madaboutmoose's Journal, 22 January 2013

This counts again as "tomorrow's" journal. One less thing for me to do in the morning! So let's pretend it is already Wednesday.

Had a relatively quiet day at work. One cancellation, one home visit. Took my work home so I got to see DH before he left for work. Working on pulling together some handouts for the training in February. I have 3 hours for social-emotional development assessment of infants and toddlers and another 3 hours to focus on reflective practice. I hope it is received well. I'm looking forward to it, I think! Lol.

Our new batteries are awesome! I keep checking our inverter to see if I need to turn on the generator. But lo and behold these batteries actually hold a charge! So nice.

Did well with eating and juicing today. The plan is to stay focused this week. Juice, reasonable meals, no mindless snacking. I feel so much better when I stay clear.

Grateful.

Sparkling mineral water.
Homemade soup.
New batteries (sorry I keep talking about them but I'm so happy to have them!)

Well dang. I had hoped to get to bed early and finish this entry but my daughter called. An hour later. Nothing dramatic. Just the lessons of life that she has tried desperately to avoid. Makes me tired talking to her. Don't get me wrong. I love her. It's just frustrating for me. She listens more now than when she was drinking but still has a long ways to go. Being a parent isn't always enjoyable! LOL!

So off to bed I go. I'll check in tomorrow! Night!

Hope you aren't too tired this morning. You have so much patience with your daughter. It's not easy, dearheart, but you are doing your best and still there for her. Hope your Wednesday is awesome. Glad you got some time with DH last night. Oh, and glad the new batteries are working well :)

I think I'm retaining water. My rings are tight. I feel bloated. My head is fuzzy. I couldn't figure why the water wasn't pumping. Thought oh dear it froze. Nope. I had unplugged the well pump! There's no where to go but up from here! So breathe Moose, breathe. It's just one of those days!

Hi Carol!! Glad all is well and that the batteries are doing their job. Sounds like you really love juicing. Tell me with juicing do you eat normally as well?

Hey Girlie, its Thursday and hope you got your brainpower back today. Perhaps it's hormones, or the weather, or just - who knows - we are women, here our bodies screw us over some days - lol. Sorry about the weight gain and all the other little disasters yesterday but so glad your water didn't freeze. Today is a new day, hope its awesome.
