Cranky Pants

Wasn’t it just the other day that I was talking about how I am in such a good mood when the weather is nicer. I don’t know what my problem is today, I just felt off. I wasn’t hungry for anything and I seem to get this way a few times a month, no appetite, terrible mood, and just a general cranky feeling. I know with the weather being so hot and everything in bloom my sinuses have been a little crazy, and although it’s not a full blown sinus headache I definitely feel the pressure. All I wanted to do today was come home and go to sleep.

Today’s title should really be DON’T Eat Like Me.

For breakfast this morning I planned on having Vanilla Chobani with puffins, I knew once I got to work to not even waste the puffins because there was no way I was going to eat the whole container.

I was right I ate maybe half the container and then into the garbage it went.

I started to feel really fatigued so I ran out at lunch time to Dunkin Donuts to grab an iced coffee.

Medium iced coffee with skim milk and splenda. While I was there I picked up a multigrain bagel lightly tossed with a tiny bit of butter. They actually listened to me and put about the amount I would put on it.

I ate in my car because I was so cranky I couldn’t stand the idea of going back in to work.

Around 2:30 I realized I needed some fruit so I grabbed an orange.

In the middle of the orange was a baby orange!

Too cute, that made me smile for about 30 seconds.

After work I came right home and wallowed in my crankiness. I didn’t even know what I wanted for dinner so I didn’t start cooking until I felt some hunger kick in. Getting off the couch felt like such a chore. I finally made myself put some water to boil on the stove and had my go to comfort meal of pasta. I had whole wheat angel hair with too much sauce.
