…which has nothing to do with my diet or weight for once!
It has been a tough week.. and it’s only Wednesday, which makes me wonder what else is in store for the rest of the week. Sunday we discovered that the guest room/nook area didn’t have any power. Tried a new breaker - didn’t work. So now it’s a goose hunt to find bad or loose wiring. Why they used one wire for that huge area is beyond me, since even the guest bathroom is on its own wire. Whatever. It’s just annoying. Monday, my husband turned on his uber-expensive laptop and got the blue screen of death. He tried several times to get past it, but it shuts down before he can get Windows to boot up. Surprisingly, he’s taking this all in stride with a good sense of humor. This sort of stuff stressed me out, so I’m glad DH is being level-headed about it.
Yesterday we ended up going to Panera. I had half of a 1/2 cobb salad (170 cals) and a cup of french onion soup (210 cals). I stayed within cals, but man that stuff is loaded with sodium. Plus I had Thai hot and sour soup yesterday for lunch, which didn’t help!
The big news is that my brother told us that they are having a baby in February (just found out yesterday). This should be awesome news, but I loathe my SIL for a loooot of reasons. The gist of it is that she is very controlling and has said some stuff to my family that just shocks me that any sane person would act this way. My brother has NO friends and will only see me whenever she’s in Denver visiting her family - and then he won’t tell her! Doesn’t that seem weird? Ugh. I am pretty sure she hates me.
So, my heart sank when he told us. I should be happy. I want to be happy. But I’m sad. At least I didn’t take it out on food. I didn’t get to run at all yesterday.. got home and had to get everything set up with our new bedroom set. Then we ran to Wally World for some errands before dinner. I have a dentist appointment after work today, but it’s at 4 so I have to stay an extra hour at work before leaving since it’s on this side of town. So I’m thinking about running at lunch time. I brought all of my stuff, so it’s just a matter of removing my butt from the desk and going.
because I want a house and child too! It passes though.
