Not Giving Up

Thursday finds me in a lousy morning mood ... I think it's related to not getting enough sleep, being very busy at work and at home - I don't do well with feeling overwhelmed with the same old stuff every day.  But.  Sometimes being in a grumpy mood is just the thing to inspire me to grab my bootstraps and haul my butt up to the task, and get busy, work fast and decisive. So I did that and was out of my mood by mid morning.

I checked my hours for the week so far, and saw that I needed to take a two hour lunch - not my fav thing to do - but I had workout clothes in the car, so I grabbed them and headed on in, did 20 mins of cardio, some floor work stretches, and a few weight machines.  I felt really good after that :D

Talked to my sis today, things aren't going so well for my Dad.  The chemo drugs are taking a toll on his body.  They had to call 911 because he had a nosebleed that wouldn't stop.  They took him to the hospital, and released him 2 hours later.

I did well with the no candy, no sugar pledge I took yesterday -- until I heard from my sis after lunch.  Then I had to hit it hard:  A Reese's Peanut Butter Egg.  *sigh*   But it wasn't a bad day, calorie wise, and I was able to make some time at the gym, so overall, I'm OK with today.
