Ha! That is actually exactly what I dealt with last night! Nate gave himself a NASTY concussion at work yesterday and was put on a clear liquid diet. Poor thing!! After getting home from my first night of class I then ran back out to the store for white grape juice, jello, motrin and chicken boullion.
I got up early on Wednesday and did some yoga in my dressing room... then had some coffee before hopping in the shower. It was so nice! But then this morning I buried my head until 7 and was out the door at 7:30... ah well... there will be balance some day!!
Next week classes start in full force (or half time) but I will be in Math from 5:30 - 8:30 on Tuesday nights and Desktop Publishing from 5:30 - 8:30 Wednesday nights. Then I will walk for my Associates in May! Then i'm 1/2 way done!!! More if I just buckle down tight and take extra courses... sigh I will have to see if that is even possible. It's hard to get around without a car!
Nate is home today icing his head which is starting to turn a really pretty purple color, and eating Jello... I made yummy pulled beef yesterday that he was quite upset he couldn't eat! I think he can start eating tonight... it's not gonna be pretty I better plan on making 3 lbs of meat instead of 2!!

But what's different this time??
Okay so I am working on my 3rd day of not smoking cigarettes. It is highly annoying but not the epic mental battle I seem to remember from my previous attempts. So the question I ask is what is different this time? The main thing I think this time is that I am really just done. I don't want to smoke anymore (not that I don't get cravings because MAN I get them), I just don't want to be a smoker anymore. I am tired of letting cigarettes own my routine, now if I don't have to stop on the way home from work I just don't have to stop... Another reason is Nate. We spoke this weekend and have been talking about kids... he wants three (much to my suprise) but if i'm starting at 32 we are going to have to have one every 18 mos or so and I can't be thinking about getting healthy for all that stress on my body right before hand... I'm going to have to get into really good shape so I can do this and still be healthy afterwards. I am also much more able to be honest with myself now than I ever was before and with that comes higher self accountability.
As for right now I sit and grind my teeth without knowing I'm doing it, eat mints and candy like that's what I get paid to do, and look forward to my perfect little future that i'm despreatly trying to plan

another day
I did not make it to yoga on wed, or out of bed really at all on thursday. Under the weather. I am feeling better except for the headache but that too will pass. Tomorrow Nate and I are going to get pedicures (it's the only way I let him in bed without socks on) then home for painting of the dining room and christmas light removal from the front of the house! He's playing a tournament on sunday which stinks but at least it's not a two day! Anne and I have some sister time scheduled for sunday morning which should be nice since i've seen her 3 times in the past 5 weeks and she lives with me.
today is my last day of smoking. i am nervous about having enough self control (i forgive myself easily for transgressions against my own rules) but i will make it this time and am looking forward to the added benefit of possibly not having such a sour stomach all the time.
Tonight we are going to PF Chang's for Nates mom's birthday which should be interesting since his step dad and sister get along like two wet mad cats in a bag. At least it's a bit of dining entertainment. I wish i could just tell her that it's bad for digestion to be stressed out while you eat and she NEEDS TO STOP. But alas, i can not and will not. It's not my fight to fight, and it shouldn't be a fight anyway their mom is grown and can make her own decisions. It's not like he beats her or verbally abuses her, he's just kinda a bum...
I have started using the Pandora app and it's AMAZING!!! Been using maroon 5 channel for yoga and it's just tops >.<

winter
The winter doldrums... it's hard to move about when it's cold out... and it's easy to use that as an excuse!
I've been busy with holidays and my poor little boy kitty got a neuter, which he then licked at until we had to take him back to get flipped right side out again and glued shut. I won't elaborate but if you didn't get it read that sentence again. He lived in my bathroom for a week with a paper filled litter box... I now have a terrible odor in the bathroom which I can not get out!! I have scrubbed my tile and grout throughouly every night for the past three days with a bleach cleaner, cleaned the sink, toilet, and shower twice each and washed the shower curtain twice with bleach... still when I open the door I get hit in the face with it. No one else can smell it, everyone just says "it smells like bleach". Maybe i'm going crazy but if bleach smelled like what I smell no one would ever use it!!!
I managed to hold yoga at my house a few times during this hectic 3 week period but not to get to the studio... it's even harder without a car to get me there but I do what I can when I can. Classes are starting back up on the 18th, I will have to get that paid for stat! I also am considering trying to get to a few Zumba classes. I really need to feel comfortable in my skin. I'm tired of being sooo self concisous about my clothing and bigness >.<
Most of this winter break from school has been spent cleaning and ORGANIZING my stuff. I have quite a large box going for the yard sale and a big bag of clothing for donation as well. Seems like every time I get on top of the laundry situation at the house I turn around
My momma is facing some scary sounding heart conditions. Her specialist recommended waiting for a less invasive surgery to become available. I need to go get an echocardiogram.
This weekend Nate is only playing disc golf on Sunday so we are gonna try to get the dining room painted... i hate set up/clean up of paint and Nate hates painting so we split it that way! It really goes so much smoother and faster!
