Attempt number three!!!
 

Hey Chickies!

I have done two pretty long posts over the last few days and they have all gotten lost in cyberspace and I didn't have the time or energy to re do them...sorry girls...

This week has been very busy with car maintenance...rescuing baby birds...lots of errands and dealing with massive fatigue...oh...don't forget spats with DH and massive emotional eating! :barf: (Didn't actually throw up but sure was nauseous and miserable...)

But! Things are definitely looking up anyway! Yesterday was very good...and I have found a book that just may have changed my life. (I am really not exaggerating!!!) Have any of you guys read the book Potatoes Not Prozac? It's by Kathleen DesMaisons... I picked it up at the library a few days ago and haven't been able to put it down! It is basically a food/addiction plan for people who are "sugar sensitive" I tell you...it was like seeing myself in almost all the pages...it was almost spooky... I am going to buy the book and start working the plan (it has 7 steps...sorta like OA I guess but from a biochemical stand point...) I am optimistic....

Oh...and I don't know if you guys checked my blog but I had to change Ys...And I did make it to pilates class on Thursday and it was great even though it was a little noisy with the kiddos...I was actually able to tune them out just fine...

I am sorry Chickies...I am not fully back to my bouncy self but I wanted to let you all know I am here and you are loved...Hope everyone has a great day! luv luv Everybody!!!

Sooooooooo I'm supposed to be cleaning right now. And I have the tv on in the background, I was listening to motocross. Then all of a sudden, the tv changed to Vh1, and I Love the New Millenium was on. At first I didnt wanna watch it, I was gonna save it for later..but I gave in. I sat down for an hour watching it, lol. It was pretty funny. They so need to release all of those I Love the whatevers on dvd!!! I already have the I Love the 80s game, lol. Anyways...I should go back to cleaning..but I feel all relaxed and lazy, lol.

Good afternoon!

Hope you are all having a nice relaxing Sunday.
It is beautiful here with the sun and a breeze. When Hubby got home yesterday he cut the front yard, which I hate doing as its all bumpy and swampy in areas. So I just have to do the back which I prefer. I'm hoping for a better day today as yesterday was one long anxiety attack. Finally when I picked up DdA from her friend's we went to the er. My blood pressure was up to 199/124. So I got to stay there for four hours and they agreed it was anxiety and gave me some ativan. I wouldn't have worried so much except for the pressure on my chest and back, scared me a little. I'm hoping to spend some time outside and do a reboot.
Hubby just left for work again, he should be back Tuesday or so. Its his birthday so the girls made him breakfast.

momof4 on the fruit question I don't know if canned fruit is bad perse, its what its packed in. If its in a juice thats one thing, but most are packed in a sugar syrup. Frozen fruit is another great option. I love frozen grapes, especially in summer and personally I like frozen blueberries, but with the ages of your kidlets it could make a terrible mess and lots of blue stains! Oh and congrats on the all the working out and getting so much done, I'm envious!

Hope I hope you have some good shoes for work. Walking on that cement for 8 hours is tough. I knew one lady who was a manager at the home depot here and she said they had to wear steel toes shoes all the time. If you have to do that just think of all the calories you can burn and the work out your legs will get! The bike ride sounds like fun.

Raven I was wondering where you had gotten to. That sounds like an interesting book.

Hi leenie, francie, sugar, amarie, sassy, cathy and everyone else :wave:

Well I better go, since its so perfect I want to strip the bed and wash our duvet and sheets and get them all on the line. Problem is I'm so sleepy from the paxil and ativan and lack of sleep etc.

Oh well, have a wonderful day and take care,
K

Sleepy...

Taking a quick nap, then better do some laundry - I had to wear my too-big undies today :lol:

It went well today....My practice paid off...but the cleaning all looks for nothing...seriously if you would see my house it is AWFUL....It depresses me even more. Like I seen about that who cluttered house helps people stay depressed and not lose weight so I want to stay uncluttered here and keep it clean. Just i get frustrated cause my house gets dirty like 4x as fast as most peoples and people are always stopping by so I have to keep on it. Where we lived before it was just family so it wasnt a priority to do it right away I would clean later in the day before dh came home. Now I have to constantly keep on top of it unless I want to be embarrassed if someone shows up!! I got a great nap today I went the whole way up to the third floor to sleep in my bed for once and it was sooo goood I didnt even wake up until the phone rang and the dh got me up. Usually I nap on the couch with the boys and its so uncomfortable constantly tossin and turnin...so yeah I got some rest. I gotta run some movies back to the movie place I think I am going to stop renting movies because I can never return them on time and end up with money in late fees that I coulda just bought the movie..

Hope everyone has a good night chat with you all tomorrow!!

momof4~When my place was messy..I was more depressed and had more anxiety. I was always so much more happier when we went out. Finally I told dh that we had to clean the place up and keep it clean so my depression & anxiety could get under control. And it worked!! We clean every sunday. I dont feel as depressed anymore. I'm dreading dh coming home and dumping all the crap from his seabag in the middle of the floor. He does it no matter what, I cannot prevent it.

awww that stinks that you will have all that to clean...but yeah I agree about it causing that stuff when its messy. Cause me it would overwhelm me and I would just lay down and try to block it out cause I knew I couldnt clean it all at once so why bother trying!!

I was like that too for awhile. But the messiness just got on my nerves and I had dh help me clean..so it went by faster. It helps to make a list of all the stuff that needs to be clean. I break it down by room to room. I'm a list maker though, lol. And of course..really good upbeat music helps too.


I just washed the towels..and I was a good lil girl and put away all the clothes, lol. I'm waiting for the towels to finish drying so I can fold them up while watching Army Wives. I still have some left over stuff to clean for the week. But nothing too major.

I'm so glad dh is coming home soon..I'm almost out of my chick food. So when he comes home, we can go grocery shopping and buy food for the both of us, lol. I am gonna go to the store tomorrow to look for a welcome home gift for dh. I might get him a video game if they have the one he wants there.

Anyhoo..that is all for now.
