Back to Life as Normally Scheduled

We just spent a few days "Up North" in Traverse City, MI with my parents and my aunt. My parents rented a condo at a resort and we basically hung out for 3 days or so. Ella got to swim, I got to eat fresh lake perch, and dad got to golf. Everyone is rested!

Ella and I have a few more days in Michigan before we head back to Vegas. I am not looking forward to the flight or to the weather (although it should start cooling off a bit now). I am looking forward to seeing my hubby after a 3 week absence!! I didn't think I would miss him this much, but then the last time we spent more than a few nights apart we got engaged the minute we were both back in the same place again.

I also have to get back to meal planning. I am not feeling sick anymore from the pregnancy, but I don't really have much energy to cook or think about food. I ran across this neat little website today called e-Mealz. For $5/month they will send you a menu with 7 dinners and a shopping list based on the store sales (Wal-Mart, Kroger, etc) or nutrition plan (low fat, WW Points, etc) you chose. I still think I can do a menu for a cheaper bottom line, but to be able to print out a shopping list and hand it to my husband....hmmm....I'm thinking for this period of late pregnancy and then a new baby in the house, this may be the thing that keeps us from getting take out and busting our budget.
