Is today already Thursday?

Wednesday, August 22, 2012

This week is going by so fast. I very rarely drink but I saw this 4 ounce bottle of Merlot and I bought it. I thought it won't hurt. Well, I poured it in a nice glass and I'm drinking it while I prepare supper.

I made hourdevours I think I misspelled that snacks before supper. I cut up green and red peppers. a little bit of feta cheese and some (y cocktail rye bread pieces.)

In the meantime I put two chicken breasts in the oven with some tomatoes that are about ready to go south so I can make baked chicken and popped tomatoes for supper. Very good dish. Just put garlic, olive oil and cover with foil. Cook about 45 minutes and voila got a great meal there. I cooked an extra chicken breast to have for tomorrow.

So, I had forgotten how much I like Merlot wine. It's such a deep satisfying flavor. I should put it on my tracker and see how many calories it is. You know I wasn't feeling like a million over the past couple days and I wasn't eating much and today I could probably eat the kitchen sink so I've decided to try to enjoy what I eat.

I wanted to go to Dairy Queen but did not Go Woo Hoo!!!!!

I did get my hair cut. I have not heard anything else about the job in New Mexico.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Tomorrow, my dear friend Patti has been released by her physician to start swimming again so it's back to the pool every day for at least two of our swimming crew and I'm pretty excited.

Have a great night everybody.

    You did good on bypassing DQ.

When you get back into the pool, that will make the time pass. I love being in the water.

    Way to go, Jem!! You deserve a great big pat on the back for being able to pass on DQ. You have more willpower than I do, that's for sure.
Enjoy your swim. I know it will feel great!!!
Hugz,
Sharon

    Good for passing up DQ. Where I live in VT, we don't even have one, and I am glad. LOL..................
I like to have a glass of wine with dinner and the calories are not that bad.
And.......I know today is Thursday, but I am a day off and my body keeps telling me today is Friday! I wish!
Hugs,
Karen

    Your dinner sounds great! Good for you not going to DQ. Those things off our plan never taste as good as we expect. Just disappointing. emoticon

    Still Wednesday. LOL. WTG on blocking the DQ idea. The sensation never lasts and then I get depressed for making a bad choice for me.
Glad you are going to be able to swim soon. Great!
Enjoy your week! emoticon
