I Cannot Stop Eating!
My tendonitis is acting up so I haven't been able to run since I got back. Usually I just eat light and do mild exercise, but not this time. I am doing zero exercise and eating anything and everything that crosses my path. Last night I sat in front of the TV eating Halloween candy, then decided queso and chips would be good. This was all after a healthy grilled chicken dinner. This morning I had 2 oatmeal raisen cookies and about 5 mini cinnamon rolls and it's not even 10AM! I think I am possessed. Or my stomach knows the holidays are right around the corner... Whatever it is, I do NOT like it.
On a bright note, tomorrow is Friday. Any plans for the weekend??
Re: I Cannot Stop Eating!
I am the same way right now. I am blaming it on stress. Even when I'm not hungry I am always looking for a snack. It's awful but I can't stop myself.
No big weekend plans. I'm hoping to get the leaves cleaned up in our yard, and maybe start some holiday shopping, cleaning, or decorating. I want to have our outdoor lights ready to turn on Thanksgiving weekend. We have them on a timer and it's so nice to come home from work to see the front of the house all lit up. Getting home in the dark is depressing.
Hmm. That is like a middle of the night snack for me.
TGIT! It's my friday! Whooo! I am working like a mad woman on my year end review (due at 3) and wrapping stuff up because on going on vacation, vacation, vacation (I'm singing this).
Tonight we have a playgroup.
Tomorrow is DS's birthday. DH is OOT and I'm all alone so I suppose I will hold DS and cry all by myself. We are going to pick up his cake from Whole Foods bright and early, play, nap, then he has pix at 1. I suppose we'll have a yummy dinner together and open a few of the other presents he has.
Saturday- rush around, run errands, get a birthday present for a party Sunday, yadda yadda.
Sunday, DH gets home in the afternoon, but we have a party to go to, drop the dogs off at the kennel, and get packed.
We leave for my sister's on Monday morning.
I had cycles like that where sometimes I wouldn't be very hungry and other times I couldn't eat enough. At one point this spring I was hungry every 3 hours like clock work. Stomach growling, I'll eat my own hand if I don't get food now hungry. It's weird.
I'm going to a concert with friends tomorrow (Straight No Chaser), Saturday I'm having dinner with my group of friends from HS and I'm going to tell them I'm pregnant. So that will be fun. Nothing for Sunday.DH loves this group. I would have gotten him tickets if I'd known they were in town. Report back about how it was!
It's a little early for the weekend post and I think that's taken over the original subject of the post, haha! Anyhoo, no plans for Friday, just a dinner for my dad's birthday on Saturday, and then a volleyball tournament all day Sunday that I'm really looking forward to. The tallest girl on my team is like 5'4" but we've pretty much kicked @ss every time we've played together
Punky you sound like you have a very busy weekend ahead of you, and I am super jealous today is your Friday. The way my week's been going I wish I could be done today as well. Don't cry at DH's birthday! Be glad you get to be there for it, and be sad that H doesn't. Anyway, have a great weekend and vacation!!
Rock, I am sorry the weekend recap is so early. I was rambling and didn't know how to end my post lol.
No apologies necessary! It's just nice to know that on Fridays and Mondays there will be at least one interesting post on this otherwise still-too-slow board, haha! We're definitely picking up the pace around here a bit though and I like it!
Ooo. I just heard Straight No Chaser for the first time the other day. They sound like a lot of fun. I'm sure the concert will be great.
Congrats! In my lurking I somehow missed the announcement. So excited for you.
