Tuesdays Musings

Well, I am on this diet again. Trying to limit my calories. I did really well for about 5 days and today I went a little over my limit of calories (1,200), not too bad though. Not sure how I got a little off track, but won't beat myself up for it.

Today was spent taking care of some business and then cleaning up the house a bit. I stopped to do some drawing when I ran across my drawing stuff. Then I ran across some books I just got and started reading them. So now I will just have to clean some more tomorrow and stop getting distracted with other things.

Today was the day I put on the Flea Advantage on my two cats. They were not too pleased with me, but they both were tolerant enough to not scratch me or put up too much of a fuss. I rewarded them both with a little grated cheese as a treat. They both need to be treated once a month to avoid having a tough time with fleas. That flea stuff works great on them and I am grateful because before they really were bothered by fleas by just using flea collars.

Well, sometimes the news gets me down. Especially a current big news story of a missing little three year old. I need to limit my amount of news I watch as I tend to get a bit depressed over it. Think I will just read headlines and not delve into it as much. I would rather stay more lighthearted with my thoughts.

I did my laundry, went for a walk and made a nice dinner. The nice dinner is probably why I went over my calories. I made brown rice, vegetarian chicken strips in a cream of mushroom soup sauce with spices. I served some broccoli on the side with it. It just tasted really good. Guess next time I make that I will just add a big salad and have a smaller serving of the brown rice. Live and learn I guess.

Nothing else new here. Will be looking into some new things to do to keep life interesting. Think I will follow our community events section of our paper. That is all for now. Hope any of you who stumbled across this post are doing well for today.
