Monday morning. What a night last night was!! I don't think I'd been asleep an hour and the thunderstorm started. Poor Blue doesn't much care for thunderstorms anymore and up onto our bed he jumped. Hubby actually woke me talking to the dog, not the the dog, but Blue is a mama's boy and he was plastered up next to me like glue. Hubby was snoring again almost immediately.
It flashed, it boomed, and it rained for what seemed like an eternity. Finally passed enough for Blue to go back to sleep on his pillow and me on mine. I'm exhausted!!!
The good news is, about 2 hours after I took my first dose of the new antibiotic the bump in my mouth started to subside. It is very tender but at least I don't have this huge bump for my tongue to feel anymore. Very happy about that.
The bad news is, even though I ate modestly yesterday, the scale climbed to 217 this morning!! Seriously??? I had one cheese omelet, probably two tablespoons of hashbrown, 1/2 slice of toast and then had Thai for late lunch/early dinner but didn't even eat half my portion??? Must have been some serious sodium in my food. I am definitely feeling less than excited about my progress on the scale.
WINCO and Trader Joe's were fun ... if going to grocery stores can be considered fun. I love Trader Joe's but am never sure what to buy there. It was fun to compare prices at WINCO. Sure wish there was one closer to our home ... they did have some good prices on many items I typically buy.
Mom is back home. She spent the last couple weeks house-sitting and visiting a friend. It's always nice to have her around. Catch up day at work today I hope. I have a couple of clients and one phone conference. They are moving me to a new "cubby" on Wednesday so I need to clean my current space and have everything packed for the move. Guess I better quite goofing off then and get to what I need to do here this morning so I can get to the office!!!
Last but not least, I have to decide on a potluck dish for Wednesday. We are having our annual summer meeting at work which includes a breakfast and lunch potluck. Need to pick healthy stuff I can eat ... potlucks are not easy for me, sort of like buffets ... EVIL!!! LOL!!!
Have a good day ...

Morning my dear Carol, sorry you are starting your Monday off so tired, and that the scale was up. Not the best Monday, but you are here and we love you!

Good Morning Carol! You sound very chipper this morning. Don't be too disappointed in that scale. I am sure it is the sodium. That really does it to me sometimes too. We had severe thunderstorms yesterday too. I don't like them anymore than Blue and I don't know if I'll ever get used to all the alerts here but I guess I have to take the bad with the good. I am so happy your tooth is feeling better and these new meds are working. You just had some stubborn tooth there. I hope you everything accomplished that you need to today. Hugs!

Good morning, Carol! Sure wish we would get some of that rain! It is so hot and dry here. The corn crop is just about gone, as are the soybeans. So sad...all those crops just decimated by this drought and heat. We have had 14 days of 100 plus temps this year so far, and there is no end in sight. :( Poor Blue...my doggies are the same way, bless their little hearts! Have a wonderful day, and know that someone in the mid-west thinks you are an amazing, beautiful, awesome, fabulous woman!!!

In answer to your question Carol I will be leaving on Friday the 26th and coming back on August 1. 2 days later Ashley will be arriving and then the whirlwind of company until we leave for Jamaica on the 26th I think.

I feel the same way at Trader Joes! Sharon and Densible were so kind to write me a list of their faves. Dens has a lot... I don't go often enough cause they are all 3 hrs away :( I have a summer themed pot luck Friday, I'll be making a green spring mix salad w/ berries, walnuts and feta. There!

Two of my fav summer dishes-Caprese Salad-lovely heirloom or vine ripened sliced tomato with fresh mozzarella, basil, drizzled with a teeny bit of olive oil and balsamic "syrup" Just boil some vinegar until it's about half it's volume. It will cool down to a lovely syrup, that is sweet and still sharp. Watermelon cubes tossed with feta, greek olives, mint, and some thinly sliced red onion that has been marinated in lime juice for an hour. Oh-one more-Lightly steamed asparagus rolled in a slice of prosciutto with a dab of soft goat cheese. Oh an dome more-melon wedges wrapped in prosciutto. Carol-so happy to see you back! Cindyshine-I had the same salad, except with rocket and almonds tonight for dinner. Delicious.

I love Trader Joe's too! Problem is that the closest one to me is an hour's drive away. :( Good luck at the potluck. It's so hard when you have such a variety of good-looking foods to chose from. Be strong! You can do it!
