So, it’s flooding here in Houston. Fortunately, it’s not flooding HERE, and if the low will move off as predicted, hopefully it won’t approach the levels of Tropical Storm Allison.

It’s also my 4th child’s 4th birthday. He’s having a good day so far, in spite of the rain. We gave him one of his presents before his party, so he spent some time for a while this morning playing his Dora Plug n Play game with his brothers and sister. There’s a new Backyardigans on this morning, so that’s a big thrill.

Now, onto the food…

I’m doing well so far with the 3 Hour Diet, and I did do my 8 Minutes in the Morning today. We’ll see how the rest of the day goes.

breakfast: yogurt and granola

lunch: cheese sandwich, gazpacho

snack: nuts

dinner: macaroni and cheese, yellow squash with onions, tomatoes with basil and balsamic vinegar, one small piece of birthday cake (really, just one)

snack: 2 tsp. peanut butter, handful of pretzels (I came close to making it 3 hours before bedtime, but the one year old decided he was going to take over an hour to go to sleep, so I think it will be more like 2 hours until I go to bed.)

exercise: 8 Minutes in the Morning exercise, chest and shoulders; I didn’t make it to the gym tonight because I have a splitting headache, plus birthday and weather interfered with the original plans
