It didn't really take too long, I had it made in about 20-25 minutes. It helped that the onions were already chopped in my fridge. Your Cheerios sounds okay to me too, but hubby wants more "substance" for dinner. We usually do Cheerios for breakfast though.

Guys always want something more substantial for dinner, because they're guys! :p During the week, I just like lighter fare. Hubby will sometimes cook a bigger meal for himself. (I also have dinner at noon each day, in the cafeteria at the hospital where I work. So when I come home at night, I only eat light.) Weekends are the only time I actually cook full meals.

So what should I eat for dinner? Too lazy to cook to night. Suggestions?
I keep French bread pizza (the Stouffer's kind) in the freezer when I'm feeling particularly lazy. It's pretty good, much better than regular frozen pizza IMO, definitely better than pizza you get at QS WDW locations, and it doesn't take long in the oven. I just add a little extra cheese to it.

My mom keeps chopped chicken in the freezer. It+lettuce+croutons+Parmesan cheese+caesar dressing=chicken Ceasar salad. Or chicken+lettuce+salsa+sour cream+cheese=Mexican salad. You could probably do the same thing with Tofu if you wanted. Or beans. I sometimes take the container of chicken, heat it up at school, and bingo, I've got lunch.

So...my day.

Woke up, still had yesterday's migraine.
Came out, found car with a low tire, had to put more air in the tire before heading off to class.
Hit a ton of traffic, was late to class, no thanks to that tire.
Still had the migraine.
Got to chorus (at around 12:15), walked through cloud of perfume, stopped breathing
After a failed nebulizer treatment, security called 911, got to ride in ambulance
Still at the emergency room, though I am once again breathing. I'm hoping to get out of here this evening
And the migraine is still there, my car is at school, and it took forever to even get in touch with my mom (who is still not here).
I missed Spanish class. And chorus.

This is not my day. Or week.

Oh no. So very sorry to hear about your bad day.
Hopefully it improved, and you're feeling much better, now...! :)

So did mine. She does regret not following up with that specialist in Houston, though

My school. They released me about an hour ago. Thankfully when I need to go to the ER, my doctor has it figured out what to do so that I can get in and out of there quickly. He thought about it two years ago and it works wonders, but the problem is that it has to be administered at an ER.

So six hours, 40 mg of oral steroids, two nebulizer treatments, and one heliox treatment (similar to nebulizer, but with helium) later, I can breath. At least no IVs.

And I still have a migraine.

Oh, and this was the other fun part: could not get in contact with my parents. Tried calling Mom ten times on her cell phone. Sent her a text on her iPad and her phone and tried the house phone four or five times. After they put me in the ambulance, security got in touch with her. Then when I got to the hospital, I had to ask for a phone because there was no cell phone signal, and then I was able to call her. There was no sense in calling Dad. If I called his office, no one would be able to understand me over the phone when I can barely breath, and the man won't answer his phone.:banghead: If I had been thinking clearly, would have called my aunt, but asthma inhibits my ability to think clearly.

Glad you're home!

Blah, and without a signal that sure omits text messages. I wonder if there is a blocker in the ER Room?

They said nope; just poor cell service. If you had an iPhone, I guess you could send texts through iMessage since there was Wifi, but my mom doesn't have an iPhone, and her iPad was at home, so sending her a text through iMessage on my iPod would not have worked. Not that she answered the texts I had been sending her that said, "Mom, I'm in trouble, asthma". I insisted on getting a phone since none of my family knew what was going on. They miraculously found one.

I'm not surprised; the hospital is near my other school, and reception over there is terrible, especially inside the buildings. I have to go near a window or outside at my other school to make a phone call.

My yard has had a rabbit, beaver, toad, and now a possum living in it. A couple years ago, a deer walked down the road. I don't even live in the rural part of town either.

We are having a real coyote problem. They are just wandering the roads over night, they don't even get out of the way of the sheriff cars overnight. We have had the same bunny for at least 5 years. We had a possum take up residency in our garage for 4 days, couldn't find him. One night at dusk my DH opened garage and he was looking out the window and eventually left and hid under a car in our driveway. Never left the garage door open after dusk again. We get deer every couple years. Last one kept hopping over the fences from property to property. We are a block and a half from a preserve that is massive. Why they can't just live in nature?

Oh wow! It has been 10 years since we have had spots like that. I use to run into it in Central Illinois between the areas of my sons University and my DD's University. So did your Mom just not have her cell with her? My Mom is so helpful, she calls me and if I miss the call she shuts her phone off. She only turns on her cell if she is going to use it. :banghead::facepalm::in pain:

Hahaaa...! :hungry:
I wish I had a box a' Girl Scout cookies for every hour I spent, over the course of a decade, out in front of Walmart, Shoe Carnival, Hollywood Video, etc., watchin' our DDs sell those things...!!! :joyfull: :D ;) :)

My DD made it out of Brownies so we only sold cookies to friends and family. My DS never made it past Tiger Cubs.

She was at lunch with my dad and didn't hear her phone.

She said she used to put the phone on the table when I was in high school in case she got any calls from me. But she didn't do that today.

I sometimes get annoyed with her because she doesn't answer her cell phone. She goes next door for whatever reason and doesn't put the phone in her pocket. She goes outside to do yard work and doesn't put the phone in her pocket. She doesn't bother to periodically check it to make sure that no one's texted her, so sometimes it takes her days to answer a text. But then she gets annoyed with me when I don't immediately answer a text or if I don't hear my phone. When we were in Disney and I didn't hear my phone but checked it and called her back within 5 minutes, she complained about how worried she was. I told her that since she doesn't answer her phone a lot that she had no room to lecture me about not hearing one phone call in a noisy environment, especially since I thought to check my phone in case she had called. Heck, I check my phone for texts from her periodically throughout the day. She wanted to continue, but my dad backed me up on that one. I love my mom, but sometimes she's unreachable, and that's a real issue. My dad is easier to contact in an emergency, which is sad because he hates cell phones. But my dad doesn't know asthma. I need my mom when I'm in trouble because Dad doesn't have a clue. I also try not to bother my dad at work unless absolutely necessary, like when I had a problem with my car on the way to school one time last year and couldn't get hold of Mom. He had a client with him and ended up stepping aside to deal with me that time. Good daddy, and the client understood. He's not well versed in asthma, though.

I should have called my aunt today. She had to deal with my great grandmother's asthma (my family is the history of asthma FYI) so she's well versed in asthma, and she probably would have answered her phone and been down there right away. But I didn't think about it until I was breathing again. Asthma makes me not think clearly. I call it asthma brain. Even when it's not horrible, I make dumb little mistakes that I wouldn't normally make.
