Since I woke early this morning I thought I would try to write a bit more on my journal. DH arrives home around 3:00 in the morning and typically I don't wake up but today I did. I had a heck of a time getting back to sleep and finally gave up after laying there in bed for almost an hour!! Oh well. Some mornings are like that. I'll regret it later.
Blue, my doberman, seems to be better. He ate some food and drank some water and ate his "cookies" last night so I am hoping whatever it is that was troubling him is passing. There surely is never a dull moment in my house.
After being 224ish for most of the past week the scale finally dipped today. The funny thing is I weighed numerous times and the scale gave me all sorts of numbers. The lowest was 221.6 but that just didn't seem like it could be right. When it said 223.4 three times in a row I finally decided maybe it was accurate. Perhaps my scale is possessed?
I decided to empty my trash compactor this morning. When I pulled out the bag it broke and trash spilled all over my kitchen floor!! I just washed the floor on Sunday!! RATS. So that was my first task this morning, scooping up all the trash and trying to clean the kitchen floor.
My aunt (who is just 6 months older than I) sent me a tin of Mrs. Field's cookies that arrived in the mail yesterday. What? Just what I needed right?! She said they were "Sweets for the sweet." Sweet but oh what a temptation. Fortunately the cookies are wrapped into pairs of two and I think I will stick them in the freezer. Of course, frozen cookies are quite tasty ... but still ... perhaps out of sight out of mind?
I absolutely need to stay on track and not "reward" myself with sweets right now. I feel like I am holding on by a thin thread to the idea of getting back to a decent weight. Every day I am tempted to indulge. I know me. Right now if I indulge the battle will roar louder than it is now. And so ... I carry on.
I feel rather "out" of it lately. Work is busy so at least I haven't too much time to dwell on things but I feel like I am having an "out of body" experience. That word ... cancer ... keeps creeping into my brain. I feel disjointed. I feel overwhelmed. Hubby is trying a whole slew of "alternative" treatments to battle his cancer. I have a hard time getting excited about them ... though I know doctors are not always "right."
I guess I just get through each day and take it a moment at a time.
Well I thought I had more positive things to say!! Well DH has asked me to make him up some turkey salad so I guess I better get off my duff and get moving. I skipped Pilates yesterday because I needed to be at an early home visit. Best not skip again today.
Despite all ... funkiness aside ... grateful I am for ...
Thoughtful people.
Another day, another opportunity to shine.
Scraping the bottom of the barrel this morning my friends ...

Morning Carol, Cathy was up early too, must be something in the air? Glad the doggy is feeling better. Sorry you had to wash the kitchen floor again, the air would have been blue around me! And cookies in the mail, oh my, you did right to put them in the freezeer and hopefully you will forget about them! Its so hard to say NO to sweet treats, especially at this time as they are EVERYWHERE. Glad the scale dipped, gives you the incentive and courage to continue. I haven't weighed myself yet, perhaps next week. I feel better so I'g going with that for now. Hope today is a good day. Positive thoughts for you and your husband. C is such an ugly word.

Hi Moose. I miss it here. I enjoy your journals. I was just thinking freeze the cookies! Glad you had the same though. I also think we should name that trick already -the trick that the scale plays, numbers moving and such! LOL BS! haha Oh no, I gather your husband's cancer is back? Happy healthy vibes your way!!

I'm glad to hear Blue is feeling better... One thing you don't have to worry about. I hope you slept better last night, 3am is too early to start a day. Have a good Friday/Payday!
