Weekend Update and Weekly Menu

I have been worthless this weekend. Seriously, worthless.
We went out Friday night with our friends/neighbors for drinks and a snack. I don't know if it was the two dirty martinis I let them talk me into (probably) or if I got a 24 hour bug, but by the time I got home Friday night, I was sick as a dog. Granted, I drank too much. I could feel it and I HATE that feeling!
Yesterday morning was bad. I won't go into detail, but just know that I was miserable. I didn't get out of bed all day. Not even to shower.
Today I'm a little better. I did get up this morning and take a shower and put on a clean set of pajamas. I'm so very weak so even that took it out of me.
I was able to eat something today without losing it completely. I'm sure I lost about 3 pounds yesterday.
So, I'm starting to feel human again.
Nick was sweet enough to run to the store and get enough for us to get by the next two days. I will hit the commissary on Tuesday since it's closed tomorrow. I have a feeling I have a lot to catch up on tomorrow here at home.
I just browned some ground beef and threw a can of manwhich in while cooking frozen tater tots in the oven. Don't judge me, it's the best I could do tonight! Not to mention this meal is always a hit with the boy.
The rest of the week's menu:
Monday: The Pioneer Woman's Chicken Spaghetti and broccoli
Tuesday: Lasagna Soup from the Gooseberry Patch book
Wednesday: Corned Beef and Cabbage (Nick has been asking for this for weeks, don't ask me why)
Thursday: Jennifer's Slow Cooker San Francisco Pork Chops
Friday: Michelle's Loaded Baked Potato Soup (I've been wanting to try this forever)
Maybe it's the weather, or maybe it's the fact that I feel like dog poo, but I'm craving easy, slow cooker or one pot dishes. I need comfort food.
Here's what having a sick momma does to the house
This is only one shot and it was after I picked up Alex's shoes, the popcorn bowl they shared last night, and the stack of movies the boy wanted Dad to watch last night.  I didn't have the energy to go upstairs and take a photo of the overflowing laundry basket. I made sure Nick and Alex have something to wear tomorrow and I'm fine with that. Tomorrow is another day..right, Scarlett?

Today I...

...was supposed to go shopping with my girlfriends.
...woke up with a terrible sore throat and stuffy head so I cancelled my shopping trip.
...didn't get showered or dressed until 2:30
...only put on yoga pants and a sweatshirt when I did get dressed.
...gave myself a facial then didn't put on make up the whole day. (does putting a mask on your face qualify  as a facial?)
...did busy work like paying bills and making phone calls
...made a delicious chicken/corn/cheese chowder in the crockpot
...am thinking of going to bed already and it's not even 9:00
...am thinking I need to feel better because I'm going to see the Rockettes tomorrow!

Happy early weekend.
