It was a light day at work. was supposed to see 4 clients but ended up seeing only 2 but was happy about that because it allowed me to see my friend Doris. She had a lot going on in her life so I was glad that I called. She is seriously going to leave her husband. They are living separate lives in the same house, she is not cooking for him nor doing his laundry. She just needs to figure out where to go live, she doesn't want to stay here. She has put up with so much abuse it is not funny. I believe she is 72 years old. She says I am the only person she can talk to about important stuff. She does see a psychologist once a month. I told her she needed to see her more often.
Another worry is that her mother just got diagnosed with uterine cancer, they are doing a pet scan next week to see if it has spread. She is 90 years old and refuses to have surgery.
Unfortunately, Doris has a strained relationship with almost all of her family.
It was good to talk with her, am glad that I can be a support person to her.

I had a grilled chicken salad from mcdonalds for lunch.
saw another client and came back home. Decided we needed some salad makings and diet salad dressings.I cooked up some left overs(alfredo pasta and macaroni and cheese) with squash spiral noodles and mushrooms and a bit of pesto.
It turned out very good but was very fattening.I didn't eat that much maybe a cup.
I have no idea how many calories was in that.
After dinner we went to art walk downtown. went to the main gallery and they were having a performance art with 15 people all dressed differently and eccentrically. They kind of did a fashion show. It was odd really.
We walked thru the Acadiana center for the arts, and went thru the vault...the building used to be a bank. They had interesting quilts that I love.
One of the things that I bought at the store, is a box of 40calorie fudge bars. yum I had one then had a 100 calorie bag of pop corn, hubby had some of mine.
I had a light lunch a very heavy dinner and then some snacks which were reasonable.
And this is the 4th night not drinking., so that is good.
My back is sore again, just walking downtown in the heat was tiring and my back ached, then my foot started hurting me. I need new shoes. I ordered some new boat shoes but they came in today and were too big.
Now I have to return them, and have to go shoe shopping which I hate to shop.
I need to do some of my exercises before bed.

I forgot, I threw out so many bottles of old condiments and sauces, apple butters bbq sauces jellies and fattening salad dressings ...It weighed a ton. I cleaned off a few of the shelves.
and organized it better and there was so much more room!!!!! yay!
