New Leaves

strange cravings

Usually, when in my natural enviornment, I have a particular way of eating. I eat one thing, like a sandwhich, then go for two hours, eat a piece of fruit, go for a few hours, eat a bowl of cereal. go a few more hours eat a vegetable. I probably eat five-six times a day. I have been trying very hard to stay away from the frosty machine (curse the damn thing) and fried foods. Doing well at that. Most days, it doesn't even bother me. But *yesterday* was an exercise in sainthood as EVERTHING looked good to me. I was like *drooool*. But, since I play the mean mother to my inner child "No, You can't have that" "Whyyy" "Cause I said so, and that's just the way it is." Since I do that, I went to the natural food store last night and got some things, and actually ate a plate of food with variety. I had artichoke hearts, steamed broccoli, veggie baked beans, and asparagus. I couldn't eat it all at once. It seems that I split it up into threes and ate it that way. Not intentionally mind you. Just, ate half, then a lil while later, ate a bit more, then took the rest in for lunch today. Now, it's a plain and simple day again, I just want broccoli, lightly steamed. nada else.

*goes down stairs, starts broccoli*

I hope to go to Columbus on Friday night so that I may raid the storage unit, yet again. I want to be finished with the storage unit. If I had a truck, I'd be done with it already. There's a dresser and some chairs yet. I believe that the last 'stuff' I can get with this next car load. It's just the furniture doesn't fit into my wee car. Need John's car fixed. Which should be happening this week. Theoretically.

I through a fit at work today. I did it on purpose. The nice approach didn't work. It accomplished what I wanted. I got switched onto another job. I have been working the same position for the better part of six months. I am tired of it. I know they are short handed, but when I saw that they were training a new person on something else, I was like, "oh no, this isn't going to fly."

And I did damn well. Thank you.

The day absolutely flew by and I didn't feel the need to tell myself, "now you are home", when I got home.

I am starting to get excited. Thanksgiving is next week, and am going to see my dad. John and I are both going. Very, very cool. I am going to e mail my dad a shopping list :P so that he knows what to get so that I can cook a wee thanksgiving dinner. I'm so excited. Thanksgiving is when I usually make a dinner and then invite people over to my house. But the last couple of years, I seem to have visited my father. I think that next time, I'll have him visit me so that I can still invite people to my house, and he can see my place.

In June, we always have a family reunion. I was hoping to get a hold of Tara and Brian (step brother and step sister, Janet's children) and invite them to join me for the family reunion. It would tickle my dad pink. He would be so happy.

Well, that's the current goings on. Pretty boring right now, but that's just the way it is sometimes.
