Snow Day

Are we still in SC? I am seriously doubtful. I can't believe it snowed at Christmas and then just a few weeks later snowed again. We got 6 inches by the end of the day so of course everything was closed, and we got to stay home and play in the snow. My office is closed again today, but Glen is making the trek to work.

A little CVS excitement...

I was super excited about the CVS ad for this week! Since I have given up caffeine my drink choices have been limited. Even though before I was pregnant I pretty much stuck to just coffee and water, now that I can't have certain things makes me want them even more. This is what I got this week...all for $4!

16 Izzes (this will last me awhile)
8 Starbucks Frappaccinos (I might have a sip when Glen drinks these)
2 packs of Altoids

P.S. I also left CVS with 10 ECBs. A pretty good week if I do say so myself.

Saturday Morning

Saturday morning we didn't have to cook any breakfast because we got FREE spicy chicken biscuits from Chickfila and FREE decaf coffee for me from Dunkin Donuts (thankfully they are practically next to each other). We Glen needed a filling breakfast because he started preparing (moving furniture and ripping up carpet) our rooms for hardwood installation!

Jambalaya-ish

I can't say that I have ever made jambalaya, and after last night I probably still can't say I have made jambalaya, just something jambalaya-ish.


Brown rice topped with tomatos, onions, green peppers, celery, garlic, chicken sausage and seasoned with worsteshire and hot sauce.

Back to the old grind

I am officially back to work after having a 2 weeks off. My break was good. I got last minute Christmas shopping done, went on lunch dates with Glen, celebrated a stress free Christmas and New Years, bought new flooring, and laid around watching Heroes. I am glad to be back, glad to have a routine, glad to be making money again.

Also, today I woke up feeling like myself. After I found out I was pregnant I wondered if I would feel like myself again before this baby was born. I was doubtful, but it happened (at least today). Maybe this means I will get my dinner time appetite back or that I won't be going to bed regularly at 9:00. Welcome 2011. You've been good to me so far!

Belated Friday Confessions: I ate a big mac or 2

Friday Confessions was supposed to expire in 2010, but I missed last week due to our little trip up to Greenville and Hendersonville. So I will leave you with one last one...

I'm pregnant. It does weird things to you. I was sick for a couple of weeks, all day long. That changed a bit to just being sick afternoons and nights. That got even less to just nights, and now I think I am done with being sick or at least I am crossing my fingers. Those weeks I was sick all day I had NO appetite. It was hard to find anything that I would eat. Then when it got less and less I had weird cravings. You have to understand that Glen and I do NOT eat McDonalds. EVER. However, I wanted a big mac. So I got one and though it was tasty as I was consuming it, I felt so sick afterwards. Then the next week I got another. What is wrong with me?

That whole McDonalds thing was short lived, but I am wandering what my next craving will be and if I will give in.
