Life

I have the day off from work today for my six month diabetes doctor appointment.  It was nice to sleep in a bit and make breakfast tacos. On Sunday I was walking in my back door, and my stained carpet stairs finally got to me and I pulled it out.  While the kadults were at work.  I am impulsive like that.   This is what...

Happy Friday!  Let’s start off by chosing a winner of my G.H. Cretors popcorn giveaway!  True Random Number GeneratorMin: 1 Max: 50Result:26 Congrats Zen!  Shoot me your mailing address at mybizzykitchen@gmail.com  Zen I was raised on popcorn and tomato soup. This is still one of my favorite things. Now I make popcorn in the microwave using a glass popcorn popper.   *********************** Thursday is WI day.  It...

I am loving these Lavash wraps.  And I just found a Pinterest board with all the things you can do with them – can’t wait to try these!  Two smart points for the whole thing – only 18 grams of carbs, 1o net carbs.  They are soft, slightly chewy and delish, and make my egg white/cheese/romaine breakfast burrito only 5 smart points. Work was busy...

My server was down this morning for quite a bit – so hopefully not too many of you were worried about me 😀   ******************** I love popcorn.  Tony made the best homemade popcorn, and I am glad that is one of the skills I was able to make as good as he did.  Still working on his fried rice!   I could eat a 12...

Not surpringly, my Mom spent Mother’s Day with her favorite child.  I remember last year it was so cold we were wearing winter coats while we shopped for flowers for her garden.  Yesterday was gorgeous – low 70’s, sun shine – and I was wearing a sleeveless shirt! One of the members of my Mom’s church is turning 100 this week.  She made a comment...

Not surprisingly, there was a bit of a gain on the scale yesterday.  Even though I knew it was going to be up, I was happy to go.  As I was walking there, I thought to myself, if you read a post where someone had an off week, would you call them a failure, tell them they aren’t worth it and they should just give...

Thank you to everyone who commented, texted me, sent me emails about my post yesterday.  It means so much to me that you are not only in my corner, but lifted me up when I needed it.  This blog and the friendships I have formed both online and in person has enriched my life more than you’ll ever know – so THANK YOU! When I...

While I don’t have a scale that works because they are both broken, my sister tends to weigh herself pretty much every day.  But last week she decided to ditch the daily weigh ins, stuck with the program, didn’t get the chance to get discouraged if her scale was up a bit during the week, which can sometimes mess with your head – and she...

I never thought I was a control freak, but I am beginning to think I am.  My work and home life has been out of control for several weeks, and its really starting to get to me.  Somehow my desk has become a dumping ground for stuff my attorneys need, but don’t want to keep in their offices.  Need to figure that out as I...

I hardly ever am hungry right when I get up.  I think its because I am used to eating breakfast at my desk a couple hours after I wake up.  But yesterday?  Hungry!  I ate half of this Premier Protein bar, and that hit the spot.  It’s 4 points for half and to me it tastes like a Snickers bar.   As most of you...
