Yesterday I had the first estimate on a new garage door and opener. It wasn't as bad as I was expecting. Today (4/22) they are starting on the gravel driveway.
I am having gastrointestinal issues again. I don't know why; but I have my generic Imodium to hopefully nip it in the bud. I'll have to reschedule my mammogram for next week. At least I know that the frozen food most likely was not the culprit.
I have way too much scheduled for this week; but next week will be much better. It is nice to be able to get things done. My husband always said, "I'll get to it". lololol
I am 2 days behind on reading and commenting on your Discussions. I did Notifications yesterday; but I have 67 new ones. I will do my best to try and catch up.
Breakfast - Protein bar
Lunch - Meals on Wheels - Ham, scalloped potatoes, beets (yuck!) and applesauce
Dessert/Snack - Chocolate chip muffin
Dinner - Ham/cheddar sandwich and Doritos
What did you eat yesterday?

I hope that your stomach feels better soon. Hope that all goes well with your mammogram appointment. It's a good feeling when you get things done on a busy day. But do catch up with some rest too.

@arunima25 I think I caught a bug. It may be going away.

I don’t blame you.
Yesterday I had half a bagel with sugar free jelly, and a biscuit. I was nauseated all day from a new medicine so I didn’t want to eat anything really.

I loves me some beets. Have you seen this Key and Peele video? It's one of my favorites. I cannot open a can of beets without saying it as the Colonal says it.

Are you feeling some added stress with all this going on? That could be the reason for the digestion troubles. I hope the Imodium helped.

Yesterday was a good day for food.
I had boiled cabbage with mashed potatoes with butter in them.
Added salt and some black pepper and had a real feast.

We really did have an excellent day.
I drove about 140 miles in total on our latest bike.
Not bad for an old bloke like me.

@LindaOHio — the sub was at Subway, and that’s nothing compared to how good the Zeros turkey sub was!

I'm glad you've decided the food in your freezer is still good and it's not the cause of your latest problem. (I've been having a similar problem but that is "normal" for Graves' Disease. I'm used to it by now.)
I ate a sausage, egg and cheese croissant for breakfast, some leftover pasta for lunch and I didn't eat anything for supper.

He was quite the procrastinator it seems.
I love beets. Shredded beets with fresh parsley, prunes, and mayo is delicious. And borscht (beet soup) is comfort food. I also love cold beet soup (holodnik) which is perfect for hot days.

@LindaOHio True. Beets are a staple I think in Belarus.

Yes he was. You were raised with that type of food. We never had beets.

Sorry to hear about the gastrointestinal problems. That's never fun and I hope the Imodium fixes it for you. For dinner we're just trying to use up a ton of leftovers since we will be leaving Thursday for our first camp of the new season. We made ham and cheese quesadillas, and we're going to have to freeze some of it—it was a 9 pound ham. lol

It is likely your stomach is upset because of all the stress. You are getting things done, but your "helper" is not pleasant and I bet it upsets you a lot.

Hmm, leftover ham,mac and cheese ,oatmeal, and yogurt..plus snacks. Is there a way you can find out the menu in advance and request no beets? Sorry about your stomach.

I'm sure doing all the scheduling you're doing at one time could contribute to those gastrointestinal issues. It can become very stressful.
