I struggled yesterday, didn't blog. I woke up around 6 this morning and 45 minutes later I knew I was in trouble. It came in like a wave of darkness that actually scared me. I got up, went to the pool, went for a ride, came home and did several baking experiments in prep for a visit with John, Linda, Jessie and Sam. I kept busy all day and focused on the visit, which was wonderful and exactly what I needed.
What a lovely gift from Jessie!
I ate the rest of the ice cream after they left, but at least I made Sammie take home the nut and seed brittle!
Love, elly
Are you having another birthday? That could be a factor. And if you can stay grouchy after a visit from that crew then you're a better man than me. Hang in there. I can take care of the rest of the world for a couple of days, so just take care of yourself.
ReplyDeleteAlso, ride the bike til you fall off. Then a little extra eating doesn't hurt quite so much.
Oh, and the barley bags are not very heavy.
Love
Peter
Happy Birthday Elly! Jessie's gift is a great gift, and the visit from that crew is icing on the cake! I am more proud of you now for being open and honest.
ReplyDeleteSwim and ride a little further tomorrow, and you will be right back on track!
love you more

I feel like my family and I got the real gift, just being able to spend time and share a meal with you. I am so proud of you, and I love the fact that they have you as a positive role model.
