Forever

Man, it feels like my next weigh-in is FOREVER away since I did my weigh-in one day early this time.  Why is that?  I try not to obsess over weigh-ins, but it's weird that it feels so far away this week.  I mean, it's Monday and already I am thinking about weighing in on Sunday.  Not that I'm not busy.  Geez.  I need to update my freezer log -- it got messed up before vacay so that needs to be updated.  I need to do the new calendar -- lots of appts. this month starting today at 3.  They're coming to do our estimates on the house from the storms.  OH FUN.  Then there are regular house chores, projects, swim class for oldest, so on and so on.  Not to mention, I need to do my darn garden!  I hope to do that soon.  I don't mind paying for some things, but I am to the point where I refuse to pay for things like lettuce, onions, cucumbers and tomatoes that are VERY easy to grow at home.  I also got two bushes that I need to finally put out.  That was suppose to be done 2mos. ago, but between storms and remodeling and then travel, just didn't happen.  Lordy but I need June to be productive.  And calm.  I need some calm and organization!  I think I need to set up some playdates for the kiddos.  LOL

Did great at dinner last night!  Had my leftovers and drank a diet cola.  Hadn't had one of THOSE in FOREVER.  Was pretty good!  I drink water so much, though, that I just never seem to have time to fit in many other liquids.  I feel like all I ever do is drink!  Drink coffee, drink protein shakes, drink water... I should be melting away at this rate!  Or is that floating?  LOL  Either way, I did great at dinner and have done great so far this AM.  Not sure what I will do at dinner... I had that steak last night.  Maybe chicken or pork chops?  I have lots of pork, and that suddenly sounds good.  REALLY good.  And with this micro I have, I can defrost anything!  My old micro wouldn't really defrost... it would just cook everything and it would be rubbery.  This new one does SUCH a good job!  It comes out perfectly defrosted and then I can cook it however I want.  Oh, it's the simple things in life like a good defroster (because I can never remember to set something out earlier) that make me happy.  HA!

Heh.  I just realized I have 5lbs. to my next goal which is 194.5.  Felt SO good to mark off my 2nd mini-goal on my Goals page!!!  I am thinking I'm going to add another ticker to my page to follow my mini-goals.  I like the little tickers.  I'm not sure why, just do.  I think lots of people like a visual.  I'm using Ticker Factory right now.  You ladies know of a better one?

Ok, well, not much else to write about right now and I have a few things I'd like to get done.  I already picked up a bit this AM.  I also folded two loads of laundry before bed last night.  So, today I don't have too much to do other than the stuff I mentioned before.  That's enough, I think!  Better get on it!  I need to fit in a shower at some point, too!  Have a great day, chickies!

  2. Argh! This totally reminds me that I COMPLETELY forgot to put my laundry in the dryer before I left for work this morning.

    Great job on your weigh-in the other day! You'll be dancing all the way through onederland to your ultimate goal before you know it. Just stay active and positive and it'll be cake! :)

  3. Hi Jewlz! I just logged back on to 3FC after a few days off and saw your great weigh-in from the other day. Congratulations!! I bet that feels pretty darn good.

    I'm envious about your garden. We want to put in a vegetable garden so badly but we have "challenging" property -- deer in the front and the septic field in the best sunny part of the back lawn. But we'll figure something out. For now it's herbs in hanging pots.

    Yeah, get those kids some playdates so you can go do your stuff! :)
