I'm still here

I feel kind of bad that I haven't been updating much. I just can't help it! I think "I'm going to blog today) and the next thing you know it's 9:00 at night and I'm tired and don't even want to get online and mess with anything. Summer is bad for me for that. Looking back at my craft blog, I blogged SO much more during the colder parts of the year. I just can't seem to get any steam during the summer - I'm too busy trying to avoid the heat and actually doing anything.

But on to weighty stuff. I'm pretty much 100% certain that I'm going to see a gain tomorrow. I've been a piggy the entire weekend, eating fast food and chocolate ice cream. I knew when I was eating it that I shouldn't be, but I didn't care. I still pretty much don't care lol! I've noticed that not only does my craft muse leave me in the summer, but my willpower does too. I usually only eat once a day, late in the evenings and I eat a big meal. I drink cold drinks all day, varying from water to powerade to soda. I do what's comfortable, not necessarily healthy. My shopping cart this weekend consisted of a case and a half of powerade, two cases of water, lunch stuff for Paul and salad and sandwich stuff for dinners. I don't want to even cook on the stovetop, much less in the oven right now. On Saturday it was 106 degrees. Yuck!

I know a lot of my posts about the weather come off as whiny and bitchy and I know it's annoying. I need to remember that when I'm bemoaning how miserable I am. It's not fun to read.

Tired

I'm tired today. I finally got my craft room cleaned up and though I'm proud of it and happy it's done, I'm sore and cranky. Sometimes I just get sick of the everyday hustle, you know? I have it easy by a lot of peoples standards...I don't have to work, we don't have kids and most of the time my husband is great. I hate days like this where I'm in a funk for no reason. I hope it gets better as the day goes on!

Yesterday was a meh day food wise. I did well all day, until dinner (like normal!) We had barbeque chicken, some amazing cheddar bread and I ate cherry cheesecake for dessert. I should have known better, if for no other reason than I haven't been eating much sugar the past couple of weeks and the cheesecake sent me spinning. I was physically sick to my stomach after I ate it and need to remember that next time I decide to indulge in something that I know I shouldn't be eating.

We're coming up on the weekend again and this one's going to be a little different. My husband has been working a lot of overtime lately and he's burned out. He does forklift driving and loads custom made patio doors onto trucks. Most of these are 200+ pounds apiece and some of the bigger customs are 400 pounds. He loads most of the 200 lb. ones by himself. He managed to get his boss to allow him to take a couple days of his vacation, despite being their busy season. He needs it and I think it'll do a world of good, but it also means that he'll be home to throw off my schedule (sounds awful, doesn't it?!) I don't care though, I'll be happy to have him home and maybe he can go back to work next week feeling a little fresher. It does mean that I probably won't update much, but I will if I can, just to keep me honest.
