Monday will go down in history as day two of outrageous nighttime snacking adventures in Bellawood. Tuesday will be remembered for the day I climb back on the wagon, yes, indeed.
I agree, the emotions linked to the SD lie beneath it all as the shenanigans continued on throughout yesterday but I begin today reminding myself while they are nothing new my reaction toward them is, or has been, and needs to be resumed. Yes indeed. No one can make me eat badly but myself.
The Photography club meeting last night was nice. Only one hoity toity; the rest of the group seemed to be just genuine folk like me. I'd been apprehensive they would be hardcore experts all chattering in a foreign techno jargon and bragging they developed their own film in a dark room. But, nope, as 'Walmart' and 'Walgreens' were suggested for processing of their digital photos I exhaled and relaxed. I'm looking forward to going next month and color me thrilled as the category is animals; I believe my hummingbirds, butterflies and honeybee's qualify, don't you?
The new wireless printer came in this morning and will be going right back out this evening; my SIL was here and suggested her printer brand so that'll be my next attempt.
I know I commented on it but the window washer didn't upset me that much; I deemed him mindless and went on about my day after mentioning him in my journal. But that did make me reflect on the age old question 'just how much weight have you lost?'
Which came first? The chicken salad or the egg sized ego? Why is the number important? Is that what makes us so crazy about the scale and lets it drive our days and manage our moods? Do you suppose if people instead commented 'you look as if you've lost weight, are you feeling ok?' we'd not grow nauseas every time the scale moved north?
Maybe they are related - the window washer and the weigh-in watchers. I recall a time when asking a woman her age was considered rude. I have to think asking for a weight tally would have been treated the same during that era. Has reality TV and the internet completely wiped out civility and manners?
So to borrow from Bren today.. that's my 2 cent's worth. Penny for your thoughts?
