YAY Liese - they are also fair trade, so a good choice to avoid Lush.

Kathy, if you are doing mashed potatoes, you might try making half or a quarter of them mashed cauliflower. better for you.

I have decided to not do what I usually do on known work from home days, which is start work in my PJs and not shower until after my morning meetings. One long, exfoliating, hot, shower coming right up.

Better help.

My eyes are runny, and it's weird. I don't like it.

Also I don't feel like working. I don't know how I'm going to make it through to Christmas, with a lot going on after work, and my boss counting down the days.

If you put your gloves on the radiator and your cats like to sleep on the radiator, do not attempt to use your gloves to remove cathair from your shirt.

Jesse, choose one task you need to do. Start on it.

I just hooked up my wireless mouse for my laptop. I kid you not I have had it for at least 7 years and never got it working because I am a lazy sod.

Heh, sarameg. I do that too. Plus, I carefully lintroller my turtleneck, then put my jacket on. My jacket with the fleece lining. My jacket with the fleece lining that's been lying in the back of the station wagon. With the dog.

Maybe you could have these? [link] They dissolve! My 9 mo. old niece adores them.

Those look interesting, but still have the problem of having particles in them--at this point, it's smooth liquidy stuff until Monday, then pureed foods sequeing into very soft foods until the 27th, then I can start on soft foods, including toast and crackers, which will be my first crunchable items (yay!). I'll keep those in mind, though!

Does mashed cauliflower taste as yucky as regular cauliflower? I have taste issues with that veggie, unlike broccoli, which I don't mind the taste of, but can't stand the texture of the seedy treetops (I like the stalks).

I'm going to start on my Greek yogurt tomorrow morning, which is very high in protein and something my dietician was really recommending.

I was having a pretty good day, but I have apparently decided to depress the hell out of myself by watching the end run of Terriers and listening to Cowboy Mouth's "How Do You Tell Someone?", Mumford & Sons "Little Lion Man" and "Calling All Angels." WTF is wrong with me!?!

I just did some tasks! Personal tasks, but whatever.

I really just have one work task to do today, and it's not an actual deadline, so there you go. It's a biggish task, but eh.

DO IT!!!!! you will feel good. and it will be DONE! Go get some money!!
