Monday. Lots of snow overnight. I don't know how much cause it's still dark outside but definitely more than a skiff!!

This way of eating is not for the faint of heart. I had a 3.6 gain after feast day. Yesterday I ate a mere 500 calories, one of my low calorie days for the week, and my scale only declined 1 lb. Of course I know darn well I didn't gain 3.6 lbs of fat in one day but still. I'm going to ride it out for a while though ... see what the entire week brings. I know after so many years of this journey that you can't base your progress on day to day fluctuations/weighing. Today will be a "normal" calorie day meaning I'll average no more than 1500 or so. And on I go.

Ordered a few things online yesterday. I had the hardest time deciding what I wanted. I finally decided on a couple little things and asked DH if he wanted me to simply order them. He of course said yes. That's a sure fire guarantee I will get what I wanted. LOL. Of course he always tells me what he wants to. No surprises this holiday season. Which is okay with me.

I still don't even have our tree up. There is still time. Company won't be here until Sunday.

I'm going to finish up my cup of coffee, get my Pilates done and get ready for my day at work. Busy enough today. I have a report due by the end of the week and I am waiting impatiently for other people to give me their input. This is why I don't like working in groups!!! Fortunately I don't have to drive further than town today for work. I imagine the roads will be hairy. And ... if need be I can come home early for my final phone meeting today. And work on my report at home but with mom and DH here concentrating isn't the easiest. Still probably easier than in cubby-land at work.

Oh and the topper? Power system shut off again last night while we were sleeping. Clearly we don't have the batteries under control. Gonna need to figure out how to replace them. Com'n lottery!!!

Grateful. I really need to dwell on gratefulness ...

* I have a job.

* I have health insurance.

* I have made progress in bringing my weight back down.

* I have loving family and friends.

* I enjoy the job I have most of the time.

* There is someone bigger, stronger, kinder, and wise who looks out for me.

* The migraine aura I had yesterday did not lead to pain in my head.

So today I have yet another opportunity to practice kindness towards myself and others, to practice gratefulness, to be mindful of the moment ... focus on what I do have, not on what I do not. Remembering of course ... all of the above is really minor in comparison to losing a child, bearing the loss that so many in our nation have faced recently ... in fact ... many across our world.

So ... no wallering today. Simply place one foot in front of the other and carry on!!!
