New diet

I think stress is God's way of making me lose weight. When I am under stress I have no desire to eat. Today has been very stress filled and am surviving on the 2 pieces of wheat toast I had for breakfast. Can you tell when my stress started? Just the thought of food makes me nauseated.

Lord give me strength to get through the next 6 days. I hope and pray I can keep my job.

long time

Sorry I have been gone so long...a friend got me started on Facecrack. I will be coming back...need an outlet for my wandering mind still. Not that anyone reads my blog but me..but I need it nonetheless.

Feel like I should be at confession..."Forgive me..it has been over 4 months since my last blog".

Lots has happened..got 2 new hips, the holidays have passed, been eating too much and still need to lose weight, work has been going well. Will be in Florida for my Sister & B's committment ceremony in 12 days..yippee. All the world needs is love. Sure hope it is a heck of a lot warmer. I need some sun on my face.

thought for the day

Tuesdays...are they the unwanted stepchild of the week?

Mondays we hate cause they are Mondays, Wednesday is hump day, Thursday is closer to the weekend, and we love Fridays. What up with Tuesday?

Peace

Congratulations to our President of the United States for winning the Nobel PEACE prize!


Here is hoping that American can now start standing for the Land of PEACE instead of war.

My Afternoon

1 bathroom, plumber coming to fix toilet for 3rd time, finding out toilet tank has a crack, price for the toilet provided by plumber insane, cheaper for me to go to Home Depot and pick out toilet and have them put it in, off with sick child to Home Depot and buy a new toilet, overwhelmed by choices, pick one with help of great sales guy who saw I was overwhelmed. Plumber will be back between 5-7 to install new toilet. Thank goodness I had hip surgery and we had to buy this..so we have a back up pot to piss in..

Fall

things

I think are mean:

1. Seeing someone eat an ice cream cone that you can't have.
2. Someone leaving only 1 chocolate chip cookie in the cookie jar.
3. Favorite writers who post snippets of a book only to tell you that it won't be out until NEXT YEAR.
4. Getting a compliment when you feel your absolute worse..I mean does that mean when I think I look great I really look like crap?
5. Thinking you have lost weight only to step on the scale and realize the number has gone UP

I think are wonderful:

1. Kisses and hugs from my daughter and husband.
2. The fact that my husband enjoys cooking us dinner.
3. Fresh baked chocolate chip cookies in which I have to "test" a cookie from each batch coming out of the oven to make sure they are done.
4. The library that I frequent having new "smut" books that I like to read on the shelf.
5. Air conditioning in my house..especially when the temp outside is 69 and the dew point is 68.
6. The fall leaves starting to show.
7. My new hip is not painful (muscles a bit sore but the hip works great).
8. The fact that we have health insurance to allow me to get a new hip at 40.
9. Instant messenger..so I can "chat" with my sister on a regular basis.
10. and most of all....CHOCOLATE... (and the fact that I am not a diabetic yet).


What are some of your mean/wonderful things?
