Good Wednesday Morning!  Looks like I am the early bird again this morning so here goes!  Today I will...really get in 100 ounces of water (or my water w/a little bit cranberry juice or herbal tea), be mindful of my eating, go to yoga class and really give 120%, clean the kitchen in my old apartment, get the internet working at my new apartment, get some clothes hung up/put away, relax before 10:30 pm!  Yesterday I...get in all 100 ounces of water--only made it to 64 ounces , remember to take my calcium with lunch--yup but I forgot it at dinner--oops!, be mindful while eating--yes I stretched my lunch out through the entire 30 minutes, go grocery shopping for clean/whole foods to start cleansing diet tomorrow--yup it ended up being a bit more expensive than I thought but I got everything I need and stocked up on some new foods I will be using more often, check on transferring my prescription to the pharmacy close to my new place--everything is transferred and I am picking it up this evening, get my old apartment vaccuumed and possibley scrub the floor of the kitchen & bathroom--got the entire place vacuumed (even along the floorboards) and scrubbed the entire bathroom, get in all 3 meals and 1-2 snacks--got in all three meals, but only one snack, relax a little--not really I didn't actually sit down until almost 11 pm last night!

Happy hump day  :) Today I will: - take my vitamins and pills - DRINK!  WATER! - eat real food not just protein bars - Stay upbeat and happy through the stress Yesterday I: - walk my buns off!  a good pace and MUSIC!     I walked and figured out that 2.5 laps on the road is a mile so made it 2 miles.  Nothing overly exciting but considering I wouldn't make it even 1/8th of a mile 6 months ago, it's not bad! - drink more water than yesterday     did this - still not as much as I want but it gets better each day - vitamins!     got all vitamins and pills in - SMILE! and LAUGH! and keep an upbeat mood     This is just plain hard to do.  Some of the guys didn't know I was done Friday so had to go through the whole long speel of why I"m going to be gone.  I ended up crying at my desk and couldn't get away as I had the accountables there and couldn't just leave them.  I also was told I have until Thursday night to decide if I want to pursue this and fight it or if I will voluntarily resign...  I swore they would never break me but I feel fissures breaking out...  Thanks goodness I'm off to the therapist today and can throw some of this out. Could use prayers for clear thinking...

Lori~I am so sorry to hear that things are getting really difficult at work for you, I will keep you in my prayers.  Great job with the walking and vitamins.  You are doing very well for the amount of stress you are under right now.  I hope things improve soon.  Love & Hugs! Nicole

Thanks Nicole! I'm finding that going out and even just walking laps on the road lets me get away for a bit... I can get lost in the music and let my mind wander... just not too far  :) Still praying for some flash of insight from above.... *hugs*
