The $842 million PowerBall jackpot was won by someone in Michigan. Another disappointing day. Hubs didn't start dinner until 11 pm. He forgot about it and went to sleep. I woke him up at 4:30 am; and we had dinner at 5 am. Pork and sauerkraut is the traditional meal on New Year's Day for good luck. We missed it by one day. 78 days until spring. S**w is coming on Thursday and a big storm on the weekend. Phooey! Breakfast - Protein bar Lunch - Bean soup Dessert/Snack - Brownie and decaf coffee Dinner - Pork, sauerkraut, mashed potatoes What did you eat yesterday? Photo Credit: Pixabay

Have you received your campaign funds yet? They can be used for legal fees, Mar-a-Largo parties, hush money payments to ex-lovers, Depends undergarments, Beano, Brie, and other necessities.

Oh my goodness, I have the feeling that your husband has a memory problem similar to my husband.

@LindaOHio It is extremely concerning. My husband yesterday could not remember which day and month it was.

@LadyDuck My husband has always been that way. Obviously that's unusual for your husband. I'm sorry to hear that.

I guess it is going to be a relief when Meals on Wheels comes back.

@LindaOHio Maybe you could get a pizza or some other kind of take out on the days you don't get meals. That would be a nice change..and a bit of a treat. You won't have to worry about cooking either.

77 days until spring. About that time the s**w should be done...at least by the end of March. Yes, we both should have split the PowerBall jackpot!

@LindaOHio Doesn't sound too long, but it feels like a lifetime away. We could have snow till like May lol. That sounds fair to me, to split it!

I'm sorry you had your dinner late. I'm sorry your forecast is s**w. When you have a storm, you usually send it over to us afterwards! Yesterday I had:- Breakfast - Alpen cereal with no added sugar, blueberries on top and strawberries on the side. Lunch - Sweet and sour Quorn ready meal thing. Dinner - Risi i Bisi. I hope you are well. Have a nice day.

He seems to have a messed up sleep schedule? I know how hard that can be. Maybe you could possibly work together to make several meals at once, when he is awake and feeling better? And package them to be reheated? I surely do wish you had some help there. I've probably asked this before, but can you get home health to come in once or twice a week? Your doctor should be able to make a recommendation for you to have that. One of my neighbors has that for her and her husband--the lady even goes to the store to pick up the grocery orders, puts it away, and makes several meals once a week to freeze for them. This has to be very difficult.

Our housekeeper comes once a week and does a lot for us. She doesn't cook for us though. If we ever win the lottery, we are hiring a chef and a chauffeur!!! lololol

@MarieCoyle We have it better than a lot of the people here. We're not starving; and we treat ourselves occasionally to pizza or Chinese or a dinner out.

@LindaOHio Winning the lottery would be great, I just wish it was not so difficult for you there.

Dinner at 5 AM is quite an odd time. Yet sometimes we do get into such a condition. Breakfast to Dinner sound nice. We had a combined breakfast and lunch yesterday with Wheat Flour Rotis, Spinach Cheese in Gravy and a cooked vegetable of Potatoes and Radish. Dinner was of Beaten Rice (Poha) and Ketchup with a sweet. And well, the morning today starts with Tea and cookies(mostly Digestives). Have a great Wednesday ahead !!

Maybe you can get the meals on wheels a little more frequently so that there is less expected from your hubs and you eat on time. Our weather is going to get colder, but we haven't heard the word snow yet in the forecast.

Someone had to win it sooner or later. I'm sorry you didn't eat dinner until five this morning. Your food looks good. I wonder if my lack of good luck is because I don't like sauerkraut. All my food yesterday was from the open house except the banana for breakfast. The scale was good this morning.

Your meal schedule is all messed up, isn’t it. I would have been very hungry! Yesterday, I had salmon, lemon cod, two cuties, and a few cashews.
