Freezer meals

I figured since I wouldn't be eating regular meals with my family for at least 6 weeks (probably longer), and I am the one who cooks supper almost every night, I should probably prepare some freezer meals for my husband and the girls.  I did a lot of research and spent a good chunk of money to prepare some tasty stuff for them.  I only remembered to take pictures of some of them

Philly Cheesesteak casserole

Pepperoni pizza casserole

Baked spaghetti, Baked ziti, Adult tuna noodle casserole

Taco casserole

Not pictured:

  • Turkey and swiss on Hawaiian rolls
  • Chicken spaghetti
  • Ham and cheese potato bake

Things I am still considering making

  • Alfredo
  • Buffalo chicken wontons

Each of these meals will AT LEAST cover 2 days but will probably do 3 or more.  I also got him frozen lasagna, hamburger helper, fish sticks, frozen pizza, and chicken patties.  I made sure there was cereal, pop tarts, romen noodles, mac and cheese, and spaghettios in the house so that all of Gracie's favorites were here and lunches were easy for Josh also.  No, this is not a healthy post and all this food is SHIT but my only goals here were to make sure they had something to eat and that is was easy on him....SUCCESS...I think.  If he can follow the directions on the outside of my frozen meals and remember to thaw each meal, it should be easy.

Thursday

Hello all :) I was at a training this week with work and when deciding where we should eat somebody mentioned Olive Garden and I immediately dropped by head.  I know Olive Garden as PASTA, PASTA, PASTA so I wasn't looking forward to the temptation.  I don't know why I don't give myself credit for how strong I am.  My entire life, people couldn't pressure me to do ANYTHING I didn't want to.  I am SO STRONG and I make my own decisions; I am a lion, not a sheep :) (I want a shirt so bad that says "Be a lion")  Anyways, when we got there, I looked at the menu and right there on the lunch section were meals that were 300-400 calories and as soon as I saw zucchini I was in.  Its a half piece of chicken with a piece and a half of zucchini with mozzarella cheese and some lemon butter with tomatoes to top it off (I didn't eat those).  I left behind some zucchini and you know, I never once thought about pasta as I was sitting there.  On my way home I thoug...

2 week liquid diet

Today is the day!  All liquids!  Well, except for the popsicles, jell-o, pickles, and celery.  I have to get in 4 premier proteins and then at least 48-64 oz of other liquids each day.  Other liquids include: Water Diet V-8 Splash Sugar free jello Sugar free popsicles (less than 25 calories per popsicle) Fruit 2-0 Crystal light Diet Snapple up to 2 cups of broth decaf tea and coffee Propel water Powerade zero I don't really know what some of those are and yesterday when I went to look for Diet V-8 Splash to try it out, I couldn't find it so who knows.  This morning I am having 2 vanilla premier protein shakes in a thermos with my decaf coffee.  I also have a 20oz thing of water sitting here and a 32oz grape Powerade zero.  Last night I made strawberry, lemon, and blue raspberry jello, I bought 3 different sizes of dill pickles, and then I have boxes of popsicles, all different kind of broths, all different flavors of Powerade, grape Pro...

FMLA....more like FML

So I decided it was time to tell my work place that I would be off for about 3 weeks at the end of the year and some of January so that we could all be prepared.  The hospital had talked to me about FMLA and when I asked my supervisor who to talk to about it, she stated Human Resources.  In my entire work life, I have never had to use FMLA, I know it stands for Family Medical Leave Act, and I know it protects your job, but thats about it.  I requested a meeting with the HR lady, she accepted, and then a week later I was standing in her office.  She stares at me like why the hell are you here, I remind her we have a meeting about FMLA, and she says "I thought there would be a lot more people here"  I am going to type the conversation in an easier read format below HR: I thought there would be a lot more people Me: Nope, just me and you HR: WHO IS HAVING THE MEETING? Me: Me and you HR: blank stare Me: I scheduled with you last week to meet about requesting ...
