I gave in and had a diet soda this week because I was thirsty and the pharmacy I was at didn't have any seltzer. I apparently still hate diet soda.

I also need to be a bit more realistic in what I can do for meals because I keep ending up with stuff going bad or languishing in my freezer.

I'm terrible at this as well. I need to clean out the freezer of really old stuff before ltc's arrival and maybe freeze some batches of things I know we'll use like various pasta sauces.

I had ideas about what I was going to do but lately even cooking frozen vegges that don't come in the steamer bag seems like too much effort.

which makes me feel lazy but it's just me trying to allocate resources.

Frozen dinners and soup. That's my fallback. I keep telling myself, I'll cook this, and then it goes bad because I don't.

No judgement here. Despite the fact that my morning sickness is mostly gone, TCG is still doing almost all the cooking because I'm so lazy. We usually buy the big resealable bag of frozen veg and throw whatever we need in a corning ware dish in the microwave.

I'm sorry, Windsparrow. I wish our cats could understand when we're trying to help them.

I get limited with the frozen dinners. I need to go by the larger grocery store on my way back from my therapist. Between the limited selections here and the no tomatoes, msg, spicy, citrus, and soy it for the IC it can be really frustrating to find things.

Who was it over in Natter who said that kale just transforms itself into guilt while it's sitting in your fridge, wilting? That's what happens to us. Buy food, intend to cook it, say "fuck it" and go out instead.

Yeah, I composted three brown heads of romaine lettuce today. I suppose I might have eaten it, but it was hiding behind the celery and broccoli (which I did eat, at least, mostly because broccoli entails butter in my home).

I spent the afternoon going through dome of the boxes that are cluttering up what will be ltc's room. As a result, I'm full of self loathing for do many different things. I think I'm going to take a nap and hope it clears my head a bit.

Kale lasts forever, kinda why I like it. You can open a bag and use a handful at a time for a week or so before it goes funky. Spinach turns weird quicker.

Oh and with the GI side effects of the Lithium I have to stay away from really fatty and greasy foods otherwise I need to be sure I can get to a restroom. My psych Nurse practioner said the probiotics I was taking should help with that so I need to remember to take them.

I found that ricotta cheese seems to be okay. But I treated myself to a burger at applebees after I got out of the hospital and that was...not a wise choice.
