Better Day

Woke up feeling much better this morning.  So grateful for that!

Before I left the house, I was able to do a load of laundry and change the sheets on one of the beds.  Also did some dishes and made iced tea for Jay.  Not bad for a short morning.

Came home to make Jay's bed and clean out my closet. 

The closet was due to having taken Jay's Kindle as consequences.  I have a tendency to hide things in places that make sense at the time. (It's genetic.  Thanks, Mommom!)  :)  Those hiding places sure don't make a bit of sense when I'm looking for whatever is hidden. 

I thought I had put it in my closet.  But, I could not find it for anything, which necessitated unloading everything.  Still couldn't find the darned thing! Looked all over the house.  Still nothing! 

The only thing I didn't bother with was the shoe boxes.  There are a bunch of shoe boxes, as I love shoes!

Guess where the Kindle was hidden?  Yep!  Among the shoe boxes.  LOL! 

As I type, it is being charged.  Jay has no idea.  He had tennis practice, right after school.  Then, onto Jazz band practice.  So, he hasn't been home yet.  He will be thrilled to have his Kindle back.

Also, I have a confession to make.  I wasn't quite sure I was ready to put this information out there.  However, owning it will motivate me.  Today was my weigh in.  My weight has ballooned up to 197.4.  *sigh*  That's what happens after I've spent so much time during the last 2 years being a lump. 

I own the fact that I allowed myself to pack on the weight.  While I didn't have any control over my lack of activity (I moved as much as I could, when I could.), I did have control over what I ate.  My food choices left much to be desired.  Sadly, I fell into the trap of eating things that were enjoyable, because that was all I was enjoying at the time. 

So there you have it.  A better day.  Active to my satisfaction and an embarrassing confession. 

Until tomorrow.
