Mmm.. oatmeal and flurries? .... by JustCallMeCow
This morning I woke up at around 7:30am. Not too shabby. I went to bed around 10:30 last night as I was absolutely exhausted. After my entry last night I made up a food list, got my clothes ready for today and went to bed to read a little bit. Brandon called around 10 and we talked for a few minutes before bed. Hopefully we’ll be getting together sometime this week and then this weekend. We shall see.
I feel so awesome right now. I just got out of the gym an hour ago. Both classes were awesome. You never realize how much you miss working out until you’ve been away for a decent amount of time. The way working out makes me feel can’t compare to the way anything else makes me feel. No amount of food or gambling could ever replace the feeling I get after a really intense kick boxing session. The next time I am inclined to hang out after work and skip the gym only to eat and gamble I had better think twice about what it will do for my mentally..
Hi ladies! Well, I’m late getting here today...it’s been a crazy Monday morning at the office.
The weekend was emotionally draining. We went out Friday night, which was fun. But came home to huge puppy messes. Saturday was spent at home, cleaning, laundry, etc. Went out for a couple hours to a friend’s house and played guitar and sang awhile...came home to more puppy messes.
Yesterday was the killer...we ended up having to take the puppy back to the adoption center. We are moving at the first of the year (we found an apartment we really like...no deposit, 6 month lease...that will be much better to wait out the house hunting that the landlord-hell we are currently in), and the puppy found his “big boy” voice...in English...we were going to get arrested because the neighbors were going to think we were killing a toddler.
Morning ladies! I am not ready for this week to begin, but unfortunately it isn’t up to me! We got one bit of good news this weekend. It looks like the union is telling the folks to approve the deal, so hopefully there will be no strike. Many of them are upset because they don’t get a signing bonus like the machinist, but they DO get nearly a 21% wage increase over the next 4 years. However rumor has it that they will be laying off scores of people next year. So who knows! I am just relieved that we won’t have to pay even more for health care.
My good friend came to visit on Sunday. I made a seafood chowder and we went out to the barn so she could see the new horses. Last time she was out her dd did NOT want to get off the horse, however this time she did NOT want to get on. She wanted nothing to do with DS pony, so I got out the big horse and her mom got on. Then she finally agreed to get on but only tenatively.
We did some supersonic cleaning Sun morning before she arrived so the house looks better. I still need to find my gumption to really scour the place. It is really a disaster. I just have no energy or inclination. LOL… obviously my nesting instinct has not kicked in!
I am trying to wean myself off the anti nausea pill. I can’t take the constipation any longer. Unfortunately… the nausea is still there. It is one of those damned if you do… damned if you don’t situations.
Well ladies… I better get going and hop in the shower. I hope you all have a great Monday!
I’m so over this weather that I could seriously just scream and stomp my feet. Now, I know some of you are freezing your tushes off, and well, I’d like to be right there with you.
Today was weigh in and i didnt lose anything. I went out to dinner last night with the hubster and gained back the 2lbs i had lost this week. Bad me! Then i felt really thirsty this morning. I should have known better. The goal for this week is to lose 4 lbs and next week 4 lbs so that way i can still reach my goal by the end of the month. Im keeping my fingers crossed and im going to work really hard at it to achieve it. Now i have to go look for my cellphone before i leave for work. I am forever losing that thing somewhere in this house.
Last night Brandons session did not get out until 2:30am. Needless to say we didn’t get to see eachother. He ended up staying at the studio and sleeping on the couch. I don’t know how he does it. I guess when you are that passionate about something you do what you have to do to stay in the game.. I was and am still bummed about it. The way things have been going we only really hang out on the weekends. Hopefully this week we’ll be able to get together. Dinner, a movie, coffee.. I don’t know.
Today has started out most horribly. I had a nightmare that DD and I were playing tag and she fell down a bunch of concrete steps head first. She was crying and I was devastated that I couldn’t stop it.
So I looked at what’s happened in the past 48 hours to bring this dream on. Then I remembered. I went to the skating arena on Friday for DD’s field trip. She put her skates on but she doesn’t know how to skate. She held on the rails the whole time. She was afraid of falling and to tell the truth, I was afraid too. She’s 7 years old and she weighs 120 pounds. About 40 pounds over what she should weigh for her height.
I just wanted to say thanks for the comments left on my last entry. I know I am being ridiculous when it comes to Brandon liking me and it was proven last night.
