Back to the basics.

As my sweet Other Mothers are reminding me, I've got to go back to the basics this month. Breathe in. Breathe out. Eat, drink, pee, repeat. 

I've never stopped with the "grown up sippy cup" of water.  (Thanks, World Market for the 32 oz tumbler with lid and straw. It has been the only thing between me and dehydration for 2 months and 26 days.) At the beginning I had to have someone fill it and put it in my hand. Now I fill multiple cups multiple times per day. I have a tendency to lose them within the house. 

Naked Juice protein drink reminds me of the Slim Fast shakes in college. I even put mine in the blender today with ice, just to relive that sensation. And it starts my day with protein even when I don't think I can eat. 

Tonight I went to Noodles and Company to pick up dinner. Somehow I didn't know a dad from school manages the place. His daughter played volleyball with both of my girls. He got our dinner for us tonight. 

Breathe. Eat. Drink. Pee.

And someone watching over to help me remember to do it. 

That's back to the basics.
