Missed a day

Good morning y'all.  I missed yesterday's big start of everything.  I woke up with a big sinus headache and stayed in jammies all day.  I have only done that 3 or 4 times in the past 7 or 8 years.  I slept on and off again most of the day.  And no I didn't start my new eating plan.  I decided to not call it a diet. 

This morning I weighed in at 216.  I've had 2 cups of coffee, 2 pieces of bacon, & 3 eggs.  All of that might have 2 or 3 carbs.  Not sure about the sweetener yet.  It's a natural type not artificial.  Just haven't checked the container yet.  Lunch will be a piece of chicken with celery (that's what I have in the frig).  Supper will be either deer meat or chicken again.  I'm going to start drinking water after I'm done with my 3rd cup of coffee.

Today we started school with some journaling and talked about what they wanted to learn for a while.  I got different things, such as learn to play the piano, play basketball, learn more about horses, learn to spell better, and learn more about Dad's business so he could go into business with Dad.  They were all good ideas.

We are finally taking down the Christmas decorations today too.  The boxes it all goes in is in the shop.  With the extreme cold, snow, then rain, we didn't get the boxes out until today.  That and grinding deer meat that was shot just before winter is on the agenda today..... and straightening up the classroom.  That might could have been done before, but during the holiday season, it becomes the catch-all room.  I could barely get to my desk this morning.  :) 

Tonight a friend of ours is stopping by to give us an estimate on what it might cost to expand our upstairs.  The upstairs is only on 1/3 of the house.  I would love for it to be over the whole house.  I'm going to get a few bids just to see if it's too expensive of an idea.  That would give the boys each their own room, and either a play room or a room for the sisters the boys have been wanting us to adopt.  :}

Need to get to work.  Have a blessed Monday and I'll let you know tomorrow just how I do on my eating plan!

Just some of my thoughts,
Elizabeth
