abbadabba's Journal, 12 September 2009

So, I have a new project, not a new job - I move around all the time but I work for the state so it's still the same job. A couple of more years, I think I will retire!

Anyway, I went to a retreat today and ate lots of salty food, which was not that tasty. The pie was excellent though - the camp is run by Baptists, are they good bakers or was that a coincidence? The crust was to die for! I swear it had lard in it, it was so flaky and meaty tasting at the same time!

The vegetarianism is not working. I just haven't felt strong enough to skip meat when it is available. Like, I had broccoli for breakfast, but I didn't have anything else available that didn't need to be cooked. But for lunch I had meatballs and for dinner I had chicken - someone else cooked it so it was hard to resist! I was at the retreat with my daughter's chorale group.

I am still under stress. My brother has not shown up - I already gave him some money! My husband is moving out - but not for another month. Talk about strained living. Oh, and my older daughter hit a pothole with her car, going 70 mph in the rain, skidded across a highway and hit the concrete barrier, scraping up the whole side of our spare/kid car. Plus it is raining.

Weigh in is tomorrow morning, and I will do that but I am not optimistic!

My whole entry is one big complaint - sorry but that's where I am today!

Ouch! Your week sounds pretty bad all right. The good thing is your daughter's not hurt and the car can get fixed. Maybe hubby moving out might bring some added peace!?!!? Hang in there Abba. Good luck with your new job.

Just complain away! We all need a sounding board sometimes! It is good that your daughter is alright. Hopefully this month will go fast for you!

I'm just trying to get over the fact that you had brocolli for breakfast!!! What is that about?? No toast in the house???? LOL Sorry to hear about your daughters accident - at least she came out unharmed.

I'm with Cathy go ahead and vent. I was lazy and had to eat veggies for breakfast too lol but Abba, I'll make the same offer that I made to Shia34 and that is if the only thing around to eat is something with meat, then eat it. Just call it free day or what they call in golf a mulligan lol. I'm only doing meatless til Nov. 12 to see what kind of willpower I have and will and to see what positive and/or negative effects this will have on my body and diet so when you're ready hop back on to the meatless wagan please ;)

lol, mulligan made me laugh out loud! Ok, I am on a shopping strike, but if I am going to be vegetarian I have to get some food in here - like MomofTwoGirls noticed, I don't even have bread in the house! I mean a PB&J sandwich is always a good filler, but I only have the peanut butter and no jelly or bread, it's that bad here! OK - maybe November 12 is a good target date because I will be off that long-distance job by then too, so at least I can have something else to focus on being a vegetarian!

Glad to hear your daughter was not hurt. Hope that the stress levels will go down for you soon. Hubby leaving is hard and him being there during the process can not be easy. {{{hugs}}}
