Ready, Waiting, Oh Come On

Sigh. 

I actually felt pretty decent last evening.  With minor adjustment in food I never felt like I overate but was not hungry.  Had good energy, made soup and baked up the bread dough that's been hanging out in the fridge.  Didn't nod off at any point and in fact wasn't at all ready to sleep until relatively late, after 11:00.  

Which is why it's so maddening to wake up at 1:30, feeling worse.  Drainage, coughing, yuck.  Went back to sleep on the couch and when it came time to get up it was a struggle.  So frustrating.  Ended up being late again to work, not that it was a big deal, I just don't like it.  And I have little pep.  At least otherwise I feel better than I did when I woke up.  Thank goodness for that.  But I'm ready to be 100%.  110% even.

Oh, and I got rid of some water.  That's a good thing.

Breakfast:  Bread w butter, coffee

Bread recipe makes one large (2.5 lb) and one small (1 lb) loaf.  Sliced up the small loaf and I have to say it turned out excellent.  Crusty and delicious.  I'll slice up and freeze the big loaf at lunch, the small loaf should get me through the week.  I do not know whether breaking bread for breakfast will be an ongoing thing -- have done quite well without thank you -- but for the moment it's a pleasure.

Lunch:   Soup, bread w butter, swiss cheese

Yup.  Again skipped making a sandwich.

Dinner:  Mixed nuts, 12 oz All Day IPA, home chili deluxe, SF vanilla pudding

Hungry when I got home so a few nuts and the beer to take the edge off.  Chili from the batch I made a couple weeks back out of the freezer w/ cheddar, jalas and sour cream.  The other half of yesterday's pudding.  All solid eats, about zero effort.  Could have eaten more, certainly had the urge (the whole not ready to stop eating yet thing), but holding strong.

Exercise:  Nope.  See above.  Had designs but when I can't get decent sleep is problem.
