Wednesday

What a day...work seems to be dragging on FOREVER today!  I'm on my lunch and so far today I have eaten a banana, a hard boiled egg, a piece of multi grain Wasa crisp bread with WW peppercorn spreadable cheese.  The Wasa bread is only one point and if you like crunchy this is for you!  You will notie if you continue to read my blog that I am not rich and the food that I buy and make is not going to be too fancy.  Sorry!  :(
However I do like trying new things that fit into the budget and taste good.  For lunch I just ate a progressive 2point per serving can. (Zesty Chicken) I of course eat the WHOLE can!  Which when you really calculate it is 5 points not 4 with that I had two slices of bread (white) for 3 points along with another wedge of cheese.  17 points down 15 to go!  Lets see what the rest of the day brings.
BTW my legs are flipping killing me!!!  I hope that in the next 5 hours they will feel better so I can go out on a walk/jog again tonight.

Well it's now 8:28pm and I can tell you that today I did NOT run or walk.  I finished my taxes instead and went to visit my mom.

I came home at 345pm from work went to pick my son up from school, and then got this notion that we should high light his hair so it looks summery when we head to Florida in 23 days.  Well my son Dylan is a dark ash blond naturally so if figured he will be 13 next month and what the heck why not.   I used one of those dies with the cap for high lighting. (I remember doing this to a friend back in High School)  We had the dy in his hair for about 5 minutes and I could tell that he was getting pretty blond so he needed to go wash it out...I did not let him see his hair until it was dry.  I would love to tell you that it looked just the way I hoped but then I would be lying.  Dylan saw his hair and the first thing he said was "NO, NO, MOM I'M NOT GOING TO SCHOOL TOMORROW!"
Soooo instead of the walk it was a trip to Wal-mart to buy more die to 'fix' his hair.  (I did successfully give my daughter a single streak high light) By the time we hit my moms (two boxes of color on hand-just in case) HE LIKED IT!  Bugger!  He did tell me that he was going to see what it looks like in the morning and what his friends will say...which means that if if friends don't like it I will be spending tomorrow night dying hair as well (So I should really do my walk BEFORE I fix the hair-If I need to)
I will be sharing pictures of this once I know that he is really okay with the color.
Oh s far as food goes for the rest of the day...my points went to 14 tortilla chips with salsa (4 points) a Bagel thin (2 points) Brie Cheese (2 points) and yet another hard boiled egg (2 points)  Kids ate mac and cheese w/ chicken.
My My the more I look at this the more I see that I need some more veggies in me, and that I need to cook if I'm going to blog about all this.
