Day 3 of reset number 250 (estimate resetting approx once a month at least for the last 20 years!) My neighbor came over to fix a heavy drawer in my kitchen under the oven. He tried a little over a week ago but I needed to replace some parts for metal tracks and plastic hinges. Last week he also worked on a sliding screen door that was impossible to open. Today I still needed to find a different length track. I told him I'd call him when I got home. Went to the hardware store in my town and they didn't have it so I texted my neighbor I was driving to Grass Valley to look at the hardware stores there (30 minutes away). Called him from the 2nd hardware store and told him no one had a bigger size so could we just use the size we have. Told him I was getting tacos from Jimboy's and did he want some. He said Sure. I owe him at least 2 meals out for all the stuff he's been fixing for me around the house. Long way to say I had 2 tacos and a large coke today but worked in to my daily calories today. Way over on carbs again though, but I wanted the coke! I did have to have a protein bar because I was too low on protein for the day. My neighbor has a 2nd home here and spends a few days to a week here a couple times a month. Bobby loves him, he loves company and my neighbor has been here maybe a dozen times. I bought a 6 pack of tacos but only ate two and gave him the rest. My neighbor, not Bobby.
So hopefully my CICO for today will be okay. Want to get back 100 or fewer carb grams a day.
Spent about an hour this morning weed wacking raking and pulling weeds,so much easier after the heavy rain on Saturday. Felt like good exercise because it tired me out.
Wild turkeys visit me while I work outside. I put sunflower seeds all over my bank near the pond for the birds and turkeys although the deer come running if they know the seeds are there. One of the bucks turns and looks at me when I say "hi Buck". He knows his name! One of the girl turkeys, a little hen has babies she brings to the bank around 4pm. First saw them Sunday and again yesterday. I went to ask my neighbor to please try to keep her cats inside as much as possible so these babies have a chance. Ever since she got 2 young cats about 2 or 3 years ago there haven't been chicks around my house. These cats are hunters!

I finally decided to step on the scale yesterday. It was worse than I expected. I consoled myself that it was after 2 mugs of coffee and half a a bagel so my usual first thing in the morning weight could be as much as 4 pounds lower. It wasn't. I weighed myself this morning and although 2 pounds lower than yesterday it is still 7 pounds higher than my posted weight. I know all the reasons why. I've been getting food at restaurants to bring home and don't make healthy choices. Especially because I wait until I'm really hungry before going out to get something. Anyway, the weight I saw on the scale yesterday motivated me enough to get the microwave out of the closet in spite of it being so heavy I could hardly get it to the kitchen. But it's there now and yesterday I had a Lean Cuisine and then later half a tuna sandwich. Will probably have the same thing today. In January I set a goal to to exceed 100 carbs grams a day. Yesterday it was nearly 170 even though calories were fine. It was the Lean Cuisine (over 50 grams), half a bagel and a slice of potato bread. I also had a honey crisp apple. Still, it was much better than the chicken strips I've several times and am now craving.
No one looked at my house over the weekend. I was happy about that on Saturday when it was pouring rain all day, was windy and very cold for May. Then yesterday there was a garage sale at many houses so maybe that kept people away. I'm not expecting any one this week based on the last 2 weeks.

I talked to my realtor today. She has a partner she works with who seems really to be her assistant. That's who contacts me about showings and everything else and who tried to figure out why my house doesn't show up in my neighborhood on realtor.com. She found out why but it seems to be something that is unfixable. Anyway, I told my agent I was concerned because I am getting so few showings, also I wondered if the lower commission might mean fewer agents will show it. And other issues. She said the commission is not an issue, almost everyone is doing lower commissions now, 5%. And she has 6 or 7 other listings (all showing up correctly in realtor.com!) and no one is getting any showings right now. She said it is unusual because this is usually the best time of year for buying and selking a house. But mortgage rates are still high and getting home owner's insurance is very difficult and expensive. State Farm and another company, maybe Allstate won't write new policies. Felt a little better, that it's not just my house
I'm getting take out everyday so I don't have to worry about cleaning the stove or kitchen. Not a good thing, I know. I'm scared to step on the scale. But at least I am not snacking much. But I discovered chicken strips for the first time and had them 3 times last week! Now I'm tired of them. Got a foot long sandwich at Subway today, half for tomorrow. I'm going to ask my neighbor, who is gone for a week,to help me move my microwave from a closet to the kitchen counter. I had moved it before pictures were taken of my house. Now I want it back! I have a dozen Lean Cuisines in the garage freezer. Maybe not the best choice, but easy and better than chicken strips and meatball sandwiches.
Bobby went to the groomer yesterday and looks just beautiful! No one would call him Scruffy today

Still no offers on my house. Tomorrow will be 2 weeks since it was listed. No one has been to look at it since Sunday but there are 2 appointments this afternoon. One really good thing about the house being up for sale is that it is clean all the time. It takes about an hour every morning to get it ready. I use a Bona mop with a pad for pet hair twice a day. Can't believe all the cat hair it picks up that I can't even see. I have to dry the shower after using it and I have only used the stove once or twice because it is so hard to clean. My eating hasn't been good because I am picking up meals too often. I ordered a pizza which was good for 3 days of meals. I also ordered spaghetti one and the best part of that meal was the garlic bread! Not sure what I will eat today. So far, just 2 cups of coffee. I'll probably get something to eat this afternoon while my house is being shown. Bobby is allowed on the patio at the restaurant where I got the spaghetti.

I am hating having my house up for sale! It was listed on Sunday and I left for Oregon the same day. Was hoping to get an offer (full price and all cash!) by the time i got home. That didn't happen. Bobby stayed at my sister's house and the cats stayed at home with the pet sitter coming in twice a day to feed them, scoop the litter box, give Marco his insulin shots and then clean the food plates. She even agreed to use the Bona mop to pick up cat hair, litter, etc. She texted me that one of the cats seemed stressed out and wasn't eating. The next day he was better and she sent me a picture of him eating. I've been home for one day and don't know how to deal with this. I spent about 2 hours this morning getting the house ready to show - scooping litter boxes, mopping the floors, putting all the blinds up or open so the house is light and bright, putting a quilt and pillow shams on the bed, drying the whole shower after using it, etc. I don't want to cook because the stove is so hard to clean. I was hungry around noon so looked at the menu at a pizza place close to home. Lots of good stuff to choose from, sandwiches, spaghetti, etc. I finally just made a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I did some weed whacking and then used the leaf blower on the garage floor just to keep a little busy. My realtor told me about 20 agents came through on the broker tour and there have been about 7 showings. Can't believe the 7 people didn't fall in love with the house! Hopefully it will get shown over the weekend but I am not enjoying the process at all. It wouldn't be too bad if I didn't have Bobby. I could just go somewhere for the day like the casino, Winco, meet friends for breakfast or lunch. But he has to go with me which is hard for several hours a day.
