you are stonger than you think.

so i did rad today.
i did two loads of dishes. and i cooked dinner! yes! ME i cooked chicken which i don't do, i don't even like to see it. i don't touch it , and if i have to buy it i have to put it in the plastic bag they put conveniently by it. AND if you shop with me? i make you put yours in a bag. it's a rule. and i am a freak about chicken. or any raw meat. i purchased it the other night for lance to cook before he left so i could get through the last couple days of the diet.and he ran out of time, and forgot. SO i was brave today, i cut it open, dumped it into the crock pot, and the freaking meat juice maxi pad fell in, and it was between chicken breasts, i tried to remove it with a fork but no deal so I DUG IT OUT WITH MY FINGERS. and threw it away, and i didn't even vomit. aren't you proud! i told Lance and while he was sufficiently proud, he also acted like i'm a mega dork for thinking it's a big deal that all normal housewives do that crap. and well i thought kiss my A$$, you know it is a big deal, because i make you do it normally. ANY way. then i added 2 cans of diced green chilies and diced 1/2 an onion, 3 cloves of garlic, and 4 tomatoes and squeezed 2 limes into it. and added my non iodized salt . yes it would have been easier to just add a jar of salsa or something but they aren't diet compatible so i improvised. and i let it cook all day on high. until it shredded with a fork. the kids were excited i cooked, and they thought it was the best dinner ever. we had it with fried corn tortillas for soft tacos, with lettuce and pico de gallo. heavenly. the kids had sour cream too. and i didn't even bother to get out cheese,(it was in the freezer) i don't eat sour cream or cheese anyway. so it was fabulous! Paxton said over and over i ROCKED and I was the best cook ever! Peyton that is was really good too. Liberty had cucumbers, and joy had hers without chicken(she says she only eats chicken in nugget form) and hope loved it too. Pierce had sour cream by the spoonful and with chips.

so yeah good day. i did 2 things i don't normally do at all and really hate to do. but i stepped up , and kicked butt! yeah i rock today.

i have one day left, only 1/2 really, and i am pretty thrilled i stuck to the diet. never cheated once, and in the end didn't mind it. sure i whined but i did it. and that is RAD too. AND i read on the support group that i could stop the diet 24 hours after the radiation pill, but i decided I'd have more peace of mind if i just stuck with it. although my chocolate is calling my name. AND we have girl scout cookies in the cupboard waiting for me. AHHHHHHHHHHHHH just 12 hours 'til the scan.
i think i'll take some chocolate in my purse. and some cookies in the car. and i'm for sure stopping at sonic on the way home for my Dr. pepper!

Ok and some of you guessed at my addictions so here you go. i'm addicted to dr. pepper, shopping, sex, blogging, guitar hero, webkinz, Girls night out/bunko , eating what i want*. convenience, reading and sleep. that covers it i think.

*and eating what i want encompasses anything. like dessert first, Chinese food when craving it, chocolate, girl scout cookies, seasonal fruit, cucumbers with lime and chili powder and salt, Pizza. spaghetti. yeah anything i crave. i like it that way.

oh and overheard today? while putting Pierce in the car seat, Hope was pitching a fit wanting to ride in it. Joy said your a big girl now, and Hope's reply ,"no i'm a little gril! i have little boobs! see?"

and while i was taking the girls to singing today. the boys didn't want to come. the big boys, so i said fine stay here it will only be 45 minutes, when i got home Peyton said Paxton crashed on his bike while i was gone. freaking moron,went out on his bike while i was gone and crashed. what a ding dong, i made sure he was fine(he skinned his shoulder and his cheek) then I yelled at him for going outside while i was gone. that is the rule you stay home, you stay inside. then i yelled at Peyton for not keeping him in the house. i swear. NO ONE is staying home alone anymore. they have to go for the quickest of rides, and the lamest of errands from now on. UGH! freaking swifty! and yeah I'm no mother of the year. get over it. but i cooked dinner today whoohoo!

and yes this is a big thing. and i totally don't normally do the cooking, or at least not the cooking of meat. qah it's bed time i'm actually tired. shocking. well no time in the morning to blog. BUT I'll be sure to post what happens at the scan. my appointment is at 10 am. whoohoo!

and guess what! spell check works again! whoohoo! rad!
