Food was …mah…could have been better…totally missed my 6:00 feeding!  lol  too funny…I’m stuffed like all the time…I’m sure that means I’m well on my way to bitchiness!  My new goal is to get my body used to eating every 3 hours or less to optimize my metabolism and if I get it there, I should be bitchy if I’m longer than 3 hours!  lol…my friends and family aren’t to sure about this.  Waters were good too…workout was most excellent, I’ll enter it later on.

Emotionally;  very happy, I got to see Eric today, woohoo.  And I fried my brains working on my website…and that’s about it. 

Yikes.  Had a terrible migraine this afternoon, so I didn’t make all my foods.  Went to Aquasizes tonight, which was fun.  Eric called, but it was too late to see each other, so we’ll hang out tomorrow after work.  I’m looking forward to it.  I just finished a major henna on my calf!  lol  wish I could do the whole thing and wrap it around properly, but I can’t without squishing it!  lol  it actually looks really good, I’m definately getting better. 

focusing on Halloween for my body/nutrition goals and taking a break from focusing on my vacation in jan/feb…I’m finding i’m starting to lose focus on that goal…I can see it all clearly in my head, but I’ve been finding my focus slipping lately.  So, I’m going to try a short term one to focus on and see if that helps get be back on track. 

Emotionally:  Not much to tell… had a migraine, so not to happy, took advil and tried to sleep most of the day…happy Eric called and really, really wanted to hang out with me…I wanted to hang out with him too, but he has to work at 6:30 so that doesnt leave enough time for hanging out.    Tomorrow we’ll have more time.   

It’s funny, but I have my long lost daughter on my facebook…I’ve sent her video around (before her ex deleted it) saying hey, look, my long lost daughter!  and yet still people don’t believe it.  I find it cute and funny.  My one friend re: the video said "so, did you just stumble along someone who looked like you?"  and was shocked when I said, no, she’s really my long lost daughter.  And tonight I had another, thought she was my niece in the 3 generations photo I posted.  And I was asked who I was in the relationship with…when I said, Eric, his pics on my facebook.  She was like, really?  I thought you just got lucky and some hot guy let you take his pic.  I find that cute and funny too… Yea, I’m all about the layers…funny because, I really do put all my layers out there! 

Anyway, todays workout was kicka$$ and food was good… I managed to eat every three hours or less today and I’ve eaten 5 times so far…so woohoo!  Decided to set a mini-goal for halloween.  I really need to drop a few inches to fit into my pumpkin costume!  (I bought a dress for new years…it was supposed to be Coral, I look great in coral, but it’s orange, like really, really, orange orange!  So the only thing I can wear it for is as a pumpkin!  (bought it on E-bay…lesson kinda learned!)

Emotionally;  Great day, still glowing from seeing Eric yesterday…went to a luscious bag party at a girlfriends house…bought a purse and a beach bag (Polka dots for my polka dot vacation!)  woohoo!  it was so fun & nice to see old friends again. 

I don’t believe I forgot to post before bed two days in a row!  Ack!

Well my workout partner bailed on me again…   very sad.  but she told me she wouldn’t make today either so I’ll be heading to the gym after this.   Food was good, Managed every 3 hours except for the last set before bed.  Will try to do better today.  Water was good.

 Emotionally;  Great! and Gigglie.  Saw Eric yesterday, between his work shifts.  I’m amazed at how much I missed him.  So that was great and gigglie.  I’m so wierd, I know!  lol  other than that, felt tired and borderline coldish all day except after Eric visited, then I was all happy, etc. 

anyway…that was my yesterday in a nutshell, take care!

for yesterday…I was to exhausted last night to post!  sorry, self!    

OMG!  Totally mis-calculated my finances last week and I only have $14 in the bank.  Discovered this little gem of truth while I was trying to pay my Costco bill at the check out and my debit kept bouncing!!  AAAAAAck!  Talk about panic!  oopsie.  Everything’ll be back on track in a couple of days. 

Henna’d my first ‘other person’ last night, I think it looks OK.  then I did a blocky one on myself, did OK too.  Workout we decided to do today instead because my partner wasn’t going to be home until 9:00 pm after a full days work.  Hopefully she doesn’t bail again!  or if she does, hopefully she lets me know early so I can go by myself.  Food was OK…made every 3 hours until supper at 8:00.  So I ate at 8:00; 10:30, 12:30, 4:00 and 7:30…so, not so bad!  forgot to eat after that…oopsie. 

Emotionally:  Missed Eric…he had to work a double, then at the club until 3:00 am…so didn’t have any time to visit. It’ll be great if he gets the job on the rigs because then I’ll be able to see him more often.  Ironic.  Otherwise happy except for a stressfull bit at Costco.  Did my first henna on a third party and I think my hennaing is getting better…I even attempted guilding.  Need more colours.   Went to a long and required course yesterday am/aft…and paid some dues to RECA for my licencing….how exciting is that?  lol

 and that’s my yesterday! 

Yes, I’m bumping it back a couple of weeks to Jan 31, 2009, just had the realization today that if Tenille and I get our tattoos over x-mas, they won’t be healed by Jan 17th!!!  and it would totally suck not being able to run in the sand or frolic in the water!  lol!  oh well, that’s ok, I’m sure we’ll all get a better deal on last min for the end of jan beg of feb anyway.  I’m so excited, I can’t even explain!!! The last time I went to a hot sandy foreign beach, I was 12 in Greece.  Workout was excellent today, think I may have made a new record for myself…we’ll find out when I enter everything into the workout log thingie.  Food was good…managed 5 out of 6!  woohoo…have to get into the habit of eating every 3 hours to maximize my metabolism…those are my instructions!  baby step # 5!  next it’s add a recipe and add a new exercise once a week for both. 

I also signed up for silversmithing classes starting Oct. 2.  I’ve wanted to take silversmithing since I was with my first husband… so like 15 ish years.  We started a class, but he managed to get us ‘uninvited’ on our first night!  lol  I was too embarassed to go back.

Emotionally.  Excellent, chatted with Eric tonight…to late to visit in person, he had a long day and I have a mandatory real estate class tomorrow…woohoo….she said without enthusiasim.  Went to a couple of craft stores with my mom and picked up some exciting supplies.  My fish is looking good, can’t wait until I see what he looks like tomorrow!  I can see where I need to improve…need thicker lines for the body and some defining lines on the tail and he’ll look smokin’ next time around.  Here’s what he looked like freshly done with sparkles in the sealer.   I also think I took off the henna to soon, you’re supposed to leave it on overnight and I can’t figure out how to wrap it so it doesn’t flake off!  I’ll figure it out…and with pratice I’ll get better I’m sure….this is my third attempt at a Henna Tattoo…he’s doesn’t look to bad all sparkled up!  I love it…I never knew you could actually ‘paint’ with it…they kinda behave like oil pastels but more liquid and harder to smudge around…it’ll take some getting used to.  So far I love it and I think I’ll continue loving the medium because I don’t have to worry about what I’m going to do with the paper after it’s done!  lol

Went to the dietician today!  My foods are great, my waters are great…but I have to eat every 3 hours or less!  that’s my next goal…after that, then it’s to try one new recipe and one new exercise a week.  So here we go!  woohoo!  I’m excited.

 Tried my first Henna Fish today, didn’t do to bad I don’t think.  I’ll find out for sure tomorrow when the paste comes off.

emotionally happy, chatted with Tenille, hung out with my Mom.  need to call Marg tomorrow and what more can you ask for! 

I just realized that yesterday’s blog was ridiculously small!  lol…didn’t do much, that’s about the gist of it.  Today, did the consult with Donovan, the tattoo arteest for my and my long lost daughters coordinating foot art.  I’m excited.  However, we’ll be doing it over xmas some time, which means I’ll have to put off my trip for a few more weeks!  Ack!  Oh well, I’m sure Pablo and Pavlo will both still be hot in early Feb.  lol…yes, I’ve already named the cabana boys.  I want to run and frolic in the sand and water without worry of infections.  Still excited! 

Today. should have eaten more, but I did get breakie in and waters were much better today.  Workout was killer…my poor biceps couldn’t do another hammer curl to save my life!  So 15 of those were actually 1 arm curls. 

Emotionally:  happy.  not as focused as I’d like to be, but getting there.  Thank Gawd.  I’m excited about Henna…still working on my website.  and although I’ll focus mainly on my customers and their pets…I think I’ll be referring alot of ppl to Darin from work.  Make it easier on myself and just get someone else in the door and focus on what I do best, Market.  Eric called tonight so that also made me happy!  and OMG, the henna I experimented with yesterday has truely gotten darker, just like they said!  Wonder what was in the other ones I had done…at booths at fairs and shows…they never got dark!  AND I’m extra excited because I didn’t know you could do shading with Henna…I want to be as good as this girl one day.  They call the technique chiaroscuro henna. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPZWh1J46zE

Today, went to Henna class…great fun, I’m definately going to pursue the funness in more depth!
