What is Something Good You Did Today?

[-m1-]

It would sound crazy if I posted this anywhere else but here... actually it still sounds crazy.

I left the house today for the first time in over 5 days.

The dog had run out of dog food. There was naught getting around it.

Honestly, for a crazy moment, I actually was looking in the fridge/freezer thinking "is there any people food I could give him just to get by tonight? Hmmmmm.... there's those frozen breakfast burritos"..... and the dog (big ole pit/boxer mix) is standing next to me at the fridge with a look on his face that says "OH HELL YES.... please and thank you on the dinner of breakfast burritos".

And I just thought this is ridiculous. To find it so excruciating to be out and about and around people.

So I actually left the house, drove to the store and got his food.

I'm feeling all proud of myself now... but I'm also wondering how the hell my life got here. Bitter-sweet bitter-sweet comedy-tragedy.

dang.

This might not be so good for me, but it tastes...oh so good! I made donuts today from refrigerated biscuits...very cheap and very naughty. :naughty: I think I ate about six of them. I lost count after the second one....

That sounds very good. I made sopapillas last night and have left over dough, wonder if I could try something like that? Who am I kidding I will probably make more of the same with all the honey. I barely ate a thing yesterday so I did not feel guilty!

Supposed to make rice crispie treats with my daughter today. Have I mentioned how my diet is going LOL?

I guess this qualifies as something good - I asked for help 2x today and even used the H word (help) once and I only got a little angry at myself for doing it.

How do you make your rice crispie treats - we do the regular and add peanut butter - good but not so healthy!

We just do the butter and marshmallows. She is supposed to assist me in making a cherry pie later this week. Since I do not like cherries and my teen who eats like a horse loves them my eating plans of stay away from sweets should be safe!

This happened the other day but it still qualifies. We had a branch meeting the other morning at work and everyone was invited (AKA manditory). For refreshments my boss ordered donuts. Couldn't convince him to get bagels for less fat and better for you. But I digress.

Donuts are a particular weakness of mine. I brought my breakfast of a cup of yogurt and a banana and ate it at my desk prior to the meeting. I got past the table with the donuts without giving in. Proud of myself that I kept to good eating and not snagging 12 delicious grams of fat.

Absolute bang up day. Not any anxiety whatsoever. Very very cool in my book. I was so excited and told hubs. He tiredly said good. I was disappointed he wasn't more excited with me as this is one of those thing that just would never happen! Bright and sunny out, cool temperatures, windows wide open... And me just kicking back and soaking all the "I feel good" feelings in. What a breath of fresh air.

I drove yesterday and got very sick. Anxiety kicking my ass all over. Today though I was over it and drove again. Two days in a row!!

Insomnia still kicking my butt for the last couple weeks so I am going to try a OTC sleeping aid. I plan to get up before sunup and hit the road with my little girl and Cookie so I really need some rest. We are going to go fishing and picnic at the state fishing lake. This will be a huge leap for me driving that far and to do something alone (no other adult). I cannot recall the last time I did that. I need to pack our gear and have liver sitting out getting ripe (going for catfish) and once that is done I am trying the sleeping aid and curling up on the computer with a movie to pass out to. Same thing as Nyquil has in it so I figure it will be fine.

Hope everyone else is doing well.

I took the twins to mums and tods group- 1st time i'd been brave enough since before the summer hols- had missed the 1st three weeks of term coz kept bottling out of being around all those other new babies and heavily pregnant women- but finally bit the bullet and made it.

Felt very smug and proud of myself when we pulled up- when we got in i got told i'd been struck off the list for poor attendance and couldn't come anymore- but i still made it- even if they didn't realise what a big deal that was.

Am able to laugh at how narrow minded they are rather than feel bad for getting my kids kicked out of baby group. Tomorrow will try and find a new group with more laid back and understanding attitude

I saw the pig that arrested me for disorderly conduct (I wasn't too polite to him when he called me a nazi) and I didn't even give him the bird....
Hell guys, it's better than what I could have done!

Made it fishing at sunrise and spent a large part of the day there! We drowned a lot of bait, had a great picnic, and we learned Cookie loves the lake. She could not get enough of us throwing the baseball in the water to fetch. She and my little girl had a blast. (So did momma) I am pooped. My daughter wants to go back tomorrow LOL... Maybe next week.

Well done V! I'm so proud of you! I'm so very happy you had a great time too (and Cookie and the little pumpkin!) Excellent news!
