Cooking

I managed to get the grocery store yesterday.  Yea ME!
I made a couple of simple things:

Mayo (delicious - used it on tuna)  Side note - left it on the counter by accident - goodbye mayo UGH.
Roasted sweet potato "ribbons" from Trader Joe's.  Low and slow.  Nothing on them.  They dehydrate and are a good crunch on food (like tunafish!!)

Today is an Instant Pot Beef Stew (nomnompaleo recipe) and spicy shredded carrot salad (also good crunch factor).  Big batches of both.  I'll freeze some of the stew and the carrots last for days.

I managed a power walk for Duke (3 miles) and shorter walks for the others (1.5 miles total) plus a quick arm and back lift session.  Not bad, but my legs are still tired this morning.  Today is a RUN with Duke day - although as of now, it's still raining.

Ellie is getting me up during the night again.  Now it's to eat.  I added green beans to her meals yesterday hoping to give her a fuller belly.  She's gaining too much weight.  Dang these steroids!!

I need SLEEP!  I don't do well with broken sleep.  I'm back to zombie mode again.  Duke keeps sleeping ON my feet.  Then I get stuck and my legs/knees hurt.  I'm full of complaints - PMS week and crappy sleep.  Watch out world.  Best to leave me alone LOL!

After these fosters, I think I need a little break.  We have a long way to go before Ellie is up for adoption though.

That's all my brain can mange this morning.  Hubby comes home tonight (like midnight) but he's working from home tomorrow.  Relief forces on their way.  Later gators.
