Blig blag blahg...

I LOST FIVE POUNDS!!!!! Whee! I wasn't sure I could do it but now I know I can so sticking to "The Program" will be easier. I eat whatever I want, just less of it and I have to plan ahead. I've also been walking, which gives me more points to use during the week.

Today is Sunday, and it has been a very different Sunday than those of the past months/years. My psychiatrist suggested not going back to bed AT ALL after I get up in the morning. Now, in the past, I would spend Sunday in bed napping/watching football. Well, today I have been sitting on the couch not napping but still watching football. Perhaps it doesn't seem like a big change, but for me, it is.

In a few days I'm heading out for another vacation with the parental units. We're going to visit Ethan in MI and then on to Niagara Falls. I'm looking forward to it as we all get along pretty well most of the time.

Other than that, not much is going on. I'm working on my meds, trying to get rid of the stupid feeling I have most of the time now. I think Weight Watchers is going to help with my overall well-being just because it's something to focus on and the first real goal I've had in a long time. With that, I shall bid you adieu. TTFN!!

New blog, sorta...

I'm going to be blogging my progress with Weight Watchers Online over on their site. Go here for fun and exciting posts about my issues with food and exercise.

Also, I apparently helped someone with one of my posts, which really made my day. Thanks to Shawn for the great pick-me-up!

Blogging is SRS BZNS!

And I don't take it very seriously. Does that make me a bad blogger? Absolutely. A bad person? Probably not, but I guess it depends upon your chosen deity's position on the subject. In any case, I don't care. I started doing this for fun, not to change the world.

First thing I feel like talking about: Cory. He's 16. And driving. I am SO OLD!!!! I don't feel old but I must be because there is no way my little potato-shaped baby godson is 16! He's a great kid and cute to boot. Hey, that rhymes...

Next, there is NO SUCH THING as a happy period, Always. Nor a cute tampon, Tampax.

So here's the thing, I'm signing up for Weight Watchers. My BMI is in the Obese range and whatever I've been doing to correct that on my own is not working. I wish I was one of those people who could take control and do it on my own, but I'm not. I need help, and apparently I'm finally willing to ask for it. So hopefully the next time you see me there will be less of me. It's about time.

Anyway, that's all I feel like writing right now, so I'ma post this bad boy and go back to watching The Mentalist. Which is an awesome show. TTFN!!!

On the Road and Stuff

Well, I'm on the way home from my vacation to visit my brother and a friend from college. I'm tired and crabby and realized today that I really need new tires, which I sort of knew, but it's not something you want confirmed at 70 mph in the middle of Chicago traffic in the pouring rain. Tires cost money, though, so I'll have to make do for a couple more months.

I had a really good time on my vacation; went to a beach, met some new people, babysat a little, and just generally enjoyed myself all over the place. I also discovered Steak 'n Shake, which, of course, we don't have in MN. I'll add that to the list of food I have to travel long distances for, along with In-N-Out Burger and Bob Evans. I wonder if there's somewhere I can move to that has all three. I would call it the Magic Triad.

I've got lots more to blog about, including my upcoming month off, realizing after years of unintentionally misrepresenting myself that I actually AM an agnostic, and just the general hatred of humidity that is ever-present during the summer. Hope all are having a great June! TTFN!!

You wanna fight about it?

OK, so it's been a while. I'm not going to make excuses, and I'm not going to apologize. I've had other things going on and blogging hasn't been a priority. Will it be from now on? Who knows. We'll see. The reason I'm here today is I was re-reading some of the old stuff and realized I can be a pretty funny bitch on occasion. Not necessarily hilarious, but amusing enough for some. I've also been doing some soul-searching and crap like that, none of which you'll be interested in, but it has given me some insight into myself, which should inform this forum.

That's all there's going to be for today, as I have a headache and wish to retire, but look forward to some of my unique brand of blogitude in the coming weeks. TTFN!!
