I slept in this morning. Of course, I stayed up until after three this morning, so that helped with the sleeping-in part. Plus, it was a good sleep. No weird dreams, no get-up-and-pee trips, no nothings - how about that? - I can definitely live with sleeps like that! After I woke up, I started a new book before getting up, which made me not get up until almost noon.
I played Happy Homemaker, doing laundry and dishes. I wasn't really feeling super good, but just kept plodding along, getting things done. I got all the clothes we got for Christmas rinsed out, so we can start wearing them. I also did a load of reds and a load of jeans, as well as getting the weekend dishes all done. I played on the pute between letting loads of dishes soak, as usual. I knew I needed to eat, but didn't really feel like eating - you know what I mean? - so finally, I ate a banana. I did feel a bit better after that, so I also ate a nut bar, thinking maybe the reason I wasn't feeling so good was the start of a sugar low. That didn't really make much sense (I've gone longer without eating) but anything is possible, I suppose. I did feel better, but not much, but I got those bits of housework done and that's good enough for me. Of course, the clothes are still in baskets, but that's a job for another day. As always.
After Ron got home, he did his Wii - he has to do his in the evenings, which is really not a good time to weigh yourself, but he can't do it before he goes to work! - and he's lost a little bit more weight. He's hasn't caught back up to his before-Christmas weight, but he's getting there. He had one of his frozen Chinese things for his supper, and I finally decided to eat the last Hungry Man turkey dinner out in the freezer and get it out of there. I didn't eat the dessert that was in it (a cranberry something - yuck) and I didn't eat the dressing included (stale bread - yuck) and I didn't eat the carrots in the mixed veggies (I picked them out and added a dollop of butter, as a matter of fact), so the calorie count was all skewed, but I just claimed it as it was. My calorie count was gonna be messed up anyway because of the few pieces of Christmas candy I nibbled on throughout the afternoon and into the evening.
I discovered that the Charlie Brown and Rudolph New Year's shows were on tonight, so I watched them, because my football - Monday Night Football - is now over. Booooo. Happens every year around this time. I don't know what I'll do next week. Withdrawal, maybe.
I have to get up in the morning and meet someone at 9am. I haven't had to do that in a long time. It will do me good, I guess. Ha ha. Then I get to run down to the Wals - Walgreens and WalMart. Whooo. What great fun. But it's something that needs done, so I will do it. I will pick up my friend Bert, so she can do some shopping, also. She is hopeful that her car will be done by the end of the week, but I don't know, what with the holidays and all. I don't mind helping her out - it's practically on the way, I just have to remember to turn down her road!
When I put "all" my food into MFP, of course I was way short on calories - over 900! - and got hollered at, but I knew I was really a lot closer, or maybe over, because of the Christmas candy. Nah, not over, not today. I didn't have that much today - there's not that much left!
Today is definitely getting five stars for food! Zilch-o on exercise, cause I sure didn't feel like moving, not one little bit, and only puttered. I got done what I was aiming on doing, and that was that.
I had forgotten to file my FINAL unemployment claim while on the pute last night (I am supposed to file on Sundays), so I did that first thing this morning. My final claim. I don't know what will happen now, but it will happen in the new year, and that's a whole new ball game, right? A clean slate. We shall see.
Good night, dear friends, and if you go out and about for New Year's Eve, be happy and safe and make wise decisions. Hopefully, there will be a DD in or for your party, or you have plans to stay overnight somewhere, because to party with no worries is to party happily! Ron and I will be safe at home, as always, so don't think about us, and enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!
Love to all. Consider yourself kissed at midnight.
