Day 6 - May 29, 2014

So, it's day 6 and I'm eating moderate, nutritious meals. Nothing crazy. No sugar, no flour/cheese combo or binge foods - pb, rice/cheese/butter combo/ instant potatoes/butter/cheese combo. But, now I'm bored at work.   Only have 40 minutes to go to get to 4:30pm. I'm also a little hungry. For a snack, I could have a plain yogurt, but I don't have that on hand. I'm planning on turkey burger for dinner.  How can I make it better? Add sauce or add veggies and do a stir fry with potato/veggies/turkey burger and then a small salad that is left over.  And how to handle the evening.  Well, definitely want to watch Mad Men.  Could go for a walk.  Could ask Tracey.  Could go on treadmill.  Could rest. Oops, no.  Could do some laundry. Could do some crafty stuff with kids' pictures. Start decorating for graduation party. Feel tired. Hmmmm.....I have to say my body felt pretty good this morning!  And I feel pretty good that I got the WPI job, but not that excited about simply building a course.  Like to do Blackboard stuff too. So maybe the Instructional Technologist is better.  Maybe not though.  I will need to be in Blackboard as I'm building this course.  Helping the faculty member with the design.  Checking other courses. Got onto Coursera and saw some courses.  Great. I know that the cake sitting right next to me would set off a big craving, so I got a diet mountain dew. Yummy. My goal is to be my happy joyous self - doing crafty things that I've always liked even as a little girl, making those cards for my parents and doing stuff in girl scouts.  That's me! And that's sweet. Nice. Nice mommy things to do. Sew, knit, scrapbook. And...I like to exercise..run...do yoga. I can do those things.  I want to live my life. Not fall down down down to the pits where my parents wanted me to be. Fall.....But also just take it easy.  It is only day 6 and that is not long. Take it easy.  Knit and watch tv after work.  Still under a lot of pressure with kids and college and job stuff!!!
