Thirtsty Thursday
Well, It's almost Friday...woohooo. I am hoping it's a thirsty Thursday in addition with trying to kick the drinking soda...mostly diet dew....I'm going to really try to push the crystal lite today. I haven't had a diet dew all week woohoo. Now to work in more exercise is the trick. I went to the foot Dr yesterday...they did xrays...he looked at them and walked into the room and said well, that foot of yours is quite interesting. I was like oh great!!! I have 2 extra tendons connecting my foot to my baby toe and he thinks that's probably where my pain is coming from. He gave me a prescription for an orthotic but ins won't cover it...which he suspected it wouldn't. He told me to just keep trying to find comfy shoes...Yeah right...been trying for months. Otherwise he said he can surgically remove them if it gets bad enough. Well, I'm in no hurry to do that yet. My appt took too long and Sadie missed her dance class woops. She was so into looking at my bones.....she kept asking me to take them out for her to see LOL. She also stepped onto the scale and proudly said...i weigh 36 hundred thousand pounds momma!!! I said well then I'm surely not getting on that scale LOL. She kept herself very entertained throughout the whole appt time. I also got my h1n1 shot.....we've had 2 people in my dept at work die this yr so I figured I better just get it and get it over with.
Today is more work...then we have church this evening....I'm debating on dropping DH and Sadie off and just coming home to relax instead of going. I'm struggling a bit mentally and could just use some down time. Other than that nothing is planned.
Hope you all have a great day!
I too am ready for the weekend. Next week will be a short work week for me (again) and I can't wait.
Michelle, I wish you luck with the fluids & exercise, I am pretty much doing the same thing. I tend to get really tired of always drinking crystal light though. My fix for that, I make myself decaf tea with splenda in it. I love the orange pekote/black pekote blend. As for crystal light, I find the Target brand is pretty tasty too & costs less. As for the shoe factor. My mother has wide feet & due to not wearing proper shoes she was having bunions, spurs, constant sciatic nerve issues and such. After being diagnosed with diabetes & reading up on the dangers with the feet she really started shopping for some better shoes. I will have to ask her the name of the store she goes to so I can pass it on to you. It is really expensive but so worth it to her. She doesn't have too many problems at all anymore. Of course she passed the wide feet on to me and I have a terrible time finding shoes, at least I am not at quite the spot she is in since losing my weight. Hope you get to get some time to yourself and ease the brain some.
Jaime, glad to hear things are well with you. Seems like you have been more upbeat lately and I am glad to see it.
Not much going on here tonight. We have the girlies, perhaps we can have a wii sport challenge. Hope you all have a great day!
Michelle....... Drop off your daughter & DH..... go home & get some down time, you DESERVE IT!!!
Court, thank you!!! I have been trying to swing my down side to the positive side!! I am feeling better.
Just plugging along here.... Just pushing thru, (no more days off at work, darn it!! Just the 5 days a week thing!!) now that the holidays are behind us, daylight-wise, we are gaining daylight, little by little, not really noticeable yet, but, I am trying to hold out for daylight!!! That always plays a roll in my mental health, some years it is worse than others.... Thinking POSITIVE here!!!
Have a GREAT day, ladies!!!!
