Today I want to focus on being grateful for my husband. This morning I found myself feeling annoyed with him. For the past week or so I've been sleeping in the other bedroom ("my" bedroom) because I wasn't feeling well. I asked him last night when I'd get to sleep in "our" bedroom again but he wanted me to keep sleeping in the other room. This morning I walked in "our" bedroom and it was an absolute pig sty. It looked like a teenage boy lives in there instead of a 42 year old man. He also had the kitchen in a wreck from baking cookies last night. On top of that he's been letting the dog in the house with dirty paws so there are paw prints in the living room. That leaves one measily room in the house that is supposed to be half mine that wasn't a complete wreck--and I'm currently sharing that room with a senile cat who cries during the night and smells up the place a bit. I felt like what should be "our" house had become his mess. I am not currently feeling very grateful for him, but I want to feel grateful for him so I want to focus on what he has done lately. He's taken charge of the project of getting solar panels installed on our house--interviewing solar companies, roofers and electricians; he's taken on the yard project where dirt is being replaced with DG so we don't have to water our backyard at all; he does all our laundry; he takes care of the pets when work or fun takes me away; and he makes me smile and laugh. I do love him even when I don't love his actions (or lack of action).
I'm worried about today. They are bringing pizza in. This is Day 2 of going without sugar and wheat. This is the hardest day and they're going to sit pizza in front of me. That means I have to find something really yummy for my lunch that pizza won't tempt me. I don't want to white-knuckle my way through today but I guess that's what is going to happen. sigh.
I was planning to go to the gym at work today to do Day 1 of the C25K plan (Couch potato to 5k) but I took my workout clothes with me last night to go to yoga and didn't pack any to bring back to work. Looks like I'll have to start that tomorrow. I did walk the dog this morning so that's something I guess.
