Weekend & Wine

Call me a nerd, a loser, or antisocial, but here’s how my ideal night goes: a glass of wine, my favorite music playing, and NO ONE ELSE AROUND. I’m in the computer room surfing and relaxing; Romeo’s peering over at me from his side of the desk. It’s peaceful and quiet and I’m in an awfully good mood. Tonight is a friend’s going away/birthday party, but I’m feeling like I’m starting to catch a cold, so I’m staying in (which is why I’m surprised I’m in such a good mood).

The past few days I have felt absolutely exhausted and I don’t know why.  I haven’t done anything out of the ordinary.  I guess my body really is trying to fight off the cold that hasn’t even begun yet.

I restarted my Sparkpeople weight loss information and printed out the grocery list so I can stick to the recommended meal plans.  That’s something I’ve never taken advantage of.  Most of what was on there seemed delicious, so I don’t think I’ll have a problem.  I also got reacquainted with the Normal Eating Support Group (here) because I’m trying desperately to stop my emotional eating habits.  Things with that are on the up-and-up.

Tomorrow morning I get to sit through two hours of a baptist service for my sign language class.  Hopefully it goes by fast.  I’m bummed that I have to get up early but I can always come home and take a nap.  It’s better than going to Jehovah’s Witness or the Pentecostal church (totally not knocking them, but personally, I can’t stand those services).

I’m going to go curl up with a book.  The thing is, I have no idea which book to read next.  Maybe the Shrink Yourself! book I bought awhile ago.

    My ideal night is something similar most of the time. Like right now I’m watching TruTV (Saturday Night Solution) and just relaxing after studying for like 6 hours today. I’m taking the MPRE next Friday so I’m making sure I’m not going to fail it. :)

    I’m so glad to find someone else that uses SparkPeople. I used it much more often when I was not pregnant, but am hoping to get back into the habit of the website when the baby is born. And I’m glad you linked the Normal Eating Support group… I’d never heard of it before now.

    Hope the service goes well for you today!

    I believe is the cold that has you exhausted. Maybe you should take some Vitamin C capsules. I’ve been quite exhausted lately as well. I’m anemic and I haven’t taken my medication in a month or more. It’s bad of me but when I do take them my eating is out of control. I’ve been trying to watch my weight lately because I’ve been gaining a few pounds. I wish I can stick to a healthy diet but it’s impossible. I find myself eating mostly junk food.

    I hope you’re feeling better by now. Take care. :-)
