Hello August!

 Today was the Freshman Preview at the high school.  A bunch of us running around trying to get 450+ students a tour of the campus along with a preview of what to expect.

 I have been up since 6 am and this girl is running out of gas. I tried to go to sleep at 10 and even with Tylenol PM I could not stay asleep. I slept for about an hour and was up again so I took a melatonin gummy to turn off my brain. I think it was the knowing I had an alarm set that was keeping me up. No alarm tomorrow thank goodness!  I am down to the last 8 things due. One of them I am not doing though. The professor drops the lowest grade in each section. So I didn't do something due Monday and I am not doing something due Tuesday for the same class.  No matter if I do them or not my grade will be the same so I am not even going to worry about it as I am at 96.98 in that class. 

Each day my weight was going more and more down to where I was only up .2 from the -3.8 I had before my birthday. I did not weigh in today because I have been weighing in at 11:45 am and I didn't want to be annoyed by the 6 am number. I have been eating REALLY well not even meaning to the last few days. Today I really didn't want to cook and I looked at the frozen pizza in the freezer (buffalo chicken HAH! Too bad I didn't realize I had that Monday (see below) However- 300 calories per slice! OUCH!

Monday evening I really wanted Wingstop- It was National Chicken Wing Day after all. I was looking at the specials and the best value was boneless wings. When I presented the idea to my husband he started immediately with his- "Oh, so you mean chicken nuggets?" which annoys me.  I kept looking at the price as well thinking that would be a lot to feed everyone. I ended up closing the app and cutting up that chicken I mentioned in Monday's post. I sliced two breasts thinner into 3 pieces each and then I put them in a lemon juice greek marinade I had Googled earlier with the listed ingredients- just not the same measurements. Then I sliced up the other 4 into nuggets and found some panko in the pantry. I made frozen fries and homemade nuggets. Tuesday's dinner was the marinaded chicken air-fried with rice. Wednesday was leftover rice and a bag of shrimp I turned into garlic shrimp. I sauteed up a zucchini for me as well. Tonight I was tired and didn't really want to cook.  I didn't want to mess up my calories even. Told hubby self dinner for him because he doesn't like breakfast for dinner. I sliced up some potatoes that were going soft and seasoned them then air-fried them. Then I simply made scrambled eggs. I ended up with potatoes, scrambled eggs, and the most perfect avocado for my dinner. 

I have a PowerPoint test to take tomorrow. Some more accounting stuff to do. A PowerPoint presentation and a few other things left in those last 7 things. 

Over 5k steps which I have not done much over the summer this year so far.
