Day Two:

I opened today's challenge - "Your only bath towel got soaked while you were showering. How will you dry off?"  I thought about drip drying while getting ready but the bathroom was pretty chilly this morning so I used my face cloth to pat dry my body and I put my housecoat on to take care of the rest. I thought that was pretty clever lol.

I found today's eating challenge was relatively easy as I was preoccupied with meetings for a good majority of the morning. I ate breakfast (cereal, banana and milk) at noon and then I ate my lunch (corned-beef and pickle wrap and an apple) around 2 pm. I have to admit, the taste of the wrap didn't appeal to me so I just ate my corned-beef and pickle. The wraps were on a discount sale, so I guess you get what you pay for. For supper this evening, I ate a Greek chicken salad and I drank a lot of water.

I spent most of the evening proofing a set of report cards and that seemed to keep my mind off of the usual pre-bedtime snacking.


Au revior day two. Bring on day three!
