Home in the big armchair. It is cold and rainy outside. We just came back from the grocery store. We bought a sweet potato, minced garlic, dark chocolate, allergy free trail mix, donuts (for Dustin’s work), Kettle BBQ chips, and a cleaner for the stove.
I can’t believe how much my body has changed with no gluten or dairy in its system. Turning down the candy at work is hard, and not driving through and getting a burger on late nights is even harder. But my stomach has had no issues, and I am learning to control my food urges. Pllus I feel healthier than I have in awhile.
Tonight I decided to grill my chicken in red wine and crushed black pepper. It was so fragrant and juicy and good! I love curling up with my bowl of rice and chicken and watching My Name Is Earl. It’s been my ritual this week.
Tomorrow we are making something else. It’ll be nice to branch away from chicken.
I was grumpy this morning, and drove with a frown on my faace, rap music blaring. Well not all the way. I switched to some pensive Foo Fighters music when I pulled into work. My day was good though. I felt a lot like the director I’m supposed to be, handling responsibility. And my boss must be taking his meds or something because these past 2 days he has been a peach to work with. He called my curly hair gorgeous. Always a plus.
I think that’s it. Finally asked my co-worker if she could work that whole Saturday in February, so I can go to Chicago!!! I’m in the process of booking my tattoo appointment and everything. I can’t wait to see the Windy City again. Oh how I miss it. I well up at the thought of it, not t mention I cried on the plane from STL to Columbus when I saw it’s bright skyline in the distance. I am in love with that cold hearted, lonely city. Our love for such odd places is what makes us human. Only humans could love a surrounding like a city.
