Well, I feel slightly less like dogshit than I did yesterday, so that's something. Went home this morning and drank a cup of tea and then went to bed early. Like, TH got up to get TK off to school kinda early. I didn't sleep great, but at least I slept. I have noticed too that since I've started drinking more water I get up to pee a lot more. Kinda annoying. I woke up a little after TK got home. He brought another one of his buddies home with him after school and they hung out in the game room for a while. I wrapped TH's birthday presents and made some dinner. Laid back down at about 8:00 for a (very) short nap. Now I'm at work. Eh. I meant to leave early enough to stop at Walgreen's for some more sinus meds but I didn't. I'll probably stop on the way home in the morning because I think I have one dose left and I'm probably going to need it tonight :-/
Noms for the day: Breakfast - 2 ounces of pepperoni, a slice of cheese, and a cup of tea with a little almond milk. 1 net carb. Iced coffee with almond milk on the way to work - 1 net carb. Lunch (after I got to work) - pork rinds dipped in tuna with mayo, relish, boiled eggs, and celery. 2 net carbs. Dinner (later at work) - either stir-fried pork chops with zucchini, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, and shredded cheese (9 net carbs), or a salad with spinach, dressing, pepperoni, shredded cheese, green olives, cucumbers, and celery (8 net carbs). So without any other snacks I'll end up with either 12 or 13 for the day. Yay!

Best thing: I feel a little better?
Worst thing: Urk, blah....
Hooray.

September 16
I feel like absolute dogshit :-/ I guess I managed to catch the sinus crap that TK has been fighting off. Sucks. So I went home this morning and got TK off to school, made some breakfast, drank a cup of tea, watched Breaking Bad with TH, and went to bed. I didn't sleep very well because of the stupid sinus shit so I got up a little after TK got home. We played a little Minecraft until TH got home, and he actually cooked dinner because I was feeling so crappy. And now I'm at work feeling crappy, and it has rained off and on for a while, so everything is all humid and gross and squishy. I am not having a good day :-/
Seriously thinking about going straight to bed when I get home in the morning. TK's lunch is already made and the coffee is set up so all I would have to do would be make sure TH wakes up in time to get TK off to school. Guess I'll see how I feel in the morning.

Sunday night. Back at work, and as of tonight I have officially started my little keto thingie. Yay! I didn't eat dinner before I left home so I brought a salad with spinach, ranch, shredded cheese, green olives, cucumber, pepperoni, and a boiled egg. I also brought a container of frozen broccoli/cauliflower/carrots, some butter, and 2 boneless pork ribs. I packed a few cans of vienna sausages, a container of almonds, a box of Slim Jims, and a bag of salt and vinegar pork rinds to stock my little cabinet here at work. Oh, and some boiled eggs. I made an iced coffee with 2 packs of sweetener and some unsweetened vanilla almond milk to drink on the way to work and I ate the salad when I got here :-) And now I'm drinking water. I figure I might have a diet soda every now and then, but I'm going to try to drink mostly water. I did buy some sleepytime tea to drink in the mornings before I go to bed, since I'm going to go without the alcohol for a while. So I would say I'm off to a good start so far! I guess I'm kinda getting ahead of myself, though...
Ok so Friday I went home and woke TK up early and we went by Chick-fil-a for a free chicken biscuit. Turns out that they do have a good spicy chicken! We were pretty early so we decided to go by the Walmart next door to look for some of those little Halo Mega Bloks mystery packs. They didn't have any though. TK really wants me to find a couple of the new little Grunts. They have like three different colors this time! Dropped him off at school and went to HEB. I got a few things that TH and TK needed, plus some eggs, almond milk, hot dogs, Slim Jims, salt and vinegar pork rinds, a few veggies, and some boneless seasoned pork ribs and chicken sausages that were marked down. Got home and TH was awake so we decided to go to Sam's. We bought some precooked bacon, precooked frozen sausage patties, shredded cheese, frozen uncooked hamburger patties, pepperoni, almonds, two big containers of pork rinds, spinach, some brussel sprouts, and some vitamins. So we have plenty of stuff to cook! Went home and hung out for a while, then TH left for work and I took a quick nap. Got up a little bit after TK got home and UPS had brought TH's birthday present! So we were able to hide it while he wasn't there :-) Played some Minecraft and zombies with him until TH got home then just kinda hung out until he went to bed. We stayed up a little bit later playing Minecraft.

September 12
Finally Thursday night again :-) So I went home this morning and got TK off to school then played a little Black Ops 2 until TH got up. Did a little cleaning and vacuumed everything. Hung out with him for a while and went to bed not too terribly late. Got up around 5:30 and played a little Minecraft with TK then just kinda hung out for a while until it was time to come to work.
Tomorrow I'm going to wake TK up early and we're going to go to Chick-fil-a for breakfast. We have a couple of free breakfast sandwich coupons :-) I'll drop him off at school and probably stop by HEB for a few things, then TH and I might go to Sam's. Need to stock up and get ready because I'm gonna start the keto thing Sunday night. That means this will be my last pizza/beer night for a while. I can totally do this, though. It will be fun!
Song: Halo Reach OST - Tip of the Spear Suite. Plays during the level Tip of the Spear on Halo Reach (duh).
Best thing: Actually slept pretty well!
Worst thing: One of our residents here has been sick, and they've had nurses and hospice coming in for the last few weeks. Somebody from the funeral home came by earlier :-/ Don't know if that means it's over, or they're getting ready for it to be over :-(
Yeah.

September 11
Not too much going on again today. All the flags are half-mast, and everyone's kinda...serious, I guess. It's been 12 years but I guess it takes a while to really get over something like that. Still kinda depressing to think about :-(
Went home and got TK off to school then played a little Black Ops 2 until TH got up. We made some breakfast tacos and watched a movie, then I went to bed kinda late. I slept til almost 8:00, made a sandwich to bring to work, and now I'm here. Yay. I told TH this morning that I was thinking about doing the keto thing. We get paid tomorrow, so Friday I may see about going to get some stuff to get started. If I do I think I'll try to cook up some stuff this weekend and maybe start Sunday night. That means no drinking for a while, either. Eek! It will be worth it, though.
Song: Avenged Sevenfold - Girl I Know. A7X!!
Best thing: When I went to bed Naga was in there asleep. I have never caught her on our bed! She slept with me for a while :-)
Worst thing: Feeling kinda yucky :-/
Yeah.

September 10
Not much going on today. Went home and got TK off to school then just kinda hung out for a while. TH was still asleep so I went to bed kinda early. Got up when TK got home and we played a little bit of zombies then made spaghetti for dinner. It rained a little, right after TK got home. And now I'm at work.
The last few nights I've been reading a lot about the keto diet. Basically it's low carb, with no sugars or grains or anything like that. We've tried the low carb thing before and I always did really well on it but it was kinda hard to stick to it. I'm thinking about trying it again, though. I remember that I did have a lot more energy while I was doing it. We'll see.
Song: Red Hot Chili Peppers - The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie. Random shuffle again.
Best thing: We managed to get 2 of the harder achievements on the new Black Ops 2 zombies map :-)
Worst thing: Cramps. Still :-/
Yay.

September 9
So I woke TK up when I got home and he was still feeling kinda crappy so I just let him go back to bed. TH got up and we watched the new episode of Breaking Bad and just kinda hung out for a while. I went to bed later than I probably should have and slept til around 5:00. TK actually got up before I went to bed and acted like he was feeling better so he should be fine to go to school tomorrow. Glad he's not really sick! Played a little Minecraft with him until TH got home, hung out with him for a little bit, and now I'm at work.
It rained and thundered at the house for a little while. Didn't seem like we got a whole lot of rain but every little bit counts! It was cooler today too - when I came to work it was only like 78 instead of 80-something. Hopefully it's going to really start cooling off soon!
