I knew when I stepped on the scale this morning I would see an increase. Egg roll in a bowl with soy sauce...the soy sauce will do it every time! I had leftovers, but will not be having those for lunch. I read it freezes well; so I may try to freeze it. Also, between running errands and then we had an EMS call I didn't get to run. Today I have to make up for that. We have council meeting tonight so gotta squeeze everything in. This call was at the care facility and they did NOT even say "hey we think we may have an influenza outbreak". We got to the room and the door was closed. Thankfully a CNA came out and once I confirmed the room (and we started to enter) she asked did we want a face mask. The guy with me is like "no" and I am like "wait! Whyyyyyy are you asking us if we want a face mask". THEN she says well the guy next door (who by the way we had a call the night before and thankfully I listened to my gut and said no need to go there are others responding) tested positive for influenza this morning. Geez!!! Of course, now I am all freaked out that I am going to get sick. I did have my proper protective gear and a mask on and I am in the best health I have been in quite some time. So let's hope. They also didn't mention that the poor guy tested positive (and DIED!). Very sad about that.

So today I am thinking when I break my fast it will likely be with some spinach. DH ate the egg roll in a bowl and didn't complain that there was no rice. The salt he said he really liked and I am sure his body needs that extra saltiness right now. Also, he didn't say he was starving last night (after dinner) and needed no snacks. I am pretty sure he left his water bottle at home this morning and I will send one for him to keep at the office.

That is about it...I am going to get my water down and get rid of this bloating.
I hope you all have a great day and remember to be kind to yourselves.

Very positive journal. I'll hold good thoughts for you that you weren't exposed to anything. It's tough these days... part of me wants to wear a face mask anytime I'm in public because 'you just don't know' and the other part is grateful that .. and I'm just being a little flip (but not totally) ... I'm grateful that I was raised playing in dirt, eating tomatoes right out of the garden, drinking from a garden hose, traveling in airplanes surrounded by coughing people, driving rental cars, sleeping in hotels and the like ... not to mention countless hospitals and doctors with Cutty .. that I developed the immune system of a cockroach. I am rarely EVER sick. I have never gotten a flu shot and I cannot remember the last time I had the flu .. but I'm still superstitious enough to be knocking wood on that comment and crossing my fingers at the fate of Karma.

A good replacement for soy sauce (which I love as well) is Bragg's liquid aminos. Hope it goes well at work. Good news about your husband

@Jaime30024, THANK YOU for the invaluable service you perform for your community. One of my brothers is an EMT/firefighter. He was an EMT and volunteered at a suburban fire company since high school, but his dream was to combine his job and his volunteer service. Just before he aged out, having worked for 16 years as an EMT by his mid-30s, he "made the list" for a large county-wide EMT/firefighter service in another state. He and his wife (a nurse) immediately picked up stakes so he could have his shot. His first year as a firefighter, he could only observe other "qualified" EMTs. That kinda drove him crazy, since he's such a perfectionist, but he survived. He's now in his 11th year with that fire company. You are all heroes in my book!
