Day 275: Working in the Coal Mine

Sure going to back to work on Monday is bad but going back to work after five days off is nearly unbearable. Especially when you know that there is a pile of stuff with your name on it waiting for you. This can, and in fact did, cause some uncontrollable (you might say compulsive) pistachio eating.

Breakfast
2 slices of multigrain bread
peanut butter
tea

Snack
1/4 cup almonds/cashews
1 joy stick
65 pistachios

Lunch
Greek Salad with Grilled Chicken

Dinner
Pork Cutlets a la Emily
String Beans in Oyster sauce

Though getting back to a schedule is not exciting, it does have it comforts. It is good to be home and away from the 24 hour a day temptation of all that the New York area has to offer. It's also good to be back to the hi-speed computer access and our regular beds. You wouldn't think this would be helpful, but in fact it is.

Home is great....your own stuff is so comforting. The first day back is the hardest. Keep up the good work and watch those pistachios. Love, MOM
