I've had more drama the last year or so than I think I have my whole life. A friend at work described it perfectly by saying that I use to be boring, she could guess what I'd say I did over the weekend all the time. But since I moved I've had new drama almost every week.
So it's no surprise that something came up this week. Yesterday morning I was getting ready for work when I heard my husband's cousin crying. I peek in her room to see what's up and she says she is moving to a different state and flying out tomorrow. Oh and she's so stressed about it she can't watch my son that day. I was floored. The move was news to me so I asked how long she's been planning this and she responded with "since like 9 last night, that's why I'm so stressed", with a "duh" look on her face. Mind you I was minutes from walking out the door and now I have no sitter.I quickly start calling anyone I can and luckily had a friend who happened to live on my way to work who could watch him. I wasn't even late.
It threw my whole day off though. I felt edgy and bad that I had to mess up my son's routine even more. I wanted to eat. Plus we had all sorts of goodies, nachos, fries, popcorn. All my weaknesses. But I did not cave once. Not even when I didn't get my lunch (again) and ran into the break room to make my sandwich. I so just wanted to add a bunch of chips. I probably could've used the calories to be honest but I didn't want them just because I was hungry but because I was emotional. This feels like progress. I know it's just one day but sometimes that one day is the start of many more. But a little less drama would be nice.
Total burned 2978 |
Total deficit of 1638. And I'm tracking my water now too because I feel like I drink so much water. Tracking it day by day I've been surprised so far that I don't drink as much as I thought. |
