I haven't even gotten dressed yet and today is fired.
Mostly because it began too early.
Sort of.
See, Teh Unit opens my door about 5:30-6, maybe later, I'm assuming it was that hour. No later than 6:30. To inform me my window is open. Now I KNOW the window is open. I opened it. I like to sleep chilly, under my blankets. Then I close it in the morning and the room warms up and I get moving. But she wakes me out of a sound sleep to tell me that it's open and she'd heard the wind and did I want her to close it. Um, NO I want you to LEAVE ME ALONE! I wasn't able to go right back to sleep. I was so stressed from having to come to full awakeness to comprehend what she was saying, then respond, that I couldn't fall back into deep sleep. I got up about 8:15 and shut my window, because the only thing resounding in my head was "Your window is open *echo* open open open open */echo* I went back to bed and my alarm went off. I remember surfacing for Angel, now on at 8AM, and some for Charmed, on at 9AM, but it took hearing ER to get me awake. See I wanted to be at the clients at 10. It was now ten. So I got up, showered, I've got coffee and had a muffin bar, and all I have to do is throw on some clothes and go. But I really wanted to post about it first.

I mean DAMN "Your window is open."? WTF??? I know it is, do you think I have imps that open the window when I'm not looking???

*sighs* I don't think I'm going to have a chance to post or whatever from the client. he hired someone new (thank the GODS) and I'm assuming she's going to be breathing down my neck. And maybe I'll have to be booted at 2, since I WANTED to get there early. Argh. I need to quit this guy.

OK, I'm off to dress and go. Laters.

I've taken to weighing myself when I feel "off" I'd been slowing gaining, which REALLY bothers me as I've steadily gained wince not the past, but the year BEFORE tax season. Stress, of which I had a LOT of, causes me to eat, one of the few things that ALWAYS comforts me. Duh - *points at my butt!*

Anyway, I've been feeling a bit too much, and noticed the "too much" feeling subsiding a bit, so I hopped on day or two ago, and found I'd dropped some. Not much, like 4 pounds, but since it's usually a slow and steady increase that was nice.

Now, I'm trying to figure out the WHYs. I've been very money poor recently, yet still do nothing but eat. So, where's the cause? I'm thinking one is obvious - the cut out of the fast food. I haven't been able to afford to eat the way I did - I have to take my money and stretch it out at the grocery. And what little I have left doesn't cover dinner at Wendy's every night. I also think my morning breakfast and coffee have something to do with it. I make SURE to eat something, so I'm not starving by midday, and I'm not ravenous and cranky by dinnertime. I'm finding myself EATING less at dinner. It also might be the cutting out of soda, but more I've cut DOWN on the soda. I still have it, I bought two bottles last night, as well as ice cream.

So I'm not a believer in denying myself my cravings. I wanted ice cream last night so I made it happen. I'm pretty happy with it. It's in there now, if I want it, and I can have a little and not run out and spend money on more. Like the soda, I had a craving.

So I'm thinking when I get paid on Friday and Monday I need to make a list and hit BJ's. I want to have steaks and chicken and other good things in the freezer, and I have my grill out, and if I'm using it constantly it will stay out. I'd like to encourage teh Unit to use it too. I figure if I separate everything into meal size portions, it'll be easier to deal with. I also am going to look into what I can get that's health(ier) as a side dish, maybe some frozen veggies, or maybe I'll do a bit of shopping weekly to fill that in with fresh.

I know this sounds rudimentary, but as much as I like food, I'd like it better if it wasn't all crap. It's good to know that changing just the little things have a nice big difference.

Time to go have a fashion crisis. *meep*
