RD's life diary: I'm back (sort of)

Aw Gawd RD. Sorry to hear you've got this worry.:eek: It can't hurt to try the others advice talking to the cops.:hug99:
 
I managed to gt a few hours decent sleep last night after seething about what my sister did. All our possessions are still in situ this morning ... so far so good.

It's my long day at Uni today ... I'm off in a little while and don't get back until 7pm, brain suitably fried! DD4 has an inset day but luckily DD3 isn't at college all day and her lovely bf (who lives with us) said he'd take DD4 fishing (isn't that what all little girls want to do on their day off?? :rolleyes:) I'd rather that though than her sitting around here just in case the town psycho turns up :mad:

I'm taking a my own coffee in a little container to Uni (save £1 a go) and even my own cup as the Uni charges 20p for a paper cup, even if you use your own coffee!! :eek:
I know it's only 20p but, hey, they all add up!

Right, onwards .... have a great day everyone.
PS
Diet is still OK, even after yesterday's fiasco - I'm very pleased as my first reaction was to head for the kitchen ... but then I remembered my eight-legged hairy food cop was still lurking and it put me off :)
 
No Uni today and I SHOULD be doing some Uni work although I know I can't settle down with 'book stuff' until the house is at least a little bit straight. At the moment it looks like someone has thrown open the door and lobbed a hand grenade in.

I've done something to my right foot. Not sure what. I was in the history lecture yesterday and I think I twisted it a bit funny and I now suspect I might have wrenched a ligament or something. It doesn't hurt to stand on as long as I keep my foot dead straight and in alignment. If I twist it at all, it's agony.

The diet is still going great guns and I haven't slipped yet. I noticed on my big ticker that I'm exactly half way - hopefully that will tip over in my favour on Monday.
 
I am sure it will Debbie, you are going great guns. I really feel like you are back in the zone, you haven't sounded so calm and confident for ages. Go Debbie, Go Debbie!!!

Love
 
I felt really wound up yesterday ... like a tightly coiled spring. I'm not sure if it was the Mirena IUD I had fitted on Tuesday settling in (it has a hormone collar) or whether I was just stressed because I was trying to write some poetry for a Uni assignment and was suffering from writer's block BIG TIME - but I definitely felt it. I also wanted to eat.
I cracked a bit in the evening and had a bar (even though I'd already had my three packs) but in the big scheme of things, an extra pack isn't too bad.

I'm still feeling a bit 'snappy' this morning and am having to try very hard not to bite everyone's head off. EVERYTHING is annoying me!

Plus I'm hungry. Uh-oh, it sounds very much like a progesterone induced mood. This is what I was like back in Feb after the Depo jab (only that was much worse). Well, now I've identified the possible cause, I'm going to do my best to fight it.
 
Sorry RD, probably my fault for describing you as calm!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am sure you are right, pecky hormones have an awful lot to answer for. You did the sensible thing last night having a bar, a few weeks ago that would probably been the end of the diet and you would have slipped off it, but not this time! Well done, that was and is a triumph!

Hope you have a nicer, calmer day today.

Love
 
Thanks Barb. I've just had a big bowl of Toffee & Walnut psyllium husk porrige sprinkled with cinnamon - it was really yummy and I'm now suitably full! :)
Just lately, I've been able to put off having my first pack until lunch time but decided to go with my body today and respond to the hunger I'm feeling. Rather that than fall off the wagon.

Think I'll give the poetry a rest until later - writing rubbish is stressing me out! Ahhh the angst of a frustrated writer!! ;)
 
I spent a bit of today wrestling with writing a poem for workshopping tomorrow at Uni ... I've come up with something: it's deep, dark and a bit depressing (seems to be my 'bag'!) but at least I have something to take in.

This afternoon, I my head was deep in arty-farty creative mode when the phone rang. It was a creditor asking for money - on a Sunday FFS! I copped and said it was against my religion to talk about money on a Sunday, said goodbye and hung up.

I was really pi**ed off because it broke my train of thought so I stormed through the lounge, heading for the front room (where the PC is) but on the way through, I kicked DD3's boyfriends thick, sharp-edged plastic file with my bare foot which sliced into my little toe. The air turned profanely blue as I hopped down the hallway (something along the lines of "F*** this F****ing stupid house"). By the time I reached the computer chair, the blood was well and truly flowing.

I haven't broken my toe, thankfully (although it felt like it at the time) - but it IS very sore and stings like mad. It taught me a lesson though: I must learn to curb my artistic temperament! :rolleyes:
 
Oh, artistic temperament, is that what it's called? Sorry to hear about your toe Debbie, hope it ffels a bit better now and that folk are heaping sympathy on you!

Love
 
i have an answer machine & screen my calls as i had the same thing as you with unwanted calls, now i seem to have a sixth sence as to whether is "safe" to answer the phone !
sorry to hear about sore toe, hope it feels better soon
xx :)
 
Just a quickie with my week 2 weigh in result .... <drum roll>

I lost 6lb! That's a stone in two weeks! I'm over the moon: I'm now 16st exactly and so 'should' be in the 15s by next Monday. :D
 
well done Debbie, thats fantastic news, a good spur to keep you going. Sounds like you've really got your head in the right place this time.
xx
 
THat is fantastic - well done!! especially with all you've had to cope with lately and getting back to Uni etc.. You are an absolute star. A whole stone, how fab is that!!

Love
 
RD thats ace, well done, a stone is a wicked amount in 2 weeks, say bye bye to the 16s!!!
 
Excllent W/I result.
also the prospect of breaking into the next floor down so soon should really help.

hope toe less sore today.
Well done re creditor. I'm not religious in the least but it still feels v wrong for anyone to try & recover moneyon a sunday. A gross invasion of privacy.

Click to expand...

I'm not either Jane but I get calls ALL week (even though I'm trying to sort things out with the help of the CAB and have written to all the head offices concerned) so it would be nice to get a day off from someone in an Indian call centre harrassing me for money I don't have. <sigh>
The bit about the 'day of rest' just popped out! :D

Oh why can't I win the lottery!!!
