Here it is a rainy afternoon after a big snow yesterday. Nothing quite like getting over a foot of snow and then immediate rain to make things a complete mess!
I find myself with a few free minutes and thought I'd honor you with my presence! (Ha! Ha!). I had a hungry weekend. Everything sounded good. Everything my DH ate smelled and looked yummy (it should be illegal for him to eat chocolate cake and Tillamook Mudslide ice cream in front of me ... Oh wait, damn, I bought it for him!). Nevertheless I did okay as far as "all things food" over the weekend. I have a meeting to go to this evening so I'll be home late tonight. DH was worried about the house and dog being alone but I think both will survive for a few hours more. I'm seriously trying to honor my hunger , respect my body, and nourish it well. Tis not an easy task I will tell you that!
I MUST start taxes very soon. There is something very wrong about your birthday being the same day as income tax due date! I want it done so I can enjoy celebrating my 56th year!
My husbands uncle fixed our vacuum cleaners! Free! And now I no longer have any excuses to put off the vacuuming. Yes I own 2. One I though was dust but turns out it was just VERY clogged. He's a gem. Fixed it up and showed me how to clean it. Too much dirt at my house I guess! Oh and those darn wood chips. Heating with wood is messy and dangerous to vacuums!
I'm focused on remaining positive in addition to being mindful and being kind to myself. I've never thought of myself as a negative person but I must admit I quickly lapse into negative self talk, feeling like what's the point, nothing ever works for me. And not just in relation to food or diet (which by the way is a word I loathe). Everyone fails. Everyone struggles. And I have so many wonderful blessings in my life, things and people others would envy. I have one child who has grown to be a kind and loving man. Hey, one outta three ain't bad! (Besides I didn't birth the others! ).
I thought about stepping on the scale but think I'll wait till Thursday or Friday. It doesn't matter what it says, what matters is what I do each day.
Well I best wrap this up and get to my meeting location. I miss you all.

I like how you phrased that, "I'm focused on remaining positive in addition to being mindful and being kind to myself." That is an excellent goal. The negative self talk is a problem for many of us. Keep coming on here and we'll support each other!

Your thoughts sound exactly like mine. I do love that you remember its not what the scale says that matters. Hard to watch someone eating cake and ice cream...the voice of experience here. Put fat sick and nearly dead back in the Dvd player and see what happens.: )

Never heard of Tillamook ice cream but I don't browse those aisles much in effort to remain somewhat sane; do love their cheese though. Negative self talk is a waste of time - as I remind myself constantly. I think the other day I heard a quote, "the next time you say something bad to yourself, tell that thought to go to hell as that's where it came from.' Think more about your heavenly features as you have in this journal and you'll feel yourself lighten in ways the scale can never reflect. It's the whole package, not a digit under a needle (I have an old scale).

Excellent idea Sharon. We got Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead from Netflix though so I don't have the DVD lying around. We toyed with buying it maybe I should. half the time he doesn't even drink the grapefruit juice he insists I make for him!!
