I'm full

What an odd sensation! I've been hungry for over a year! Sadly, my situation is 'cause I ate too much.

I'm scuttling the no dairy thing. I misplanned. I'm putting it off a little; I think I'll still try it. I have done it before, even over the last year. But I goofed in what I planned for the week. A timing issue. I'm still going to keep it to one carb meal a week (for now), for as long as it's feasible.

Well, true confession time. My one meal off turned into two. We went to town for an unplanned for event, and ended up eating out (Mexican food--YUM!). I had a lot of protein, which is good. I also had a few cookies--not as good. Alright. Show's over. Nothing to see here. I'm back on the wagon, even tonight.

It's been a kind of weird week. I've been having to do extra driving/standing (recital season for Anna--violin and dance), and it's taking its toll, both with my pain and fatigue issues.

I can do alright for awhile, but eventually cracks show in the plaster. I'll catch my jaw set on "firm" and notice the ache. It's a physiological response to pain. Then I get edgy, and start feeling like I'm being a git. This afternoon, I ended up dozing on the couch, which helped. I was pleased to notice my pain and fatigue levels were both reduced.

Sadly, my anticipated day of being home all day tomorrow won't happen. I need to pick up and return a kid who's coming over to play with Anna. I hadn't planned on it being tomorrow, but fate was against me! I know it's important for Anna, but crikey, I wish Mark wasn't working a day shift tomorrow and could do some of the ferrying. Ah, well. It'll be ok. I want to make Anna happy. Looks like Monday we can stay at the casa for the whole day.

Alright, back to your regularly scheduled life, already in progress...
