First World Problems

Last night was a typical night. Ryne had track practice, Cal had swim practice, and Brian and I each came home from a full day of work. The showers and tub get heavy usage from our family. Last night I decided to beat everyone to the hot water and use the jetted tub. I got myself ready while the water ran, and when I stepped in the tub, it was ice cold. Yeah. No hot water. My immediate disappointment from the realization that I wasn't getting to escape the demands of life for 25 minutes or so, were quickly squashed by the realization that we had NO HOT WATER. Fuck. This means we have to deal with our landlord (who is here now...with someone working on it...). This is never fun. I have some deep resentment over all of the issues we've had with this house at our substantial rent price. So, a nice relaxing bath turned into cleaning to get ready for the landlord to pay a visit. You know...there's the pressure to make it look better than they can imagine. Brian has an internal job interview today, and he needed to shave (and of course shower), so he went over to our friends last night to use their shower. Yes, I just rambled on and on about no hot water. It's 9:30 A.M., and I'm going into work late, after this is done. Let me tell you something, I'm way crazy about my vacation time. This is not how I want use any of my hours (yes...although I'm salary...we mark everything down, even though we often work extra...crazy place). Okay, rant over. Fingers crossed this gets fixed today, so I don't have even stinkier boys on my hands!

Yesterday my co-worker/friend Cindy turned the big 5-0. At the end of this week are my good friends H.P. and Jo's birthdays also. I really should start looking at signs. Earlier this month, Amy, Lynn, and my college friend Cori (one of my all time favorite ppl) birthdays were just a couple of days apart. Maybe there is something to this sign stuff. I must be attracted to a certain type of sign. The hubby also turns the big 5-0 on the 30th. I've never given any thought to any of this astrology stuff, but I guess it could be interesting to look into.

So, I have a phone interview with a therapist today. I was hoping my therapy days were behind me, but my weight screams something different. In so many ways, I am stronger mentally, than probably ever. But I'm still falling down in other areas. I guess I've got to figure this out. It's begrudgingly, that I will go down this path again. My weight is going to kill me. Really, it's no exaggeration...it will. I can't imagine being alive this time next year, if I don't get the weight under control. I'm at least 100 pounds overweight. I know how to lose it, but I'm just not doing it. I'm so frustrated with myself. What can't I just do this?! So, please send some good energy my way. I'm hoping I can get a grip on myself.

Happy over the hump day! I hope your day finds you happy and healthy and feeling loved at every moment.

Take Care,

Jen
