Afternoon all,
I seem to have broken the system so I though I could sit here and just type a bit of a post.
Rotten night last night, woke up several times with tears pouring down my face. I just hope Jen got through the funeral okay and is now gathering her strength for the things that lie ahead for her.
Susie - I gave a bit of thought to your 'bumps' in the road. One of mine is definitely procrastination. I can talk myself out of anything. There is always a reason. It is something I need to get a decent handle on. Another is trigger foods. I think or hear of something I may not have had in years and that will set me on a path to obtaining some, whether I need it or not. Of course the snack machine is a big obstacle particularly when things are not going well.
I try to plan meals. That way I can fit in the things I should be eating which means I may not pick and snack.
Actually my appetite has basically disappeared at the moment. I have either breakfast and lunch or dinner but generally not both. Really I should get back to three meals and make them smaller. Hope that helps.
Annie - well done on volunteering for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I am surprised that that area is so well off for volunteers. Usually, over in Aus anyway, they are begging for people right up to Christmas week. We don't have Thanksgiving over here.
Laura - thanks for calling Happy. I did put a message on Facebook to both of them but as I hadn't seen the DH on there for a day or so, wondered if it would get picked up. I know she would have been very upset if no-one had got in touch.
Michelle - happy job hunting. I guess we will hear as soon as you do. The whooping and hollering will reverberate.
Ceejay - so glad that you had access to the basics while at the family home. I had visions of you with legs crossed and fingers crossed and probably eyes crossed as well.
Happy - hope you are enjoying being with Mum. Plenty of hugs needed there.
Okay, got to go. I think that the IT sections might have patched the problem. I won't say fixed because I don't think this is a very stable system.
