It's 5:30 am and I am wide awake, have been for the last 30 minutes. Can I blame the dogs? They did alert me early that they needed to go potty. I mean, come on...they usually let me sleep until 6:30 and then I can lay back down for a little longer if I need to. Not this morning though. Oh no no no no no...uh uh...I guess my brain decided to kick in and start working too. Fine! Just because I'm awake does not mean that I have to enjoy it. Oh, but I do need to brush my teeth...hold on.
Okay, so not only did I brush my teeth, but I also woke up the youngest daughter and got her in the shower as well as starting coffee to brew. You didn't really think I'd forget the coffee, did you? If so then you must not have read some of my previous postings and my talk of how delicious Baxter's coffee is. Yes, I also buy my ground coffee from them as well. Oh and I fed the boys too...all three of them. So there shouldn't be a mutiny on my hands this morning.
I did have a really odd dream. I don't remember all the details, but I do remember wedding gowns, weddings, a school bus and my former mother in law and former husband. I kept telling my former husband to not touch me and that if he wanted surgery then he had to prove that he was willing to get all the pre-operative measures done, otherwise he was wasting everyone's time. Yeah, someone decipher all that for me and let me know what it means. K? Excellent. Moving on now...
So as I sit here and type endlessly to a blank screen, hoping to make a connection with someone out there in cyberspace, it makes me wonder how many others do this? I know there are a lot of bloggers out there, but who really reads all of it? I know that my life is quite boring in comparison to others, but it is still my life and I'm trying to make the most of it. Of course, my stomach is now telling me that I should make the most out of some kind of breakfast food.
Yes, you'll learn that sometimes my brain takes a quick left turn. Sometimes we have to take that little detour and then we'll continue on with what I was previously talking about. Breakfast. Oh, coffee is done!
And we're back! The above picture is my morning staple. Now that I have some go go juice, I can finish the rest of the day. Not that I'll be able to finish my thought...oh yeah...breakfast.
Breakfast is a tricky meal for me. See, I had gastric bypass surgery 16 months ago. So my digestive system is not like most any longer. Some mornings I can eat one whole egg and some mornings I can only eat half of it. Then I have days where I can have one packet of oatmeal and others where I just want some high protein yogurt (yes, there are such things...Kroger...Carbmaster yogurt...they are "da bomb"). This morning I think I might try to have a waffle. I found some Kashi waffles in the frozen breakfast foods section of the store yesterday while I was looking for french toast sticks for my daughter. I love Kashi and even though the carb count is a little high, I can balance out the rest of my day by consuming a little more protein than normal. Plus, it has blueberries in the waffle and I love me some blueberries! I'll leave you all for now, but I know that I'll be back later.
