My last whine for a while, I promise.  Last week was hormone hell but now that it is faded away I can start to think through things again.  I got a bit distracted with a romantic fantasy that has also faded away (thank goodness) and I am back to living my reality.
Which is, that I [...]

Last night I was cleaning out my closet and found a bikini I bought ages ago and never ever wore. (Obviously I have been scarily optimistic at certain points in my life.) I tried it on and took some pictures. I am still busting out in all directions but my gosh! I have some sort [...]

It is a grey cold day which fits my mood perfectly. Boy, I am whiney these days, aren’t I?
On the plus side:
- dog is all better, not sure what the problem was but I am betting he ate something off.
- I went for a long walk/run yesterday. It was longer than I planned [...]

Can I think of any other ways to avoid actually earning my paycheque? I have been surfing the online dating sites, playing scrabble, all the while knowing that from the hallway I look like I am intently working my way through the intimidating pile of overdue projects on my desk. Hah, she says, hah!
I am [...]

Oh well, this is the way my universe works. I get home from an expensive treat for myself to discover a) tenant’s bathroom has sprung a leak and b) dog might be really sick. And of course now I have no cash available…darn I hate being a grown up sometimes.
I am hoping dog just ate [...]

Now, there is NO WAY I have put on 7 pounds in 5 days. Mathematically impossible. Oh wait, m-a-t-h….that explains it. How the **&^ can it make sense if math is involved?
Back from my tres expensive but very fun Chicago weekend. Shopping as entertainment. Love it. Until the credit card bills arrive, but hey, like [...]

i am feeling really bad and I don’t know why. Yesterday was like a terrible PMS i-hate-the-world-keep the-weapons-locked-up kind of day, and I haven’t had one of those in a long, long time. It was like I was watching these horrible emotions just flow through me and it was all I could do to let [...]

Blues, got the blues. Got stuff hanging over my head, got promises I haven’t kept, got the lonesome lonesome blues.
Crap.
Oh well. It IS payday.

Home from a quick trip to the homestead for the long weekend. It was a good visit, lots of home-cooked food. I discovered that I seem to have lost my taste for sweet baked things BUT eating a big meal sent me into binge territory. Something about the feeling of being ’stuffed’ made me want even [...]

I know you will understand this - I am finally down to what was my previous ‘heaviest ever’ and it is kinda sad that I feel so good about it.
