Fragmented Friday

Mommy's Idea
Hosted by Mrs4444 at Half-Past Kissin' Time
  • Dominic is out of school today. Stomach bug. Seems a few other kids in his class are ill and out sick too. Vomit cleaning at 3:30am is not fun.
  • I was out of work for a few days due to a muscle spasm in my lower back. I did what my chiropractor said for two days and then decided I couldn't take it anymore. I went to the urgent care joint and they fixed me up with serious drugs. Who knew muscle relaxants were that amazing? Certainly NOT me! My back is much better thanks but I've been told not to exercise for a while. I may have aggravated the injury by exercising. I don't have independent confirmation of that so I'll just assume that's wrong...
  • I started using www.myfitnesspal.com to track my food consumption. It's truly amazing how documenting (truthfully) what you eat leads you to make better choices of what you shove in your mouth. I've lost five pounds in the last 10 days. Nice.
  • Now all I need to do is STOP looking at all those fabulous pumpkin recipes on Pinterest. Nothing quite like food porn.
  • Incidentally, that salad I had for lunch did not quench my cheeseburger craving. Go figure.
  • I had to wear a COAT today. It was 40 degrees this morning! Autumn has finally arrived.
Happy Friday, y'all. I'm hoping the stomach bug flees our home so we can go to the pumpkin patch on Sunday.

I too am keeping track of my calorie intake along with fiber/calcium/protein etc. It really helps keep everything in check and balances. Don't you agree.

My Friday Fragments. Won't you stop by if you have a chance?

Good luck with the stomach bug!
Hope you get to the patch on Dunday.

Have a wonderful weekend.

Unless it was a cheeseburger salad, I don't see how it could quench your craving.

I hope your back is still OK. No fun getting hurt, that's for sure.

And you should just have a cheeseburger. Nothing else will satisfy that! ;)

Stomach bugs are the worst. Yuck. Hope it's all gone by now.

PUMPKIN. The best thing about fall. I had pumpkin spice coffee with pumpkin creamer this morning, and it was delightful.

Congrats on the five pounds!
