You girls are so sweeeeeeeeet! Its been a crappy week -- but it happens and I guess its passed. Diet nose-dived a bit in conjunction w/ my attitude, but back on track. Mostly cuz I have no appetite at all right now so I may just run w/ that for a few days.
I had a realtor come thru my house at 10:30 this morning and then had what I think was an excellent phone interview just now w/ a company locally - literally 10 min up the road. Oh the irony. THey are direct competitors of the company I got the rejection call from yesterday. GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.
But anyway... .While driving around waiting for the realtor to go thru my house this morning I walked thru a local Pier 1 (LOVE THEIR FURNITURE...!) and then hit the discount shelf at Borders. I bought a "How to draw animals" thing for $7. That will be my personal relaxation time today.
As a friend has reminded me, patience is a virtue, and as my cat reminds me every minute, "don't sweat life .. just lay back & let someone scratch your belly!"

The positive thing is people are looking at the house! You should post up a pict of the first animal you draw!

OMG I made it back to the gym! As per the above whiner posts, its been a rough week, very probably a hormonal thing as well. I've just noticed a very tangible feeling of depression and lack of energy. Sometimes it happens, so I let it happen, dealt w/ it, indulged the diet a little and now I'm back on track, again proving to myself how therapeutic the gym is and how a bag of even my favorite m&ms just doesn't really fix anything. I'm still pretty consistent w/ no appetite so its absolutely been boredom or frustration eating. Again, this whole proving to myself that the junk food doesn't satisfy anything. I will say I've had a couple of the South Beach Diet pizzas - they were on sale for $2.50 per -- I've had the most obscene craving for jalapenos lately so I've gotten the cheese pizzas (around 300 cals, 35 g carb) & loaded them up w/ grilled chicken & jalapenos - not really a bad meal and certainly fixes the hot craving.
