Good & Bad

10/3/2011

The past few days have been a wide range of emotions.  I went from having anxiety through the roof on Friday, which resulted in eating a lot, and eating very poorly, to a good(ish) weekend.  Brian worked a ton last week, so I barely saw him.  He even worked from 7 a.m. to 1:15 a.m. on Friday.  Crazy!  Thankfully, he had the weekend off.  Saturday Ryno had his last football game.  The coaches had promised to start him at offense for that game, but instead played him just 2 plays the whole game.  He was heartbroken.  Small town politics...gotta love it.  After his game, we took the boys to lunch.  From there, I met up w/ Brian's co-workers, girlfriend to watch the Help.  I was quite proud of myself for putting myself out there and inviting her.  What a fantastic movie.  That night I made a big dinner for Brian.  I felt so bad about how much he worked all week.  I haven't cooked meat (other than hot dogs for the boys) in probably a year and a half.  But I know how much Brian loves my pork chops w/ mushroom gravy, so I made those w/ Calrose rice, Rhodes rolls, brocoli, and an apple pie.  All of the boys were in heaven.  I guess I should start cooking them meat once a week or so.  Brian doesn't eat a lot of meat, but he still does like it.  Of course, the boys love it.  Yesterday morning I went to church.  After church, it was a long day of being lazy and watching football.  My Cousin Melinda and I were playing each other in fantasy football, so that was fun (esp 'cause I won ;)  Then last night, we went to a church hot dog roast.  The boys had a lot of fun, and I even shamed Brian into coming with us.  All in all, a really great weekend.  But I must mention, my diet this weekend leaves much to be desired, and I'm not off to a great start today, either.

8:15  2 Morning Star Farms breakfast biscuits, can of Diet Coke (made it to the weekend w/out caffeine....and here I am like a fool).

Sounds like football ( and crushing Mel) helped you have a great weekend. How is your wall of positivity coming along? I remember trying to write a gratitude journal once, I think I lasted about 5 days. I just don't buy into that stuff much. Winter is here and so is the darkness. I find myself eating to feel better, which is always so short term, but tough to break a life-long habit, eh? I need to remember to get my 'happy light' out before it's too bad. How is the juicer going? I'm thinking about getting one, though any fruits & veg up here in the winter cost an arm and a leg. Groceries are nuts. The four kids are going to eat us out of our retirement! Okay, I just wanted to touch base w/you my friend. I miss you and think of you (and the guys) often! Night.
