Congrats @slittlemeister!
You do look lovely @Snowflake1968. I especially love the way she curled it in back. That's how I WISH my hair would look. I also think her first client, Jonah, looked adorable with his magenta and blue hair!

Just for Thursday:
1. Log everything I eat and stay under goal.
2. Drink at least 8 glasses of water before having a soda.
I got my 8 glasses in, but I sneaked in a ginger lime diet coke. It was out of curiosity, as I'd never had one. It was good but I was hoping for more ginger flavor.
3. Physical therapy morning and evening.
4. Yoga! I have slacked on the activity since starting work.
5. Laundry.
6. Recycle glass. Did not leave early enough to get this done.
7. Duolingo French practice
8. Review sale ads, menu plan for the week, and prelog. I am excited for my meals this week! I'll be making Ethiopian lentils and split peas with injera bread (purchased injera bread because I am not a wizard), noodle cabbage slaw with spicy peanut soy dressing, red pepper gazpacho, thai green curry, and blueberry pancakes.
9. Kitchen closed, brush teeth, and in bed by 1 am. I'm actually typing this from my bed, lol.
Just for Friday:
1. Log everything I eat and stay under goal.
2. Drink at least 8 glasses of water before having a soda.
3. Physical therapy morning and evening.
4. Recycle glass!
5. Kitchen closed, brush teeth, and in bed by 1 am.5 -
6am, woken up by the kids again. Really need to go to sleep earlier because I feel like I've been hit by a train.
I forgot to fully close the girls window last night and Casey is right below it and her little legs were so cold!
So just had her lay on me but tucked in my dressing gown with me, nice and warm now lol.
Eugh my eyes are drooping I'm so tired but it's nursery day and have to get Saskia ready. Normally I'll give them breakfast stick the telly on and have a sofa nap. But not today.
Also got physio assessment today so see how that goes. I'm so so so so so so so tired.4 -
You sound so worn out. [hug] Hang in there.1
-
Just for today ...
I will once again drink a glass of water every hour (day 3).
I do admit that I only do this "religiously" from 6 am to 4 pm, because after that I'll be out and about and not really thinking about it. Also, if I drink too much after, say, 6 pm, I'll need to pee all night long, so that's not happening.3 -
Thanks everyone for the congratulations re French assessment Feels great to get that done with.
Diet went out of the window a bit yesterday as:
- Decided to go out for dinner to celebrate. Had pizza and wine
- Had actually had some cake and crisps before assessment to 'make sure I was properly energised and alert'. I think this probably has to be the worst excuse ever!!!
Yesterday's commitments:
- Log everything I eat
- Stick to food plan
- 4 bottles water
- No alcohol
- Prepare for test
- Get speech ready
- Relax!
Today I will not treat my stomach like a dustbin.
It will be another big day. Big scary work deadline at 4pm that I'm totally not prepared for, then this evening I'm giving a speech to a fairly big audience. I expect it to be pretty controversial and am expecting to have lots of argument/potentially negativity in the debate following. So am a bit nervous. But it is on something I feel very strongly about, so it's worth it.
Going to be a tough day! Definitely not a day to promise no alcohol. After the speech tonight I'll need it - either for celebrating or sorrow drowning!
Looking forward to the weekend when I can rest... After that, I am going to STOP taking on so much!
Today's commitments:
- Log everything I eat
- Stick to food plan
- 3 bottles water
- 30+ minute lunch break
- Meditate
- Duolingo, French book
- Be awesome!4
