Saturday:
Up at 7am...wanted to read the newspapers...4 of them.WE don't normally get 2 newspapers, one of them is trying to sell us their paper...one month free, they just pile up. (I walked outside in my jammies to pick 2 of them up)That took me 3 1/2 hours to read them and 3 cups of coffee later. Got dressed folded a load of clothes and off to an early lunch. a small bowl of chicken and sausage gumbo and a bowl of cabbage with sauce that I like, a remulaude. Ran by the eye glass place to have new nose pieces put on...mine had cracked! and they are only 6 months old! Stopped by the bank to see if I could use my debit card to pay my credit card bill. She explained that my bank would call that a cash advance and would charge me for that, so I will wait and just take in a check this week.
Just enough time to go to the aveda beauty school to get my hair colored for a one oclock appointment.
My hair used to be red for many years then I went dark brown, which is starting to look black so my friends and clients tell me. So I decided I wanted to lighten it up and add some violet to it. So the instructor helped the student come up with a formula and when it was all said and done.... my hair looks red. I asked about that? She said that violet is red and blue, my hair picked up the red more.
I like it!
I then went to the gym and walked on the tred mill another 5 K...3.2 miles in 55 minutes. I have not been bringing a gym bag for these walks just come home after wards and shower if I need to. There is a little locker that I can lock up my purse.
Today I wanted to shower quickly and not mess up my hair. So I just stripped and took a quick shower and got redressed in lickitty split time.
It was 5pm and I was feeling good...thinking about Jeff, he was going fishing with a friend. I was feeling hungry and craving a cider and thought that I might go home and walk 2 blocks down the street to our local pub(Brewskis) for a couple of ciders. But I had called my sweetie to see if he had gotten off with his friend. He usually leaves me a little note, he did not so I complained a little when I rang him on his cell phone.
I told him I might go down to brewskis for a while. He said that was fine.
I decided to have the left over veggie beef soup before going....
But the more I thought about it the more I decided to not go. I am doing really well on this diet and drinking doesn't fit into the equation. I ended up making myself a big smoothie, kale, pineapple, blueberries, protein powder and maca powder, it took along time to blend up because the pineapple was in big frozen chunks, finally it got all blended and it was very good and filling. I am very full and satisfied.
Bar averted!
yeah!
It is dark already and not even 7:30. wow!
