My Mom flies out tomorrow AM, and we were hoping to spend the day at Rockport today, but since I was sick yesterday, I was too behind with work, but I made time to have lunch with her at our local Brazilian Steakhouse. She had never been to one before, and she thought it was fabulous! It's kind of a waste for me since I'm banded, but I got to try lots of different meats, and it was fun! Two bites into my flank steak, I remembered that I wasn't planning on eating corn fed beef. Duh. I had a little more, but I really need to figure out what I'm going to do about eating. I have more research to do before deciding how to proceed, but either way, I hate the idea of eating regular beef now.

I am still tired from my night of missed sleep, and possibly being in pain for so long, and today I was lagging. The allergies didn't help. My body is sore, and I'm not sure why. My Mom wanted me to take it easy today, so I complied and I didn't go to the gym as planned. I should wait until I'm feeling better. I know. We went for a walk along the water, and it was really nice!
I will miss not having my Mom and Dad up here with me, but I know they love their new life in the South, and I'm happy for them. :) We had a great visit.

Between my crazy work schedule, my intensive class for school, and visiting with my folks, I have fallen behind in my house work. My lawn is covered with lawn toupee's that fell from our tree, the grass is almost a foot tall (it took 2 weeks to get there), my outdoor chairs and tables are covered with tree droppings as well, and I have some major clean up to do this weekend. I also want to start planting grass or soon it will be August and too late. It's causing me anxiety to have such a lousy yard right now, and I'm looking forward to fixing it.

I had planned to take care of it on Sunday or Monday, but my gallbladder had a different plan. I just feel bad that it looked so lousy on my Mom's last day. Even though I have more energy, it still seems like I can never ever keep up with everything I need to. I need to work on a new routine that will help me fit it all in. I don't like to ever be behind with anything. I may need to cut out sleep, but it will be worth it.

Cross your fingers that I lose Carmen this week. That would be super!
