Someone ran into my car in Aug., geez the car place was suppose to fix my car in 2 days so I didn't get a rental and it took all week. I found myself stressed and wanted to pig out but I asked myself if I was hungry or it was emotional. I told myself to wait it out and am glad I did. Also same car got windshield broke from…
I've had a horrible week at work. Thinking of changing jobs, and maybe changing careers, but I'm feeling kind of stuck right now, for a lot of reasons. Then last night my husband casually mentions that he thinks I'm boring. (I already know he doesn't find me attractive, so add boring to that and what have we got? Nothing?)…
Air conditioning has been out for 3 days, the first day they came the motor was running and they put Freon in and said give it a whle and see if it was the motor. Well the motor conked out an hour later, I had to go to Walmart to get a small unit for hundred bucks but worked great and made us comfy. They came yesterday and…
I guess ya remember a couple of months ago my best friend/neighbor died. I thought I would be sad for life. I miss her so much. Well I just got back from a trip to the Smokey Mountains which helped a lot. I don't really know why but I guess it is because I found out I could have some happiness. This week we are headed for…
Tomorrow is the beginning of May and my favorite part of the year. The beginning of May through the end of October/ early November is the best time of year (at least here in the Pacific Northwest, IMO). So I'm going to get my plans together and get going. I think I'm finally breaking through the wall I hit several weeks…
So I just found out that my sister is moving to Texas in a couple of months. She is my best friend, my rock, my confidant, and the only person in the world who is always ready with some tough love when I need it. It has just hit me that, while I'm happy for her for this new adventure, I'm really upset about it and that…
Hi - just checking in to see if anyone is still part of this group. I'm trying to pull myself out of a rut and get motivated and back on track. This awful long Chicago winter has resulted in me feeling like a total slug wanting to curl up on my couch in my jammies and eat comfort food whenever I'm not at work. I look and…
I have adult children. They don't come in for Thanksgiving but we do get together Christmas. This year my daughter is ready to have a baby so she will be up in couple of weeks. We usually get together a week before Christmas so they can do with their inlaws and go to their Dads house. We were divorced. Anyway, hubby and I…
The past couple weeks I have had a terrible cold and coughed so much my side hurt and yep, you guessed it, food seems to console me and ease the pain. While intellectually I know it doesn't, I guess it is a bad habit. I guess just dust myself off when I do this and start over, cant guarantee I wont do it again. I am ok…
On Sunday, I gave my new shoes for Insanity a test run and found they worked fabulously! My other shoes were making my arches hurt so badly that I almost gave up on my beloved Insanity program. Since I had no pain and lots of energy, I went full steam ahead. After I got all cleaned up, my body brought it to my attention…
