Had a quiet morning, resting from all the excitement yesterday with my Overeaters Anonymous group. Such a stellar group of women! I haven't felt my actions and words so appreciated like that in a long, long time. Of course i appreciate the online support here also, especially Fern46.! Women supporting women -- it's a beautiful thing! Men are so useful and amusing to watch, of course. I had two plumbers in recently and the second was so skilled and effective -- he removed the old toilet, installed the new one, settled the bill by e-transfer, carted the old toilet away, charged an affordable price -- all in under an hour, no fuss, no muss. Reminded me a lot of being little and watching my dad do handy-work. Such a good lifestyle for a man, doing skilled labor.
I'm doing well with my eating. Fiber is the priority now and i find it best to get it from veggies. Even had two big leaves of cabbage today! Protein is he second priority and i had some chicken and a whey powder protein drink. Am finding i'm very sensitive to rich foods, as my aunt was as she aged. It's for the best -- rich foods are usually empty calories. So i have some hope for my physical health and i'm just going to hang in there and "do my job" as all the pro athletes say!
In Bipolar Land things are quiet, blessedly quiet. I feel good and bought some temporary black hair dye that i am eager to try. I have grey hair and feel it ages me but not willing to put up with permanent dye jobs and the maintenance nightmare of dying the roots frequently. I think temporary dye is a good option. If the store gets some blue and green in i will mix them and try aqua next! Fun! I just feel like changing up my look, having some fun with it. I've been dressing in flowing clothes lately and it's soooooooo comfy! A whole new look for me! I love the look of blue jeans bu they are so hard on my ginormous waist. I just don't have the figure for jeans.
It's a rainy foggy Fall afternoon and while i DID get my dog out for a good break it is also nice to be cozy inside.
