Up before the sun!
On a Saturday I might add!
I need to hit the road by 8. Taking both computers with me. Work computer and personal laptop. - The kiddos still nap!
I remember those day! I would just WAIT for nap time! My DD has them trained. The little one will get up and demand "OUT"- the 4 year old reads quietly until it time to come out from "rest time"-
Had a great sleep- It stormed a second time and I fell asleep to thunder and it was nice for a change. I love a good storm as long I as I am not out in the middle of nowhere driving in it!
Have a new book to start. This on is called "Maybe in another life". It is a sappy love story. I need one after a heavy book. I will go with a chick sappy love story!
NIC- I was think about what you said- about giving it a couple weeks to see how it works for me. That is EXACTLY what I am going to do. I will allow myself one for dinner and an egg/ and or broth anytime I need a something something. Day one is TODAY!
So even through the party next week I will bring my own and nobody will care. Everyone is used to my "diets"- LC.
That is the plan. Yes it reeks of a Jenny Craig plan. - I just need some type of jump start a plan. Solid plan- something TRACKABLE.
I am also going to get a little notebook and keep a record- and report in.
For ME right now I need something with a bit of structure. I see nothing wrong in the short term with it.
I am going to shop today for eggs, broth and a 7 "dinners" - I have nothing in my house that would be "off limits"- I don't keep boxes or cans of anything- fridge is empty except a 1/2 carton of eggs.
After I cleaned out the fridge I have not fully stocked it back up. I have 2 racks of frozen ribs- but MEH.
I just got off the scale- OMG! This could not come at a better time.
So........ DAY ONE FOR ME! I NEED this.
I am excited about it actually- a solid plan. I have been muddling around for several weeks and I feel it.
Trig- - how are you doing with the up and down thing. It would SO not work for ME right now. Not there yet.
It however seems to be working so well for you ladies!
Lori- - I'm right there with TRIG- I have beach envy!!!!! I was going through my pic last night and came across some pics I took when I was on the beach for a few days prior to Charleston. Man it was pretty. I might need a few days in Folly Beach! It is a 5 hour drive for me- doable!
I know your sister is excited. Is she feeling good? You haven't talked about her lately- so no news is good news.
NIC- - Thanks for giving me that push. It is just what I needed. Not like I needed permission- But I needed to "mule" it around for a minute!
I like the idea of the steamers as well. Any you recommend?
What are you doing to prep for your trips?
BLUE- - hey gal pal- put your dot down so we know you are in the land of the living! Not a huge post- a DOT will be fine! Hoping you are feeling better! You really got knocked down with this virus! Was it the flu?
----------------------------------------------------------------
So you all so the "plan"- Thanks all- I plan to report in daily with food report! It won't be a book- PROMISE!
So we have a cool story this morning. We have a yearly "fuzz" run. It is a race to support those police and families hurt in the line of duty. Well - the guy who is going to lead the race in the front is a police officer who was shot in the face, head and leg last year. He has been in rehab ever since. He was told he would never walk again. Well- he is walking this race on his own two feet! It was his goal to be in this race not in a wheel chair.
And he will!!!!- What a great story. yet I don't want to get off the couch! Needed to hear that story as well.
Speaking of Races. My DS- is running a 10K this morning! He is a runner! He runs to relax!
Gotta run! - well walk fast- and get outta here!
So you and Lori are in a book club? What are you two reading? I might want to jump in!
there is more to life than work!
