Accountability - Wednesday

I had a lovely call from a great aunt of my husband's that I met at the Nelson family reunion in 2003 in Iowa! The dear woman is 87 years old and found a slip of paper with my phone number on it and called me asking for the booklet from the reunion. She said she didn't get one but I'm sure she did..I'll just send her another one..It was great to speak to her though...it brought back all sorts of lovely memories of the reunion and the people that I met there..

When I got home my little dog was not on the porch waiting for me..Of course I worry too much and so my dinner was too light...I couldn't eat when I was worried..I walked all over the near neighborhood and no Peppy (he's a black and white Lhaso Apsa and very cute) and I'm a nervous fur momma..I hate it when I don't know where they are and the neighbor hinted that she thought he might not be feeling well. Around here...that's not good. You know. I let the whole thing escalate out of my mind! When the next door neighbor came home and found him locked in his house..duh! He came home..So I was suddenly and instantly hungry again!

7:45 pm 2 pc sugar free mint patties, 1 sugar free oatmeal cookie with 1 Tablespoon reduced fat peanut butter..I stopped at one but fixed two..I may have to have the second one tomorrow evening. I believe I stopped before I got to feeling bad...I think I can deal with some more water..probably..I've been sleeping with cold water next to the bed and drinking through the night too..

So at least I got my walking in..I'd say about two miles or so, in the dark, in my jammies and jacket with slippers and a stocking cap (because, of course, my hair was wet from taking a shower..)

I wish I wasn't so emotionally attached to my fur babies..but if I wasn't as attached to them as I am, I shouldn't have them..

Tomorrow is Friday Eve and I'm ready..I realized this afternoon that Monday is a holiday for us..Woo Hoo..three day weekend..Not that I can afford to do anythingb ut hey..I can always find something to do..maybe walk the silly little Lhasa..LOL..

How did you do?

So glad you found the puppy! Coincidentally I had a similiar experience with my cat....she got locked in the garage over nite last nite LOL  DH went to get something from the freezer and she came sauntering out of behind our little trailor where there is a chair LOL  She 'told' me all about the whole while I was getting ready for work :-(

Today was pretty good...I hope I'm doing this right!!

Great list..mostly good carbs and awesome protein...Got enough wate/fluids..you're perfect..

Our cat climbed into our daughter's moving van on the way from here to Seattle..That year, he was the only family member who got a vacation! Our daughter drove down from Seattle to Portland to meet a friend who was coming down near here and so Lucas got a 2 day truck ride up and a 12 hour truck ride back a week later..

Around here, small animals like little dogs and cats can be coyote bait. I always worry too much..

How nice to speak with your Aunt and all the memories it brought you! That Peppy is kind of a rascal isn't he? Our black lab was a rescue dog. We have had her almost nine years and she has been the best dog. She will not leave the yard front or back. If my husband leaves the gate open she juststays in the back unless we call her out. We joke Rosie is not taking any chances of being a stray ever again.

was home all day except a trip to the pediatrician and pharmacy. DD stayed home because it snowed but she also had a sore throat. Turns out she had strep! Started her antibiotic last night and she is already feeling better this morning! 
Missed some of my vits, not enough water, and no exercise! Today is a do over!

Peppy is a *ladies man* and loves the lady who lives next (she gives him cookies, that helps)..that's the first place I checked. Now that the other neighbor has his German girlfriend living with him, he likes his german shepherd to sleep in the house with her while he's at work at night. That german shepherd is Peppy's real girl friend...so he wants to be with her and snuck in their house..when Lucy (the shepherd) went outside, he must have been sleeping and got left in the house...LOL. That's what happens when you have a group of *community* dogs, I guess..

We don't have any fences to speak of...lots of BLM land all around and no pavement or fast drivers for over a mile..they are usually good.

Strep throat is nasty stuff. My whole childhood I was on codine for the cough and throat...barely remember it at all! LOL.

Have a good do-over day. Keep up the good work. See ya.

I had a good day yesterday.  I see I forgot to record the whole day but I know I did OK.
I was rewarded with one pound less this morning!
