“This is the start of a difficult day.” Poppy has told me that at least four times this morning. She’s only been up for four hours. There’s some truth in what she says, though. Last night my throat started to hurt. And this morning I woke up with a full-blown cold, complete with a vocal range that moves from Very Croaky to Entirely Nonexistent. I don’t know that her day’s been all that difficult, though. The kids get to watch far too much TV when I’m sick.
On the bright side, at least now I kind of have an excuse for not going out into the broiling hotness that’s been our weather lately. Anyway, it’s a good that I’d already planned The Laziest Menu Plan Ever for this week. Here ’tis:
- Monday: Breakfast for dinner.
- I had an omelet for breakfast this morning. I’ll probably have another tonight!
- Tuesday: McAlister’s Deli.
- Tuesday is Kids Night at our McAlister’s, which means the kids will eat free. If I’m still feeling rotten tomorrow, we’ll probably get take-out.
- Wednesday: Undecided.
- We’re supposed to have dinner at a friend’s on Wednesday, but I’d rather not infect them. So we’ll see.
- Thursday: Fish sticks and mac & cheese
- The kids will undoubtedly be excited about this one.
- Friday: Pizza.
I hope you feel better soon. It’s no fun when Mama’s sick and the kids are healthy. Not that you would want them to be sick…but for them to have a bit less energy and need more sleep for a few days would be helpful.

Is it wrong that I long for the times when I felt good about having fish sticks and mac’n’cheese for dinner?
McAlisters is my favorite place to eat! I am addicted to their sweet tea. Like I get a gallon every 2 days addicted! It’s bad. I need an IV….. As a matter of fact, I am drinking a glass at this moment!
Hello, my name is Crystal and I am a McAlisters sweet tea addict. Please do not judge me.
Hope you feel better soon!
