The bed was big enough and I could lay next to him – his leg is really elevated, so it made it interesting for me to get out of bed because I am so short but it was so nice to snuggle!  One of our family rituals is to watch Wheel of Fortune.  He was dozing in and out and I thought “aha!  this my...

that my sugar free latte this morning was sugar free!  I finished drinking my coffee and having breakfast by 8:15 this morning.  I was moving boxes and files at work and around noon I thought to myself “I should test my blood sugar its probably getting pretty low.”  NOT!  I am going to send an email to them this weekend.  The difference between the SF...

So I can see Tony today!!   Two days without him is just too long if you ask me!  Plus, he needs me.  The doctors made rounds this morning – his wound isn’t healing as quickly as hoped, he’s propped in a weird position and put on bed rest at least through the weekend.  🙁 In the back of our minds we both knew this could...

Mark at Training Fuel chose this weeks BSI – EGGS!  I loved his choice because you can go in so many different directions with this!  From cakes, muffins, omelets, quiches – its limitless!  But the first thing I had to do was put the hashbrowns on!  Here’s how I do my hashbrowns.  Dice potatoes and put in a wide skillet.  Cook with Pam for just...

I am in heaven:  I think what makes me so happy about this salad is the dressing.  So simple too!  I used 4 tablespoons of hot salsa verde sauce and mixed it with 2 tablespoons of fat free ranch dressing – so 6 tablespoons of dressing (which is a lot!) comes in at just 40 calories! 2 cups romaine 1 cup red cabbage red pepper...

That is how I described my breakfast this morning!  My good old egg sammie was half of my breakfast with the last slice of my hot pepper cheese – note to self – buy more! I still had strawberries left so I decided to make the other half of my english muffin a strawberry waffle.  I sliced 4 strawberries and laid them on top of...

I am certain that if Tony were home tonight, a phone call would be made to our local pizza joint!  When I talked to him right after dinner, I believe he threw up in his mouth a bit when I told him what was on the menu!    So there really aren’t any exact recipes for dinner – just kind of made it up as we...

On Monday my co-worker asked when I was going to do the Jillian 30 shred dvd again, and since I was out with Tony yesterday, I told her today.  I emailed her and she said she wasn’t feeling well and she’d do it with my for another time. My first thought “cool, I can read blogs for a whole hour at lunch!”  But later on...

Since we had packed for the hospital then night before, when the alarm went off at 4:30, we were up dressed and in the car by 4:47!  Let’s just say the traffic to downtown Chicago is a BREEZE that time in the morning!  We actually made it to the hospital by 5:45!  So we went to valet the car, and they valey doesn’t “open” until...

Thank you so much for all your well wishes!   It must have worked because they replaced Tony’s knee and all went well.  And I know Tony will look forward to seeing your comments when he can!! It was a long day though – we were up at 4:30 and I just got home now and it’s 9:00 p.m.!  Going to catch up with Hannah and...
