    Marla - I tend to be the same way. I suppress anxiety or stress and then it comes out in either my eating, an emotional explosion, or illness. I still struggle with dealing with things as they happen instead of repressing them. So I totally understand that struggle!

    Sherry - That will feel so good to have all that clutter out!

    Yesterday I managed to get my church stuff done much more quickly...giving me hope that as I adjust to my new responsibilities that it will become more of a habit and not so stressful. Spent some time with hubby as well, and that was about it. The day went by quickly! Today hubby and I are taking a quick run (it's my taper week too!) and then I'm heading to Costco. Hanging out with a friend this afternoon and then we have bible study here tonight. Another busy day for us. Tomorrow hubby has agreed to get up with the kids so I can sleep in. We made this agreement a week or two ago that I need one morning off...where I'm not having to drag my butt out of bed and get three other people ready and out the door for school. Looking forward to the break! We will also be driving our race route tomorrow! It's getting real here! I'm getting nervous I can tell...

    Have a great Wednesday everyone!

    Glad hubby is giving you a morning off. I think getting the kids up and ready for school was almost the hardest part of raising them.

    Rainy day here and stormy winds will be in today. Lots to do around here putting things away from painting and packing for 5 day trip Friday, going to Reno with 3 women to volunteer.

    I am a bit anxious about winter traveling in mountains, nothing i can do but stay home or deal with it!

    One.of.those.days.

    Got off bus at last stop, walked to next metro station to phone store to pay bill, because our bill never came this month. They told me they couldn't at the moment, go to other store, "where?"....right back where I got off the bus (never knew that store was inside the station). At least I got extra steps in!

    Guy couldn't come pick up the donation stuff bc car problem. So I didn't get the leaning tower of stuff out before DH leaves. :-/

    DH wanted to order food tonight. I had already eaten hardily during the day, expecting to have a salad tonight. Went over calories.

    Took nap, woke to DH packing which caused stress, and to a bag of twizzler cherry bites he forgot he had in suitcase. A lot of stress eating later (popping twizzlers like an addict) and I'm waaaaay over calories. :( At least the previous few days were good and I have a good plan for now that DH will be gone.

    Legs ached sporadically walking today. I'm gonna lose my mind over my achy calves! Maybe I need different shoes....again. Ugh.

    Hang in there Sherry, I love twizzlers too some things while stressed out are just too hard to walk by.
