2 dogs & a lady

Yesterday I made some changes. I was in the lunchroom and a few of us were talking about the governments Do Not Call List and how they were selling that list to telemarketers. Kind of defeats the entire do not call thing hmm? I digress, I made the remark about Citi calling me every bloody night..of course it is a pita..so I said I will fix that. I just cut up the credit card I have of theirs. I am sure they are trying to either sell me card insurance or some other thing..and I do not want that. So this will fix that. Then as I was thinking of it, I said to heck with this, I have plans to renovate that do not include credit cards, so I cut up my main and only other one. *shudder* People thought I was nuts, cutting them up. I started it as an angry thing with the card company, but ended it feeling so much better. Funny how taking control of something can make that difference. I spoke to the other half suggesting he also cut at least one of his up. No reply. Typical. he has them because I handle his finances and make sure he doesn’t miss a payment and he thinks it is all his work so therefore doesn’t want to lose them. The goof.

 

   The 2nd thing. I have been reading a few blogs that really made sense to me. Not that others haven’t, just every now and then a few resonate deep within and you say AHA or I feel you sister! Happy Hags was one I read this morning about the ATE 8 88 etc. I was with her all the way. And I went proactive about it. I opened my fitday tracker, and started it up again. I think being aware of exactly how many calories I intake.consume helps me not intake/consume those damned Mars bars etc. I do not even like them so why in the heck am I eating them????? So this will help. Today I called in sick. I said my knees were bad today. I haven’t had a sick day in a long time..and I am going to use it pro-actively. I am also going to finish the book  A Million Little Pieces. I don’t care what oprah says etc. I find it an intense book that has me gripped. It is also the reason I was  reading in bed until after 11pm  when I went to bed at 8pm!!!
