December 4, 2011 — Didn’t sleep in quite as long today. Got up at 9:30 and went outside and trimmed up the bushes. They are dying from some sort of fungus or disease so they look like crap right now. I couldn’t trim them in the summer because of the wasps and my hip. It only took me a couple of hours but still my body is screaming. I had to keep stopping and stretching my muscles.
I got in, ate some almonds, broccoli and peanut butter and watched another segment of beliefchangers. Tried to take a nap but could not get warm. So I got up and got a hot shower and then took a ½ a hydrocodone and tried to take a nap. I slept for about 45 minutes before I got woke up to pee. I couldn’t get comfortable after laying back down but did manage to doze off for a bit.
Talked to Mom a little on the phone. She sounds better.
December 5, 2011 – Ugh. Monday. Or should I say “Moanday.” Not thrilled about going to work today. I know I’m not going to be busy because Boss won’t be there. Boring. Makes for a long day.
I went to Kroger at lunch. I was dreading it. I knew it would be pricey and I didn’t even buy a lot. Makes me sick. When I am in this frame of mind, I know I shouldn’t evaluate my diet at this point. I spent $306 and $110 of it was gift cards.
I got one of those for Daughter for Christmas and the other I used to get some fried shrimp for dinner. After I got the shrimp, I realized that I possibly shouldn’t be eating them. Fried in what kind of oil? I’m sure it wasn’t olive oil. Batter can’t be spelt wheat. Soooo…no more of those. I should have gotten the ribs.
My nails need redoing and I am fighting myself about it. I really enjoy them. They are pretty, classy and about the only thing I like on me. So I am not doing anything at this point. I am tempted to cut them off just to save $30 and time.
Hallmark Man had the news on and I am so glad he changed it. Depressing. I can’t focus on that stuff right now.
December 6, 2011 – - Went to chiropractor today. Told him about my muscle spasms and he said to pull up my leg half-cross legged to stretch that area several times a day. It worked.
I was busy because Boss was back and I enjoyed it being busy.
Had to run back to Kroger. Seems I always forget things. I am trying to type this while watching TV. The York Peppermint Patty commercial is enticing. I am missing eating tons and tons and tons of chocolate Christmas bells. I know they aren’t good for me. I wish I could eat anything I wanted and not be affected by it. I do love to eat. I just have to remember as long as I am on this earth, I’ll be restricted on my diet if I want to have any quality of life. ~sigh~
I’m sure any food we eat in heaven will be amazing and won’t be detrimental to my health. lol
Talked to my BFF Lori today. She is going through a rough time as well. I miss her. We need to get together for lunch.
Almost time for bed.
December 7, 2011 – - I didn’t want to get up when my alarm went off. I was in a deep sleep. More like a coma…
Boss has decided he wants to give gifts to our customers like Byrd Cookies or Two Smart Cookies and I started missing the sweets of Christmas again.
Basically, after weighing myself yesterday at Doc’s office, I’ve gone from 285 to 230 since December of last year. I still have 100 lbs to lose. Hallmark Man says there’s no hurry but dang, it’s gonna be a long year.
