Well, that day has come and gone. And it was boring, and long, and seemingly endless. But tomorrow I'll go back and do it all over again, although it looks like it may be a tad busier.
After work we had a nourishing meal of low fat bratwurst wrapped in whole wheat tortilla's accompanied by steamed edemame. Mmmm you have no idea how luscious that was! It was so friggin hot in the house, I had no desire to cook. Anyhow it worked and we were full.
Joan phoned, she has moved AGAIN. We talked for at least an hour. I don't know how we do it but we rarely run out of stuff to discuss. She too is retiring, albeit a month later, so maybe we can do the odd little jaunt together ala Thelma and Louise without the driving over a cliff part. Joan was my best friend in nursing school and we have remained close over the years although we go a long time without actually seeing each other. She is in a totally different socio-economic bracket (read LOADED) which has always made me a bit uncomfortable , but it doesn't seem to bother her.
Today I started on this stuff called PGX. It is a soluble fiber product that absorbs water and reduces the speed at which sugars are absorbed by the bloodstream causing a stabilization of blood sugar, allegedly reducing hunger. We shall see. So far it has made me burp and feel like puking. But that's the first dose. I will try it again tomorrow and see...
Tomorrow it is supposed to cool off big time and perhaps even rain. I sure hope it does. It is too darn dry everywhere and I worry about fire. I hate the smell of forest fire in the air;it makes me feel panicky and like I can't breath properly.
later...
