Last night was the first good night of sleep I have had in the past three days as I didn't wake up once. Looks like I got my wish and this cold is dying out. I just hope that one of the kids doesn't get it next. Breakfast was two eggs scrambled, one piece of wheat toast. Dawn and the kids also had eggs and toast, however Brady added a bowl of cereal to his while Lily and Charlotte had some oatmeal as well. All around it was a great balanced breakfast for everyone.
After breakfast was done and the dishes cleaned it was time for some FCF (family cleaning fun). This is normally a Saturday routine and everyone helps out. Well the kids spend most of the time dancing around the living room while Dawn and I clean. But non the less its still a family effort. After a few hours everything was cleaned and the floors mopped. I think this counts as some exercise!
We headed to Costco for lunch. This wasn't just because they have cheap food, but because they keep it really cold in side and its fun to walk around. Anything to beat the heat! You can kill at least an hour if not more looking at stuff and getting free samples (that's the best part). So the plan was to eat lunch there however after buying our stuff and then not finding an open table for 5, we decided to just head home for something quick. So we made some nachos in the oven for the kids and then Dawn and I had some Edamame that we just got at Costco. Quick, easy and good!
We didn't want to cook anything tonight because we already had the house and kitchen clean. So when this is the case the next best thing is ordering a pizza. Pizza Hut got the call and it was thin crust pepperoni and boneless wings. The awesome thing is I only had 1 slice of pizza and 3 wings. I was very proud of myself for pulling that off.
There was desert, however I didn't have any. Dawn made homemade strawberry shortcake and by homemade I mean everything (except the strawberries of course), pound cake & real whip cream. It looked very good, however I didn't feel like going to the ER for some reaction. See I'm allergic to strawberries, or at least I think I am. Back when I was 17 I ate some and had a really bad reaction and have never had one since. I'm sure its nothing and I would be fine, however I don't want to take the chance.
Overall the day was great. I woke up after a good night of sleep, my cold was almost gone, I ate good and was very disciplined with my food and stayed very active all day! Oh and the best part.....I got my beef jerky at Costco!
