AF day 108 or 109....

Wednesday, November 27, 2013

I am sitting at my computer and have a cat in my lap or I would get up and look at my calendar.
She must have read my mind as she just jumped down. It is 108. Ah got up and stretched a bit.
It has been a good day for me. Got up early and had a cup of no calorie stevia sweetened black coffee.
I took a MUCH needed shower and read some of the paper. I did not have any clients this morning because I knew that I need to be fasting and have blood work drawn, yearly stuff and thyroid and d3. Hope my insurance pays for it all there must have been 5 different thyroid tests that she ran.
I see my pdoc on tuesday. Don't know if I will tell her about my AF days or not will wait till I have more days under my belt. When I see her again in 3-4 months and I am still AF then I will tell her....that is unless she point out asks me which she probably will. So I guess I will just answer her questions as they arise. She will be happy. She was the one who told me to go to AA and get a sponsor. I told her that I don't think that I am an alcoholic. She said go look up the definition. I went to one AA meeting and did not like it at all. They made me speak, I may have told you this already so am repeating myself.
sorry.
Last night I froze when I went on campus to see my hubby's students jazz band concert, and went to the wrong place!!!! Luckily the parking gods were with me and a place opened up right in front of the building. His students played well.
I have this condition called Raynauds. It is where my fingers and toes turn white and it is a circulation type thingy. It can be painful if I ignore it, I have to hold my hands under hot water to thaw them out. The best way to deal with it is to try to avoid it from happening.
I wore gloves and long underwear but my ankles were exposed.
Today I wore wool socks and hiking boots and a scarf and it was nice and sunny which heated up my car and felt so good. yesterday was rainy and gloomy. It was breezy again but give me the sun any day.It is supposed to be 25 tonight...burr! It is supposed to be another bright and sunny day tomorrow for thanksgiving.
WE are going to be with friends, a pot luck of sorts. We are bringing a lot of green bean casserole and hubby is making clam dip. It is very good! Have not had it for many years just remembering liking it. Our hosts are cooking an organic turkey. This is the 3rd year that we will attend their gathering. They host it for fellow faculty who might not have family there. I think there will be 17 people there.I hope that my anxiety issues don't get to me. I hope that I sit with people that I know.
I am not bringing anything to drink just water. I don't think that I was drinking last year at this time but can't remember.
anyway.
Today I had a very nice lunch at Sandras health food store. I had meat balls and a bowl of butternut squash soup and some beets. all very good and healthy. I saw 3 foot care clients then came home.
Earlier I had gone to the store to buy the casserole ingredients crazy at the store.
I always snack when I come home before dinner and tonight it was bad. I ate almonds and chex cereal snack that my hospice patient gave tome finished half the jar. Ate chocolate covered espresso beans.My weight was up a couple of pounds in a week. have been snacking more. Last week I used a whole can of full fat coconut milk for my coffee. Very fattening but low in carbs. anyway This week I have used french vanilla creamer.
Need to get back to my dieting but not tomorrow. Too many good things to eat.
There will be cherry pies! yummy!
I have been on this computer for hours and hours and hours. This has become my new addiction.
Don't seem to be able to ration my time on here, especially when jeff is away. He is gone out with some friends.
Well I wanted to update you.
I have been sleeping pretty well, I have a lot to be thankful for: My health and family and friends.
I am pretty emotionally stable right now so that is a blessing.
Here is hoping you get to spend some quality time with your family or friends sometime this long weekend.
