    Need to start logging again tomorrow. Vacation was fun, but the whole time I was only able to eat crackers, toast, and rice. I need to push myself more, no matter how sick it makes me feel afterward. I can’t carry on the way I’ve been doing the past few days.

    So tomorrow I’m recommitting to myself

    I logged all my food today. And I made a conscious effort to make my meals more balanced. I’ll call that a win

    @emgracewrites, I need to start logging again too - I've spent the last week eating healthier, but the holiday weekend sort of unraveled that. Exercise has been good, but I need to start getting more serious about actually losing some pounds.
    JFT:
    log food & stay within calories
    exercise at pool
    100 oz water
    no alcohol

    Pretty sure I had a concussion from falling down the stairs last week. I slept and excessively long time for days in a row. I had just attributed that to giving blood Monday, but then on Saturday I wasn't able to participate in spin class without dizziness and nausea. That and today it's like a fog has lifted. I didn't realize there was a fog, until it was gone. I really did hit my head pretty hard Tuesday when I fell, but I didn't think I was actually hurt. At least I'm feeling better today.

    Lovely long weekend filled with cookouts and graduation parties. Sierra even came in for a visit with the grand puppy who is getting big fast! My eating was out of control, but I didn't drink so that's a positive. Bought some flowers yesterday and had planned to put them in the ground after our cookout. Unfortunately, the weather turned dark and rainy in the evening so I guess I will do that this evening. Tuesdays are typically reserved for biking, but if I don't get these in the ground, I'm afraid they will die. I have a hard enough time keeping things alive without getting off to a bad start. Oh... also need to repost a few things. Need potting soil.

    Other than that, I have very few plans for today. Doggo needs to go to the vet at 2:30pm for an ultrasound of his bladder/kidneys to make sure he just had a UTI not a tumor. He's getting old, but it seems that the antibiotics worked so I'm pretty sure it was just a UTI. Ohhhh, if I take dog to vet and leave work early I may be able to plant flowers and ride bike...

    Work stuff is getting real lately. Big projects and big complaints. New job interview is tomorrow afternoon. Even if I get it, I will make sure I'm able to finish out a few big things before I go.

    JFT Tuesday
    - Work by 7:00 :smiley:
    - Meetings
    - Protein bar for breakfast
    - Work on audit prep for next week
    - Dog to Vet
    - Plant flowers
    - Bike ride?
    - Leftovers for dinner
    - No alcohol
    - Bed by 10:00.

    Been a crazy day at work today. Glad I'm only working until 1:00pm. Interview is at 2:30, wish me luck. Interviews these days are hard, they ask all of these situational questions about your experience. That isn't a bad thing, but I tend to start talking before I've completely formed the thought and then stammer. Gotta remember to slow it down a bit.

    It's my daughter's first day of summer break. That means I'm done with class parties, awards days, and all the rest of the stuff that comes with the last month of school. Hopefully that means I'll finally stop running so much and be able to get myself more fully back on track.

    I think my interview went well yesterday. Not perfect, but pretty good. There was only one question I really struggled with. The interview panel seemed attentive and receptive to my answers. Now the waiting begins. They are wanting to fill the roll quickly, so I should know by next week.

    Today, there are massive customer issues I need to deal with, and I have very few answers for them. Not my favorite part of the job. I hate not having answers.

    This evening I have a Bible School work day. Painting and such. Not sure what all they need done, but they have my time and talents from 6 - 8:30.
