The Not Really Day

Saturday, December 11, 2021

TGIS.  I know the saying is usually TGIF but I was way too busy yesterday to feel any kind of relief that it was Friday.  Got home and was in bed not long after 8:00.

Of course early to bed means early to wake, which was sometime around 3:00.  I did manage to make myself go back to sleep until 5:00 and then dozed for a while after my aborted walk in the recliner.  Finally feeling decent after a cup of coffee, I definitely needed the extra sleep.  As an added bonus, very little snoring recorded and a good number on the scale ... though once again I'm less than fully confident in its accuracy.

Breakfast:  2 egg omelet with cheddar cheese and a bit of sour cream, sausage patty, 1/2 grapefruit, coffee

Quick and tasty.

Lunch:  Wild rice with ham soup

Version 2.0.  Winged it based on the Lunds and Byerlys recipe.  Added celery, more onion, more broth, used milk instead of half and half.  And much more ham.  Turned out very good.  I've really been eating well lately.  Have plenty left for the next couple of days.

Dinner:  Culver's mushroom and swiss burger, 12 oz Miller Lite

Not the most visually awesome burger but it was tasty as always.

Exercise:  Not really.  Got up, checked the weather which seemed OK despite what was a miserable forecast, and got out there.  Moved very slowly, was very tight.  Just did not feel right.  So between that and a lack of confidence in the weather holding -- we're supposed to get wind up to 60mph this morning -- I turned back before I made it more than a half mile.  Less than 15 minutes.  I'll be active around the house today which will help, but that'll probably be it.  Edit:  Went and walked around a craft show for 20 minutes plus, so another kinda-counting but not really activity.
