Not sure I have much to say
How’s that for interesting, eh? Nothing like a title that just sucks you in with interest and suspense, eh? LOL
Seriously though, not much happening in my life right now. On the health front, I’ve completed my third day of the new diet. I’ve cheated in that I had a bite of a twix*bar (just one, small bite) and ate about 8 pieces of Life cereal. BUT, that’s all the cheating I’ve done. I have NOT had a pop (most importantly, I have not had a Mt. Dew). This means I have gone three whole days without caffeine! Woohoo!
And for the record, I’m okay with the cheating I’ve done. The point is to learn to eat better and take better care of myself. I’m kidding myself and everyone else if I think I’m going to make it through the 6 weeks without cheating. At least I didn’t eat a whole pint of ice cream!
Oh, and I did workout today.
Drew is in some kind of funk lately. Every day around dinner, the kid melts down. I mean MELTS DOWN! He is fine when I pick him up from daycare, but the minute we’re in the house it begins. I think I’ve figured out that he’s starving when he gets home, which is strange because they have an afternoon snack, then they have snacks for the kids to eat on the way home. But I couldn’t figure out what else it was. So today I had yogurt waiting for him the minute he walked in. Then he ate cheese, then a whole bunch of raspberries. I think I was right; he’s been hungry! At least now I know what needs to happen.
My dad was in Saudi Arabia this past week on work. He sent an email to my brother and I tonight saying there is a lot of business for us (the company the three of us own and work for) over there! This is pretty exciting. If all goes well, and my dad retires from the U of MN, and takes the current job offer at another university, he’ll have the time needed to work on these other projects. How cool is that?! It could be good money for us, great experience for us, and I may even get to travel there!! Of course, none of this is firm, so it could never happen. We’ll see…
Told ya I didn’t have a whole lot to say!
