I was happy to see the rain fall on my drive to work this morning. Our grass has bounced back and isn't all hard and prickly to walk on. That is a nice change considering what our lawn looked like a month ago. Also, it is a relief to not have to water my flowers today. At the end of the season I bought 2-six packs of pansies (I think that is what they are) and put them in the shade in front of the garage. The pot on the right got morning and VERY early afternoon sun. They looked beautiful, healthy green, they flowered. The pot on the left looked worse to begin with. The flowers got morning AND afternoon sun. Not all afternoon, but definitely more than the others. They have really started to spread out and flower now. So I am happy. I brought them back from the edge of death. Which gives me a sense of accomplishment. I didn't kill them off. I think this time last summer my flowers had already dried up and died. I just didn't have the patience to water them every day.
So my hip has been pretty much in pain constantly. I have just learned to take the drugs and shut up about it. Although Monday was a pretty black day for me. I was in so much pain and the Aleve wouldn't take it away. As much as I wanted it too. The week has gotten better.
Josh and I have decided to try an e-diet. A lady at work is on one and really likes it. I don't know if she has lost much weight because she is always eating out. But we are trying it. She is printing me off menus to let us see if we like it. If so we will go from there. That way the only $$ we are out is the food money. Let's see if I can get Josh to eat things like hummus and tuna, not together. I am not going to talk about it until I am ready so please don't ask!! This is something that was VERY hard for me to come to terms with. I am just happy that Josh is being supportive and helping me through this. It is not that I don't think that I won't get support from you, it is just that I am not sure about this. I am not sure if I can do it and I don't want to let anyone down besides myself. I hope that makes sense. Maybe after trying it for a few weeks we can talk! Until then shhhhh..........
Well I should probably get to work!! I have a busy day ahead of me!!!!
