Joanna - 1/6/10

Yesterday I was WIPED out by about 8:00 pm. That is normally when I get a second wind so I was confused when that never hit. However, I cut my pop intake way back yesterday and drank much more water, so I'm sure my body was just in a bit of a shock from not being constantly fed caffeine. So by 10:00 I was asleep and I'm pretty sure I haven't gone to bed that early in MONTHS - It's a good night if I'm asleep by midnight.

Food:

1. yogurt & string cheese
2. cottage cheese in a wrap
3. lean cuisine w/ celery
4. cottage cheese w/ apple
5. soy nuts
   
6. omelet w/ veggies, yogurt/fruit shake and toast

Exercise: I felt good today. I know that I'll look back in a few weeks after crossing that hurdle of remembering what exercise felt like and feel stronger. Right now I kind of beat myself up for how far behind I feel. But I'm trying for PROGRESS too. I am sore, sore, sore - but I'm grateful for that.

How I feel: Good. I feel like I need about 5 more (uninterrupted by children) hours in my day - but unless I figure that out - I'll have to figure something else out....I am also wishing that going grocery shopping and stuff wasn't such a pain with my kids. There are things I'm finding as I go along that I wish I had at my fingertips - but when I get thinking about taking my 2 crazies to the store - I decide something I already have at home will have to do. I need to workout a schedule with that.

Gratitudes: I'm grateful today to have a husband who wants to support me on this journey. His idea of support and my idea of support might not be the same thing....but I'm grateful that he at least is *trying* to be as supportive as possible.

I'm grateful for sunshine and a beautiful earth.

I'm grateful that it looks like the computer techie guys are going to be able to recover most of my digital scrapbooking files that I thought were lost when the hard drive I was using went kaput. Yeah!
