February 5th

Today I got a little exercise again because of the snow. Eating not as good due to my anual bad eating during the supper bowl.

I did not get my breakfast I this morning. I got up and did some blogging and cleaning and before I knew it it was noon. I did have a few cups of coffee though. The exciting thing was I had them with no creamer in them just straight black. I am pretty happy I am doing that. I will still probably use creamer in the early morning before work but it is nice to know I don;t need loads of creamer n my coffee any more.

For lunch we had some grilled cheese sandwiches and some cheddar sun chips. It was a nice little pre-Super Bowl meal.

After lunch I changed the kitty litter and took it and the garbage from the kitchen out. Then I pulled on a sweatshirt and cleaned off the front step and scooped off the bottom of the driveway where the snowplow had left a nice wall of wet heavy snow for me. I counted the cleaning and then scooping as my exercise for the day.

After I got back in side I got some food ready for the Super Bowl. I threw some chicken wings in the crock pot, made some lemonade and browned a pound of hamburger and pork sausage to put on our pizzas we were making later. Then I sat around and watched Super Bowl Pre-game the rest of the day.

About 4:30 a friend of ours came over to watch the Super Bowl with us. He has been having a tough time in his personal life so we spent the first half watching the game and commercials, munching on our snacks and talking with him. During the first half I had five chicken wings, plate dip and ships and M&Ms. I also had a few glasses of beer I got for Christmas. Then at half time I made two pizzas. One was a peperoni and pork sausage pizza, the other was a pepperoni and hamburger pizza. The both turned out great. I had three piece of the pork sausage pizza and one piece of the hamburger pizza and a can of beer. Then we watched the rest of the game and tried to keep our friend in good spirits until he left.

Over all it was a nice night but a little on the depressing side. I felt bad for my friend but glad that I had a wonderful wife who loves me through all the difficult time we have been through in the last year.
