relaxing

It has been the most enjoyable and relaxing March break in my recent memory. While Kelly would say that doesn't mean much, I disagree. I am learning to do the things that give me real pleasure, within the limits forced upon me by age, finances etc. I read, played, sang, swam and most importantly spent time with people I love.

I'm still a little concerned that I won't be getting enough nutrition without tracking, but am persevering for now. I feel good and am not hungry in the evenings, which I will take as a good sign. If the scale cooperates too, then I will continue. I will still use it to scan items when I can get that working.

I almost forgot to tell you a funny story resulting from my stupidity, and I don't like to miss those as I know they make Pete feel better! I bought a new water softener and the plan was for Jeff to come have a look after school. I picked it up in the morning and he would be here some time before I returned from c!inic. So, when I got home I had to get it out of the van so it would be here and I could still get to clinic. I backed up close to the side door, got it out of the van, up the one step into the door and then was faced with either leaving the door open or moving it down stairs. Of course, I knew I could probably get it to slide down if I laid it on one side. I didn't want to chance it crashing to bits at the bottom, so figured better get behind it. Well the damn thing is so heavy that it nearly ran right over me! A few bruises later I did manage to get it down, both in one piece!

It's a little scary, but I think I'm happy, elly
