Last night was I sooo tired and decided I didn't want to pack my lunch the night before. Since I've started working again I have been packing 3 lunches and making dinner the night before so the next day is as easy as it can be. I'll totally admit to being more than a little type A (exhibit a: the wipe board in our kitchen with our meals planned for the week). However, I just couldnt do it last night. It is HOT and we dont have AC in the kitchen and I still had a pile of ironing to do. Plus, PB&J sandwiches are gross the next day. I hate how the bread gets all soaked and mushy.
Well surprise surprise. I ran out of time this morning to make the damn sandwich. Not to mention the Little Man woke up with and obnoxiously runny/stuffy nose. UGHHH. He hasnt even been in daycare 2 full weeks and he's sick already!!! :( So I packed snacks and figured I'd just buy a sandwich.
Well, I dont know what I regret more, the ridiculously oily flatbread pizza I got (that I thought would be healthy because of all the veggies on it instead of the ceasar salad) or the $15 price tag. I went to a deli across from work but they wanted $10 for a sandwich and drink so I figured that if I'm going to pay that much I might as well get one of those delicious looking flatbreads from across the street. Who knew a diet coke would cost $2 and I'd have to tip because it was "sit down" lunch spot. NEVER AGAIN on either account.
So now I'm bummed about the exorbitant amount of calories I consumed, the $15 I spent, worried about the LM and his cold, not to mention his daily morning freak outs at daycare, and Dr. F's first month of internship with an excessive amount of call, the first day of which is on our anniversary. Bahhumbug. Hope youre having a better day!

Hang in there! You don't know how many times I've done the same thing (I pack for Patrick and I both each day), given up and ended up eating nasty chicken nuggets from the school cafeteria. At least you will be more motivated than ever to pack those sandwiches haha. Hope your day gets better!!
