Saturday night was eventful, but without going into a long drawn out story, I'll sum
It all up by this...
6,756 steps
2.74 Miles
942 cal. burned
64 Mins. Recorded by my FitBit.
I'm nosy and want to know the details!
JFT:- Walk
- Laundry
- Tidy kitchen
Briefly: My oldest daughter calls me in distress around 9p.m.
Boyfriend beat her
I don't have a car, noone else available and she lives 35 miles away.
Daughter said he put her out she was in her socks,jeans, and a thin
Sweat jacket type.....no shoes. Police were called from her end, meanwhile
I walked to my ex's apartment, got his car to go rescue her.
That's where the miles and walking came in. Daughter is with me for now.
So sorry, Mary! I'm glad she's with you now. π2 -

1. Log food(making homemade soup so I will attempt) Logged everything but the spices because I did them to taste
2. Drink 2 32oz cups of water Had to chug the last one down as I was laying bed but I got it done!
3. Fold clothes This usually takes like 45 minutes at least because I fold a certain way and there was like 4 loads of them. Lol

7. Bed prep by 930 10
8. Lights off by 10 1030 but at least it wasn't as bad as it usually is.
Had a good evening even though I am still sick. I can feel the cold starting to settle into my chest I think. I have a bottle of orange juice sitting in my fridge. I think I need to throw my calories out the window to drink that to try and make it go away. I hate being sick. This is only the 2nd or 3rd time I've been sick since I quit smoking 2.5 years ago. Went to bed a little later then I want. It's the DH's fault. Lol. It was still a reasonable time though so I'm not too upset. Although I did have a hard time falling asleep. Took me like 15-20 minutes. I know this doesnt sound like a lot but I'm usually out in less than 5 minutes. Lol.
Today I am back to work After the terrible way Friday ended I'm really hoping that this week is better. Veteran's Day is next Monday and we are off. I took the Tuesday and Wednesday after that off so I have 5 days off. I just need to make it through this week! Come on Friday! Lol.
It's going to be a wet and gloomy day today. I dont like it. It was gorgeous yesterday. Brisk but sunny. The leaves have all changed and are falling. I love it! This is my favorite time of year. Lol
Okay, enough chatter!

Oh Mary... I am so so sorry for your daughter. But it is good that she knows she can call you... and you could be there for her. Hugs to you dear friend.3 -

I am also getting my Beck book back out to read. I did great all week, until last nite. Emotions seem to get me. Hubby tells me that is just an excuse ... and I know he is right. So I really need to get back to remembering all the things to do when emotional eating and stress happens... distractions.... like closet cleaning, etc.4 -
Hugs all round to those who need them. This is such a tough time of year to stay on track, with weather becoming rubbish and all kinds of temptations like Halloween around. We can do this though - one day at a time.
I had a very indulgent weekend but am back on the horse today and determined not to be perfect, but to be happy. That means letting go a bit sometimes, but getting back to it soon after as I know I will feel awful after a while. So Iβm tired today and have serious sugar cravings but Iβm parking my weekend and ignoring them!!
