Hi again!

I'm checking back in because the struggle is REAL today!

I predicted a post-challenge day that might require a Herculean effort to stay on point.  Yep.  Did I jinx it or is it a self-fulfilling prophecy?  More like been-there-done-that too many times to count.

This morning was busy.  Long dog walk (3 miles), cleaning crew (so dog management), lunch prep, laundry and NOW .... RELAX time!  Except I want to eat.  I'm NOT hungry (I had big, yummy lunch).  I want the chocolate candy and the cookies and the cheese and a piece of cake.  And, because I'm reasonable, I'll wait to want wine until 4 o'clock, but that's on the list too.

Given how much I'm craving sweets, this might be a PMS moment.  If my schedule holds true, it's 2 days away.  Because of travel, everything was wonky and early last month, so maybe - maybe not.  I didn't do anything yesterday that SHOULD trigger SWEETS craving.

As I'm typing, I'm getting more convinced this is PMS.  Oh lordy.  No break for the weary this week. A refrigerator full of extra yummy no-nos that will derail me and set my stomach off and make me feel lousy (after I bask in the joy of stuffing my face) is NO BEUNO this week!!

It's only 1:30 -- not even the witching hours yet!  I'm home alone with dogs and my cravings and adding to the mix is I AM SO TIRED!!  Like take-a-nap tired (which I only do about twice a year).

Maybe I should nap?  Maybe that will make time go by AND cure my tired.  I have 6 hours before it's reasonable to go to bed.  That might mess up my early bed in a big way.  On the rarest of occasions that I do nap, it's never for 20 minutes.  More like HOURS.

Okay - enough venting.  I need to stay clear of the refrigerator and get busy doing something ... anything.  6 hours left ... fingers crossed!

EDIT:
4 o'clock and I already ate dinner.  Best I could do ... oh, I want those sweets!!!
