Sweet Tea & Fish Sticks

April 7th, 2008 at 03:14 am

That's what I had for dinner tonight. Yum. I'm finding out very quickly that when it's just me, the pup, and the kitty, my cooking skills go untested.

On the bright side, I had a No Spend Day today, but mostly because I was lazy and didn't go anywhere. I did manage to get a load of dishes washed, clean up the kitchen & living room some, and list some items on CraigsList. I'm not extremely hopeful that I will find a buyer, but it would be great if I did.

I talked to BF tonight and told him that he needs to hurry and get here before I forget how to make spaghetti. It's so funny that my psychological state affects my motivation to prepare a meal. I have big plans for a full meal sometimes, but as soon as I crank out the can opener or turn the stove on, I start to hear this nagging little voice that says, "Why bother?"

This situation, along with the fact that I've stopped spending as much money on fast food, does come with one benefit: I have lost 4 pounds since I moved! Smile

I've still got a long way to go to get to my goal weight, but I will be happy to shave off a pound or so a week. The sad part is that it's actually not that hard for me to lose weight, I've done it in the past whenever I've been busy with work or school without even meaning to. I have come to the realization that I need to go ahead and get down to the size that I want to be now... before I lose the metabolism and it gets harder.

I had plans to go to Walmart and pick up some film I had developed today, but as the day drug on I didn't feel like going anywhere. I kind of wish that I had now, because I'm curious to see what's on the camera. I have this habit of taking FOREVER to get film developed, so by the time I get the pictures back, I usually say something like, "Oh, look, these are the pictures we took on vacation! I thought I'd lost that
camera!" Big Grin

I forgot to add the other day that I bought a book of stamps for $8.40. Hopefully they will last me a while, since I don't really mail alot.

-----------------------------------------

Puppy Update: Today was not much better than yesterday. The pup had went in the floor WHILE I was attaching his leash to go outside. I did catch him circling later in the day and took him out, but after 15 minutes of nothing, we came back in, and he actually didn't go then either. Maybe the urge had passed?

Anyway, he had one more accident later in the afternoon, and each time I would calmly put him in his crate for a few minutes while I cleaned it up. He surprised me by not whining THAT much. We did have one victory... I took him out earlier this evening, and he went #2 almost immediately. It's all in the timing I suppose. :P

-----------------------------------------

Well, that's all I have to report right now. I have to work the early shift in the morning, and since I'm not all that enthused about work in general these days, I guess I should be getting to bed fairly early... don't wanna be any crankier than usual.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!!!

    Re: the pup. Hmmm. A couple of days is too short a time to declare failure, but I'm thinking if its a couple of weeks of unimprovement, its time to get advice from the vet. Just want to give you a plan B. Smile
