March 24

Not much going on today. Got home this morning and got TK off to school then went to bed pretty early. Got up when TK got home, swept, took out the trash, and played Pixelmon with him until almost time for TH to get home. Made a cabbage/chicken buffalo alfredo skillet thingie for dinner. It was good :-) Tomorrow I need to try to go to bed as early as I possibly can because I have to go to freaking jury duty. Sigh. I'm supposed to be there at 1:30 so I'm trying to figure out how early I need to leave to get there on time. It doesn't help that the courthouse is downtown and parking fucking sucks, either. There are supposed to be like 20 spots reserved for jurors but I'll bet they fill up fast. So it could get interesting :-/

Noms for the day: Nothing for breakfast. Chicken skillet stuff for dinner. Iced coffee on the way to work. If I get hungry later I still have some leftover keto pizza here at work.

Song: Pharrell Williams - Happy. TK has been listening to this song constantly lately. It's finally starting to grow on me, lol.

Best thing: Actually slept pretty well!

Worst thing: Found out tonight that the guy here at work who has been out sick for like 3 weeks is definitely not coming back :-(

Woohoo.

March 23

Sunday night again. It was hot Friday and Saturday but a front blew through today so it's kinda windy and cool again. It's nice :-) I think there was like a 40% chance of rain but we never got any here in town. A couple of places further out got a little bit. Not nearly enough to have any effect on the lakes, though. We need for it to rain for like a week straight, then maybe we can finally break this stupid drought and get the lakes filled back up.

So Friday morning I got home and got TK off to school, made some breakfast, and watched 3 or 4 episodes of Lost with TH. He left for work and I took a nap until TK got home. We played some Black Ops 2 for a little bit then I made nacho stuff for dinner. I had started some pork for carnitas in the crock pot before I went to bed so we had that on the nachos. After I pulled it out of the crock pot I threw in some chicken thighs to cook in the leftover juices. Now we have about 4.5 pounds of cooked chicken to use for dinners all week :-) TH got home and we watched Anchorman 2. Well, part of Anchorman 2. TH fell asleep about halfway through it and I just gave up. There were a few funny parts but it was really just kinda stupid :-/ After that I was still tired so I went to bed when TH did.

March 20

Finally Thursday night! The other guy here at work called in sick for this afternoon so our boss stayed late and I came in 2 hours early. Yay, overtime? I told them that if he's still sick when he's supposed to come in tomorrow night I could work for him but I'm really hoping I don't have to. I mean, the overtime would be nice but I'm really ready for my weekend :-/

So this morning on my way home I stopped by HEB for a couple of things. I probably would have waited until Friday but we were completely out of bread and TK always takes a sandwich for lunch. So I had to do it today. Got home and got TK off to school, made breakfast and watched a couple of episodes of Lost with TH, and went to bed a little late. Got up early and came to work early and that's pretty much it for the day.

Noms for the day: Breakfast - 3 eggs, 3 sausage patties, and shredded cheese. 3 net carbs. Iced coffee on the way to work - 2 net carbs. If I get hungry later I brought some cheese and pepperoni, or I still have tuna left over from last night.

Song: Hot Hot Heat - Oh Goddamnit. Random shuffle again.

Best thing: There's a resident here at work who has been saying he was going to buy me a college-themed beanie hat (the golf course in the neighborhood out here is affiliated with the local university, so our uniforms and hats match the team colors). He brought me one today! So sweet :-)

Worst thing: Long night at work :-/

Okey dokeys then.

March 19

Holy crap I'm tired tonight. I slept about 6 hours but I guess that wasn't enough to make up for yesterday. Yesterday I only got about 4 :-/ So yesterday morning I got off work, stopped for some coffee, and went to pick up my mom. We went over to the hospital, which is on the other freaking side of town from where any of us live. And of course traffic sucked. My sister was asleep when we got there so we woke her up, lol. The NICU didn't open for the day until 10:00 so we hung out with her for a while, took her downstairs so she could get out of the room for a little bit, and got some more coffee. She was doing fine - still in some pain but able to get up and move around a little. So that was good to see! When it was finally time to go see the baby only one of us at a time was allowed to go in with my sister so our mom sat in the waiting room while I went first. I didn't get to hold her but I could touch her and stuff. She's so cute and so freaking tiny!! I took some pictures, of course. Our mom went in with her afterwards and they were gone for freaking ever! I seriously almost fell asleep in the waiting room. We left pretty quick after that, I dropped my mom off at her house, and got home at almost 3:00. Slept for a while, went to work, and was tireder than shit all night. Sigh.

This morning I went home and TH was up so I went straight to bed. Got up around 1:00 and watched a few episodes of Lost with TH. TK got home and we just kinda hung out until it was time for me to come to work. So other than that not too much going on.

Noms for the days: Stayed keto!

Song: Toby Keith - Should've Been a Cowboy. Random shuffle again.

Best thing: Both my sister and the baby seem to be doing well!

Worst thing: Tired :-/

Eh.

March 17

Monday night. So I never heard anything else from my mom last night about my sister so I went home and went straight to bed. TH got TK up and off to school. I slept until TK got home then we played Pixelmon for a while. Sonic had a half price deal on cheeseburgers today so TH stopped on his way home and bought us burgers. Nom :-)

My mom texted me after I got up today and said that my sister had her C-section this afternoon. The baby is in the NICU right now because it's having some breathing problems but other than that everything seems to be ok. So yay! After I get off in the morning I'm going to go pick up my mom and we're going to go see them. Oh yeah! It's a girl - they're going to name her Emily :-) They already have 2 boys so I'm sure she's happy! And supposedly she got her tubes tied while they were at it because they seriously don't need another kid. But that's a whole different story...

Noms for the day: Breakfast - a couple of pieces of cheese. 1 net carb. Some almonds, cheese, and pepperoni when I woke up - 4 net carbs. If I get hungry later I brought 2 bunless cheeseburgers with me.

Song: The White Stripes - My Doorbell. Random shuffle.

Best thing: Seems like nothing wrong with my sister or the baby!

Worst thing: Stupid St. Patrick's Day people at work >:-(

Hooray.

March 16

Sunday night again. Sigh. Another cold front blew through this morning - it's not really terribly cold, but it is windier than fuck out there. I actually woke up fairly early today and I didn't take a nap before I came to work but surprisingly I'm not too tired! Not yet, at least. And, today was TH and my anniversary!! 15 years, if you can believe it. And we haven't killed each other yet, lol. It sucked though because on Sundays he works from 7-7 and then I leave for work at 9:00. So we really didn't get to see each other very much :-(

So Friday I got home from work and everyone was still asleep so I went on to bed. TH woke me up before he left and TK and I got out and did some stuff. I took him to get a haircut and he looks so freaking cute now! We went by Toys R Us to check out the new stuff, stopped by Sprouts for some TVP crumbles and flax meal, and went by Randall's for a couple of things. I bought 4 24 ounce beers - I drank one Friday night and one Saturday night! And the other 2 will sit there until next Friday night :-) Got home and played some Pixelmon, then I made a frozen pizza for TH and TK. I had wings :-) TH got home and we watched the new Robocop movie. It was actually pretty good! I was tired so I went on to bed when he did.

March 13

Holy shit I am freaking tired tonight. I think I got about 4 hours of sleep. Maybe :-/ And I am so fucking ready for this week to be over, and for everyone to go home, and all of the little shits to go back to school. Not mine though. I like having mine home :-) But between Spring Break and that stupid fucking music festival there are way too many people running around. I kinda need to get out and do a few things this weekend but I really don't want to leave the house. Sigh. Oh and last night some drunk guy ran into a crowd of people downtown who were waiting to get into a show. He killed 2 people and injured like 23 more. So that fucking sucked :-(

So it has been so busy at work that by the time I really had a chance to write, I was just like...fuck it, lol. Plus last night I ended up playing PC Minecraft with TK most of the night. We finally fucked around with that old laptop enough to get it to run Minecraft! And then we spend all day today trying to figure out how to set up our own Minecraft server. And I do mean all day, lol. That would be why I'm so freaking tired tonight :-/ But we did it! We even managed to find the older version of the server software so that we could set it up as a Pixelmon server! We're so fucking smart, lol.
