Hubby is out of town this week. In stead of stocking up on goodies i’m stoking up on protein. It always fills me up. To the point where i don’t get enough in my diet.
I have always been dense. Grandparents, Mom, Aunts, and more always tell how when i was a little girl they would pick me up or at least try once they found out how heavy i was. I wasn’t “big boned” or “thick” other than some meaty calves i was very lean. Just made of muscle.
My little guy M (18mo) is the same way. He doesn’t have any chubby rolls but has the abbs and back of a muscle machine. He’s a picky eater but if it’s protein he’ll eat it. Including tuna out of the can. He can’t get enough.
What am i getting at…gosh even i forgot…oh…I’m the same way. I’m healthier and happier when i get a lot of protein in my diet. Be it legumes, milk, eggs, and meat. Yes i am a carnivore. Not a big fan of hamburger
…just not a lot of meat and a whole lot of….
Any, who. Hope you are all doin’ well. I’ve been overwhelmed and decided to do something about it. Simplify, prioritize, organize, stop procrastinating and get things of my ever building to-do list. I got bills up to date today and that was a huge sense of relief. I switched our finance tracking to Quicken online (which is free and now lets you split categories…like groceries, and clothes from Costco). I finally broke down the 12 boxes in my office and thru out all the trash. Now i just need to find all the stuff i stuffed in drawers when we had our home on the market. It will be nice to know where stuff is again =)
Well here’s to getting my priorities straightened out.

Hey there! We can do this – sad thing is I am short, my doctor wants me to be 125 at the highest! If only I were 5 inches taller!
Hope you have a great day Krystal!

I wish I was more reliable with getting protein in my diet.

I love protein too! Especially eggs…yum! I can’t believe your little guy eats tuna out of a can…how cute is that!

eggs… that’s my favorite source of protein in the morning. I remember when my little one was 18 months used to eat Hummus, Tuna, and Green beans – now he can’t stand any of them. I hate that. Must try something else.
