I also forgot that I used to list my lunch options all the time! I stopped doing that when I started trying to lose weight because I wasn't buying lunch anymore. There's a Taiwanese street food truck here today though! Ooo what is the menu? www.mitfoodtrailer.com/menu.php

There's a Taiwanese street food truck here today though! This was literally the highlite of my day. Well today we have that food truck, and then Mediterranean! Which I'm glad I didn't look at earlier because it's my fasting day and I would have absolutely ordered some Shish Tawook! Spanakopita Platter Flaky pastry filled with feta and spinach. Served over saffron rice with parsley and garlic sauce. Mediterranean Chicken Salad Marinated chicken with garlic sauce served on iceberg lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, french feta, jumbo greek olives, pickled turnips, and famous homemade garlic-vinaigrette dressing. Chicken Shish Tawook Charbroiled chicken breast tenderloin marinated in garlic, lemon juice, herbs and spices. Served with saffron rice, parsley and garlic sauce.

And Thursday is fried chicken!! Well, I know what I'm getting Thursday!
Maybe. I think Thursday is also the wood fire pizza truck.
And this is why I needed to lose weight in the first place.

He needs to look ahead at the delivery menus before booking any food trucks. I shouldn't have to choose between fried chicken and wood fire pizza!

I still eat dinner every night though. So my last meal was dinner last night and I'll just sip on my broth until dinner tonight. I've been doing it for about 6 weeks now. It's been working out pretty well but I might switch to a 36 hour fast instead. So my last meal will be dinner on Monday and then I won't eat again until breakfast on Wednesday. And do that twice a week.

We have like a fake food truck thing here at work where they bring local companies in and they do a limited menu in the cafeteria. Yesterday was BBQ, today they had Coney island. I keep wanting to try the soul food place which will be here Thursday.

kleigh a bit late but I 100% believe it's personality. C can entertain himself and could since a young age. H.... H has the ability and will do on occasion.. But it's rare. And I really don't think my parenting has varied that much. They are just chalk and cheese.

Oh I wasn’t expecting that answer 😂🤦🏼♀️ Lol well I'm not an expert or anything, but my kids are literal opposites in every way. And like, there are a few things I did differently (like having H sleep in his own room all night at 18 months as opposed to 2.5) but I really don't think that's enough to make them so different lol.

kleigh my original theory was that most 1st burns have difficulty playing alone, but danib just proved that wrong. I do think it is related to personality. O still has difficulty self entertaining but E does it quite easily. I realize, this is of no help to you.

Last night I crashed hard and don't think I even moved until my alarm went off. I was so upset that it was already time to wake up. So of course I'm exhausted this morning and it's another slow day. I have a couple things to take care of but not enough to fill the day. I'm going to leave a little early and stop at the hospital for a blood test. I don't even remember which one at this point.

I'm not well today. My chest is so tight I'm having a hard time getting a full breath and it hurts when H leans against me. H is being so difficult too. I know it's not his fault, he wants to play, but I literally can't (and as we established yesterday, he is not good at entertaining himself). Im hoping I can get into my doctor's after-hours clinic this evening just to have her listen to my chest and make sure there isn't anything more serious than a nasty cough/cold going on.
