Lesson # 25 (and a Meal Plan)

Lesson from Day 25:
It feels good to be prepared.


Why, why, why, in the name of all that is good and pure, was I awake at 7am this morning?!!?? Today was a morning where I actually could have lounged around and slept for awhile. Damn you work and responsibility. You have turned me into someone who wakes up early.

Anyway. . .
Stephanie and I are undertaking a major Julia Child-esque cooking experiment this afternoon (more on that tomorrow). So, I need to clean, grocery shop, vacuum (there is enough dog hair on my floor to actually make a coat for a dog in need) and find the source of the horrid odor emanating from my refrigerator. I embraced the need to grocery shop for today's feast as an opportunity to make a list and actually shop for the week - before I take-on the aforementioned dirty jobs.

Thus, today's lesson. It feels good to be prepared.
