Okay…that last photo shouldn’t be there. At all. Two weeks I’ve eaten clean (aside from the tortilla chips at the party and earlier in the day) and then hubby made the mistake of mentioning he was thinking about John’s Lunch and funnily enough for the first time in two weeks I was thinking of something other than my meal plan food and the more he talked about it and teased me about it and the more I resisted his good natured teasing, the more I kept thinking about it. I’m not going to say it was a craving, I’m not going to say I caved. I had something not on my meal plan that I don’t typically eat and after two whole weeks of eating healthy foods (hey, check out my photos, there’s the proof) I think this one meal is not going to kill me. Sure, it was far more grease than I anticipated eating when I woke up and it was definitely more calories than I anticipated consuming but it tasted good. Well, at first. By the end it was a love/hate relationship – tasted good at first but then the more you eat the grosser you feel and by the end you remember why you vowed not to eat it again for another six months like you did six months ago. So…over and done with.
We spent a lazy day at home just hanging out as a family. It was so nice to have hubby home. I know the boy misses him as much as I do when he works so much and it just makes me treasure our family time together that much more. I love it when the boy does something funny and we’re both there to laugh over it instead of me witnessing it and wishing hubby were here to see it too.
I was able to get some major photo editing done because hubby was home to take care of the boy so I had uninterrupted time at the computer and I was happy to complete the editing on the two shoots I had sitting on my to do list, got them uploaded to a previewing site and then discs made. I also was able to edit the birthday party photos. This was a huge load off my shoulders and so now I currently don’t have any photography work backlogged. What a wonderful feeling! All of this editing was before I realized my SD camera card malfunctioned (first time since I started this in 2006) and I was freaking out. Luckily some googling led me to a miracle program that not only salvaged my “lost” photos but it actually was able to retrieve photos from months ago that I had actually deleted from the card…bizarre. Anyway, the point is it found the photos I thought were gone forever and I breathed a huge sigh of relief and didn’t throw up like I thought I was going to :-)
In the evening we skyped the inlaws and hubby also talked on the phone with his sister in Gatineau. All in all, a busy but great weekend.
