Hello good neighbors!

Okay, I don’t know why I always think that I’m some super-human and I can defy all powers of addiction and change all bad habits with the snap of my (freshly manicured) fingers, but – I can’t. One of these days I’ll learn to embrace the whole idea of ‘one step at a time’. I didn’t go back to the gym last night, or this morning for that matter. I went shopping last night to get my bathroom accessories and a few other things and then Branden needed me to bring something to him and Nora so by the time I got back to my apartment it was 9pm… and then I still had to hang/put away all of the stuff that I had bought! After that, I cleaned my kitchen, did some laundry and did some organizing and by the time I got to sleep it was almost 1am. Obviously, I wasn’t just sitting on my ass all night so I’m far from saying that I had a ‘lazy night’, but there was no formal exercise. This morning, I woke up and was completely exhausted and did not make it to the gym again. I’m regretting that decision now but it’s a little too late at this point… I would like to say that I am going to take Nora for a walk tonight but I have to go with my boss to a happy hour thing with a customer after work so it all depends on how long that lasts.

Dinner last night was non-existent… I was busy and forgot to eat then by the time I remembered to eat it was almost 11pm and I was exhausted so I didn’t bother.

I took the day off of work tomorrow and I’m getting my hair done then spending the rest of the day with my Nora! I’m excited! Not sure what we’re going to do yet, just depends on the weather.

I will be SO excited when my apartment is finally in order and the way I want it. It’s making it really difficult for me to stick to the schedule in mind (workout/meal plan-wise) when I look around and see so many things that need to be done/I want to do. Not to mention the fact that I’m spending way too much money! Ha!

Oh well… I’m just trying to stay positive and hopeful in the thought that things will soon settle down and I can get back to my normal priorities. J

Until tomorrow, friends…
