gloomy day

[Guest guest]

After 2 sunny days with lot of activity going on, we are having a thunderstorm

day and it's dark and gloomy. It sure doesn't help my mood much.

 

I still haven't got myself psyched up for a new beginning on Monday. The lists

are waiting to happen and I haven't read through my notes to see what it is I

want to do. This afternoon would be a good time to do that. I'm a bit tired

this morning from all of the activity of the past few days. I know it's an

excuse but I do not do my best planning when I'm fatigued. I have managed to

drink 24 oz of water this morning so at least that part of my brain is working.

 

I do know that my eating has been much better since this group got more active.

I went out to lunch with my friends yesterday to a local coffee shop and rather

than get sucked into a high fat lunch including a donut, I took my lunch as

usual. Being a vegetarian makes it an easy decision. I hate when they make

me a sandwich while wearing gloves that have been handling greasy bacon and

other meats. I used to see the shiny fingerprints on the top of my crusty bun.

My friends understand completely so are not embarrassed by me and my brown bag

routine. It affords me an opportunity to make my lunch healthier.

 

I hope everyone has a great weekend and a great Mother's Day if that is

appropriate for you. Two of my daughters are Mothers so I ask them to have a

day with their children, get some pampering and think of me. I prefer a quiet

day at home. I shy away from any kind of recognition.
