Keep it up - Chicka!

I am proud of myself. I have had a long week so far and today was no different. I worked all day, then had my annual eye exam. My vision is the same as last year and the year before that so that was good. I was really in the mood to get some new glasses though and I looked and looked but there was nothing that caught my eye. I was so disappointed. 

Of course I was really tired by now and hungry but I am working so hard on my healthy eating again I just kept running my errands, even after passing multiple pizza shops and fast food restaurants. I drove out to pick up my organic vegetables from a nearby farming family. Shares are a wonderful thing! I then passed even more fast food restaurants on my way home, nearly giving in. But then I said to myself. You can do this! I started looking around at my choices and when I really took a look, I knew there was nothing I would purchase that would taste as good nor be as good for me as the leftovers in my fridge. So I kept driving all the way home.

What an excellent choice! Once home, I sliced up a fresh tomato from my garden and ate it. Oh My it was wonderful! I then heated up some homemade vegetable soup I had made on Monday with some of my homemade chicken bone broth. It was even better today after all the flavors had melded together the past 3 days. And I had a glass of Merlot that I could not have had at any of the fast food restaurants!  It was a perfect dinner, too bad I had to eat it alone since Dennis is at CAP (Civil Air Patrol) with my grandson Austin prepping for their E-val this weekend in Frankfort. I would have preferred him to be home with me, but he is having fun with Austin, so I guess I'll wait for another dinner with my man.

Anyway, I wrote all this jibber jabber to say - Good job Denise!  Keep it up - Chicka!
