Between the Sheets

10/5/2013

I've decided to quit putting the number of days up in the subject, and I'll just go with the weekly weigh-in.  I'm not specifically following Eat To Live right now, so there's no count down to the end of anything.  Plus, I'm looking at this as a forever thing.  I know I won't be perfect, but there's been a definite shift in my head.  A shift that hasn't been there in a very, very long time.  I've always been an "all or nothing" kinda girl, but this time, I'm not feeling that way.  I don't know...it just hasn't worked for me...in any part of my life.  So, I'm working on that.  This week has continued to throw me stress, by way of Ryno not feeling well.  He's a little better, but for fuck's sake.  He should be much better by now.  It's crazy.  Everyday I've wanted to dive into a piece of cake, or go through a drive through, or drink a soda (my first week without), but I've talked myself through it.  It doesn't mean I've been perfect, but this is by far my best week of eating.  Plus, I kept thinking, Pizza Friday is coming up...you can't have this, if you're going to have that.  I've proven that with pizza in the house, I'm not strong enough to stay away from it.  I hate that it's so much dairy, but my dairy intake has been next to nothing this week.  I've also been cheating, by looking at the scale a couple of times this week.  I'm super pleased with what I see (short run obviously, if I think long run, I want to puke...so far to go...).  But it is the weekend, and Brian wants to go to this beer festival today.  I'll admit: I have no control over what I eat or how much I drink, once I get going.  I'm making sure that we're mixing in a good walk, but I know it's not enough to offset the damage.  I'll do my best though.  I know my weaknesses when it comes to drinking, and I'll give it my best shot today!

Now look, I know you looked at today's title and dirty thoughts went immediately into your head (at least I hope they did)!  But the sheets....are a different story.  I don't know what happened, but with the move, I could only find 2 sets of sheets for our bed.  I'm too cheap to buy more, with Christmas coming up.  My Mom always likes it when I tell her what I need, so I'm waiting it out.  Anyway, this is the first week that I've left Jesse out of the kennel when I've had to run errands.  The first time she did great.  I was so shocked!  She's such a chewer and destructive...  The second time, she pulled all of the blankets, sheets, and pillows off the bed, and slid the top mattress halfway off to chew up the tags on everything.  Ugh!  So pissed.  I showed her what she did wrong, and then I put her outside for a while.  This brings me to the third time...the little fucker actually shredded my bottom sheet.  My one "good" sheet!  Man, she tore that thing to shreds, I tell you...  Since then, she has been better, but in no way do I trust that little bitch (pun intended).  If Cal leaves any of his toys in the living room, or his bedroom door open, she quickly snatches them up and brings them outside with her toys (which she doesn't chew or play with...).  Poor Woody from Toy Story had his feet chewed off last night!  But what to do, I love this little girl with all my heart.  She's definitely my baby.  Of course, I may not think this way, once she chews up my crappy sheet :)

Other than Ryne being sick, everything else seems to be going really well.  I really do like it here.  It sucks no knowing anyone...  Really sucks, but I like that I see some of the same old guys when I walk Jesse down by the lake.  I truly enjoy our brief talks about the weather.  I love it when Jesse's able to play with other dogs down there.  I love that I have time to cook. This week I've made the Tomato Bisque, Cauliflower soup, and Accidental Goulash from the recipes tab on the side of this blog.  I'm really enjoying this brief break from work.  I know it won't last long, but for now, I'm trying to make the most of it.

I'd better get a move on.  It sounds like Brian is finishing in the shower, and we are out to make the most of the last of the nice weather.  It's already in the 30's in the morning.  It's been a chilly week, but it's supposed to be 70 today.  Fingers crossed for good weather, safe driving, and smart decisions.

Hope you all have a fantastic Saturday!  AKA the day before Football!
