Yesterday I ate a triple spicy southwestern cheeseburger from Hardee's for lunch. Then a couple of hours later, I ate 16oz. of penne pasta with lots of butter. I almost made myself sick. This is not according to my plan. I don't know why I had to eat to eat so much. I'm not proud of myself.
On the other hand, the burger was delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole thing. I do not plan to make a habit of eating a triple burger. I feel it was a once in a lifetime type of thing, and that's why I took a picture!
Yesterday, I picked up 1 full trash bag of trash from my living room floor, and 2 partially filled filled bags. I made progress. It was my goal to clean all day, but I was not home all day. It was hot outside and therefor warm inside. I don't function well when it is warm. It is now 3:50 am here.
Caleb is grounded because he left the house 3 times yesterday morning without my permission.
I had my therapist appointment yesterday by video chat. It went well. I like my therapist a lot. I am fortunate to have someone who cares about me.
I am waiting on my EBT card to buy vegetables.
I am waiting on my refunds to post to my account for Caleb's clothing returns.
I know I have gained more weight this week as I have eaten horribly.
I made a healthy dinner last night that was not eaten. Caleb wanted Velveeta shells and cheese for dinner instead, and I was full from the pasta.
I belong to a small group of women who are all about the same weight, and are trying to lose weight. I admitted to them what I had done. Today is a new day, and I can try again.
It's nice and cool in here now, but I woke up because I had to use the bathroom. I also had a funky taste in my mouth.
It's thundering outside.
Today is Saturday. I made it through another week.
I went to the Dollar Tree yesterday, and bought some things to include the new background colors to my door ornament.
I like it better now that it's easily visible. What do you think?
It's peaceful this morning. Caleb and Bella are sleeping. The tv is not on. It is thundering outside. This is how I like to wake up, if I have to wake up at all. Quietly. No questions from the peanut gallery.
I had to throw away the Monopoly game pieces as they were all over the floor. I throw away the Jenga game too. Caleb does not keep his stuff in his room and things get destroyed by being on the floor and not put away. Video games are more his style, there's no clean up. Caleb just woke up. I spoke too soon. He just got up to get a snack. I think he will fall asleep again.
I, like most parents around the country, am waiting to hear about how the new school year is going to play out. I hope that whatever happens, that Caleb gets his needs met safely.
I am also waiting to hear about the Virtual Project Odyssey hosted by Wounded Warrior Project. I am supposed to sign up when it becomes available. I wanted to go to the in-person event for women veterans in April, but it got cancelled.
Caleb fell off his bike yesterday and hurt his tailbone, I told him it was hurting because his tailbone was pushing out. He didn't believe me that we have tailbones, so I showed him the picture from WebMD. I told him he is almost the age of getting a tail, almost 12. He half-believed me! LOL I was telling him this stuff before he told me he had fallen off his bike. DUH! You fell. Falling hurts.
Caleb made me laugh so much yesterday. He's such a drama king! I can't help but to laugh. He hurts himself around the house because he doesn't pick up after himself. I laugh because I told him somebody was going to get hurt, and he didn't care! He cares now!
Nichole's grandpa came home from the hospital yesterday after having A-FIB. He refused to stay at the hospital. SMH Another drama king! McKenzie tested negative for COVID-19, but still feels like crap. Nichole's mom saw her primary care provider yesterday. Nichole's mom and stepdad are supposed to be on their way to Nichole's house.
Caleb made me a "howler" like in Harry Potter Chamber of Secrets, and it had a special note inside. It was a drawing of a heart! He can be sweet sometimes!
Caleb looks so grown up these days. He looks what I imagine his father looked like. He doesn't resemble me at all.
Our photo shoot is in about a week, on the 19th. I haven't even tried the dress on yet. I don't know what products I'm going to use in my hair. I have been wearing my hair in a ponytail lately because of the heat. I need a pedicure because my toe nail polish is coming off. I hope the photo shoot doesn't get cancelled for any reason.
I'm just kinda waiting. Waiting to pay off my bills. Waiting to get paid to buy groceries and put gas in the car. Waiting for inspiration to hit me. Waiting on the mail and packages to arrive. Waiting for things to get better. I'm holding on to hope that they will get better.
I may not be doing my walking but I am moving around while I clean the house. I try to adjust my methods so I don't end up hurting at the end of the day. Cleaning is always being done here, but it never looks like it. It's frustrating to me. I even considered hiring help to clean up, so I could get to a point where I have time that I am not concerned about cleaning. I can't afford it right now. I just have to get Caleb to help around the house more and train him to not make messes everywhere he goes. I will sleep better when the living room is clean to my standard. And from there I can make plans to help Caleb with his room. I have a feeling that he has a lot of stuff he no longer wants or needs.
I would like to be able to move into my bedroom for sleeping. My bed is covered with clean clothes and random items I have not put away.
It's now 5:07 am here. I've had some Dews. I'm less tired now.
My application to a group that sends veterans Art kits every month was approved! I can't wait to see what's in the kit this month!
I want to buy some air plants and succulents for my home. One day, I will have them.
I wanted to buy some books recently, and decided it was best to wait.
I finished the doTerra supplements and am not buying them again. What a waste of money! I can't believe people continue to buy that stuff. It's so expensive and has no visible effects. I'm sticking to my much cheaper One-A-Day Women's multivitamin.
I wonder what my newborn niece looks like. I bet she is beautiful.
