from last night, but it was a bit chaotic. I had changed my daughters piano lesson to the evening as well instead of thursday afternoon so that I could have a little more freedom of time then.
Dinner?? I went to a relief society Activity. They were talking about food storage, how to make yogurt, and cooking with alternative heat sources. It was interesting. I already knew a lot of what they taught, but got a lot of recipes and had a few things reaffirmed as to what I need to do.
My plan is to have a bunch of back up pantry meals that are easy quick and available in my pantry. I think it will help when I need something quick, but also having foods we like in storage will be a good thing. They also talked about having a plan as to what you would cook worst case scenario....I know I would not want to be cooking all day long. There are some foods I do need to get better practiced with (like breads, I haven't made any in a while!) so that if I had to make them I would be able to. Knowing what and how ahead of time will make a huge difference in stress levels. Really knowing how to use everything in my food storage would be helpful. Time to make sure I do!
I had a couple of no bake cookies and a sample of cheese cake from homemade yogurt. Pretty tasty.
Got in my water, not the veggies.
