I look forward to actually being able to fast today.  I have been so busy I have not fasted for a few days.
     I just got back from taking my oldest daughter to the dentist for double root canals.  Before she came to us she had an accident where her two front top teeth were broken by another child's head smashing into her mouth.  We found out recently that those teeth and at least one more were so traumatized that they had slowly been dying off.  Well, one of the teeth that was broken and the tooth to the right of it died.  Today was the beginning of the repair of those two teeth.  Ugh.  Two hours in the dentist chair and she will have to go back two more times before it will be done.  She is such a trooper!
     I am looking forward to my time with the Lord today.  I feel weary and dry.

Here is my plan for today:
Breakfast:  2 slices toast w/ 2 T. all fruit jam & 8 oz milk
Lunch:  fasting
Dinner:  1 slice of lasagna & veggies
Snacks:  1/4 c. peanuts, a clementine & popcorn w/ 1 T coconut oil  **I also had 5 brazil nuts. The fat in them is supposed to help with my memory and brain function.
Exercise:  I walked three miles today.
Weight:  142.5 lbs. I need to lay off the chocolate and chocolate chip cookies!!
