Cold

I decided that since it's 17 degrees outside today with a windchill making it feel like 9...yes you read that right, NINE degrees, I am going to drink a cup of hot chocolate and NOT feel guilty about it. 5 points for a cup of hot chocolate was better than 13 for a White Mocha from good ol' Starbucks.

The state of Texas has announced a state wide emergency and has issued controlled rolling blackouts lasting 15-45 minutes throughout the day. Doesn't that sound lovely? So we're at work and the power has already gone out here twice but only for about 15 or 20 minutes at a time. I'm bundled up in my heavy jacket and have on fuzzy socks and boots with fur har-har.

Not sure how this is going to affect daycare but I haven't heard anything from them so I assume they've got power at the moment.

Anyway back to my diet. I still have 14 points for dinner but I'm afraid I've calculated my lunch wrong. Tonight we're going to Applebees and I hope I find a Weight Watcher meal I will enjoy. I've never eaten them there and I tend to get a pasta bowl when we go (pre-diet).

Hope you all stay warm and cozy today!
