Grumpy

Woke up today when my daughter tapped my shoulder to tell me she had had a little accident....in our bed!! YUCK! This was at 6am so you can imagine how happy I was to get up and clean up- oh well, accidents happen. it's funny- I was praying yesterday telling God I was feeling kind of useless- that I needed to feel needed....I think he is a joker cuz I was certainly "needed" today. I have done pretty good this week so far. I notice if I drink two shakes a day- I need to include some snacks between to keep me from going nuts and hanging out in front of the pantry. (Again this is due to my need to physically chew something??? Isn't there some Freudian thing with that behavior?) I am trying to do a protein with a carb. Last night I was dying for something sweet...I started to walk to the pantry and stopped- I caught a glimpse of my little sticky that says "what do you want to look like in two weeks?" (I answered that with..."I just want to look better, to see improvements!") I was having a sweet fit so, I just grabbed an orange and ate that instead- then I left the kitchen. I was proud of myself for passing on the cookies. Alex and I picked strawberries at the local berry farm yesterday and I found a recipe for strawberry bread in my grandmother's church cookbook- I can't wait to whip it up and see how it is. Of course- I will eat one slice and WALK AWAY! I also need to make banana nut bread to use up the really ripe banana's so I think I will take a loaf to the neighbors. Especially since he is fixing something for me. Anyway- I'm grumpy because I got up too early but I am feeling on track and I am going to work really hard at not letting my mood go further south- turn that frown upside down right?
