Strange Week

It was a different kind of week for me. At work, due to the US Thanksgiving, things were slow. I had plans to get a lot done but it didn't happen. It was more like a bit of downtime. At home though things were stressful. There was holiday decorations to tend to and I am nearing the end of my University music course, which has stressed me out. And it all started with a bad week on the scales. I did have improved eating habits this week so I am hoping that tomorrow's weigh in is better than last week. I guess I will find out in the morning!!!

Stay safe everyone.

Planning Cycle is Over

Well I think the busy period at work may finally be over. I know there will still be some work to be done but the bulk of it is completed. My fitness this week has been awful. I have skipped many of my scheduled workouts, which will show on the scale. As well, my eating has been horrible this week. I ate out a few times and for some reason every time I turned around there were brownies on the counter at home. I wish these temptations weren't even in the house but they are so I have to deal with them.

Christmas is only a few weeks away now so I will have to start thinking about that. I would prefer to just go away somewhere and skip it all together but the others in the family don't feel that way. I guess it will be Christmas as usual.

Short and sweet this week for my blog post!

Weddings

I went to a wedding this week for the first time in many years. It was done very well. The service was at a greenhouse chapel and I found that to be a good thing. It was very intimate yet informal. Some of the church services I have been at are just to formal for me. It was good to see most of the family as we don't get together very often. All of the kids that were once young are all grown up! I guess mine are in the same boat!

It made me think that it will not be too many years in the future when I will be attending one of my children's weddings. Scary thought, but true.

It was a bad week for eating. Mostly stress eating from work, but the wedding didn't help as well. My date with the scale will not be pretty in the morning.

Crazy Week!

It has just been a crazy week for me. A project I am leading at work is overdue and the pressure is amped up just a touch, lol. I have been working long hours, including weekends, and it is wearing me out. I need a vacation.

I did have a good birthday earlier this week though. I was taken out to dinner by the family and we had a good time. We also celebrated my daughter's birthday with a visit to her University and another dinner out. As you can imagine my eating has been erratic with the eating out schedule and the long work hours. Monday on the scale will not be a pretty sight.

I will have to refocus for next week. Look forward, not back right?
