Weekend not so good.. back on tract for tomorrow

Well the weekend has not been a good one for me food wise.   I was aggravated with my hubby last night because he went fishing which was fine but as I was getting ready to make supper he texted me to tell me he was going out for supper with the guys he went fishing with and I had planned a nice meal.  So I ended up calling and ordering chicken nuggets from the local pizza place.  Then today we were in a bit of craziness because we had a major clog somewhere in our pipes and I couldn't do dishes sooooo we ended up grabbing some burgers and fries from town.  Neither one of course are good for me ( or us ).   So it's Monday now and we are starting out on a good note today and forget about the weekend.  Going to make a good breakfast for hubby and I when he gets home from work and  go from there with our day.

Been doing soooo much thinking this weekend.  It's so sad to see my mom continue to decline.  Just a few years ago she was so together and was working 2 jobs that she loved.  She retired from the factory when it was offered because they wanted her to learn computers and it was something she has never wanted to do. I think at that time she was also having some issues but she didn't want to admit it.  But she still worked her night job at a dance studio as a receptionist.  She was so organized and took care of so much .. phone calls, payments, doing things for the spring revue, helping with costumes.  Always talking to people.  The last couple of years she tried working there she was a mess.  She was having trouble dealing with the money, become very much in her shell and wasn't sociable, and really couldn't handle much more than answer the phone and that I think was even hard.   I am trying to always stay as much as possible ahead of this disease and prepare myself, our family.  To make sure I have things in line to keep her happy and comfortable.  Tonight I contacted someone about making a crocheted afghan for her.  Her mom always crocheted and we no longer have any of them around so I thought that if I can have one made and put it up for the day that she really needs that comfort that is what I would like to do.    It doesn't sound like much but I think it would give her a little bit of her mom in some way.

Another week ahead of us.  Lots to do around here.  I have some cleaning to do, and some phone calls to make.  Planning on a good week of eating.. baked and grilled chicken, baked fish and LOTS of veggies.

Till next time  P
