Wow it has been a super crazy wacko few weeks here and I am glad to say i think things are finally getting to a form of "normal".  This will be my last post as a thirty-something, tomorrow i turn forty.  Actually looking forward to it.  I am at the lowest weight I have been in years and after taking a week or two off the dieting this week I have been an angel.  Even with my biggest supporter and co-dieter out of town for the week still staying the course.  Now I will admit all day I kept thinking of where I could go out to celebrate but it occured to me with these changes I am making how do I want to begin my forties.  So the plan is to get up and have my usual healthy breakfast and go for morning workout.  Life is simply a series of choices ,door A or door B.  and I really want to enjoy every minute of this journey and it is tempting to say oh it's my birthday I can cut myself a little slack and enjoy myself but thats the point.  A meal of greasy buttery fattening food is not as enjoyable as it once was.  A couple of days ago I gave myself a free pass and was ready to have some warm salty Mcdonalds fries and  a burger for lunch but when lunch time rolled around I ended up buying a Lean Cuisine and an orange for lunch.  Door A or Door B.  My inventory at work went well and my yearly evaluation went very well with a much needed raise to follow.  It is up to me how I continue this upward climb.  So I am feeling very Zen lately.  The living situation is even improving with one person leaving the house to get a place of her own.  It is funny how easy it is to tolerate someones quirks when you know you will not be dealing with them for too much longer.  I say if forty is the new thirty and thirty is the new twenty then I am turning 20 tomorrow.  My moment of humor I have to laugh at myself this time...last night after working almost 11 hours I was soooo tired and when I get that tired I get a little LOOPY so I am in bed with the hubby and he was watching the final game of Stanley Cup and they were saying names of people attending the game.  According to hubby I was almost asleep when they said David Beckam and I responded with," David Beckam mmm YUM.  Needless to say I have NO recollection of this and when I was thumped in the head afterwards I had no idea what I had said.  GNite All
