Today was a good day. I had two major temptations today. The first was at work where everyone decided to unload their holiday goodies but in order to resist it, I didn't look at the table to see what all was on it. I figured if I didn't know, then I wouldn't feel like I was missing out on anything. It worked. :) The second time was this evening. I was still hungry after dinner for some reason; I think I was probably just thirsty versus hungry since I didn't drink as much water as I'd hoped to have drank today. We still have a bit of candy/chocolate leftover from the stockings. I scoped it out once but decided that it wasn't worth it. Especially since I spent quite a bit at the grocery store on fresh produce and healthy snacks. I instead focused on making some yummy banana-oatmeal muffins for breakfast this week and getting the kitchen cleaned up. I did end up sampling the muffins though but I tracked them. After all, I had to make sure that they were edible before packing them up tomorrow. ;)

I was ready a post on BabyCenter yesterday that got me thinking about something as simple as coffee creamer. I know it seems silly but I don't want to waste points on creamer but yet I have to have it in my coffee. I decided to try vanilla flavored almond milk. I've heard good things about it plus the stuff I bought has mostly natural ingredients in it and best of all 2 tablespoons is ZERO points! :) I haven't tried it yet but I'm packing some up for work tomorrow and I'll report back with my thoughts tomorrow.

On a side note/vent, my husband if flat pissing me off. Since I was on break from school last month, I have tried to step it up by cooking more and working on keeping the house in order. He has not, although he hasn't scrapped doing everything altogether. Tonight all he did was bathe Collin and put him to bed. I did everything else, including grocery shopping on my lunch hour, cooking dinner, making the muffins, and cleaning up the kitchen. He is now sleeping on the damn couch. >_< I guess I can't complain too much because I did doze off myself for about 45 minutes tonight but by golly I got up and finished what I needed to. He's been either playing the Wii or watching football, in addition to napping. He's in for a rude awakening tomorrow. Since I didn't work on any homework tonight, he's cooking and taking care of everything tomorrow. *evil grin*
