My back is killing me today - not constant but a certain way I move it grabs me. I think I slept twisted the other night, thats what started it, then last night when I was helping that lady clean she decided she wanted to rearrange her bedroom furniture so we did that and it didn’t help my back any. I took 2 Advil, hopefully they will kick in soon. I ended up cleaning for 3 hours last night, not bad and easy money. I think I’m going to take the money and try to buy myself a black purse this weekend. I’ve been looking for one for a while now and haven’t been able to find any that I like. Even though I didn’t “officially” exercise last night, I got some in with the cleaning and it showed up as a 1.4 pound loss on the scale this morning. Yay! Gotta’ keep it moving in the right direction.
Some of the clothes that I had altered like a month ago are almost too loose to wear again. Now that I look back I wish I’d have just both new clothes instead of paying $200 to have them altered. Live and learn. One thing is that she didn’t take a couple of the things in far enough and another couple pounds lost on top of that and they aren’t fitting right again. Its too expensive to buy dressy clothes for work plus casual clothes for outside of work. Now that I went down a little in size it is a little bit easier to find stuff that will fit me in second hand stores to get me by until I can afford other good stuff. 40 pounds ago I couldn’t find anything to fit me in the thrift stores. Wonder why there are so many fat people walking around but no plus sized clothes in the thrift stores. Hmm… Hopefully soon I will be out of plus size. What is the cut off for plus? 14?
Yesterday I was kinda thinking about if I will ever find another man. LOL. I’ve been single for over 2 1/2 years (after being with the same man for 18 years) and haven’t been on one date since. I’m not that bad, I have a good job, I’m independant, which should hopefully be attractive to a guy, I’m a good housekeeper and a good cook, I don’t drink (only socially) or smoke, I’m 41 years old, not that old. (Who am I trying to convince here? LOL) I don’t want to be by myself for the rest of my life. I’d just like to find someone to date and not live with. Someone to just go do something with and then go back to my own house at the end of the night or if they get on my nerves. LOL. But then again, once you start dating someone then they are going to start expecting sex and all that business, which I’m not up for right now, so IDK. I’m kinda torn between being okay by myself and wanting a little companionship.
I need to get myself in gear with losing more weight so I can get someone half decent when the time comes. LOL. I mean, I don’t want someone that is fat and gross so why would someone want me fat and gross, you know? I’d like to find someone that is kinda into fitness and healthy eating so we can do this together, someone that I can learn from. Not someone who parks it on the couch with a remote, chips and ice cream. So, to attract the kind of man I’d like to have, I need to become the kind of woman that a man like that would want, right? I have my work cut out for me. 
LOL. I also need to get out of the house to meet people. I’m not going to meet anyone if I stay home all the time. I’m not a very social, outgoing person so that is a little weird for me.
Oh well, I guess I’ll just keep working on myself and hopefully, when the time is right, I will attract the right person. I’ve been feeling old lately, I guess thats what got me thinking about all of this stuff.
Looks like it will be a slow, easy day at work today and only one glorious day until FRIDAY! Yee haw!
