What is Something Good You Did Today?

I learned how to find the vertical, horizontal, and slant asymptotes. I'm very proud of my self because I NEVER thought I'd make it this far in math. YEAH ALGEBRA!

I made and apple pie the other day. The day after I made a pecan pie. Last night I made a triple layer chocolate cake that was to die for... I used hazelnut coffee in it and oh it is just better than, you get the idea. I have had a baking bug lately. Bec, you should come for a visit, I could fix your case of SAS in no time hee hee. I want to bake today but need to wait for the huge cake to be eaten. This is was a new experiment in the kitchen so I need to write it down before I forget, this is a PMSers dream cake.

MMMM sounds good V!

I drove to the mission today (it's where I get my smokes.) You have to drive over this nasty, falling apart scary-assed bridge to get there. Usually I go with Ryan as this bridge scares the crap outta me! But I did it myself today! (major breathing and talking to.. but I did it!)

Woo hoo! I hate bridges, I close my eyes and pray. Guess you can't if you are driving huh?

Today I posted an ass load of different things on freecycle. Which means I will have to call a lot of people back and have a lot of STRANGERS coming to my home. Of course I will only let them come while hubby is home, as that is common sense not paranoia, but it is major improvement. I placed 5 or 6 ads! I am finally giving away my size 1s - 3s jeans and some of my suits (I love my suits). I love my suits as I felt like I looked so sharp in them! Now all that fit are my extra large PJs! ACKKK! And if I keep baking it won't matter how much I walk LOL.

I was planning to try grocery shopping all by myself this weekend since I have driven almost everyday this week, but I think I am chickening out. Hubs pointed out it has been at least a couple years since going alone and he did not think it was a good idea. He is probably right, I should slow down and get used to just going with him. But he is no fun to do it with, that costs too much, that isn't worth that much, do we really need that??? What a drag he can be. He did say he would give me the cash and walk behind me mouth shut, but I bet he can't!

And why aren't you sending those damn jeans here? ;)

Wonder if your baking would put some meat on my bones? God I think I'm going to disappear soon! I lost more weight. :(

Now how in the hell did you manage that? You gotta love your stress (not). You don't need clothes, you need me to come up there and do some old fashioned Southern cooking and baking for you ;) At this rate it will be easy to spot me... I will be the one blocking out the sun LMAO. At least I have stopped gaining.

I am giving away a fridge which is cool since it is going to a group for emotionally disturbed teens they are trying to ready for life out in the world. Some of them have PTSD amongst bipolar, autistic, ect... The woman arranging pick up is having surgery on her shoulder since one of the kids got out of hand and got after her. So I am giving her my punching bag too since I no longer use it and she said she could use something for the kids to let their anger out on.

I finally decided to wash all of my windows , and mini blinds..the other day.....OMG.....I can see the world now. Can't believe how dirty they were. I couldn't move for 2 days afterwards, because I hurt so bad.....

Today I am thinking of making homemade Granola....Crap....another 5lbs on my butt to deal with...

I cleaned the kitchen, vacuumed the living room, and went through the mail.

There was a health fair for work today. I was waffling about going, but they offered New Year's Day off with pay if you attended...so I went. I had to fill out a questionairre (general health, family history, eating, exercise, etc.), get my bp checked, cholesterol and blood sugar. Then stand in endless lines for each station. I was proud of myself that I could stand in a very, very crowded room and keep it all together.

Everything came out in the 'good' category with the exception of one thing. Seems I run a high risk of being affected by stress and depression. Who'd a thunk it??? I was laughing reading my results on that one. The last thing we did was talk to a health counsellor about our results. Funny...she touched on all of my results except the stress and depression ones.

Ah well, at least I have an extra holiday with pay this year.

Halloween ended up being just great. Very very few kids for some reason. A lot of costume less children taken to the churches across the street for services instead. Seemed kind of twilight zoney really. But I had only about 10 rounds to my door. I survived ;)

The BEST was the last little one. Maybe about age 5 and dressed like the black Spiderman. Since it was an hour between the last kid and him I had a ton of candy still. I dumped almost a whole giant mixing bowl of candy in his bag and filled it up. Little guy damn near peed himself! He was just stammering oh oh oh... He could not even speak, the oh oh was way better than any thank you! I swear I could not see his face through the mask but his body language made me just see his eyes had to be about to pop out of his head LMAO. I totally made a little boys day and that just really made mine. I am in such a feel good mood and have not felt like this in so long. I love little kids, they just crack me up.
