Thursday ... almost Friday!! Another decent eating and exercise day yesterday. Weight is still up from last weigh-in here ... at 182.6 this morning. No worries though ... as I continually remind myself my scale is a tool and a helpful one at that!! It doesn't really make sense if I look at my diet calendar which reflects a deficit everyday ... who can make sense of it??? What I do know is that I am doing what I need to do and the scale fluctuates for a variety of reasons. Staying at the blue line and/or getting below it often seems impossible but I remind myself to simply stay with the process ... live, be kind to myself, be honest and continue to place one foot in front of the other ...
So today I am going to focus on getting together my paperwork to submit for my Infant Mental Health Endorsement portfolio. I've been dragging my feet ... not wanting to sort through all my past continuing education ... hating to fill out paperwork, resisting jumping through hoops!! LOL!! Today I have time. Today I will do it. Tomorrow will be 'on the road' for a couple of visits up north and then an evening out with one of my girlfriend's ... ladies night!! So today is a good day to focus.
I am continually grateful for ...
1. the friends I have made and continue to make through this site.
2. my health.
3. the blessing of finding someone to share my life with and how our love has grown through the years.
4. my mother who is having a fantastic time with her sister in California.
5. my job ... while I detest the paperwork I am so fortunate in so many ways to have a job where I get paid to swing at the park, hang out with parents, and play with babies and toddlers!!!
So, together we travel on ... winding down the paths that are underneath our feet. Being ever mindful of how powerful being kind to ourselves can be. Continually being mindful of the importance of being honest with ourselves about what we put into our bodies and how we move our bodies throughout the day. Reminding ourselves that this journey is an ongoing process, a natural part of life, and that we will never be 'done' and that is a good thing!! Being content with where we are while continuing to work towards our goals ... maintaining that balance. Wow ... it is a full time job!!! LOL!!! Have a good day ... tomorrow is FRIDAY!!! I can hardly wait!!

I've just had a few of those days, going up and stagnating even though I was doing the right things. I agree, we have to use the scale as a tool, and as long as we know we have done the right things we can't let it sway us. Doesn't mean we can't be annoyed by it though, right? lol

If you could just get 180 to be your ceiling, I'm almost sure that you wouldn't pay so much attention to the scale. Good luck getting the paperwork in order and I hope you have a great day moose!

I envy you for your job, lol. Aside from the paperwork of course (definitely not a lover of paperwork!). I have to say reading your journals are so calming & always makes me stop to think about things I can appreciate in my life despite the situation I'm in. So grateful for that. Sounds like tomorrow is going to be a fun day & evening. I hope you enjoy yourself! = )

Info ... I KNOW!!! If only!!! I suppose it will happen eventually ... in its own sweet time!!! At least I pay 'less' attention to the scale and am less spastic about the fluctuations!! Shay ... thanks ... I'm glad you enjoy the journals ... writing them is a part of my own therapy ... it helps me to focus and remember what is truly important to me!!

You know this is not a short term thing, this is our lives. And we have to live our lives having fun - not trapped in a bubble. So sometimes we gain a bit of weight from having fun - we know it will be gone soon enough. Have a good one Moosie and don't work to hard!!!

I hate filling out paperwork too. Just way too much of it. An evening out with one of your girlfriends sounds like Margarita time to me. lol I understnd how you feel about the fluctuations. It's hard to ignore that number on the scale no matter how hard we try. As I type this I was looking forward to the weekend. I was almost finished writing my comments and my boss called me in her office. Now it looks like I will be working Sunday in the morning. Not really looking forward to it, but what you going to do. I will not get paid cash for it ...just lieu time which to me is just as good. Always something isn't it. Well I guess I won't be talking to you Sunday morning but maybe I can catch you on Saturday. Thanks for being concerned about me.

Kinda off topic, but I've been meaning to say for a while I really love your journal - particularly the gratitude section since I think that's such a great thing to do. :)
