It's the last day of the freaking year! Holy crap!! And oh my lord is it busy at work. I swear if I hear "Happy New Year!!" one more fucking time I'm going to drag somebody out of their car and stomp the ever-loving snot out of them. Ahem. Anyway... :-)
So I got home this morning and everyone was still asleep so I played a little Black Ops 2 online. TH got up and we made some eggs and fried up some of our pork sausage stuff for breakfast. It got kinda late so we decided to wait until tomorrow to stuff the sausages. TH mixed together the pork and chicken stuff and added a few more spices and a little beer for flavor. So now we have about 5 1/2 pounds of meat to make into sausages! I went to bed around 11 but didn't sleep very well. Got up around 3:00 and TK and I watched the new Thor movie. I took another quick nap at about 6:30. So I'm a little tired tonight but surprisingly not as bad as I expected.

December 30
Well, while I was at work last night TK managed to fall and sprain his wrist :-( TH iced it down and gave him some ibuprofen and he went to bed. Today it's a little swollen and it hurts some when he moves it but it seems to be getting better. I've been keeping the ibuprofen and ice going all day and TH stopped on his way home to buy a wrist brace. So hopefully it will be a lot better tomorrow. It sucks too because it's his right (dominant) hand so he can't really play video games or shoot or do much of anything. So he's in pain and bored. Poor little butthead, lol.
My boss ended up only being a few minutes late this morning so I got home pretty close to on time. TK's buddy was asleep on the living room couch so I started to go on to bed but TH woke up. I stayed up with him for a little while and went to bed kinda early. Got up around 4:00 and hung out with TK for a while. We watched the South Park movie because he hadn't seen it yet. I forgot how funny it was! TH got home and he had leftover sausage for dinner but I wasn't hungry so I brought some to work with me. If he gets up before I go to bed in the morning we're going to try to stuff the sausages that we mixed up. Should be interesting! And, tomorrow night is New Year's Eve which is going to suck fucking ass. Sigh. TH has a bottle of wine in the fridge that one of his residents gave him. He said I should bring it to work with me. I'm...actually kinda halfass thinking about it, lol. It would definitely make the night go by easier :-)
Noms for the day: Nothing when I got home. 2 pieces of cheddar jalapeno sausage when I woke up. 4 net carbs. Iced coffee with heavy cream and almond milk on the way to work. 1 net carb. 2 ounces of almonds and 3 ounces of cheese when I got to work. 4 net carbs. If I get hungry later I have either 3 more cheddar jalapeno sausage links, or 3 eggs and 3 sausage patties to make an omelette in a bowl. I haven't decided yet. So, good first day back!
Song: Good Charlotte - Girls & Boys. An older one. Yay for random shuffle!
Best thing: Back on keto!
Worst thing: Poor wounded TK :-(
Okey dokeys then.

December 29
So, I kinda slacked off a little bit. Okay, a lot. It has been so freaking busy at work lately, plus I managed to get the Xbox working so I have been playing with TK every night. So I haven't written in a few days. Oh well, lol.
Let's see...Christmas was awesome! TH and TK loved the stuff I got for them. We've been outside shooting the airsoft guns every day so far, and Thursday TH and I used the grinder to grind 4 pounds of pork shoulder and almost 4 pounds of chicken thighs. We seasoned it all up and either tomorrow or Tuesday we're going to try to stuff it into sausages! Should be fun, lol. They got me the big stuffed creeper that makes explodey sounds when you squeeze it, and a couple of My Little Ponies. Oh, and a Hello Kitty beanie hat :-)
Other than that not really too much going on. It's pretty much just been work, sleep, home, and hanging out with TH and TK. We did buy a new game on Steam the other day, Garry's Mod, and we've been playing that for the last couple of days. It's a lot of fun! Definitely worth the $2.49 we paid for it! Steam also gave out Left 4 Dead 2 for free on Christmas Day so we downloaded that but I haven't checked it out yet. We watched the 2nd and 3rd Fast and the Furious movies this weekend and today TH found good copies of the new Hobbit movie and...shit I don't remember. Something else that I've been wanting to see. So we'll have to watch those sometime when we have a chance.

December 24
It's Christmas Eve!!! And holy freaking shit it has been busier than dog shit so far this week. Like, seriously freaking busy. It's a little slower tonight so I finally have a chance to write something. So yay? So let's see...Friday I went to see my mom. We went to Goodwill and Walmart, then got Panda Express for lunch. I stayed and chatted with her for a while, and got home about the time TK got home from school. I had heard that our favorite radio station was doing a remote closeby so I picked him up from the bus stop and we went to check it out and see if we could get a bumper sticker. they didn't have any :-( but we got a couple of coozies :-) Got home and hung out for a while, played some Minecraft, and when TH got home we made nachos for dinner. I was pretty tired so I went to bed kinda early and didn't stay up for a movie.
Saturday we slept kinda late, did some cleaning and laundry, and played some video games until time for TH to get home. We finished wrapping the rest of the presents, too. I made frozen pizzas and we watched Madagascar. TH went to bed and TK and I stayed up for a while playing.

December 19
Thursday night, finally. This has been a short week but it has felt so freaking long. Dunno why. I got busy last night and didn't have time to write. Not really much going on though so I guess it's not that big of a deal. I'm going up to see my mom when I get off in the morning so that should be fun :-/ We're going to go to Walmart to do some Christmas shopping. Woohoo. I'm pretty much done - I just need to pick up a few stocking stuffers. We didn't really want to spend the money on a tree this year so yesterday we hung up some tinsely shit on the living room walls and we're going to hang the ornaments from that. Should be interesting to see if the cats will let it stay up until Christmas, lol. By this morning Snipe had already torn a few pieces off of the one hanging over the door to the hallway. They are total buttheads :-)
Dunno what else, really. Still feeling kinda crappy and pissed off about everything. Sigh.
Song: Jeff Foxworthy - Redneck 12 Days of Christmas. Cause why not, lol.
Best thing: One of the residents gave us all a box of candy and a gift card to Olive Garden for Christmas! I mean, I don't really know that we would go to Olive Garden, but it was sweet anyway!
Worst thing: Still kinda in a fuck everything mood >:-(
Okey dokeys then.

Not much going on today. Got home and got TK off to school, hung out with TH for a little while, and went to bed. Got up a little bit after TK got home and played some Minecraft with him. And now I'm at work. Yep.
Song: Lhugueny - Ghosts The Musical. Parody video for Call of Duty Ghosts.
Best thing: Somebody gave TH a Starbucks gift card and he gave it to me. COFFEE!!!!!
Worst thing: Still feeling all crappy and shit.
Yay.

December 16
Well, shit. Just...shit. It's Monday night and I'm back at work, but at least it's a short week. It was super fucking busy Friday night so I didn't even have time to think about writing. Plus now they're wanting us to count how many people come in every hour, and break it down further by how many residents, guests, and everything else...it's just all fucking bullshit so I've been in a really bad mood. This all has something to do with the raise that we asked for. Basically they're trying to show that the night shift isn't busy enough to deserve a raise. And I kinda think that they're considering eventually getting rid of the night shift all together. You know what? Fuck em. I think I've pretty much decided that if I can get the transfer over to patrol, I'm gonna take it. Just...fuck these guys.
Annnnnnd, I fucked around and went off keto Friday night, and I'm still not back on. So I'm feeling super shitty because of that. So basically just fuck everything right now.
Song: Dope - Burn. How about a nice angry one tonight?
Best thing: The guy here at work brought me a couple of board games that his roommates got for their kid and ended up not needing. He thought maybe TK would enjoy them :-)
Worst thing: All of it, right now >:-(
Yeah.

December 12
Thursday night. So just tonight and tomorrow night and I am off for 2 days! Then next week is a short week, so that will be cool. I talked to my mom earlier today and she wants me to come see her next Friday so we can go Christmas shopping. I'm like, I really don't have any Christmas shopping to do! I think I'm going to go ahead and do it though, because that's TK's last day of school before Christmas and if I wait until after he gets off I'll be stuck having to spend the night. So maybe it won't be too bad.
Stopped by Randall's on the way home this morning and picked up one of the spiral sliced hams that they had on sale for $1.49/lb. That's half price! Dunno when we might cook it but I stuck it in the freezer for whenever, lol. Got home and got TK off to school, made some breakfast, and watched the new Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. with TH. Hung out for a little while then went to bed. I slept until about 8:00 so I'm really not very tired tonight. I'm going to try to go to bed kinda early tomorrow so I can get up and play with TK when he gets home from school. I got an email that the sausage stuffer attachment is at Home Depot now so I may go by in the morning and pick it up. And, the package from Walmart (the airsoft guns and targets) should be delivered tomorrow afternoon. So I can finish getting everything wrapped, and I'm pretty much done!
Noms for the day: Breakfast - 6 little sausages, 2 eggs, and shredded cheese. Iced coffee and 2 ounces of almonds on the way to work. I brought leftover sausages and eggs to work, and if I get hungry later I still have the burger patties from last night.
Song: The Ready Set - Love Like Woe. Random shuffle.
Best thing: The guys at the clubhouse invited us to their employee Christmas party next week! I mean, I don't think I'm gonna go, but it was nice of them anyway :-)
Worst thing: The scale hasn't moved in almost 2 weeks :-/ Dunno if I'm doing something wrong, or what. It's getting a little frustrating >:-(

December 11
Halfway through the week! It's going to be weird coming to work Friday night and staying home Sunday night. There's supposed to be a big party at the clubhouse Friday night but I'm thinking that most people should be there already by the time I get here. Dunno. I think there's a like a 70% chance of rain, too, so that should be fun.
I was kinda tired when I got home this morning so I didn't stay up very late. Got TK off to school, made some breakfast, and just kinda hung out for a while. I got up around 7:00 and TH had made burgers for dinner. So that's pretty much it.
Noms for the day: Breakfast - cheese and pepperoni. Lunch before work - 2 burger patties, shredded cheese, and a chicken leg. Iced coffee on the way to work. If I get hungry later I brought a couple more burger patties, or I still have the carne asada stuff. I should probably go ahead and eat that, lol.
Song: Halo Reach OST - New Alexandria Suite. The music from the Halo Reach level New Alexandria.
Best thing: A little nice quiet time this morning!
Worst thing: Headache, kinda :-/
Yeehaw.

December 10
Tuesday night. After tonight I'm halfway done with the week. Yay :-/ Still cold tonight but not quite as cold as it has been. There were no major ice problems on the way home this morning, but I did run across a few puddles that had frozen over on the roads. So that was kinda exciting. The other guy at work texted me earlier to see if I wanted a little overtime next week. He's supposed to work til 10:00 next Wednesday but he wants to leave at 7:00. So I would come in 3 hours early. If the boss approves it, I figure why not? A little extra cash never hurt. Oh, and TH is working for someone at his site tomorrow, so even though he missed Monday he'll actually end up with 41 hours this week instead of 37 1/2. So that's cool.
Got home this morning and got TK off to school, hung out with TH for just a little while, then went to bed. TK's buddy came home with him but he was only going to stay for a while so I got up and wrapped a couple of TK's Christmas presents. We had already bought him 2 little Transformer dudes, and the box of bb's from Amazon showed up today. He found it on the porch when he got home and brought it inside. I'm pretty sure he thinks it's a Lego set, lol. His buddy left and we played a little Black Ops 2 until TH got home, then had leftover carne asada stuff for dinner. I'm thinking maybe make hamburgers or something tomorrow. Dunno. Since TH is filling in on the early shift he'll be home before TK gets home. So I think I'm going to get TK off to school in the morning and then play some video games BY MY FREAKING SELF!!!! :-)
Saw my old patrol guy buddy last night. He says they have a guy quitting at the end of December, so if I still want to transfer over it's pretty much mine if I want it. I just have to decide!! It would pay at least $1 more per hour, plus there's plenty of opportunity for overtime. Theoretically they are "working on" a raise for us here, but I'm not holding my fucking breath. I've already been here 5 years with out a raise >:-( And it would be something different! But...it would be something different! I'm not great with change :-/
Noms for the day: Nothing for breakfast. Snack when I got up - a chicken leg. Lunch at home - leftover carne asada stuff. Iced coffee on the way to work. If I get hungry later I still have some carne asada stuff here at work, or I have some pumpkin/cream cheese...stuff that I made tonight. It's pretty tasty!
Song: The Toadies - Possum Kingdom. Random shuffle.
Best thing: Box full of bbs!!! Literally. Like, 20,000 of them :-)
Worst thing: They brought us a nice new(ish) chair here at work. But they threw away the little ratty one that I liked :-(
Yay.

December 9
Not much going on today. It was really foggy on the way home this morning but I guess it stayed a little warmer than they were expecting because there were no problems with ice anywhere. It's supposed to be really cold by the time I leave work in the morning, something like 26 or 27, so they're calling for another chance for ice and shit. So we'll see what it looks like by then.
Got home this morning and got TK off to school, made some breakfast, and just kinda hung out with TH for a while. We made chorizo and eggs. I like chorizo, but I really shouldn't have ready the ingredients :-/ I didn't eat much of it because I kept thinking about the pieces of the critter it was made from. Kinda gross. Went to bed not too late and I guess TH started really feeling sick because he stayed home from work. Since he was home I slept until about 7:30, got up and made some tuna to bring to work, and now I'm here. Yay.
Noms for the day: Breakfast - a few bites of chorizo and eggs. Iced coffee on the way to work. Lunch at work - tuna and pork rinds. If I get hungry later I have some leftover carne asada stuff.
Song: J. Roddy Walston and the Business - Heavy Bells. Another new one.
Best thing: Good sleep today!
Worst thing: Sick TH :-(
Hooray.

December 8
Sunday night, again. And, it's the beginning of a long freaking week because I agreed to work Friday night for the other guy here at work. So I'll be off Saturday and Sunday instead. At least that makes next week a short week? Dunno. Hopefully it won't be horribly busy or anything. It's still cold out tonight, but not quite as cold as it has been the last few days. In the morning the news stations are talking about what they called "freezing fog". Apparently it's fog that freezes on contact. Who knew? So there's a chance that there might be a little ice on the roads. I guess we'll see.
So Friday morning it was super cold and it had kinda rained and drizzled all night. I parked up under the overhang here at work but it managed to blow under enough that my car was iced over when I got ready to leave. Fun. There were a few reports of ice on the roads so all of the schools called for a 2 hour delay. I decided to go ahead and stop by HEB on my way home since everyone would be sleeping late. I got home and everyone was awake, so I played a little Ghosts with TK until he had to leave for school. Hung out with TH for a little while and then took a nap. I had ordered something online from Target to be picked up in-store, so I picked TK up from school and we headed over there. We also went by Dollar Tree and bought some wrapping paper. Got home and watched a few episodes of South Park while I made pizzas. TH got home and we watched Red 2. It was as good as the first one :-) TH went to bed and TK and I stayed up playing Black Ops 2. On 2 XBoxes!!! And it was AWESOME!! We got our second copy Friday afternoon :-)

December 5
Finally Thursday night!! And yeah, it got cold. It blew through here about 4:00 this morning and by the time I got home it was already down to about 40. I got home and got TK off to school then just kinda hung out with TH for a while. I didn't really feel like going to Sam's and TH didn't feel like getting out early so he just waited and went later after I went to bed. So that worked. I went to bed kinda late but slept pretty good and got up around 6:00. I played a little Black Ops 2 and some Minecraft with TK until it was time to come to work.
I'm planning on dropping TK off at school in the morning and going by HEB for a couple of things. Still need to pick up my medicine from Walgreen's, too. That is, of course, if the world doesn't ice over in the morning like they're kind of expecting, and they don't cancel school. And if my boss can get here in the morning so I can leave :-/ On one hand it would be kinda cool if everything iced over and they cancelled school, but I really don't want to be stuck here all day tomorrow. There's an even better chance for ice this weekend, which sucks because TH works 7 am-7 pm Saturday and Sunday. So hopefully it will just stay cold, and that's it. No ice!
Noms for the day: Breakfast - cheese, pepperoni, and peanuts. Dinner at home - hot dog in a bowl. Iced coffee on the way to work. If I get hungry later, I stopped by Wendy's on the way here and bought 3 Junior Bacon Cheeseburgers. I'll take the buns off of them and have burger guts :-)
Song: Limp Bizkit - Rollin'. Random shuffle again.
Best thing: Ordered a set of airsoft guns this morning for TK's Christmas present! This is gonna be fun!!
Worst thing: The big boss wants us to start counting the cars that come through here at work on the overnight shift. He wants to "see how busy it is". Presumably this has something to do with the raises we asked for. I have a bad feeling that I'm gonna get fucked on this raise if he decides that 3rd shift doesn't need any more money >:-(
Okey dokeys then.

Presumably this has something to do with the raises we asked for. I have a bad feeling that I'm gonna get fucked on this raise if he decides that 3rd shift doesn't need any more money >:-(
Okey dokeys then.

December 4
Not much going on again today. Right now it looks like the wind shift and the cold front is going to move through just before I leave work in the morning. So that should be fun to drive in, lol. It's all humid and foggy and kinda gross out right now. I think when I get home in the morning TH and I are going to drop TK off at school and go by Sam's for a couple of things. I need to go by Walgreen's and pick up my medicine, too. So there's that.
Got home this morning and got TK off to school then made some breakfast and hung out with TH for a while. We started watching Kick Ass again but I got tired and went to bed halfway through. Got up around 6:00 and TK had gotten his package from Mega Bloks. I don't remember if I mentioned it yet or not, but basically ever since he lost his whole Halo Mega Bloks collection when the house burned down he has been trying to replace any of the stuff that he can. So he contacted them to see if it would be possible to buy replacement figures and stuff for some of the older sets that you can't find in the stores anymore. They said unfortunately, no, but wanted to send him a little something anyway. Well, that "little something" ended up being 3 whole sets! Totally fucking cool :-) I took some pictures but I don't wanna mess with them right now :-P I'll try and post them tomorrow. So we opened them up and messed around with them until it was time for me to come to work. TH made sausages for dinner, and before I went to bed I had mixed up some cauliflower "potato" salad so we had that too. It was good!
Noms for the day: Breakfast - 3 eggs, 3 sausage patties, and shredded cheese. Dinner at home - 3 sausage links, cauliflower "potato" salad. Iced coffee on the way to work. If I get hungry later I still have a container of ham fajitas and cauliflower "rice".
Song: Good Charlotte, M. Shadows, Synester Gates - The River. Random shuffle.
Best thing: Awesome customer service from Mega Bloks!
Worst thing: Cramps :-/
Yay!

December 3
Quiet again today. Although, I did get to work tonight and one of the gates is broken. Again. It's always something, lol. Got home this morning and got TK off to school, then hung out with TH for a little while and went to bed. Got up a little after TK got home and just kinda hung out with him until TH got home. I watched him play the Ghosts campaign on the highest difficulty. It was entertaining, to say the least. I didn't cook anything for dinner so we just had leftovers.
Noms for the day: Breakfast - nothing. Lunch before I left for work - jalapeno cheese bread. Iced coffee on the way to work. When I get hungry later I have leftover ham fajitas and cauliflower rice.
Song: The Airborne Toxic Event - Hell and Back. Heard this on the radio earlier and thought it sounded familiar. It's from the movie The Dallas Buyer's Club, apparently.
Best thing: Scored another copy of Black Ops 2 on Ebay for $16.50, with free shipping. They're still going for $30 used at Gamestop :-)
Worst thing: Cramps :-/
Hooray.

December 2
Not much going on today. Got home early this morning and went straight to bed. TH got up with TK. Woke up when TK got home and we played a little Black Ops 2 and some Minecraft. I made ham fajitas (lol), cauliflower rice, and real rice for dinner. The fajitas actually turned out good! I used all but the last few slices of ham, in case TH wants to have that for breakfast in the morning. So basically we ate ham for 4 days. Not bad :-)
It was warmer today, almost 80 I think. Tomorrow and Wednesday are supposed to be warm again and then Wednesday night/Thursday morning there's another front coming in that's supposed to drop the highs down into the 40's. So that will be nice.
Noms for the day: Nothing for breakfast. A piece of the jalapeno cheese bread, some pepperoni, and some cheese sticks when I woke up. Dinner - ham fajitas with cauliflower "rice". Iced coffee on the way to work. If I get hungry later I have a little bit of the stirfry stuff from last night left over. Still under 20!
Song: diRTy WoRMz - The Hate (That Hate Made). Random shuffle. Love these guys!
Best thing: Got some good sleep today :-)
Worst thing: We found a bundle of Black Ops and a Black Ops 2 hardened edition on Ebay and bid on it. It ended while I was on my way to work and I guess TH forgot to check it. We were outbid by like $2.00 :-(
Woohoo.

December 1
It's the first day of December! Wow. Seems too early, somehow. It didn't help that it was like 75 today, and it's supposed to be right around 80 until Wednesday. Kinda doesn't feel like winter when it's this warm. At least now that Thanksgiving is over everything at work has settled down, for now. I like it much better when it's nice and quiet and not crazy busy!
So it was kind of a quiet weekend. Everyone was still asleep when I got home Friday so I pretty much went straight to bed. TH woke me up while he was getting ready to go to work so I had a really good nap. When he went out to leave, his car wouldn't start so he took mine. TK and I hung out and played video games while he was gone. TH came home with a set of jumper cables that he borrowed from someone and we jumped his car. He took off to drive it around for a little bit to give the battery a chance to recharge. They had frozen pizza for dinner and I had wings. We couldn't really think of anything new to watch so we watched The Fast and the Furious again. TH went to bed and TK and I stayed up kinda late playing Minecraft.

November 28
It's Thanksgiving :-) Today was nice! Got home and everyone was still asleep so I went to bed pretty early. Got up around 4:00 and we started cooking. We cooked the ham and some roasted squash and zucchini. TH made some cornbread and I made the jalapeno cheese bread that I mentioned yesterday and some peanut butter cookies. The bread was really good and the cookies were pretty good but a little dry and crumbly. I may see about making some kind of frosting or something for the leftover ones. While the veggies were finishing up I took a shower then played a little Minecraft with TK. We ate dinner and watched Despicable Me and by the time it was over I had to leave for work. Sigh. But at least it's Thursday night :-) Everyone should still be asleep when I get home in the morning so I'll probably go to bed early and get a little nap in before TK gets up.
It's cool again tonight but still no wind so it doesn't feel too bad. But holy shit is it busy! I am so ready for this whole holiday thing to be over. Next week everything should be back to normal, at least for a few weeks until the Christmas crap starts back up. Sigh. Oh, and a bunch of the stores opened today instead of waiting for Black Friday, so there were people all over the fucking place on my way to work. The Target parking lot was full. Kinda sad, really. "Hey, let's celebrate how grateful we are for everything we have by going out and buying more shit!" Eh, whatever.
Oh, and the kitties thoroughly enjoyed the leftover stuff we cut off the ham :-) They had a big chunk to chew on tonight, and we froze what was left so they can have a treat another day.
Noms for the day: Breakfast - 2 ounces of almonds and 2 ounces of cheese. 4 net carbs. Dinner - Some ham, roasted zucchini and squash, a piece of jalapeno cheese bread, and a couple of cookies. Not really sure. I would say no more than 15 or so, definitely. I brought a little extra ham and veggies with me in case I get hungry later. But, we did Thanksgiving and I stayed keto!
Song: Bowling For Soup - Girl all the Bad Guys Want. I thought about doing a Thanksgiving song but I couldn't really think of one. So random shuffle it is.
Best thing: Nice Thanksgiving, in our new house :-)
Worst thing: Busier than dog shit at work :-/
Happy Thanksgiving!

November 27
I slept a little longer today so I'm not nearly as tired! And it's cold again tonight, maybe even colder than it was last night, but there's not really any wind so it doesn't feel as bad. There's already frost forming on the grass out here and there was a little bit of ice on my car when I left for work. It seems like they said that this is the last super cold night we're supposed to have for a while. I think by next week it's supposed to back up to almost 80 for the high. Crazy.
So I stopped by HEB on my way home this morning. There were already way more people out shopping than there should have been at 7 am! I ended up getting the buy a ham get a turkey free deal. The ham was $2.99/lb but when you figured in the free turkey it ended up being a better deal than the ones on sale at Randall's. Plus I found a coupon for $3 off if you spent $10 on HEB brand items. So I got a 10 lb ham and a 15 lb turkey for like $27.00. That's like, $1/lb, almost :-) Got home and put everything up, then TH and TK got up and we made breakfast and watched the new Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. I think I was in bed by 10:30 or so. Got up around 7:00 and just kinda hung out with them until it was time to come to work.

November 26
Kinda tired again tonight. Busy at work again, too. Sigh. It's still cold and windy but it is a little warmer than last night. I guess they came in and fixed the AC/heater because when I got here it was running. So yay! Not really much going on again today. Got home this morning and got TK off to school then went to bed a little earlier than yesterday. Got up when TK got home and just kinda hung out with him for a while and played a little Black Ops 2. I made chicken and veggies with alfredo sauce for dinner when TH got home.
I'm planning on stopping by HEB on my way home in the morning to pick up a couple of things. We've decided that we're going to get a ham for Thanksgiving and they have a deal where if you buy a ham, you get a turkey for free. I figure it would be nice to have a turkey in the freezer in case we have a week where we're broke and don't really have anything else to cook :-) I think I want to make some kind of dessert too but I'm not sure what yet. I'll figure it out.
Noms for the day: Breakfast - some cheese and pepperoni. 1 net carb. Lunch before work - chicken and broccoli and cauliflower with alfredo sauce. Probably 6-7. Iced coffee - 1 net carb. Dinner if I get hungry later - more chicken and veggie alfredo stuff. Probably another 6-7.
Song: Cake - Long Time. Random shuffle again. I love Cake!
Best thing: I seem to have broken my stall and I'm losing weight again :-)
Worst thing: Tired again.
Yeehaw.

November 25
Not much going on today. It's been busy here at work. All of the kids out here are out of school for the whole week for Thanksgiving so they have nothing better to do than run in and out all night. Should be a fun week :-/ It's cold and windy again but it's not quite as bad as last night since there's no rain. Earlier they said there was a chance for a few snow flurries overnight but I'm kinda thinking that's not going to happen. We'll see, I guess.
So this morning there was no ice or anything on the roads, luckily. I got home and TH was already awake so we got TK up and decided to just take him to school since it was all cold and rainy. We were just kinda sitting there while he was getting ready when we started hearing sirens. Like, lots of sirens, close by. I hopped on the city's traffic and fire incident website to see what was going on and it said that the restaurant across the street from our neighborhood was on fire! We got ready to leave to take TK to school and when we opened the front door you could smell the smoke :-/ By the time we got back they had shut down one side of the main road and there were about 10 fire trucks there. It was kinda trippy. They did manage to get it put out before it could cause too much damage. Later the investigators said that it looks like it was just a random electrical thing. Kinda like our house was. Man, fuck electricity >:-(

November 24
Sunday night again. It has been cold with off and on drizzle all weekend and right now it's raining pretty steadily. There's a slight chance for some ice on bridges and overpasses in the morning but in town it shouldn't be too bad. I am a little worried about my boss being able to get here in the morning though. He lives kinda out a little ways and it's supposed to be colder out that way. I really don't want to be stuck here in the morning if he gets iced in or whatever :-/
So Friday I got off work and headed up to my mom's house. I stopped by HEB on the way there and picked up a few things. Got to her house and basically just hung out until about 2:30. It was ok. Stopped by CVS on my way home and did the peanut butter deal again. It was still cold and rainy and traffic was freaking horrible on the way home. I had kinda planned on trying to get home in time to pick TK up at the bus stop since it was so cold but he beat me home. I hung out with him for a little bit then made pizza for dinner. TH got home and we watched Iron Man 2. I was tired so I went to bed pretty much when TH did.

So...yesterday. Holy crap. Fuck everything about yesterday! Stopped at HEB on the way home and bought some Hot Pockets. Got home and got TK off to school then played a little Black Ops 2. TH got up and we watched the new Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and finished watching Iron Man. I drank 3 of the beers and ate the Hot Pockets and some chips. I went to bed around 12:00 or so. Cool, right? Nope :-/
I woke up at 8:00 puking fucking sick. Like, headache and chills and puking my guts up sick. I tried to eat some hamburger patties and drink some Powerade but only managed to get a few bites down before I puked again. I texted the guy at work to see if he would mind staying a little late so maybe I could get to feeling a little better and he said he would. So I ate a piece of toast and laid back down for a while. I got up at about 11:00 and still felt pretty crappy but I had to go to work. When I went to get my work clothes from where I usually leave them in the game room I discovered that someone had PEED ON MY FUCKING PANTS!! My only pair of pants. And I wasn't about to try spraying them with smelly stuff and wearing them like I did last week. So I dug a pair out of the closet that hadn't been hemmed yet, half-assedly cut them off, and "hemmed" them with packing tape. Yeah. I left for work and thought about stopping somewhere for some crackers or something because I still felt all barfy but realized I left my wallet at home. I did have enough change to get a Sprite, so that helped a little. But I spent the whole night at work feeling shitty, wearing a pair of half-assedly hemmed pants that were just tight enough to be uncomfortable. Sigh.

November 19
Not nearly so tired tonight, yay! My boss was a couple of minutes late this morning so I didn't get home until about 6:45 instead of 6:30. But I went straight to bed, and poked TH so he would get up with TK! I actually slept pretty well and got up when TK got home. I played a little Black Ops 2 (and kicked ass, TYVM!!) while he played some Minecraft until TH got home and I made an alfredo type thing with zucchini noodles, cauliflower, leftover pork roast, and alfredo sauce for dinner.
I stopped at 7-11 on my way to work and bought a bag of chips and some ghetto beer. I'm going to stop on my way home in the morning for some hot pockets, or something like that. So I'm going to do a serious cheat meal in the morning and then get the keto thing back on track. I don't have any more vodka and I don't plan on buying any more for a while, either. So we'll see what happens.
Noms for the day: Nothing this morning. I ate the last piece of cake and a couple of pieces of summer sausage when I got up. I wasn't hungry again before I left so I brought some of the alfredo stuff to work with me.
Song: Ashlee Simpson - Pieces of Me. Random shuffle again.
Best thing: Saw my cop buddy last night! He's been out of town for like 2 weeks so I haven't had anybody to talk to.
Worst thing: Feeling blah for some reason :-/
Hooray.

November 18
Holy crap I'm tired tonight! Stopped at Walgreen's on the way home (more on that later...) then got home at just almost time to wake TK up. TH was already awake when I got there, but of course he hadn't made TK's lunch or breakfast or cleaned up any of the kitchen or or or... Fucking grrrrr. I think he knew I was pissed because he did make us breakfast after TK left for school, so at least there's that. I made a couple more batches of the peanut butter chocolate fat bombs and stuck them in the freezer to set. I ran the dishwasher and we just kinda hung out and ate breakfast until I was pretty much ready to go to bed. I stayed up way too late :-/ While the dishwasher was running I started smelling something burning so I ran in the kitchen to check it out. The lid to one of the tiny little containers had fallen down into the bottom of the dishwasher, landed on the heating element, and started melting its way through >:-( We finally managed to get most of the smell out of the house but the dishwasher still smells like burning plastic. Sigh.
So I went to bed and got up a little after TK got home. We played some Ghosts for a while then watched a few more episodes of South Park. TH stopped at CVS on his way home and bought some peanut butter. They had it on sale 2/$5, and if you spent $10 you got a coupon for $3 off your next purchase. Plus we had some manufacturer's coupons, so basically he ended up paying $1.17 per jar. Sweet! I have a CVS card too so I'll stop one day later this week and do the same deal again. I had forgotten how awesome coupons can be :-)

Sunday night again. Sigh. It got hot today, though! I think they said it hit like 90 or so. There's supposed to be a front coming through tonight that will drop the temperature a little bit. Tomorrow it's "only" supposed to be like 78 :-/ I'm kinda ready for the cold to get here and stay!
Not much going on this weekend. Friday I stopped at Randall's on the way home and picked up a couple of frozen pizzas. Got home and got TK off to school then made brownies and a relatively keto-friendly chocolate cake for TK's birthday. The cake actually ended up being really good! Watched a movie with TH then took a nap. TK's buddy came home with him so I slept a little bit late. Got up and played a little Minecraft with him then TH got home and we had leftovers for dinner and watched Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief. And had birthday brownies/cake :-) TH went to bed and TK and I stayed up until about 2:30 playing Minecraft and stuff.

November 14
I did it! I went to the movie tonight :-) And I actually had fun. It was crowded, so it was a little uncomfortable, but not too bad. The movie itself was actually pretty good. It was The Dallas Buyer's Club. It was set in the 80's and it's about this cowboy dude who finds out he has HIV and all of the stuff he does trying to get meds to treat it. I don't know that I would pay movie theater prices to see it, but I would definitely rent it from Redbox. I thought it was opening this weekend or something and this was just an early showing but it turns out it doesn't open until like January and this was like a prescreening or something. There was a rep from the studio there asking what people thought about it afterwards. So that was kinda cool.
So I got home this morning and got TK off to school, hung out with TH for a while, watched a movie, and went to bed later than I really should have. Sigh. Got up at like 4:30, took a shower, and had dinner. TH made stuffed jalapenos again and we nuked a couple of frozen hamburger patties. I went to get dressed to go to the movie and had laid my clothes on the bed, and Snipe jumped up there and peed on my fucking clothes!! He got my work pants and the T-shirt I was going to wear to the movie. Fucker >:-( Now, I really only have the one shirt that looks decent and fits the way I like, so I wear it any time I go somewhere. And he fucking peed on it, like 20 minutes before I was supposed to meet my friend at the movies. So I had to dig out another, smaller shirt, that honestly fits well and looks good but it feels like it's suffocating me because all of the other shirts I wear are so baggy. So I wore that shirt and just sprayed some stuff on the spot on my pants so I could wear them tonight. And now smelling the stuff is giving me a headache :-/ I almost just said fuck it and didn't go, but I'm glad I didn't.

November 13
I slept a little better today but I'm still kinda tired. Got home this morning and TH actually woke up before TK did. So I didn't really have any quiet time at all. Sigh. Got TK up and off to school, and since it was so nice and cool I walked most of the way down to the bus stop with him. It was awesome :-) Got back home and made some breakfast, finished watching The Wolverine, and watched the new Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. with TH. It was so cold that all the kitties were inside all morning. I was sitting on the floor with a blanket and I had three of them curled up around me :-) Went to bed around 11 and got up at 8. We had leftovers for dinner but I wasn't hungry so I brought some to work with me.
My neighbor buddy texted me and said that she won passes to the new movie The Dallas Buyer's Club for tomorrow night at 7:00. I think it's like a two hour movie but I'm thinking about going and just leaving a few minutes early so I can get to work on time. It should be fun! Normally with something like this I would kinda want to go but then talk myself out of it and then try to come up with some reason I couldn't. So yay!
Noms for the day: Breakfast - 3 sausage patties, 3 eggs, and shredded cheese. 2 net carbs. Iced coffee - 1 net carb. Lunch at work - summer sausage, cheese, and almonds. Probably about 7 or so. Dinner if I get hungry later - either leftover chicken fajita stuff or leftover pork roast with broccoli. So either way I'm good.
Song: Arctic Monkeys - Do I Wanna Know?. Random shuffle.
Best thing: Went for a (COLD!!) walk this morning with TK :-)
Worst thing: Tried to make the chocolate peanut butter fat bombs again, but left out the peanut butter and added extra coconut oil and some SF caramel syrup. It...didn't work. When they cooled off the chocolate and the oil had separated so there's like, a layer of brown and a layer of white :-/ I wonder if maybe I didn't get the mixture hot enough to melt it all together?
Yeehaw.

November 12
So once again the whole "go home and go to bed early" thing didn't work. And I am fucking tired tonight. Sigh. Got home and got TK off to school, cleaned up the kitchen and started the pork roast in the crockpot, then cleaned up a couple of spots where my wonderful little shithead kitties had peed. Fuckers >:-( TH got up and he made some breakfast while I vacuumed and straightened up the living room and dining room. I think I made it to bed a little after 10, and got up when TK got home. We played some Minecraft for a while then when TH got home we had the pork roast stuff for dinner. I had seasoned it and let it cook most of the day then for the last hour or so I added a chopped onion and some frozen broccoli. It turned out really good!
The cold front came through before I went to bed and it was cool and windy all day. Right now (midnight) it is 37, with a windchill of 31! TH stopped at Home Depot on his way home and bought a couple of those hose bib covers just to make sure they don't freeze. I hope the kitties keep their stupid little asses inside all night where it's warm. It is cold outside, but it's awesome :-)
Noms for the day: Breakfast - 3 eggs, half a can of Spam, and shredded cheese. 7 net carbs. Lunch at home - shredded pork roast with broccoli, onions, and shredded cheese. Maybe 6 or so? Iced coffee - 1 net carb. Dinner if I get hungry later - the salad I didn't eat last night :-)
Song: The Killers - When You Were Young. Random shuffle again.
Best thing: Nice and cold out!!
Worst thing: Tired :-(
Okey dokeys then.

November 11
Holy crap I'm tired tonight. I wasn't tired when I got home this morning (of course) so I played a little Black Ops 2 until TH woke up. I tried to wake TK up early but apparently he stayed up most of the night because he did not want to get up, lol. TH and I made breakfast and just kinda hung out for a while. TK finally got up and I went to bed around 10:30 or so. I woke up at about 4:00 and couldn't go back to sleep so I just got up. I played a little Ghosts with TK then made chicken fajita type stuff for dinner. I used about half of the chicken thighs that I had cooked over the weekend and froze the other half to use later.
I had almost forgotten that I also put a pork roast down to thaw so I'm going to throw that in the crockpot when I get home in the morning and let it cook all day. Probably get TK off to school and then try to sleep. We're supposed to have a serious cold front blow through sometime tomorrow morning and the lows for the next few days are going to be in the 30s! It's gonna be awesome :-)
Noms for the day: Breakfast - 2 eggs, 2 pieces summer sausage, shredded cheese, and an avocado. Probably 5 or so. 1 serving almonds - 2 net carbs. Chicken fajita stuff with veggies - no more than 8, probably. Iced coffee - 1 net carb. Dinner if I get hungry later - salad. Probably about 5. Yay!
Song: Nirvana - Lithium. Random shuffle today.
Best thing: Maybe kinda lame, but I got a 2.91 k/d in an online Black Ops 2 game this morning. For me that's like, fucking awesome :-)
Worst thing: Tired :-/
Hooray.

November 10
And another week begins. Woohoo. Not much going on this weekend. Friday morning there was a wreck that knocked down some power lines on my route home so I had to detour around the long way. Luckily there wasn't much traffic that early because by the time they finally opened the road at like 9 am traffic was fucked. Got home and got TK off to school then went by HEB for a few things. TH was up when I got home so we hung out and drank some coffee then went to Walgreen's for some cheap toothpaste and to Sam's. Got home and hung out with him until he had to leave for work and thought about taking a nap but got distracted. I threw some thawed out chicken thighs in the crockpot to let them cook all day. By then it was really too late for a decent nap so I played a couple of campaign levels in Ghosts and went to pick up TK at the bus stop. We went to Sonic for a half price drink, stopped at another Walgreen's for some more toothpaste, and went by CVS because they had frozen pizzas on sale. I had a coupon, too, so we ended up paying about $5.50 for two of them. Not bad! Got home and watched a few episodes of Transformers Prime until TH came home, then made nachos and watched We are the Millers. It was actually pretty good! I was tired so I went to bed when TH did. I think TK stayed up a little later.
Saturday we slept kinda late then went to Dollar Tree, Target, and Toys R Us. We bought 5 pairs of cheap headphones at Dollar Tree because TK keeps destroying the ones he uses. We looked at toys at Target and they had some small (about 8" or so) plush Minecraft critters for $10. We bought a Creeper and an Enderman. They are so freaking cute!! They also had a big Creeper that actually makes the little explodey noise but he was like $40 :-/ These are awesome, though. At Toys R Us we finally found the Call Of Duty Mega Bloks sets! I let TK get 2 of the smaller sets. They were $12 but on sale buy one get one 40% off, so that worked. He got the AGR and the little snowmobile. They're pretty neat. Got home and played some Ghosts multiplayer, getting our asses kicked once again. I just can't seem to get used to the faster kill times on this game :-/ TH got home and I made the frozen pizzas for TH and TK but really didn't feel like making a keto one for me so I just nuked some frozen wings. I also baked 2 packages of chicken drumsticks and stuck them in the freezer after they were done. Nom :-) We watched The Wolverine. Well, most of The Wolverine. We got about halfway though and it started lagging really bad. TH was pretty much falling asleep, so I shut it down and went to bed and he fell asleep on the couch, lol.

November 7
Thursday night!!! It's nice and cool out again tonight. I think they said it got down to like 40 this morning! I rode home with the window down and my hand hanging out. It was awesome :-) It was cool enough when I got home that all of the kitties were inside the house. Wusses, lol.
So this morning I got TK off to school then played some more Ghosts until TH woke up. We made breakfast and watched a movie and I went to bed around 1:00. I got up at about 8:00 and TH had made the roasted veggie and sausage stuff for dinner. Nom. So I stayed up later than I probably should have but I'm not super tired, so that's good. I must have slept pretty soundly, too, because apparently TK came home from school with three buddies and TH said they got pretty loud, lol. I still need to see if he has invited everyone he wants for his birthday. It's next Saturday and we're thinking about doing a game night/sleepover kind of thing. Should be fun, right?

November 6
Not much going on today. It's nice and cool out, which is awesome :-) It actually did end up raining for a few hours this morning but then cleared up once the front blew through. So I went home this morning, got TK off to school, made a frittata thingie for breakfast, watched the new Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. with TH, played a little Ghosts, and went to bed. I did a few games of multiplayer (and got my ass kicked) and started the campaign. So far I like the campaign. Multiplayer...I'm not too sure about. You seem to die a lot more quickly than in Black Ops 2. I never played multiplayer in MW 2 or 3 so I don't know if that's just the way Infinity Ward's COD games are or not. It's gonna take some getting used to though.
I slept pretty decent. Got up around 8:00 and TH had made hamburgers for dinner. He actually cooked the entire box of frozen hamburger patties so they would be easy to heat and eat later. So we have like, 30 cooked hamburgers in the freezer :-) I think he's going to make another sausage and roasted veggie thing tomorrow night. I need to thaw out some meat to throw in the crockpot. Cooking up chicken or pork roast or whatever, bagging it up, and freezing it for quick meals later has been working really well. We tend to eat a lot of meat and veggie stir fry type things that way.
Noms for the day: Breakfast - frittata with eggs, mushrooms, peppers, onions, jalapenos, pepperoni, and shredded cheese. Maybe 8 or so? Iced coffee on the way to work - 1 net carb. Lunch at work - 2 hamburger patties with shredded cheese and mayo. 2 net carbs. Dinner if I get hungry later - leftover frittata. Probably another 8 or so. Still doing good!
Song: Clint Black - Good Run of Bad Luck. Cause why not?
Best thing: Nice and cool out!!
Worst thing: Cramps :-/
I guess that's pretty much it?

November 5
We have Ghosts!!! And holy crap am I freaking tired tonight, But we have Ghosts!! And it is fucking awesome (so far, at least). So of course I wasn't sleepy when I got home this morning so I got TK up and off to school, hung out with TH for a while, made some breakfast, and went to bed around 10:00. TH actually went to Gamestop before he went to work and picked up the game for us so we didn't have to get out and do it this afternoon. That was so sweet :-) He also bought us each a set of dog tags, which are pretty cool too. I got up when TK got home and we messed around with the game for a while. Really all we had time to do was check out the character and create-a-class settings and play a couple of games of local multiplayer. I love the fact that there is so much character customization! They have 4 or 5 different guys and 4 or 5 different girls to choose from. I get to be a girl now :-) I like! We tried out 3 of the maps and they're all awesome.
I think TK was going to start the campaign after I left for work. I know that you have to finish the campaign to unlock the Extinction game mode, which is kinda like Zombies in Black Ops 2 except ALIENS!!! I may start on it when I get home tomorrow morning since I can stay up later and sleep later because TH will be home. Dunno yet though. I know TH wants to watch the new Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. so probably do that first, then see how tired I am. It's probably safe to assume that one of TK's buddies will come over after school tomorrow so they can play Ghosts.

November 4
Holy crap I'm tired tonight. Got home this morning and got TK off to school then just kinda hung out with TH for a while. We made breakfast and played with Snipe and stuff. I didn't get to bed until around 11:00. I woke up when TK got home but since he had a buddy with him I went back to sleep for a while. Got up and played a little Black Ops 2 then made some dinner after TH got home. I made a pork chop, mushroom, zucchini, bell pepper, and onion stir fry type thingie with alfredo sauce. It turned out well :-)
Snipe is doing even better today! The swelling in his foot is all but gone, and there's just a little swelling left in his leg. He's even putting it down when he walks. He's still limping a little but he actually puts weight on it now. And he acts completely normal. Well, normal for him, which is kinda weird. I'm so happy!! We also bought some over-the-counter ear drops for Naga because we were pretty sure she had ear mites. We've doctored her three times now and her ears look almost completely clear! So yay for that, too!

Oh fuuuuuck. I was so not ready to come back to work tonight. It was a good weekend, though! Thursday I went home and got TK off to school, dropped my car off to get the oil changed, then TH and I went out and messed around for a while. We went by Salvation Army to see if they had a good headboard, looked at a couple of dollar stores, and went to Walmart for some stuff that we needed. Stopped by Papa Murphy's on the way home and picked up a couple of pizzas for that night. Got home and watched a movie until TK got home, then played a little Black Ops 2 with him until it started getting dark. TK left to go find his buddies and TH and I sat outside eating vodka gummy bears and handing out candy. It was fun :-) We actually ran out of candy! TK got home and the neighbor came by for a little while. My buddy from work ended up having to work so he didn't come over. After she left we started watching a movie but gave up halfway through and went to bed.
TK begged to stay home from school Friday so we let him since we were up so late Thursday night. Yeah, that was probably bad :-P We all slept kinda late Friday morning then I hung out with TH til he had to leave for work. TK and I played some Minecraft and Black Ops 2 and just kinda hung out while he was gone. He got home and we had leftover pizza for dinner and watched the last Resident Evil movie. He went to bed and I stayed up a little later playing with TK.

October 30
It is raining. I mean, holy fuck it is raining. It started earlier this afternoon and by the time I left for work it was raining so hard I could barely see to drive. I'm sitting here at work listening to the police scanner. They're closing low water crossings and intersections, and they've got Starflight out there fishing people out of their cars and shit. There's one neighborhood where they've had to start evacuating people because of the rain. So holy shit :-/ It's supposed to keep it up through mid-day or so tomorrow but then clear out for tomorrow night. So yay!
So I got TK off to school this morning and then took Snipe to the vet. We decided to check out a new one that is right here by the house. I thought they opened at 7:30 but apparently it's drop off only that early and the doctor doesn't get there until 9:00. They're walk-in only so I went ahead and checked in so I would be first in line at 9:00 then went back home for a while. Went back at 9:00 and got him checked out. Turns out that he has some kind of infection from that scratch or whatever it is on his leg. He has a little fever and it's still pretty swollen. The vet gave him a shot to help with the fever and swelling and a 2 week antibiotic shot (like the one he got when he had that UTI) that should knock it out. She said we might start seeing improvement by tomorrow. So I really hope so :-/ When we got home he went outside for a while and fell asleep behind the trash can outside. TH said once it started raining he came in and pretty much just slept in a box in the living room the rest of the day. I guess the meds made him sleepy?

October 29
One of my oldest nieces (she's a twin) had her second baby this morning! She has a little girl who is not quite a year old, and now a little boy. They sent pictures - he's cute! But man, she's gonna have her hands full! These are my brother's kids. I'm trying to remember exactly...I think my oldest nephew is 22, she and her sister will be 21 next month, my youngest niece is 18 or 19, and my youngest nephew is 14. He's like, 2 months older than TK. Wow, lol.
So I went home this morning and got TK off to school, then TH and I made breakfast and watched the second Resident Evil movie. I went to bed later than I probably should have and woke up a little bit after TK got home. We played some Black Ops 2 until TH got home, then hung out with him until it was time to go to work. I didn't cook dinner, we just kinda scrounged. It worked though :-)

October 28
I think maybe, just maybe, I'm starting to feel better. I still kinda have a cough and a runny nose but I don't feel like I'm absolutely going to die anymore. So yay! I wasn't super tired when I got home this morning so I got TK off to school, made some breakfast, and went to bed fairly early. I got up a little while after TK got home and we played some Black Ops 2 multiplayer. They're doing double XP until Ghosts comes out on November 5th so that helps you rank up faster :-) TH got home and I made a sausage/broccoli/zucchini/mushroom thingie for dinner. It was good!
Other than that not really much going on. Snipe is still limping but it looks like the swelling in his leg might be going down a little bit. I hope so :-/
Noms for the day: Breakfast - 3 sausage patties, 3 eggs, and shredded cheese. 2 net carbs. Lunch at home - sausage scramble stuff. Probably no more than 8 or so. Iced coffee - 1 net carb. Dinner if I get hungry later - spinach with a little bit of the sausage scramble stuff. 6, maybe? So under 20 again :-)
Song: AWOLNATION - THISKIDSNOTALRIGHT. Another new one.
Best thing: TH ordered me a new component switcher box from Amazon and it showed up today! We have the PS2 and the Super Nintendo hooked up to the only AV ports on the TV so this lets us switch back and forth between the 2. It's awesome :-)
Worst thing: Baby Stupid's still hurt :-(
Okey dokeys then.

Noms for the day: Breakfast - 3 sausage patties, 3 eggs, and shredded cheese. 2 net carbs. Lunch at home - sausage scramble stuff. Probably no more than 8 or so. Iced coffee - 1 net carb. Dinner if I get hungry later - spinach with a little bit of the sausage scramble stuff. 6, maybe? So under 20 again :-)
Song: AWOLNATION - THISKIDSNOTALRIGHT. Another new one.
Best thing: TH ordered me a new component switcher box from Amazon and it showed up today! We have the PS2 and the Super Nintendo hooked up to the only AV ports on the TV so this lets us switch back and forth between the 2. It's awesome :-)
Worst thing: Baby Stupid's still hurt :-(
Okey dokeys then.

October 27
Kind of a blah weekend :-/ Got TK off to school Friday and went to HEB, then when TH got up we went to Sam's. He left for work and I took a quick nap until TK got home. We played some Black Ops 2 until TH got home then watched The Heat. It was pretty funny! TH went to bed and TK and I stayed up for a little while.
Saturday we slept pretty late and had planned on running around a little bit but I just didn't feel like it. We played a little Minecraft then I made pizzas before TH got home. We watched the first Resident Evil movie again. TH went to bed and TK and I stayed up for a little longer then I went to bed. I didn't sleep very well though - I kept waking up for some reason. It stormed for a while and most of the kitties came in to sleep with us. They're not crazy about storms either.

October 24
Thursday night!! So they fixed the AC/heater here at work, but now...nah just kidding. Nothing else is broken (for now, lol). Went home this morning and got TK off to school then made some breakfast and watched a movie with TH. We watched The Internship. It was actually kinda funny! Went to bed around 11 and got up at 8:00. TH made an alfredo meatloaf for dinner. I bought some to work with me and it is really good :-)
I think I'm going to get TK off to school in the morning and go by HEB for some stuff. Then when TH gets up we'll probably go to Sam's and we need to go by Petco or something for some ear drops for Naga. I'm pretty sure she's got ear mites :-/ Hopefully the over the counter stuff will be enough to knock them out. I am not looking forward to holding her down and fucking with her ears though :-/
Noms for the day: Breakfast - 2 eggs, 2 hamburger patties, and shredded cheese. 2 net carbs. Iced coffee on the way to work - 1 net carb. Lunch at work - 2 slices meatloaf. 6 net carbs. If I get hungry later I also brought some spinach with tuna, shredded cheese, and mayo. So way under 20 for the day!
Song: The Neighbourhood - Afraid. Another new one.
Best thing: Thursday night!!
Worst thing: Still feeling crappy :-/
I guess that's pretty much it.

So, they fixed the gates here at work, but now the AC/heat is fucked up. You just can't make this shit up, lol. It's cool enough for me not to need the AC, and I don't use the heat, but I feel bad for the other guys :-/ Last time it broke it took like 2 weeks for them to fix it. Sigh.
Went home this morning and got TK off to school then made breakfast and watched the new Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. with TH. Hung out with him for a while and went to bed around 10:00. I got up at 6:00 and we made hamburgers, roasted cauliflower, and stuffed jalapenos for dinner. Nom :-) Other than that not much going on. I still feel kinda crappy :-/ Thinking about going to bed a little earlier tomorrow. Dunno yet.
Noms for the day: Breakfast - 3 eggs with leftover buffalo chicken stuff. Probably 5 or 6 net carbs. Lunch when I got up - 2 hamburger patties with cheese, roasted cauliflower, and 4 jalapenos stuffed with cream cheese and bacon. Maybe 12 or so? Iced coffee on the way to work - 1 net carb. If I get hungry later either a can of tuna or some cheese, pepperoni, and almonds. So 0 or 4. Still doing good!
Song: Trapt - Headstrong. Random shuffle.
Best thing: Thought we were out of sinus meds but I found another box in the linen closet. Yay for drugs :-)
Worst thing: Bird flu... :-(
Yeehaw.

October 22
So I just realized that yesterday made 200 posts on here. Yay? Yay, lol. I'm feeling a little better tonight, still crappy but not as bad as yesterday. I got TK off to school this morning, grabbed a quick snack and a cup of tea, and went to bed kinda early. I woke up when TK got home and we played a little zombies and some Minecraft. TH got home and I made this buffalo chicken dip for dinner. Only, I didn't have any chicken thawed out so I used some shredded pork roast. It was good, though!
Hiccup seems to be doing fine! His tail hasn't bled any more and he's not acting like it hurts him or anything. He and Moose have slept with me for the last few days. It does seem like he's spending a little more time in the house, though. I still wonder what happened :-/

October 21
So, the little bit of a sore throat has turned into a full-blown crappy sore throat/coughing/sinusy thing. Sigh. I'm taking some Tylenol sinus and drinking some hot coffee right now. That seems to be helping a little. It should at least get me through tonight so I can sleep all day tomorrow.
Stopped at Randall's on my way home this morning for milk, eggs, apples, and chips for TK's lunch. TH was up when I got home so we got TK off to school and made some breakfast. Hiccup came in with a bloody tail and we had hell getting our hands on him to get a good look at it. I'm not sure what happened but he managed to get it cleaned up pretty well and the bleeding finally stopped. Of course he managed to bleed everywhere so we swept, mopped, and vacuumed. I went to bed a little late and woke up when TK got home, but I felt shitty so I went back to sleep. Got up around 7:30, drank some coffee, and just kinda hung out til it was time for work.
Noms for the day: Breakfast - 2 eggs, hot and spicy Spam, and shredded cheese. 7 net carbs. Lunch after I got to work - 2 ounces almonds, 2 ounces pepperoni, and 3 ounces cheese. 4 net carbs. I have some leftover chicken fajita stuff and spinach for later but I'm not sure if I'm going to eat it or not. It still smells and tastes fine but it's kinda bugging me that I cooked that chicken last Saturday. That's like, 9 days ago. Wonder how long chicken is good for in the fridge? :-/ Anyway - less than 20 for the day :-)
Song: Disturbed - Indestructible. Random shuffle again.
Best thing: TH made breakfast and vacuumed this morning!
Worst thing: Poor hurt Hiccup :-(
Yeah.

Sunday night again. Sigh. Not much going on this weekend. Friday I went home and got TK off to school, watched a movie with TH, and went to bed. TK woke me up when he got home and we played a little Minecraft. I made chicken fajita stuff and we had nachos for dinner. We watched Despicable Me 2. It was cute! I stayed up a little later with TK then went to bed.
Saturday we slept kinda late then played some Black Ops 2 and Minecraft. I did a little cleaning and laundry. TH got home and we watched Elysium. It was pretty good too. He's not doing the pool thing on Friday nights anymore so we can do two movie nights if we want to :-) TK's buddy came over about halfway through to spend the night. TH went to bed and I stayed up a little later playing on my phone before I went to bed.

October 17
Finally Thursday night! I got to work a few minutes early tonight because I was late last night. It's not quite as cool as it has been but it still feels nice. I have the door open :-) I think there's supposed to be another front this weekend that will drop the temps down a little lower. I can't wait!
Went home this morning and got TK off to school then just kinda hung out with TH for a while. I went to bed fairly early and got up a little after TK got home. Played a few games of zombies with him and had leftovers for dinner. That's pretty much it.
Noms for the day: Breakfast - 1 egg, 2 sausage patties, and shredded cheese. 1 net carb. Lunch - spaghetti squash with butter and parmesan cheese. About 7 net carbs. Iced coffee on the way to work - 1 net carb. Dinner at work - leftover spaghetti squash, chicken, broccoli, and alfredo sauce. Probably 10 or so net carbs. So I'm good :-)
Song: Stone Sour - Through Glass. Random shuffle.
Best thing: Thursday night!!
Worst thing: Headache :-/
Yay.

October 16
So, I was late for work tonight >:-( There was a wreck just past one of the entrances to the neighborhood out here and it took me 45 minutes to go the last 2 miles to work. Crazy. I'm here now though, so yay! It was cool all day and it's still cool tonight but it's supposed to warm up some tomorrow. I'm kinda ready for it to get cold and stay cold for a while!
Went home this morning and got TK off to school. It had started raining before I left work and it was still raining pretty hard so I gave him a ride down to the bus stop. TH woke up and we made breakfast and watched the new episode of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. I likes :-) Stayed up kinda late then went to bed. The cable guys came by sometime in the afternoon and they fixed the freaking internet!! Turns out there was a loose connection back in the junction box in the backyard. That would explain why it seems to go out every time it rains really hard. So they were all loud and shit, which woke me up. I was able to get back to sleep pretty easy though. Woke up around 8:00 and just kinda hung out until it was time to come to work.
Noms for the day: Breakfast - eggs, pepperoni, spaghetti squash, spinach, avocado, and shredded cheese. Probably around 7 or so net carbs. Iced coffee on the way to work - 1 net carb. Lunch at work - pepperoni, cheese, and almonds. 5 net carbs. Dinner if I get hungry later - either a salad or leftover spaghetti squash, broccoli, and chicken alfredo. So either way it should be around 20 for the day.
Song: Walk the Moon - Anna Sun. Random shuffle again.
Best thing: We can haz internets! Which coincidentally, is the name of our wireless network :-)
Worst thing: Stupid traffic jam :-/
Woohoo.

October 15
Pretty quiet again today. The cold front that they had been talking about blew through just before I came to work, so it's nice and cool and windy :-) It dropped from like 80 down to 55! It's awesome. Still haven't really seen much of the rain that was expected though. I think the front slowed down a little bit so it should be here later tonight.
So I went home this morning and got TK off to school then just kinda hung out with TH for a while. I went to bed a little later than I probably should have and got up when TK got home. We played with his little Halo Mega Bloks dudes for a while and then I made dinner. Chicken and broccoli with alfredo sauce, and spaghetti squash!! It was freaking awesome. One average sized squash made a huge plate full of "noodles". We have a whole container full left over, and TH wants to try cooking some of it as "hash browns" with eggs in the morning. I think I wubs spaghetti squash :-)

Not much going on today. Got home this morning and everyone was still asleep so I went to bed pretty early. TH and TK made breakfast and tried to wake me up but I wasn't ready, lol. So I had leftover bacon when I got up. The internet had started working again before TH left for work but he had already called Time Warner and they were going to send someone out later. TK and I played some zombies until TH got home, then the Time Warner guy showed up and messed with stuff a little bit, and when he left the internet wasn't working anymore. Sigh. So they're supposed to come back out tomorrow and fuck with it again.
Noms for the day: Didn't really manage to keep track, but I'm sure I was around 20.
Song: Sixpence None the Richer - There She Goes. Random shuffle.
Best thing: Saw my cop buddy again :-)
Worst thing: Stupid internet >:-(
I guess that's pretty much it.

October 13
It rained this weekend. Like, holy shit seriously rained. Actually Friday and Saturday it just kinda sprinkled off and on all day but Saturday night it started raining and stormed all night. They said that some parts of the city got as much as 12 inches overnight! Crazy. There were road closures and stuff all over town. They even ended up cancelling the last day of that music festival because it flooded the park where it was being held. I think there's still a decent chance of rain all this next week, too. Wonder if this means our drought might be over?
So Friday I went home and got TK off to school, then when TH woke up we went to check out Trader Joe's. It was kinda neat. I found almond meal for $4.99/lb. It's usually like $8/lb everywhere else. They also had jars of unsweetened natural peanut butter for about $2.79, which is really cheap. Other than that though, there didn't seem to be too much that would make it worth going out of the way to go there. I'm kinda disappointed :-/ We went by Sam's and picked up some stuff that we needed, and while we were there we happened to walk past the cell phone display. They had a 16 gig iPhone 4S on sale for $.96 so we decided to upgrade TK from the 3GS he had been using. He was pretty excited when we gave it to him that night :-) We got home and ate some lunch, then TH went to work and I played around with TK's new phone getting it all set up and everything. TK got home from school and we played a little Black Ops 2 and some Minecraft until TH got home, then hung out with him for a while. I hadn't taken a nap so I went to bed pretty much when TH did.

October 10
Well, we decided to wait until tomorrow to go running around. I got TK off to school then TH and I just kinda hung out for a while and watched a movie. I did do a load of laundry and vacuum, so at least that's something. Went to bed kinda late, got up around 8:00 and TH had made burgers for dinner. Yay!
I'll probably get TK off in the morning and go by HEB for a few things before TH gets up. Then I think we'll go check out Trader Joe's and go by Sam's. That music festival is going on again this weekend but I'm kinda thinking that if we go early enough we shouldn't run into too much traffic. Hopefully :-)
Noms for the day: Breakfast - almonds, cheese sticks, and a couple of Slim Jims. 6 net carbs. I melted a square of baking chocolate, added a little Equal, and mixed in some whipping cream for kind of a mousse type thingie. 4 net carbs. Lunch before work - 2 hamburger patties, 2 slices of cheese, pickles, and spinach. 4 net carbs. Iced coffe on the way to work - 1 net carb. Dinner if I get hungry later - spinach with leftover alfredo pork chops and veggies. 5 or so net carbs. So right about 20.
Song: Lorde - Team. Another new one.
Best thing: It's Thursday night!!
Worst thing: Kinda tired.
Yeehaw.

October 9
Another quiet day. Got TK off to school and played a little Black Ops 2 until TH got up. Made some breakfast and hung out with him for a while then went to bed. Got up a little after TK got home and played some Minecraft with him. We made fajita type stuff for dinner with some of the carne asada I had frozen. It was good :-) Tomorrow I think TH and I are going to go check out the new Trader Joe's and go get the stuff we need from Sam's so that should be fun.
Noms for the day: Breakfast - 2 eggs, 4 sausage patties, shredded cheese, and avocado. 5 net carbs. Dinner - carne asada with fajita veggies, broccoli, sour cream, and shredded cheese. 5 net carbs. Iced coffee with unsweetened chocolate almond milk on the way to work - 2 net carbs. Dinner at work - salad with spinach, dressing, shredded cheese, and green olives. 4 net carbs. So even if I add some of the cocoa roasted almonds later (which are fucking awesome, by the way), I'm still under 20 for the day!
Song: Halo Reach OST - Long Night of Solace Suite. Plays during the Halo Reach level Long Night of Solace :-)
Best thing: Kicked some butt in Black Ops 2 this morning.
Worst thing: Cramps, still :-/
Yay.

October 8
Bored tonight. Kinda tired, too. Dunno why. Well, maybe not tired, really. Sleepy. I drank my iced coffee earlier so it should kick in pretty soon, lol. Not too much going on again today. Went home and got TK off to school, hung out with TH for a while, and went to bed. I woke up when TK got home but he brought a couple of buddies home with him so I just went back to sleep for a while. Got up and made a pork chop and broccoli stir fry type thing with alfredo sauce for dinner. Nom :-)
So, I have worked security at the site I'm at now for just over 5 years. Kinda depressing, I guess :-/ Anyway, when I got hired on here it paid $10/hour, and they pretty much told me that there had never been a raise out here so don't count on one. They were right. Every year the security company negotiates a new contract with the client, and yep we've never gotten a raise. So this year we decided to actually ask for one. We've written up a little proposal and everything. But now our boss at the security company wants to know how much we're asking for. And we have no idea how much to ask for! I think we've decided to ask for $2.00 or $2.50. Sigh. That sounds like a lot, and it kinda is all at once. But if we had been getting a raise every year like most people do we would probably be making that much by now. Dunno. A raise would be fucking awesome! I'm not holding my breath for anything though.
Noms for the day: Wasn't hungry this morning before I went to bed so nothing then. 2 cheese sticks when I woke up - 0 net carbs. Lunch - pork chops with broccoli and alfredo sauce. 9 net carbs. Iced coffee - 1 net carb. Dinner if I get hungry later - the salad I didn't eat last night :-) 8 net carbs. Maybe even some almonds later. So below 20 for the day. Yay!
Song: Saliva - Click Click Boom. Found this song the other day and now I have downloaded every Saliva song I could find :-)
Best thing: TH stopped on his way to work and renewed my registration :-)
Worst thing: Cramps :-(
Okey dokeys then.

Not much going on today. Went home and got TK off to school, hung out with TH for just a little bit, and went to bed pretty early. Got up when TK got home and we played Minecraft for a while. When TH got home I pulled some shredded pork roast out of the freezer and stir-fried it with some broccoli and cauliflower for dinner. And now I'm at work. Yay.
It's nice and cool again tonight! It was chilly enough this morning that TK was looking for a jacket, lol. I think it's supposed to stay pretty much like this for the next week or so. I like :-)
Noms for the day: I wasn't hungry when I got home so I just went to bed. Breakfast when I got up - 4 slices of turkey pastrami, 2 slices of cheese, 6 pieces of bacon, and a couple of pickles. 8 net carbs. Iced coffee with almond milk on the way to work - 1 net carb. Lunch at work - pork roast with broccoli/cauliflower and shredded cheese. 7 net carbs. Dinner if I get hungry later - salad with spinach, shredded cheese, green olives, and dressing. 8 net carbs. So 23 for the day. I figure keeping it under 25 is good!
Song: The Heavy - How You Like Me Now?. Another new one.
Best thing: Saw my cop buddy tonight :-)
Worst thing: Fucking dog behind us is really getting on my nerves. He had been barking for like an hour when I left so I drove past their house. They weren't even home! So they are just letting the little fucker sit out there and bark while they're gone >:-(
Hooray.

October 6
Sunday night again. Sigh. I woke up kinda early and only took a short nap so I'm a little tired. Not too bad though. The neighbors were assholes all weekend, which was fucking awesome >:-( The dog back in the corner barked almost all weekend. The one neighbor next door was dogsitting again so that dog barked off and on most of the weekend. Somebody cranked up their music Saturday afternoon and it was still going at like 2:00 am when I went to bed. Somebody else started their music up at like 10:00 this morning, and when they finally stopped somebody else started up. So yeah - fucking awesome >:-(
So Friday I stopped by HEB on the way home and picked up a few things. Got home and woke TK up kinda late so I just took him to school. Stopped by Walgreen's and bought some ketostix so I could make sure this diet is working the way it's supposed to. It is :-) Got home and hung out with TH for a while, then we set up some of the Halloween stuff! He left for work and I took a short nap, then got up when TK got home. Played with him and just kinda hung out til TH got home. They had Hot Pockets for dinner and I had some frozen (not boneless) wings. Not bad :-) I was tired so I went to bed when TH did and I don't think TK stayed up too much later.

October 3
Another quiet day. Went home and got TK off to school, hung out with TH for a while, then went to bed kinda early. I got up early but TK's buddy came over again so I just kinda hung out with TH until it was time to come to work. We did have time to watch a movie, at least. Yay.
Tomorrow I'll probably get TK off to school then go by HEB for a few things. I should probably also go renew the registration on my car since it did expire 3 days ago :-/ They just opened a new Trader Joe's and I kinda want to go check it out but there is a huge music festival in the area starting tomorrow so traffic is gonna suck. So I dunno. Maybe we'll just set up the Halloween stuff since we haven't done that yet.
Noms for the day: I wasn't hungry this morning so I just went to bed. When I got up I made a "breakfast bowl" - scrambled eggs, turkey pastrami, spinach, avocado, and shredded cheese. 4 net carbs. Iced coffee with almond milk and some cheese on the way to work - 2 net carbs. Lunch after I got to work - tuna salad with spinach, mayo, shredded cheese, and sliced pickles. 2 net carbs. Dinner if I get hungry later - the other half of the breakfast bowl from this morning - 4 net carbs. So about 12 or so for the day.
Song: Lhugueny - Origins The Musical. For the last Black Ops 2 zombies map, Origins. It's supposed to kinda explain the whole zombie thing.
Best thing: It's Thursday night!
Worst thing: My eyes are all itchy tonight :-/
Woohoo.

October 2
Bored tonight. Went home this morning and got TK off to school then played a little Black Ops 2. TH woke up early because they tried to call him in to work (he didn't go, lol) so he watched me play for a little while then made breakfast. Hung out for a while then went to bed kinda late and woke up around 8:00. We didn't cook dinner or anything so I brought leftovers to work. Other than that not really much going on.
Noms for the day: Breakfast - 3 eggs, Jalapeno Spam, shredded cheese, and half an avocado. 9 net carbs. Iced coffee with almond milk on the way to work - 1 net carb. Lunch at work - 2 ounces almonds, 2 ounces pepperoni, and 3 ounces cheese. 4 net carbs. Dinner if I get hungry later - leftover hamburger patties and broccoli/cauliflower with cheese sauce. Maybe 6 net carbs? So still around 20 or so for the day :-)
Song: Fitz and the Tantrums - Out of my League
Best thing: I just feel good today!
Worst thing: Found out that the blue "low carb" Monster I drank yesterday has 7 per can! I guess I confused it with the blue Rockstar? That's what I get for not reading labels :-/
Yep yep yep.

October 1
It's October! Yay :-) So I left work a few minutes early this morning and dropped my friend off at the airport. I actually got home about the same time I normally do but since I knew TH had an alarm set to get up with TK I fell asleep on the couch. They woke me up when they got up so I just went on to bed. I slept pretty well but I had weird dreams all day. Got up when TK got home and we played some zombies and Minecraft. TH got home and we made hamburgers with fries for them and garlic cauliflower for me. Now I'm at work. Eh.
Other than that not really much going on. I'm still kinda tired so I don't know if I'll stay up and do stuff with TH in the morning or just go on to bed. We'll see.
Noms for the day: Went to bed early so I didn't eat anything this morning. Snack when I woke up - 2 leftover stuffed jalapenos and a sausage link. 3 net carbs. Dinner - Hamburger patty with a slice of cheese and some cauliflower. 3 net carbs. Iced coffee with almond milk on the way to work - 1 net carb. At work if I get hungry later - 2 more stuffed jalapenos, a sausage link, another hamburger patty, and the rest of the cauliflower. 9 net carbs. So no more than 16 for the day. Nice :-)
Song: David Ball - Thinkin Problem. Random shuffle again.
Best thing: Played with TK for a while! We hadn't played in a few days.
Worst thing: Tired. Seems like I shouldn't be but I am :-/
Woohoo.

September 30
Wow, it's the last day of September! TH is off this Wednesday and Thursday so I think we're going to try to set up the Halloween decorations. I can't wait :-) Tomorrow morning when I get off I'm taking a friend to the airport and then I may try to go to bed a little earlier than I did today so I can get up and play with TK a little before I go to work. We haven't had a chance to play very much lately :-/
So I went home this morning and got TK off to school, cleaned up the kitchen, made breakfast, then TH and I watched the series finale of Breaking Bad. It was good! It probably ended about the best way that it could have. Went to bed a little late and woke up after TK got home. His buddy came over again(!) so they played and I just kinda hung out. I don't really mind - he seems like a good kid. I would kinda rather have them hanging out here than off somewhere else, anyway. Made cream cheese stuffed bacon-wrapped jalapenos, sausage links, and broccoli/cauliflower in cheese sauce for dinner. Nom nom nom.

September 29
Kinda tired tonight. I got up around 10:00 and didn't really have time for a nap so I'm dragging a little bit. I drank my iced coffee and took a caffeine pill so hopefully that will wake me up a little. I had a couple of SF Monsters in the fridge at home but I forgot to grab one. Boo.
So Friday morning I got off work and went up to my mom's house. I stopped on the way there and bought some Monsters and a bag of pork rinds because I was hungry. She was awake when I got there so we hung out for a little while and then I took her to Walmart. I got some non-refrigerated type stuff that we needed, and I found a couple of really cute pairs of earrings. One of them is supposed to be Halloween themed - it's a pair of black kitty cats! I'll wear them any time though, lol. Got finished up there and she wanted to go to Subway for lunch because they have the $5 footlong deal. And, I was right - you can get any sub as a salad but it's like $7. Uh, no. I had heard about Carl's Jr. having a low-carb burger so I looked them up and there was one close by her house. So I got a lettuce-wrapped bacon cheeseburger for about what a sandwich would have cost. Nom nom nom!

September 26
Thursday night again :-) I'm going up to see my mom when I get off in the morning, but after that it's the weekend!! I should be more tired than I am but for some reason I'm not. Dunno. Went home this morning and got TK off to school then played some more Black Ops 2 until TH woke up. Made breakfast, hung out for a while, and went to bed around 11 or so. I woke up just before TK got home and couldn't go back to sleep so I played a few games of zombies with him until his buddy came over. Hung out with TH for a while and started watching a movie but I stopped at 7:30 to take a quick nap. So I only slept for like 5 hours total but I feel pretty good. Yay!
Dunno what else. My mom wants to go to Subway for lunch tomorrow because they have any footlong for $5 right now. I know I can get a salad but something tells me that a salad is going to be more expensive than a freaking sandwich. We'll see, lol.
Noms for the day: Breakfast - 3 eggs, 4 slices of Spam type stuff, shredded cheese, and avocado. 14 net carbs (the Spam type stuff was a lot higher than I realized. Oops.) 2 cheese sticks when I woke up - 2 net carbs. Iced coffee and almond milk on the way to work - 1 net carb. Dinner if I get hungry later - pepperoni, cheese, and almonds. 6 net carbs. So, a little over but still not bad.
Song: Dope - Die Mother Fucker Die. Obviously NSFW, lol. Somebody was just telling me about these guys last night. I downloaded all of their stuff. I like :-)
Best thing: I've seen my cop buddy 2 days in a row now. He's cool :-)
Worst thing: Didn't sleep much today so I'll probably be tired tomorrow :-/
Okey dokeys then.

September 25
Wednesday night. The week's almost over, yay! Went home this morning and got TK off to school then played some Black Ops 2 until TH woke up. I don't know what is going on but lately I've been doing unusually well in online multiplayer. Maybe I'm actually getting better? Dunno, but I like it :-) Made some breakfast and hung out with him for a while. I ended up going to bed around noon. Jim Bob slept with me for a while again! Got up around 8:00 and just kinda hung out until it was time to come to work. I should probably try to go to bed a little earlier tomorrow so maybe I can play with TK a little before work. He has had a buddy come over after school every day this week though so I guess he's not missing me too much, lol. I talked to my mom last night and I'm going to go see her when I get off work Friday morning. Sigh. I'm only going to spend the day though, because I need to be back when TK gets home from school around 4:00. So maybe it won't be too bad.
Noms for the day: Breakfast - 4 sausage patties, shredded cheese, sour cream, and scrambled eggs mixed with shredded brussels sprouts. Probably around 9 net carbs. Iced coffee with almond milk - 1 net carb. Lunch when I got to work - 2 ounces almonds, 2 ounces pepperoni, and 4 ounces cheddar cheese. 4 net carbs. Dinner at work if I get hungry - salad with spinach, dressing, and shredded cheese. about 5 net carbs. So still under 20 for the day :-)
Song: Smosh - Ultimate Assassin's Creed 3 Song . Pretty funny!
Best thing: I feel much better than I did yesterday!
Worst thing: Kinda tired. Not bad though.
Yeehaw.

September 24
Well, I don't feel crappy anymore but I am kinda tired tonight. I went to bed later than I should have and got up when TK got home. Sigh. So I went home this morning and got TK off to school then hung out with TH for a while after he got up. Last night I updated my phone to ios7 so I messed around with that for a little bit. Went to bed around 10:30. TK came home by himself but his buddy showed up a little later. I played a little Black Ops 2 with them then just kinda hung out by myself for a while. I made dinner before TH got home - sliced pork chop and veggie stir fry with roasted brussels sprouts. I wasn't hungry so I brought some to work with me.
I definitely do feel better, and my leg cramps are gone! I think the potassium stuff is working. I have started adding a little to food, and I made another bottle of water with it today using a Crystal Light lemonade packet. That was much more tolerable!

September 23
So I'm tired tonight, and kinda achy. I stopped on my way home this morning and bought some salt substitute stuff to use as a potassium supplement. It...tastes like ass :-/ I'm not sure how I'm going to use this stuff. I've seen where some people just mix it in with water and drink it but that was disgusting. Right now I've got a 32 ounce bottle of water with some of that, some regular salt, and a couple of packs of Crystal Light type stuff and it's still pretty gross. I'm going to have to choke it down though because I haven't been getting enough potassium since I started keto. Hopefully I can find a better way to do it, though :-/
So I went home this morning and got TK off to school, then TH woke up and we made breakfast and watched the new Breaking Bad. Only one episode left! Then we need to find something else to watch together. It's fun :-) Went to bed and woke up when TK got home but he had a buddy with him so I just went back to sleep for a while. TH woke me up when he got home and we heated up some pork chops for dinner then just kinda hung out until it was time to come to work. Eh.

September 22
It was a good weekend :-) Friday morning I stopped at Randall's on my way home and bought some brownies for TH's birthday. It started raining before I got home so I got a little wet. Got home and got TK off to school then played a little Black Ops 2 until TH got up. We hung out and drank coffee for a while then went to a couple of different thrift stores to look for a headboard. We didn't find one, but I found a cute picture to hang in our bathroom. It has frogs and turtles and stuff on it :-) It was still fun to just go somewhere together and mess around. We got rained on quite a bit, too. I remembered that I still had a Restaurant.com gift card so we went to a new little Mexican food place. I got a fajita plate, no tortillas, and a salad on the side instead of the rice and beans. It was really good! Stopped at HEB on the way home to pick up a few things and got home just in time to pick TK up after he got off the bus, since it had started raining again. We got some serious rain!
We played poker for a while then gave TH his birthday presents. We bought him 2 Transformers Animated Vehicon Jets (Jeticons). He has a couple of the car versions but the jet ones were only released in Japan, and they're pretty expensive. So he was completely and totally surprised to even get one! We did good :-) He played with them for a while and then we watched The End of The World. It was a little silly, but pretty good. I hadn't had a nap at all so I went to bed when he did, around 9:30 or so.

September 19
Feeling better today :-) I think I might finally be almost over this! Went home this morning and TK was asleep on the new couch. He said he wanted to see how comfortable it was, lol. Emptied the dishwasher, made his lunch, and straightened up the kitchen a little. Got him up and ready to go and TH actually woke up while he was eating breakfast. Got him off to school and we made breakfast, watched a movie, and just kinda hung out for a while. I wasn't very sleepy again this morning! Went to bed around 12:00 and got up about 8:00. I wasn't really hungry so I brought dinner to work with me.
Tomorrow is TH's birthday! I'm going to stop at Randall's on the way home and get him some brownies. He likes their brownies. I had planned on making him some but I really haven't had a chance to. After TK goes to school I think we're going to go check out Salvation Army and Goodwill to see if we can find a headboard and/or a couple of nightstands. Then...I dunno. He doesn't have to go to work tomorrow, so yay! We can do 2 movie nights :-) We still have a couple of frozen pizzas, so they can have that but I need to figure out something low-carb friendly for me. It's been almost a week :-)

September 18
Still feeling crappy, but maybe not quite as bad? Dunno, it's hard to tell. Went home this morning and TH actually woke up before TK did! Got TK off to school and we made breakfast then just kinda hung out for a while. I was tired, but not really sleepy so we decided to go over to Salvation Army and look at the furniture. We found a nice matching sofa and loveseat set! I meant to take a picture but I forgot :-/ It's beige microfiber type stuff and dark brown leather/vinyl/whatever on the bottom and sides. It's pretty! It was a really good price, too, because there were a few scratches on the back of the couch. We're putting it against the wall though so we didn't care! Other than that it's in really good shape - kinda looks like it wasn't even used very much.
So we paid for it and decided to see if we could borrow the neighbor's truck to go pick it up. Stopped by the liquor store for some vodka :-) and Walgreen's for some more sinus meds. Got home and hauled the old couch and chair out to the curb, borrowed the neighbor's truck, and went to pick the new stuff up. We stopped and filled her truck up with gas, too :-) Moved the new furniture inside, vacuumed, took a shower, had a (small) drink, and went to bed at about 1:30. Got up around 8:00 and now I'm at work. Eh. I saw that somebody had picked up the chair but the couch is still there. We have bulky item pickup next week but I hope somebody grabs it before it gets rained on. It's still in decent shape.
