The irony was not lost on me that as I try to break my habit of going to the refrigerator today I had to spend several frustrating hours in front of it. Three years ago, the refrigerator was our first purchase for the house. It's a really nice white frig. We paid extra for the floating glass front because we just love that modern look. Today, a glass jar of Polaner jelly fell out of the door and hit the bottom freezer door shattering not the $2 jar but the floating glass on the outside of the freezer door. Thankfully, no one was injured. On this beautiful warm sunny day, I had to spend hours cleaning it up and I am still not done. My fingertips are all scratched up and I'm exhausted from yelling at my children to put shoes on when entering the kitchen. On the upside, it looks fine without the glass on bottom so I think we won't have to replace it. On the downside, its like $500 to replace it!
I did go to the gym today. The kids had classes and then went to babysitting. I walked on the weightloss setting (which I think just means big incline) and did the weights. It was just an OK workout, I was so annoyed about the refrigerator.
Saturday, I had a pleasant scale reading in the bathroom so completely unofficial. The scale said 154.6 which is fantastic because its a healthy BMI!! That's a first and I am thrilled with that. Unfortunately we did a ton of visiting over the weekend (although it was fortunate to see everyone). I ate not too bad on Saturday and then terrible on Sunday. Sunday after lunch at Wendy's we had company and ordered Chinese food in. I ate the leftovers today so I'm sure just by the amount of salt I probably ingested that the scale will not be kind to me. On the bright side, my bathroom scale is not turning on possibly out of fear that I will throw it out the window but more likely it needs a battery. I feel nauseous thinking about how poorly I've eaten the last few days.
I pride myself on being rather slow to anger and frustration but today was just full of it. In addition to the refrigerator debacle, I took my son who would be happy to wear the same thing everyday out shopping for socks. We did come home with socks and a couple of new shirts but the whole experience felt rushed and unpleasant since I had to beg him to look at everything and choose something, anything.
Nothing is going on with mom camp. One mom told me she was a definite but she didn't put it on the e-vite so it still just looks very negative.
New house project is getting a new bathroom. Very excited but have not had time to research anything. Still feeling like I need an outlet to focus on some sort of more daily goal but maybe what I need is to chill out and not feel so rushed all the time.
