Happy Monday everyone! Another week is here. This weekend was busy again.... the story of my life.


 

Saturday, I took an all day class that focused on parenting a child with anxiety. All 3 of my kids (and myself) deal with anxiety so it was a very informative class and I am glad that I took it. 


When I got home, I took Rebecca and her best friend Felix out to Dollar Tree and to Fiesta Mexicana for dinner. I love being around my kids' friends. This child is like my 4th child. 


Sunday, I went to mass and taught PSR. Then it was off to my nephew's band concert. It was a good concert and since it is a small school district, it was a short concert. My nephew really is enjoying playing the saxophone. 

Now it is on to another week...I HAVE to get back to meal planning and following my plan. I need to lose some weight and am pondering that for Lent... we shall see. What I can start with is menu planning so let's see what is on the menu.....  

*************************************************************************

What we ate this past week:

                                        
SUNDAY: Bratwurst, green beans and mac-n-cheese


MONDAY: Made bacon cheeseburger soup and rolls. Was a new recipe that was just okay. 

TUESDAY:: No picture, but crazy day meant McDonald's for dinner. 

WEDNESDAY: Homemade subs and pineapple (kids also had chips)

THURSDAY: Honestly, it was another McDonald's day. I got my once a year Shamrock shake. No picture again. 

FRIDAY: Pizza night from Dominos. They were having sale so I ordered. 

 
SATURDAY: Went out for Mexican with Rebecca and her best friend. 

It was an eating out heavy week. Sometimes weeks are like that. I need to reign it in though. Lent is coming up and I am contemplating eating out among other things.

  1. Enjoy your time with Rebecca. These last few months before college go so fast.

  2. Some weeks are just like that with the eating out. Parenting class sounds interesting, probably would've helped around here a few years ago. Your meals this week sound good. We're mainly planning on making good use of the grill for our meals. Hope you have a wonderful week!

  3. From what you are going through, I would be surprised if you all were not anxious. I hope the class helps.
