    Haha, @Bex953172 I went to the college the other morning and found out that I dont need to take any more classes. So I'm graduating in May! Also, doing a second interview at the bank...so there is a very good likelihood that I will be getting it!

    Aww, poor @Bex953172 I feel bad for you! I don't know how I would be giving myself a shot. Probably not so good. Maybe just aim, close my eyes and shoot! Hope you feel better soon, and enjoy little Casey.

    I google anything I don't know (replaces the encyclopedia set I remember as a kid). Found this for good sources of iron:

    Liver
    Meat, fish and tofu
    Iron-fortified breakfast cereals or bread
    Eggs
    Pulses and beans
    Nuts and seeds
    Dried fruit - such as dried apricots, prunes and raisins
    Wholegrains - such as brown rice
    Soybean flour
    Most dark-green leafy vegetables - such as watercress and curly kale

    JFT, 3/1/18

    1. Log all food! :)
    2. Focus on water(2-32oz) :|Still got some time before bed
    3. Up at 7/usual routine/measurements/yoga(maybe) :)Everything but measurements. Gonna do it tomorrow
    4. Meet R at 930 for our weekly breakfast :)Was super early because I overestimated how long it would take to get there
    5. Have an AWESOME time with R :)It was short but fun. L was restless and rambunctious. No other kids were there to play with
    6. Spend time with DH before he leaves for work/Make lunch :) Spent like 2 hours together. Almost forgot to put his lunch together. Lol
    7. Meal plan/Shopping list(because I can afford food this week! Lol) :)Made a list of everything in my pantry cabinet. I always buy multiples of things I already have multiple of! (ex. 6 cans stewed tomatoes)
    8. Do a prelim of March budget :)Did a very basic one because I dont know why my salary will be at the bank or when I will be paid.
    9. Read/Nap(maybe) :/Nope. I really should have but I think I might just pass out on the couch watching the game when I finish this post
    10. LIBRARY!!!! :/3 Loads of laundry instead
    11. Dinner(Leftovers)/Dishes(2x) :)Had a late lunch and a pint of ice cream at dinner time. Lol. At least it's all logged. Lol
    12. Pens Game(send updates to DH) :)Doing this now. I have a feeling it's going to be a high scoring game. 6 goals between the 2 teams in 15 minutes!
    13. Bed by 12 :)Probably earlier. I might only spend like a half an hour up with the DH

    So I wrote this whole post but my computer gave me my first blue screen on this one. So a rundown, meeting tomorrow with the branch manager for the job, really really missing the DH tonight, feel like crap. That's about what I was going to say only with more detail. Lol.

    Onto my list for tomorrow,

    JFT, 3/2/2018

    1. Log all food
    2. 64 oz water

    5. MEASURE
    6. Aldi's
    7. DH time
    8. Bank meeting

    10. Wash towels and bedding
    11. LIBRARY
    12. Read/Nap

    @Bex953172 Red meat is the best I think. Also apparently vitamin C is good because it increases your propensity to actually absorb iron from other foods. So, nice oranges/satsumas, etc? Hope you feel better soon

    Aha! Yes!
    The midwife said to take my iron with orange juice as it helps
    But I have vitamin C in the cupboard! So I will take it with that x

    Missed you all & welcome newcomers!

    I didn't post for 2 days which is not a good thing for me. I need the accountability.
    Eastern Massachusetts is getting pummeled w/a bad coastal storm. Making me nervous!
    Not walking dog (maybe later if wind dies down).
    Do exercises at home & house clean.
    Meditate 25 mins this afternoon
    Listen to a podcast & read for inspiration.
    Drink water-64oz min.
    Track all my meals today.
    Low carb/high protein. goal 150 grams.
    Possibly pick up some veggies at grocery store.
    Plan weekend meals.
    Early to bed.


    Have a great day!

    So it's just after 10 am here and like @Saragirl2 We are getting pummeled with the same storm. I think we are at the tail end of it though. It's just a miserable day out. It's snowing/sleeting/raining here and in the upper 30s. My driveway is flooding pretty terribly. The hazards of living a 1/4 mile in the woods along a dirt road! Lol.

    But I have to start getting ready for my meeting soon. I'm not gonna shower because I did that last night and I've done my hair already. Just need to change, put on makeup and brush my teeth...not necessarily in that order. Lol.

    I hope everyone is having a great day! I'll be on later to let you know how my meeting went!
