What’s your biggest remaining challenge?
First of all, let me laugh at the blog name Foodio54. Clever. I have some really great old music running through my head now. Perhaps I date myself. (OK, in the 70s I was like, ten, but still!)
Now, down to business. Mark Salinas stumbled my second Influencer post (thanks, Mark!). When I checked out his [...]

Hi, all! I wanted to continue to my second posts (see first here) about the Influencer by Patterson, et al.
But first, let me say, I really reflected on the last post. And, I feel really emotional about saying I believe, probably for the first time in my life, that I can do this. (Or else [...]

It’s 10am and I had a rough morning. The whole family was crabby and difficult today. Impatience and miscommunication were rampant. And I didn’t handle it well. This was not one of my stellar Perfect Wife and Mother Moments.
I’m now home alone starting my work day, feeling kinda crappy.
So, how am I going to handle [...]

I don’t know what’s going on (other than it’s not PMS). I’m tired. Out of sorts. Blah. I want to eat. I crave chocolate. I want to weigh myself every hour. I want to sleep.
I want a responsibility-free day. But that’s not going to happen. So I’m just going to put one foot in front [...]

I don’t know, but some days, pie still seems like a pretty good answer.
I found Jen Lancaster’s book Such a Pretty Fat (and her blog) via Elastic Waist. Her blog gave me a some good chuckles, so I decided to give it a read to take a break from all the Very Serious Stuff I [...]

First, no one would have known today was a cranky day. I don’t tend to stomp around and be an obvious crank. But I really was colossally cranky. Wow. I was resentful that circumstances prevented my completing my 2.5mi weekend swim yesterday (I finished it this afternoon). I was cranky about just everything! It just [...]

There I was, face-first into a batch of blueberry blintzes this morning, rationalizing that I was really making them for my dear husband (being the kind caring selfless wife that I am, you know) and well, they were fairly low cal (90) and low fat (11%) and, of course, I deserved them having had a [...]

Very funny article on the Onion: Smiling Now Primarily Used To Communicate Anger
Hmm. I do smile a lot…
***********
OK, I was going to leave this post at that — a light little funny link for a Friday.
But, after pondering it in the shower, I need to add more. There’s a serious side.
For years, when [...]

Well, apparently no sleep and a big argument over something stupid and several little annoying life things don’t “work” for me.
Calgon, take me away!
If only I had gotten some Calgon. Instead I went to Wendy’s. Ugh.
Writing it down. Back to water. Right back on track instead of free-for-all-for-rest-of-day.

I came home.
My darling husband had fed and bathed the kids and gotten them in their ‘jamas.
Ah. A relaxing night.
But then…
One kid dropped a full water pitcher on the floor and it broke. While I was on the phone.
Another knocked over a glass of water on the table.
Then the toilet overflowed. After my darling husband [...]
