Well, hmmm. Planned on working out today, but haven't as yet. I did a workout yesterday - first one in a very long time. Wasn't a very good workout, but it happened. And felt good about that. Food ... going.... okay. Not great still, but better choices. Still just eating too many calories and not getting nearly enough exercise. Hopefully I will change all that really soon. I don't like weighing in the mid 130's at all. Clothes don't look good (the ones that I can fit!) and I'm not comfortable with my own body at this weight. Have to stop turning to food to soothe myself.
Appointment tomorrow with our daughter - sure hope we get some answers or at least nudged in the right direction. Can't continue like this indefinitely. Think we're all reaching the breaking point at this rate. I probably have my expectations up there a little too far for one appointment. Doesn't help that it took so long to get in to see this guy. Anyway, maybe after tomorrow I can renew my focus. Hope so!
So... trying to change my attitude right now and thought - hmmm... Bren said something about laughter. Made me think about something that happened last night. Our remaining cat, Ali, is super skittish - has been for the 16+ years we've had her, must be part of her make up. Anyway, over the last couple of years she's started this weird habit of bolting out of the laundry room sometimes after doing her business. (Okay, now granted - the laundry room is a terrible place for a skittish kitty's litter box, but really, it's about the only place that makes sense in this house. And it's been there... well, since we've lived here ... 13+ years. So even if she doesn't LOVE the location, she's used to it.)
Anyway - finally figured out that the times she BOLTS out of the laundry room is when she's .. uh... poo'd. My husband I joke that we're going to put a box outside the door. She makes a quick turn right after the doorway in front of the TV table. So last night she goes in the laundry room and I think, I need a chuckle. It's just my daughter and I in the family room watching TV. So I grab a blanket from the sofa and stand in front of the TV table, holding the blanket lengthwise so it touches the ground in front of me. Mean? Man, I hope not. Anyway, she's in there ... FOREVER. Finally after about five minutes, I hear the scratching at the litter and I'm all prepared for her to run into the blanket (I'm not really sick) and she SAUNTERS out of the laundry room, sniffs the edge of the blanket as she CALMLY makes her way around the blanket! Like it's ALWAYS there! lol... Guess she got the last laugh.
Anyway, it gave me a laugh thinking about it and telling my husband about it later.
