Well here I am again for another drive by posting... seems like life has gotten the better of me lately. Both bad and good, but it has distracted me from my weight loss plan. Thank God I can keep coming back here to get down my thoughts!
I was really sick over the weekend, my doctor thinks I may have picked up an airborne bug in the gym Sunday because in the time I left the gym to the time I got to church, I was sick with cold sweats, racing pulse and cramping stomach. I won't go into detail about what happened next, but suffice it to say I missed most of the service laying on the couch in our meeting room which is near the bathroom. Ugh.
It managed to put me in bed for a day and that takes a lot for that to happen I assure you. My insides are still not completely normal but better.
I have been busy and good on my plan until the last two weeks ... multiple stresses and once again, lack of planning, and here I was not making good choices again. I haven't been to church in two weeks since I was out of town for Memorial Day and was house-and-dog-sitting at Joy's, so no weigh ins and then I missed Sunday because I was so sick. So, I'll have to weigh in on the gym scale tomorrow but I suspect it won't be good.
It seems like I get on a hot streak and then I struggle... I guess there is no magic potion to cure everything, but I am still very much in the fight and I won't give up, even if it takes me another year I will get there.
I have been worried about financial issues, dealing with my sister going in and out of the hospital constantly, and then having her give me crap for not giving enough $ to help our budget, which is not true, so I start thinking about having to find another place to live and support myself and my animals on a part-time job and whatever side work I can find.
Would leave at this moment? You bet I would, if it was just me. But it's my animals that I am concerned for. I know they're just pets to some but they are my family and my companions, and I would just roll up in a fetal position and stay there if I didn't have them. So I work through it and pray and try to stay on track. Sometimes I really miss my old house where I lived alone. But that's all in the past and there is indeed a future to look towards, right?
Good things are happening in my freelance art ventures... I have been commissioned to paint a large mural for a large Homeowner's Association and also to paint some wall hangings for Love INC's office. Plus I have some painting and drywall work coming up, and I just finished painting a baby's nursery and adding an accent graphic design on one wall, turned out great!
So all and all things seem to be on course, and I am still fighting the good fight.
Well I sat down to write a quick check-in and look what happened, I just spilled my heart out all over this page. Wow. I guess I neded to say some stuff.
Have great week all, I will make time later today to sit and catch up with everyone's journal.
Peace.
