LOL SUZE for me this IS last minute but I mean really the 11th hour when it's poop or get off the pot. Let availability and price really decide for you if you're still on the fence. I'm pretty sure this is allergies. I get this way every December and stay this way until like mid January into February when I get really sick (like the Medicare bill I was fighting today for 1/18/17 for bronchitis). So I think I'm going to start my Nebulizer treatments. I was discussing w/ my new doctor how I get sick the first of every year almost... either bronchitis or pneumonia. First he asked about the 2 pneumonia shots, both of which I got. Then he asked if I had a nebulizer, which I said I had for when I GOT sick and he said to start RX before I got there. He said at the first twinges. So I added my Singulair back, am taking my nasal steroids and inhaler twice/day instead of once in a while. See if I can fight this thing before it kicks me.
Poor little Rolo McFlurrie has come home from daycare on 2 separate occasions w/ a fever and cold symptoms. And he'd only been there for 4 weeks. They call daycare "A Petri Dish", so hopefully he has more cold antibodies than I do at this point! If it progresses into a cold.
No BECKY as much as I wanted that fudge, I didn't TOUCH any of it. I did have eggs and gluten free toast before bed and had a much better night. No more going to bed on an empty stomach for me, though I'll have to be smart about what I eat. I'll stick to protein and bland. Eggs worked fine and I always have them on hand and I like them HEAR THAT SUZE? Isn't it weird that raspberries and blueberries are OK on FODMAP but not blackberries? Sorry they wrecked you. I bought blueberries but haven't tried them. I'm still worried about my gut, and also I don't like blueberries. So why did I buy them? I DUNNO!! hahaha

Meal 1: I had 3 eggs, no bacon and 1 GF toast. And 2 cups coffee w/ coconut milk. Meal 2: will be "chicken paillard" done on the foreman I think (or iron skillet) along w/ a spring mix salad w/ blanched green beans (I counted out my 12 of them) and a half a cup of blanched zucchini, chilled, w/ a lemon vinaigrette and shaved Parmesan. Maybe half a baked potato OR I'll save the potato as my bedtime snack and save some of the chicken to go with it. Bland with protein.

cluck cluck bok bok bok...BWOK!!
I think it will be Friday or Saturday before I feel better about a decision. Prices are still good so far so we shall see. And, because of funding and other things, the powers that be created a "flex term" and most all graduate classes will be starting Feb 14 versus Feb 1. So that gives me a LOT of time to get appeals/reinstatement's done before classes begin. That being said, I may not go back to work until the 3rd, which allows me to go up a little later.

Celeste I think it's strange about the raspberries and blueberries on FODMAP but my tummy definitely knows why blackberries are on the list which is strange too b/c I have been eating them for the last week or more but not today.I'm used to IBS-C but not the other part of IBS. I love raspberries and they didn't seem that good today.I'm hoping this is just a 24 hr bug.
Suze I wouldn't recommend Freestyle since you don't like eggs unless you don't eat breakfast.You would do fine otherwise.

SANDY don't you go ganging up on me with SUZE making fun of my egg affinity. But I do think I'm starting to grow tail feathers.
BECKY I agree that freestyle is ROUGH w/o eggs. But she will eat Hard Boiled. And maybe those "Sandy Pancakes" (2 eggs and 1 egg mushed up and made into pancakes). But eggs being 0 makes breakfast a lot easier. Hope you get to feeling better soon. I get the gut issues with C and the D and it can change back and forth in 24 hours so I never know what to expect. SURPRISE!!!!!! But I tend to lean toward having to make bathroom runs.
Well it's starting to thunder again. It's been kind of wicked weather. I know we need to rain, but I didn't set foot outside my door all day. Tomorrow is WI so I have to go out. Also need to get some Airborne, Afrin and sudafed and start taking them so I don't get sick(er) on the plane. I also need a haircut but that's not happening this year. At least I got my roots done.
Dinner (chicken breast and a salad) was boring. Not at all satisfying. I'll probably have MORE EGGS and toast tonight. Is 6 eggs/day too many??? πππ£π€π₯π₯π³

LAST DAY!!! I have 2 weeks, not that I'm going to get to rest too much during that time with my dad here, Autumn having a sleepover next week and I have a new course I'll be teaching that I need to now prepare for before going back. But I will take some time to just be and do what I want. When we go back, I hit the floor running for the next few months.
Sorry to hear y'all are not feeling well. Hope that all changes soon. I still have that last little bit of cough that won't go away & other than being tired, I think I'm ok (for now).

Celeste 6 eggs a day isn't too much as long as they aren't all boiled.I don't believe I could eat that many in one day however.We had light showers tonight but it's supposed to be pretty tomorrow then get cold on Christmas Eve.My tummy is some better but tomorrow it may be back to C.I rarely get D but I did today.
I hope everyone gets to feeling better and get some rest Steph.

STEPH maybe if you get good rest that cough will let up. I think we tend to get so worn down in from THX to Jan 1. Enjoy the time w/ dad.
BECKY funny I like boiled eggs but yeah.... 6 boiled eggs? Not sure about that unless they were slathered in mayo and mustard and a touch of curry powder so they were deviled.
SANDY I agree. I could have Frambled eggs several times a day. Sometimes I think "I can't eat another egg" but i make them for bkfst anyway and I always LIKE THEM!
I'm going to bed. I have to shower first. I'll have a toast snack I think w/a bit of cheese. Yesterday I had eggs, cheese and toast but I'm not that hungry tonight. Fingers crossed re my GERD.

Never got a nap before shopping yesterday and skipped the DMV. So that will be on today's agenda. Was pretty wiped out while shopping, but enjoyed spending time with my GF, Diane. My friend Lisa was supposed to meet us for dinner but got stuck at work. The last gift I need to buy is steaks from Johnnie's Meat Market for my dad. Will pick them up Friday so they will be fresh. Lost an auction for a big wood blank for DH. Have made an offer on another one. Doubt it will be here in time for Christmas, but we'll see. I will ask about expedited shipping and see what they say.
Decided on a Christmas Dinner menu. Thick cut crock pot pork chops, mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans with bacon in another crockpot, corn casserole, hot rolls and a choice of mounds cake or apple cobbler with ice cream for dessert. Going to ask one SIL to bring the rolls and the other to bring sausage balls for an appetizer. Might have a cheese ball as well. Will go to the store today. Need to get my list together.
Fell asleep sitting up on the couch at 8:30pm. Went upstairs to bed before 9. Woke up about 1:30 to go to the bathroom and noticed the back gate was open. It closes with a garage door opener, so I put on a robe and went downstairs and out to my car to shut it. It would close about halfway then reopen. DH got up to go to the bathroom and noticed it was open and had to get dressed and go out and fix it. I think there was a tree limb or something that was obstructing it somewhere. I was SO TIRED so I assumed I would sleep thru the night with ease, but that bit of activity caused me to be wide awake. I stayed downstairs so I wouldn't disturb DH.

Oh, no LOUISE! Not you, too!
π·π€π€§
Got back from the DMV and the grocery store. Bought everything for Christmas dinner. Stopped to have my car washed at a "touchless" car wash.....$10 and the car is still filthy. Guess I need to take it for a hand wash. How annoying!
Have been up since about 1:30. I think I'll see if I can manage a nap.
