Friday 9-9-11

I am so drained.  I cannot wait to crawl into bed and pass out.  It has been a long, looong day.  I'm tired, I'm cranky and I miss my hubby somethin' fierce.  Yesterday's power outage really messed things up at work and he's already been working 19 hours today!  Poor dude needs sleep.  (So do I, but probably not as badly as him, so I shouldn't complain.)  I ended up grocery shopping today.  Thank goodness my parents had the day off and were able to watch the kids for me.  It pained me to re-purchase a bunch of perishable stuff I already bought 2 days ago, but what can ya do?  It's not worth the risk.  I ate some stuff for breakfast that I thought was safe (because I put them on ice yesterday) but I have been slightly nauseated all day and I can't help but wonder if maybe it wasn't so safe.  I ended up tossing that stuff too, just in case.  So this was what my menu looked like today.  I used exactly 36 of 36 WW Pts+.

My latte was much prettier til the steam melted the whipped topping. :)

Breakfast (13 pts)
1/2 c. egg whites, potato/onions/peppers and 1/2 a serving of soy chorizo scrambled together in 1 tsp canola oil and topped with Mexican blend 2% cheese and homemade salsa, with a whole wheat tortilla on the side and a ginormous, delicious pumpkin spice latte, the recipe for which I stumbled upon online.

Lunch on the run (16 pts)
A 6" personal pan pepperoni pizza from the Taco Bell/Pizza Hut Express drive-thru, with a small diet Pepsi. Not the best choice but it hit the spot and I don't regret it one bit.

Dinner (7 pts)
2 c. lean but hearty turkey-9 veggie-black bean chili (thawed from the deep freezer) with a slice of Sargento reduced fat pepper jack cheese melted on top and 7 Baked Tostitos Scoops for dipping.

And that's my 36 pts.  The chili was filling so even though I don't get dessert tonight I don't mind because I wouldn't have room for it anyway.  I hate to cut it short but I really do need some sleep.  I have another busy day tomorrow and with the hubby on-call and slammed there is a very good chance I'll be on my own again.  Good night all! Have a great Friday night!
