May 29

Thursday night! And since TK decided that he doesn't really want to go on the field trip tomorrow we're just going to let him stay home from school :-) Their grade is going to a kinda-sorta theme park type thing. Basically it's like Gatti Town but with bumper boats and arcade games and shit. It was going to cost $30 and they were only going to be there for like 4 hours. So he decided it wasn't really worth it. I kinda wanted to figure out something to go do tomorrow but I haven't thought of anything yet. Maybe like, go hiking or something before TH has to go to work at 2:00. Dunno.

So I got home this morning, got TK off to school, made some breakfast, and watched a couple of episodes of Lost with TH. We only have like 8 or 9 episodes left!! Then we need to find something new to watch. Hmmmm, lol. Went to bed around noon and got up at 8:00. TH did make dinner!! He made a sausage meatloaf type thing and some more jalapeno cream cheese puffs. Nom nom nom :-) And now I'm at work. Yay for almost being the weekend!!

Noms for the day: Breakfast - chorizo and egg breakfast taco on a low carb tortilla. Iced coffee on the way to work. For dinner I brought a couple of jalapeno cream cheese thingies and some meatloaf.

Song: Cake - The Distance. Random shuffle again.

Best thing: I saw last night that Origin is giving away Battlefield 3 and Plants vs Zombies (PC downloads) so I snagged a copy of each one. I don't even know for sure if any of our computers will run them, but now I have it in just case I ever get to upgrade :-)

Worst thing: These fucking little flying bug thingies at work are driving me fucking crazy!! I brought a citronella candle tonight though so hopefully it will help some.

Woohoo.

May 28

Not much going on today. Got home this morning and got TK off to school, tried out a couple of new recipes, watched a few episodes of Lost with TH, and went to bed around 12:30. Got up at 8:00, hung out with TH and TK for a little bit, and now I'm at work. TH got busy and didn't make dinner (sigh) so I brought a salad with tuna to work with me. He swears he's going to cook tomorrow night. We'll see, lol.

So this morning I made a no-bake Jello Cheesecake type thing using lime jello. It was freaking awesome!! I'm thinking maybe next time I might try the almond meal crust like one guy mentioned in the comments. Ohhh, or maybe leave out the jello and add a little cocoa powder...so many possibilities! I also made a batch of chocolate coconut bars (basically Mounds candy bars) since I finally got some unsweetened shredded coconut. Mine didn't turn out nearly as pretty as the ones in the picture because I had a little trouble with the whole dipping process, but they taste amazing!! I mean like, seriously nom! So now I have 2 more easy little treats that I can make :-)

Noms for the day: Breakfast - half a small bag of sunflower seeds and a chocolate coconut thing. Iced coffee and 2 flax buns on the way to work. For dinner I brought a salad with tuna and a piece of the cheesecake stuff.

Song: Soundgarden - Spoonman. Random shuffle.

Best thing: Made some seriously noms!

Worst thing: Stupid boss was late this morning so I ran into extra stupid traffic >:-(

Yep yep yep.

May 27

Welp, it rained and stormed almost all night last night, on my way home this morning, off and on most of the day, and got seriously bad after TH got home, but at least it calmed down long enough for me to get to work. So yay? Right after I got here though it started back up again. I think it's done for now, at least. There's nothing else out there on radar and all of the watches and warnings have expired. So yay!

So I got home this morning and got TK off to school, made some breakfast, and watched an episode of Lost with TH. I tried to go to bed pretty early but I don't sleep well when the weather's bad so I'm kinda tired tonight :-/ Got up a little after TK got home and cooked some meat for tacos. TH stopped by Sam's on his way home for a couple of things (yay for spinach!) and when he got home they had tacos for dinner. Nom :-) And now I'm at work.

Noms for the day: Breakfast - 3 eggs, 3 sausage patties, and shredded cheese. Iced coffee on the way to work. I brought a taco salad (with black soybeans!!!!) and some jello to work with me for dinner.

Song: Lorde - Tennis Court. Random shuffle.

Best thing: Finally bought the Unicorn and Space Cats camos for COD Ghosts. Cause I'm a dork :-)

Worst thing: Bad weather :-/

Woohoo.

May 26

So today is Memorial Day, which meant no school for TK. It also meant holiday pay (time and a half) for TH and I. Yay! So last night ended up being pretty busy with kids running in and out all night. It rained off and on most of the night, too. So far tonight it has been pretty slow, which is nice. I guess everyone's home early because they all go back to work and school tomorrow. At least the drive home this morning was nice and quiet :-)

So everyone was asleep when I got home this morning but TH woke up right after I got there so I hung out with him for a while. Went to bed pretty early but it started storming around 10:30 so I got up for a while. Kinda hard to sleep when it sounds like the apocalypse going on outside, lol. The storms finally stopped sometime after noon and I went back to bed, slept until almost time for TH to get home, made burgers and roasted cauliflower for dinner, and now I'm at work. There's another band of storms headed this way but it's moving very slowly so we may not see anything until later. Probably right about the time I'll be getting off work in the morning. Which will be just lovely :-/ Other than that, not much going on. TK's buddies came by again today and he hung out with them for a while. I'm not 100% sure about these kids - they're kinda obnoxious. I did tell them that they need to start texting him to see if he can hang out instead of just coming over and ringing the doorbell because I'm usually asleep during the day. We'll see if it sunk in or not.

Noms for the day: Cheese, pepperoni, and peanuts for breakfast. A hamburger on a flax bun and roasted cauliflower for lunch. Iced coffee on the way to work. If I get hungry later I brought some leftover cauliflower and some jello.

Song: Portugal. The Man - Purple Yellow Red & Blue. Random shuffle again.

Best thing: We did get lots of rain, which we needed!

Worst thing: Stupid storm kept me awake >:-(

Hooray.

May 25

Sunday night, back at work. And it's the day before Memorial Day so it's like, super freaking busy. Sigh. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. It's raining and storming a little, too. Originally there was like a 30% chance of rain for today and tonight but then it started looking like it would stay out to the west of town. I don't think the part of town where I live is getting anything but out here at work definitely is. I think there's a chance tomorrow too so I guess we'll see what happens.

So Friday morning I stopped by Randall's on my way home and this time they had some of my low carb tortillas. So yay! Got home and got TK off to school, watched an episode of Lost with TH, then we went to Home Depot to look at a new BBQ grill. Originally we had planned on going to Sam's but we got distracted, lol. We ended up going to Lowe's and to HEB to look at grills. He still wants to look around a little bit but I think we've decided on one of the ones at Home Depot. So we picked up a couple of things that we needed from HEB, stopped by KFC for some lunch, and had time to watch a couple more episodes of Lost before he had to leave for work. I took a nap until a little bit after TK got home, hung out with him, made some fajita stuff for dinner so they could have nachos, and when TH got home we watched another episode of Lost for movie night. TH went to bed and TK and I stayed up for a while playing Ghosts then went outside to see if we could see anything from the meteor shower but it was too cloudy. Turns out it kinda sucked though so I guess we really didn't miss anything, lol.

Thursday, May 22, 2014

May 22

Thursday night!! Not really much going on again today. I stopped by Randall's on my way home this morning because they have my awesome low carb tortillas on sale this week. Of course, they were sold out. Sigh. I still picked up some milk and some sugar-free pancake syrup though. So it was worth it, lol. Got home and got TK off to school then messed around a little bit with putting some of the game emulators and games on the big computer. Still awesome, by the way. We made breakfast - eggs, sausage patties, and pancakes!! And they were amazing!! Watched a couple of episodes of Lost with TH, went to bed sometime after noon, and got up at like 7:30. Took a shower, hung out with them for a little bit, and now I'm at work. TH made some more flax buns and a meat and veggie skillet thing for dinner while I was asleep. He and TK went to Target after school and bought some more toys, of course.

So this is Memorial Day weekend. Woohoo, lol. Not sure what we're going to do but I kinda want to go do something. TK is out of school Monday but of course TH and I both still have to work. So I dunno. I think there's a chance for some rain Sunday and Monday. I would kinda be ok with it just raining its ass off all weekend, lol.

Noms for the day: Breakfast - 2 eggs, 2 sausage patties, and 2 flax pancakes. Iced coffee on the way to work. If I get hungry later I have some carnitas stuff that TH made for dinner.

Song: Gorillaz - Clint Eastwood. Random shuffle again.

Best thing: Saw my cop buddy last night! Tonight is the last day he's going to be stuck with his trainee dude so he should be able to come by more often :-)

Worst thing: So....long story short - one of TH's nephews is dead and another one has been arrested for manslaughter :-/ Apparently they were fighting and one of them hit the other one, causing him to fall and hit his head. So that totally, totally sucks :-(

Eh.

May 21

Not much going on today. Got home this morning and got TK off to school, made some breakfast, watched a couple of episodes of Lost with TH, and went to bed. Got up at 8:00, hung out with them for a while, and now I'm at work. And that's pretty much it, lol.

Noms for the day: Spam and egg breakfast tacos (on low carb tortillas) for breakfast. Iced coffee and 2 flax buns on the way to work. If I get hungry later I brought another taco with me.

Song: Santana, Chad Kroeger - Into The Night. Random shuffle.

Best thing: Good sleep today!

Worst thing: My foot hurts for some reason. Dunno why :-(

Hooray.

May 20

So, I got busy last night and didn't get a chance to write. So now it's Tuesday night, yay! Pretty much the same routine yesterday and today though so it's not like we missed anything, lol. Got home and got TK off to school, hung out with TH for a little bit, went to bed, got up when TK got home, and hung out with him until TH got home. Then went to work. Exciting, huh? We had leftovers for dinner last night but tonight I made a cabbage/Spam/alfredo sauce skillet thingie that was really good. Nom :-)

And and and...I have discovered the world of console game emulators!! I mean, I knew they existed but I had never messed with them. So I downloaded a couple of different ones, and a couple of games, and OMG it is the coolest thing ever! So now I can play Nintendo, Super Nintendo, N64, and Game Boy games. That's all that my laptop will run, at least. We managed to get Gamecube games running on the computer at home though. It's freaking awesome :-)

Noms for the day(s): Super keto!!

Song: Cage The Elephant - Take It Or Leave It. A new one!

Best thing: Soooooo many games.... XD

Worst thing: My mom texted me earlier and she was all whiny because she hadn't talked to me in a few days. She doesn't realize I guess that her being so whiny is what makes me not want to talk to her very often :-/

Yippee.

May 18

Sunday night, back at work. Sigh. The schedule here at work changed a little bit so now I get to see my buddy 3 nights a week and the new guy 2 nights a week instead of the other way around. So yay :-) So let's see...not really much going on this weekend. Friday morning I got home and got TK off to school, watched a few episodes of Lost with TH, then we went to Sprouts and HEB for a couple of things. Got home and he left for work and I took a nap until TK got home. We played a little Minecraft then I made chicken fajita type stuff for dinner. We watched a couple of episodes of Lost for movie night, TH went to bed, and TK and I stayed up a little later hanging out.

Saturday we slept kinda late, did some cleaning and laundry, played some Ghosts and Black Ops 2, then I made hamburgers and fries (roasted cauliflower for me) for dinner. TH got home and we watched a couple of episodes of Lost, then he went on to bed. TK and I stayed up until about 3:30 playing Minecraft :-)

Thursday, May 15, 2014

May 15

Thursday night! So totally ready for the weekend :-) They're having a big event out here at the clubhouse so this morning before I left work I had employees start coming in at like 4:30. Should be the same thing tomorrow morning, too. And for some reason it has been busier than shit here tonight, which is awesome :-/ Only about 5 hours to go though. Yay!

So I got home this morning and got TK off to school, watched the season finale of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and a couple of episodes of Lost with TH, and went to bed around 11:00. Got up at 7:00 and we made breakfast for dinner - eggs, sausage, and pancakes. And now I'm at work. When I get home tomorrow if I'm not too tired I think TH and I are going to go running around for a while. Should be fun :-)

Noms for the day: Still not great :-/

Song: P!nk - Just Like A Pill. Random shuffle.

Best thing: Decent sleep today.

Worst thing: Busy at work :-(

Yeehaw.

Wednesday, May 14, 2014

May 14

Not as tired tonight, so yay! And it's Wednesday night so only one day left until the weekend. Double yay! Got home this morning and got TK off to school, watched a couple of episodes of Lost with TH, and went to bed. Got up at 8:00, took a shower, hung out with them for a while, and now I'm at work. Other than that, not much going on.

Last night after I got to work a guy showed up saying he was here to "flock" the clubhouse - that is, stick pink plastic flamingos all over the front lawn. We weren't expecting anything like this to happen, so I wasn't really sure if I was supposed to let them in or not. I decided to go ahead and do it because I figured if it was something the clubhouse had arranged and just forgot to tell us about, if I didn't let them in, I would get my ass chewed. However, if it wasn't something that the clubhouse had arranged and they weren't expecting it, I would still get my ass chewed. But the clubhouse is bad about having shit going on and not letting us know about it! They've had plumbers come in the middle of the night, people showing up early for golf tournaments, and when we had a TV show filming out here some days the whole freaking film crew would show up at like 2 AM with no warning. So I've kinda developed an "anything goes" kind of attitude as far as the clubhouse goes. But I still kinda stressed about it all night. When my boss got here this morning I told him about it and he said he would see what was going on. So I was on my way home and he called to say that he had talked to one of the club employees and yep, it was something they were expecting. So yay, I did the right thing but FUCKING OH MY HOLY FUCK YOU PEOPLE NEED TO KEEP US IN THE FUCKING LOOP!!!!!!! Ahem. So it ended well :-)

Noms for the day: Yeah, we're just not gonna talk about that... :-/

Song: Bleachers - I Wanna Get Better. A new one tonight!

Best thing: No ass chewing!!

Worst thing: Bad keto girl :-(

Eh.

Tuesday, May 13, 2014

May 12

Tired again tonight :-/ It has rained most of the day and we've had a few storms but thankfully nothing like last night! The last estimate I saw said that my part of town got almost 5 inches of rain! Crazy stuff, lol.

So I got home this morning, got TK off to school, watched an episode of Lost with TH, and went to bed. Got up a little bit after TK got home and just kinda hung out with him for a while. TH got home and we made burgers for dinner. Yay.

Noms for the day: Nothing for breakfast. A bunless burger for dinner. Iced coffee on the way to work. If I get hungry later I still have leftovers from last night.

Song: Blink-182 - What's My Age Again?. Random shuffle.

Best thing: Found out that my old boss who left to take the new job is moving back to his home state. TH would still kinda like to get that job so he might have a chance for it now!

Worst thing: Tired :-/

Yay.

Monday, May 12, 2014

May 12

Well, not much going on today. Got home this morning and got TK off to school, hung out with TH for a while, and went to bed. Woke up around 2:00 and couldn't go back to sleep so I just got up. So I'm kinda tired tonight but not too bad. By the time TK got home I had managed to vacuum, put up a load of laundry, and set up a second Minecraft server! The one we have running right now is an older version of the software that supports the Pixelmon mod. So we decided to set up another one that will run the latest version of Minecraft. Now we can play either one :-) He got home and we played some Minecraft until TH got home, we had leftovers for dinner, and now I'm at work.

Oh, and remember those storms that we were supposed to get today? Yeah. It kinda rained off and on throughout the day but by the time I got ready to leave for work the serious shit had started. It was not a fun drive to work :-/ I think they said that we got something like 3 inches of rain in just a couple of hours. There are power outages all over town, low water crossings closed, and it's still raining. Luckily it has slowed down a little but the lightning is still really fucking freaky. Do. Not. Like. >:-(

Noms for the day: Nothing for breakfast. Sausage patties and cheese when I got up. Leftovers for dinner.

Song: The Naked And Famous - Young Blood. Random shuffle.

Best thing: We had ordered another pan from Amazon to make flax buns in but when it arrived we realized that we had ordered the wrong one. So we were going to send it back and order the correct one but Amazon refunded our money and told us to go ahead and keep the one we got!

Worst thing: Scary storm :-(

Eh.

Sunday, May 11, 2014

May 11

So, today's Mother's Day. Yeehaw, right? I texted my mom earlier today to say hi and of course she was kinda whiny. Sigh. TH and TK bought me a Minecraft critter pack and a Lego Movie Unikitty Kechain Light to hang on my backpack. So that was AWESOME!!!!

Let's see...Friday morning I stopped by Randall's on my way home to pick up a few things. Got home and got TK off to school, watched a couple of episodes of Lost with TH, and took a nap. Got up when TK got home and we hung out for a little bit then I made fajitas for dinner. My neighbor buddy came over and we hung out for a little while :-) TH got home and we watched a couple more episodes of Lost for movie night. He went to bed and TK and I stayed up for a while playing Ghosts (for the first time in like, forever)

Thursday, May 8, 2014

May 8

Thursday night!! And for some reason it has been busier than shit here at work, so yeah...that's awesome :-/
Not really much going on today though. It rained just a little bit this morning on my way home and a little bit more later this afternoon, but we didn't get any of the storms that they were calling for. So that's good, lol. So, I was tired when I got home this morning so I woke TH up and went on to bed. My neighbor buddy ended up having to go do stuff so she never called me to come over and hang out :-( I did sleep really well though so I guess that was good, lol. I woke up around 3:30 and TH had gone to pick up TK from the bus stop. They went to Walmart and Toys R Us to look at stuff so I just hung out by myself for a while. They got home and we watched a couple of episodes of Lost before I had to come to work. They had stopped by Taco Bell for dinner so on my way to work I stopped by McDonald's. I had a buy one, get one free burger coupon so I bought a couple of Habanero Ranch burgers. Nom :-)

Tomorrow...I dunno. I should probably stop somewhere on my way home and get some apples for TK's lunch but I haven't decided if I'm going to or not yet. TH went by Sam's today for a couple of things that we needed and we still need a few things from HEB but I'm thinking that if TK and I get out and do stuff Saturday we'll probably do that then. My neighbor buddy said she should be free tomorrow afternoon so she might come over for a while then. Yay :-) Other than that it's just the awesomeness of not going to work!!

Noms for the day: Nothing for breakfast. Leftover broccoli with cheese when I woke up. Iced coffee on the way to work. If I get hungry later I have a couple of (bunless) McDonald's hamburgers.

Song: Nirvana - In Bloom. Random shuffle again.

Best thing: Good sleep today!!

Worst thing: No hanging out with my buddy :-(

Okey dokeys then.

Wednesday, May 7, 2014

May 7

Wednesday night, so only one day left this week! It seems like this has been a really long week for some reason. Dunno. So I got home this morning and got TK off to school, watched the new Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. with TH, and went to bed kinda early. Woke up a little after TK got home and couldn't fall asleep again so I got up. Hung out with them for a while, watched a couple of episodes of Lost, made burgers for dinner, and now I'm at work.

Unless something happens, I'm going to go hang out with my neighbor buddy tomorrow!! Not sure what time yet so if I'm tired when I get home in the morning I may try to get a quick nap first. It should be fun :-) They're also talking about a pretty good chance for rain and storms tomorrow, which might not be so fun :-/

Noms for the day: Nothing for breakfast. Almonds when I woke up. A hamburger patty and leftover broccoli for dinner. Iced coffee on the way to work. If I get hungry later I still have some taco stuff left over.

Song: Rage Against The Machine - Guerrilla Radio. Random shuffle once again.

Best thing: Got my new shoes today! My old ones were still in decent shape but the insides were starting to fuck up, which made my feet hurt. So yay!

Worst thing: Kinda tired but not too bad.

Yeehaw.

Tuesday, May 6, 2014

May 6

Not much going on today. Got home and got TK off to school, hung out with TH for a little while, figured out what was wrong with the Minecraft server (yay!!), and went to bed kinda early. Got up when TK got home and hung out with him for a while, made some keto-friendly cookies, and had leftover taco stuff for dinner. And that's basically it. Oh, it turns out that when we lost power the other day, when the router reset it changed our ip address by one digit. So now if it happens again we know what to look for :-)

Noms for the day: Nothing for breakfast. 3 eggs, 3 sausage patties, and shredded cheese when I woke up. Iced coffee on the way to work. If I get hungry later I have leftover taco stuff.

Song: Britney Spears - Piece Of Me. Random shuffle again.

Best thing: Fixed the Minecraft server!!

Worst thing: Kinda tired again tonight.

Hooray.

Monday, May 5, 2014

May 5

Kinda tired again tonight. I actually went to bed a little early but I didn't sleep very well. Sigh. Got home this morning and got TK off to school, went to bed, woke up when he got home and hung out with him for a while, made tacos and veggies for dinner, and now I'm at work. If I'm still tired in the morning I may try to go on to bed when I get home. Dunno yet.

After I got to work tonight I tried to join our little Minecraft server so I could play with TK before he went to bed but for some reason I couldn't connect. We lost power at the house for about an hour on Saturday so I wonder if when the router reset it fucked up the port forwarding thing. Or something. So now I need to try and figure out what is wrong with it. Lovely, lol.

Noms for the day: Can of Vienna Sausages for breakfast. 2 servings of almonds when I got up. The last of my low carb chocolate ice cream before I left for work. Iced coffee on the way to work. If I get hungry later I brought a container of taco meat and veggie stuff.

Song: Alan Jackson - Chattahoochee. Random shuffle.

Best thing: Met the new guy at work last night. He seems to be nice enough :-)

Worst thing: Stupid Minecraft server fucking up >:-(

Okey dokeys then.

Sunday, May 4, 2014

May 4

Sunday night, back at work. Not really much going on, either. We pretty much just hung out at home this weekend. Friday I went home and went straight to bed, got up when TK got home, had leftovers for dinner, watched a couple of episodes of Lost for movie night, and went to bed kinda early. Saturday we slept a little late, did some laundry and cleaning, played Black Ops 2 and Minecraft for a while, made pizza for dinner, and watched a few more episodes of Lost for movie night. Sunday we basically just hung out all day. Played a little Lego Batman, watched a few episodes of Pokemon and Star Wars The Clone Wars, and had leftovers for dinner again. I tried to take a nap but couldn't fall asleep so I'm kinda tired tonight.

I also had a couple of days last week where I ate some chips and cookies and drank some non-keto friendly alcohol. So I kinda felt like crap after that. I'm back on the wagon again though. Yay, lol.

Noms: Eh.

Song - Ludacris, Rick Ross, Bun B - Down In Tha Dirty. Random shuffle.

Best thing: Saw my neighbor buddy as I was leaving for work tonight. We kinda made plans to get together later this week :-)

Worst thing: Stupid carby stuff >:-(

Yep yep yep.
