Week 2 of "Diming"

I didn't make it to my meeting tonight.  I'll go tomorrow.  Randy's been putting in some crazy insane hours at work (21 hours on Friday and all weekend, for example!!) and he told them he'd work from home today.  Once I got home from work & grocery shopping, I'd rather spend time with him instead of Rosa.  I can't even begin to express how much this work makes me want to throat-punch / kick-a-baby someone! 

So here's my rundown of the week in "Diming".  I earn a dime for each item on my list for a prospective $7.00 a week.  I'm working towards a massage.  

*I drank at least 80oz of water every day. 
*Forgot my vitamin Saturday, which is unusual. I take those every day religiously. 
*I journaled in my book every day.
*I only got 5 fruits & veg in 3 days.  Still a work in progress.
*I got 2 dairy every day, thanks to cheese sticks & yogurt!
*I knew each morning what we were having for dinner & planned accordingly. 
*I only hit 5K steps on 3 days.  It should be more, but I wore slippers most all day Saturday & Sunday and I tend to shuffle, so my steps didn't register.  Pppth.  Lesson learned!
*I tracked every day. 
*I did 15 minutes of FLYing 6 out of 7.
*And I was at least IN bed by 11pm 4 out of the 7 days.  Weekends are going to be a fail, since Saturday Night Live is on.  So 1/2 credit there, since we usually watch that while in bed. 
On the plus side...look!  I have next week's dinners already planned!  And backup ideas, since Randy wanted me to get the fixin's for cheeseburgers at the grocery store.
We went to a Thai restaurant for the first time Saturday night!  Mainly because Miss Angela works there.  She's a hostess, but our server gave her our table so she could serve us! Her manager was happy about that, since she's been wanting her to try out serving.  Anyhoo, we got a sampler appetizer with chicken satay (OMG, I did not know there was a void in my life that was filled by Thai peanut sauce!!), seafood rangoons and spring rolls.  Randy got the crispy chicken, since he's not adventurous at all and Angel has brought that home before for us to try.  I got the drunken noodles with shrimp.  It was all really good and I tracked it as well as I could. 

Look at Mooch Jack and Mooch Jr. Daisy.  They know Randy is the marshmallow who feeds them at the table.  This is after Jack almost licked the finish off that plate!
So that's all for tonight, I'll pop in tomorrow after weighing in to report.  I'm going to get ready for bed.  Randy didn't get home til 11:30 last night and of course I sat up waiting for him.  Then he had a support call that really pissed him off at 3:30am (I mean yelling & slamming stuff around mad!) so yeah, I was up again.  Then I slept thru the alarm (it goes off at 5:30 and Randy nudged me at 6:30!) and had to deal with bitter cold & snow on the way into work.  I was only 6 minutes late, tho!

Later!
