Thursday started off again not feeling well. I feel better now ... just tired and stressed. Gee ... I wonder why?

Another busy day ahead and just for extra fun the gas cap light and engine light on my car are lit. So, somehow I have to figure out how to call the dealership and find the time to take the car in and see what the problem is. I've already followed the instruction in the manual and it isn't fixed. Drat. My elliptical was not working right this morning either. Maybe nothing in my life, even the mechanical things are "feeling good."

Weight was down to 209.2 this morning. I have no idea why it seems to be stuck going up and down. I know I just need to stay the course and not fret about it. There is no "magic bullet" and I don't really have time to fret so there you have it. I had hopes of being under 200 by the 1st of September but it doesn't look like that is going to happen. Another drat.

Still I should be grateful ...

1. making baby steps in bulding a little "side" business
2. my mom is having a blast with her sister
3. my kids are grown and I can't get pregnant
4. tomorrow is Friday (thank the good Lord above!!!)
5. even though I get frustrated with the financial aspects of my job I do still have a job with health insurance, vacation and sick pay, and a pension plan ... and I do love what I do.

So ... kindness. Kindness and being in the moment. Patience. Positive thoughts. Remembering to breathe. I just feel so rushed and hectic all of the time and impatient!!!
