Step on the scale day to day and everything is okay. My weight flucuates about 3 pounds on average, and I can lose five pounds. However, in reality it is really 2 pounds since it goes up and down by three.
What really bothers me is when you gain five pounds on top of the fluctuation... it takes forever to lose it, and then you can't lose anymore. That is why I am forever tying to lose 10 pounds. 10 pounds is really 5 pounds and allows for that +/- 3 pounds.
Well, I gained that five pounds this weekend. I guess that is what 12 Long Island Ice Teas, Pizza, and Hamburgers will do to you, or maybe it is just my own punishment for being weak when haning around the ex. Oh well, tomorrow is another day, I guess I'll start working out again and start another diet... I guess eating Nachos for dinner the last three nights hasn't helped either. Ugh! I hate being a girl that packs on the pounds for thinking about food. :-)

Sleeping in the whole bed
I finally did it! I finally slept on my "whole" bed instead of one small corner. Last night I slept in the middle of the bed. My covers were all strewn about, and I actually had to make my bed instead of just fix it. I guess I am finally growing up. :-)

A compressed work week: four 10s
Wondering why I am up at 12:15 AM on a Thursday evening. No I am not drunk, or just getting home, but it is hard to fall asleep when you didn't get up until almost noon. I am fortunate enough to be partaking in a "condensed" work week schedule so I have Thursday's off. Lucky for me, that I also have today off because I had some vacation time.
It was an interesting day. I got up, went to get my blood drawn, had a pedicure, came home to clean, take a nap, teach my workshop, do some homework, watch a movie, and now... I am up writing to my blog.
Unfortunately for me, I don't know if my bank account or my sanity will be able to sustain me having another day off. In theory, it is great to have another day off, to do whatever you want... but my life is so simple that I don't need extra time. In fact, time is my enemy now that I have no boyfriend, my sister is away for 3 months, all my friends work, and I am broke because I have a mortgage. Not a good combination. Well, I refuse to give up on the schedule because I know management is just looking for an excuse to take it away. I just have to stick it out, I will figure out a routine.
I really think I will either take on more classes to teach, start looking for a new job, or try to find a part-time job I can do no Thursdays and Saturdays. Any suggestions?
