Accountability = Monday

The pain in my shoulder and the holidays are making me really depressed..This being the first Christmas without my dad and with the shoulder pain, I'm easily in tears at any time and today was several of those times. But then I search for frozen shoulder joint on line and everyone says it's probably the most painful recovery cuz you have to do it yourself by working trhough the pain..damn it..and it does hurt!

My eats today:

Coffee

Coffee (with my homemade sugar free cocoa mix)

Breakfast: 1/4 serving waffle, 1/2 apple, 1/2 sugar free pancake syrup

no espresso today! 24 oz warm herb tea as I drove in to the physical therapist appointment at 9 am..

Afterwards, I went to Walmart to see if I could find a few more things for Christmas..I made the cutest little piggy bank for my son-in-law..he wants to save up for a new tattoo so I painted a tiny piggy with little tattoos and put "TAT FUND" under the piggies chin..then I stuffed $20 into him..

24 oz drink mix with no ice but cold, GV Energy Peach Mango

Lunch: It was waiting for me when I got home..dear hubby made me a hamburger on a sandwich thin. I rested alittle and then got to work on some baking. I made a batch of fudge and made chocolate chip bread..I'm working up to some sweet breads and such- oh, and cookies

Depression is keeping me from jumping whole heartedly into baking and getting ready for Christmas and that's not like me..

24 oz herb tea with splenda

Dinner: 4 wedge french fried potatoes, 1 cup really meaty chili con carne and 1/2 oz colby cheese

Maybe I'll have dessert but I don't think so. shower and bedtime..and ice my shoulder again.

Well, not great. Not bad but not great either..

How did you do? 

What is going on with that shoulder? It seems like you take one step forward and two steps back. I think the first holiday season without our parent(s) is the hardest, but then it gets a bit easier after that. Both of mine were gone before I had DD, so that first Christmas that I had her was hard, but it went fast, I was working full time, going to school part time and had a almost 7 month old baby. I had a better day at work, I almost did not come back after Friday!

1000-eggbeater omelette, w bacon, mozarella and veggies

Some days are good and then I sleep wrong..seriously, I can't figure out how exactly to sleep right! Or I reach too far one day and I'm sore for a while. After PT, I'm usually pretty sore. The inflammation seems to be under control with the Turmeric. I go back to the Osteopedic doctor on the 28th..

I lost my mom on Thanksgiving 1974 and the next few years, something horrible always happened during that time..dog hit by a car, different things. It gave me a depressed outlook for the whole season until it was a while before nothing bad happened. So losing my dad this year, even though it was in Spring, this holiday doesn't feel the same. Our daughter is also going through marital problems. She was served with divorce papers so...yeah, this season is sucky.

What I can say is that 2012 will be much better..

You did great..I figure baking (standing and such) is okay exercise..at least it's not parking my carcus on the couch watching television! Keep up the good work. See ya.
