A reasonably good day today. Unfortunately I am running on a giant sleep deficit, because I hurt my arm somehow yesterday and it was achey and making me cranky all night. Of course that's the night that Jasper chose to sleep through, so I had no good reason at all to be awake. It was very irritating.
Got some work done and started on dinner, which was just chicken noodle soup but somehow meant I had to dirty half the dishes in the place. The stock I made the night before last had been outside since then (it's been below 35 for 3 days -- the porch is colder than the fridge) and it was some very gelatin-y and delicious stock. it became great soup. I poached two additional chicken breasts to add to it, but ended up only adding one because it was already chicken-heavy, and I went light on the noodles, though it was still probably more noodles than I needed. I also did not have bread/toast with butter and/or cheese. Generally I would do that, because soup isn't really a meal [in my head]. But a soup that is chicken and noodles and vegetables is totally a complete meal, especially when it's barely held together by broth.
I didn't exercise. I meant to, and kept trying to figure out when to do it, and it hasn't happened yet. I am really really worn out today. I am hoping I'll have time for a good workout tomorrow, though I don't have childcare, so it might be catch as catch can.
In any case, I have successfully implemented our meal plan again, and eaten according to my plan, and tracked my points accurately, so that is a win for today. One step at a time.
