Snow Day Fun



Recommended Posts

I just made myself a cup of Peppermint "Tea" and am watching and old movie from TCM.

If you are snowed in today, what are you doing for fun?

Even prepping for snow days has changed since WLS. The snow is due here early Saturday morning (I'm in NYC) and yesterday I went out shopping. Bought fruit to nibble on..and for dinner, I have farrow and asparagus to go with the roast chicken the BF is bringing by after work. What I didn't buy....how 'bout candy, Cookies, chips, soda, etc. That's just too tempting and why would I want to sabotage myself anyway. I did buy ice cream...because he likes it and I can eat a little bit and feel like I indulged.

As far as what we have planned for fun...well...I'll leave that alone for discretion's sake... ;)

El Niño rain and King high tides on the California coast. Lots of storm activity

Gotta clean the gutters again. And stay dry. We need the rain.

Going to dinner and warriors basketball tonite to Celebrate my oldest boy's 30th (!)

Birthday..... Yikes. How did time slip by....

Just like WLS. The years come and go. Glad they are lighter and healthier years.

That sounds relaxing, just as long as you aren't reading a book about the "Donner Party". :)

I won't reread The Thin Man today. I think that was the first time I had ever heard of the Donner party.

Stay safe all you East Coasters (and some of the south!)

We've been flat out balmy here in Idaho for the last couple of weeks. High 40's and some rain. I'll take that as opposed to 2 feet of snow! Although snow days can be kind of fun just hanging out watching movies and whatever else....

Here in Missouri we've had snow and ice for several days, and Snowpocalypse is now moving toward the East Coast.

You're welcome! ;)

am watching and old movie from TCM.

You omitted the important thing: Which movie?

King high tides

my oldest boy's 30th (!)

Never heard of King high tides. Uncle Google, here I come.

Now there is the spirit !

Dub, you of all people are not permitted to post only five words.

I'm skeptic enough to think that, when NYC'ers are berserk with terror over warnings of snow paralysis, we'll perhaps have three - five inches. Wasn't it last year that the public trans system was shut down as precaution and then nothing to speak of occurred? Or something like that? That said, I think I'm set for groceries, confessing that I bought a few things a day or two ago. Lots of fresh spinach, nearly a full head of cauli and a bag of unopened carrots. Enough teeny tomatoes, too. Some leftovers at the fore, etc., etc. books to read. Though it's pre-"storm," I'll be watching the Met's "Il Trovatore" on channel 13 tonight.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
