Late Night

Thanks to a group text - ugh.  I hate group text messages.  I can't "leave" a group (since my phone is old) and I keep my volume on when my husband is out of town.  Passive-aggressive me wants to respond to the text when I wake up ... good morning ladies ... but I chose "nice" over "asshole" lol.

The chocolate and wine night got changed to next week and is later in the evening.  I'm going to pass ... even with my say YES motto.  I don't want to be up late drinking wine and eating chocolate.  If there were other foods, other reasons, etc - that's a different story.  I can't go and just stand there - I'd have to eat and drink.  The same group of ladies is getting together the following week for our monthly gathering.  I said YES to that night and am looking forward to it.  And this night immediately follows our out-of-town trip.  Timing is bad.

The upside to being awakened (every 10 min) is I gave up and stayed up to finish the book.  It was good.  I'll read the W30 book when I get home and then onto War and Peace.  I'm curious if I can really comprehend and enjoy it.

Today is a chill kind of day.  Weightlifting and packing and prepping to be out of town (dog, etc).  Hubby is returning early from a trip, so I'll have him around this afternoon.

I'm super excited for the trip, but am a little apprehensive too.  That all-or-nothing is acting up!  I will have 3 1/2 days of eating out.  I can handle the "treats" aspect, but I will miss my healthy foods.  A side of veggies is not enough.  Breakfast will be tough.  I don't want to come home and battle feeling crappy.  I just am getting back to normal with my energy and stamina.  I'm not ready to battle it again.  It's the length of the trip that's hard - 3 1/2 days is a long time.  When we go on vacation for a week, we usually have a refrigerator, etc. so just a portion of the day is eating out.  This is a long time for no alternatives.  I need to remember my HAPPY.

I plan to write tomorrow morning (if time allows) but then radio silence until Tuesday.  My routines are all messed up lol.  This CERTAINTY girl is going full-blown VARIETY.

Off to walk my dog on this cool morning ... hope the crisp air stays.
