I'll be back on the right track come October. Looking forward to sleeping in and less stress for especially the first two weeks of October.
All of my Mon-Fri work weeks in October are 3 days long due to Jewish Holidays (3 days) / National Holiday (1 day for Columbus Day) and then my trip (4 days off from work) during the second half of October.
Looking forward to the trip but can't really think about it now.
At this moment i am looking forward to resting up a bit. I know i need some rest at home. Once I get thru this week here (just tomorrow is left) and once this long weekend and Jewish New Year passes, I'll be less stressed. Looking forward to not being at work on Monday / Tuesday. Needed it.

i think it's the milk in the coffee or just the acidity.
Boss is retiring on Friday.
I think this is the majority of stuff going on...
and the bridal shower on Sunday was busy for me...along with just a busy week. so glad i'm feeling better.
i think run down also causing binging looking for fast energy.
I think a large portion of my problem stems from drinking too much caffeine, but i'm managing it with days where i do get the extra sleep.

I am feeling in a very positive & good mood this morning.
Why? Well, I had a good workout. Sleep wasn't the worst at all. Did wake up a couple times but I'm very content overall. I had a chat with my "Aussie Friend" (different man - yes, he lives in AUSTRALIA). what are we? we are friends, known each other 7-8 years. We did meet online on quite a "risque site." But we have become friends with benefits in the digital age & i see myself as his friend maybe even for life.
We are the same age, I'm older by only a few months or so. So we had a hot chat. Was nice. Texting usually. Lots of photos we send of us, also of our surroudings, things we see, our environments. Nice man. He has a really interesting job. It's offshore. He works on like an oil rig in the middle of the ocean. Sleeps there. really different type of job. Good pay.
So he may work weeks or like a month straight, then weeks or month off. Very interesting job. Demanding job when he is working. He also takes classes & studies quite a bit when he isn't working. He already has two homes, couple cars. His other home when he isn't living in Western Australia is Bali. Yep, he's a cool guy. :) LIke i've said, we've known each other maybe 8 years now...i know a lot about him.
Progress as of today: 4 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!

_____________________________________________________
Working on getting back on track now. Last night I sorta binged a little. Got lots on my mind to take care off. I'm proud of myself overall.
Dentist visit went well, no cavities, no problems.
I wrapped my gift for Sam, my boss, who retires & had his bday on 9/30/16. It's so perfect looking. I'll give it to him on his birthday. I'll have to post the pics here for you to day. So proud of myself for getting him this thoughtful gift. I did good.
Went to bed late because I was up ordering my dad's bday gift, using my own Sear's gift cards to get myself a new heater for work bc mine broke today!!!, and also bought some bed sheets / pillow cases & a t-shirt. Everything cost $110, but I had a $100 gift card! wahoo!
I need to pick up an office card for everyone at work for Sam's retirement. I also need to pick up a gift card for my sister's bday (it's what she wants)....I will maybe pick up BOTH on the weekend / Friday. or maybe tonight for the card...i need to find one of those big ones. I keep forgetting - i know the stores already that have them.
This weekend is a good friend's surprise bachelorette party Sunday - i need to both wrap her gifts and write the card...working on getting organized.
My best friend's bday is th 24th. I will see her the 25th but may not give her her gifts on that day....not sure. I need to think of something for her still. Only got her a magnet so far with a saying of "Don't let anyone steal or sparkle" i think....? i forget exactly but it's good. She got me a $20 Dunkin Donuts gift card but i wanted to do something better... i do have a card for her.
My sister's bday is TODAY. Dad's is 10/8. Think I have enough going on!

Good on the dentist visit. My cleaning is next month.
A $20 Dunkin Donuts gift card is a dangerous gift!
Yes, my boss was good to me :-D I used to not like him lots my first couple years, that changed over time. He always wants the best for me. He understands me. Good man. Some people may take him the wrong way, like he's racist, etc,, but i understand him. He was born and raised in Israel, old school, he's 67 now...i think turning 68 actually!
she got me the gift yes...i must put it in my wallet...already could have used it 1x! but paid cash! :)
i will miss my boss a ton :/
have a nice day Annie.

Sounds like good plans! It'll be nice to have less stress next month.
yeah, really looking forward to a change in pace in general like different plans and a whole change for the entire month. it will be good to get my head outta work for awhile.
puddles on 09/29/2016:
You are sounding real good J. Oct. will be good for you. Might as well take advantage of it.
Thank you Fran. I am a bit beat at the moment and so I guess October will be good for me - some rest the first half the month before a trip :)
I may be tired after the trip - but at least i'll be able to rest up a little bit before it :)
Plus - I am getting a massage on this long weekend.....!
