So yeah.. another fake weigh in just to give the FS weigh in reminder a rest over the weekend and update my challenge. I did pull on my snug jeans this morning and they buttoned... so yes, I'm relieved. BUT, before I pulled them on I said, "Ok.. rule is ... if they don't button... I'm STILL going to have a wonderful day and weekend. If they do, well, that'll be pretty dang cool. Agreed?'
So.. pretty dang cool to start the day.
Especially after homemade chili last night. I'm not sure if the challenge is still open to join but I'm doing one about 'Well Fed vs Fed Up' and the administrator began the forum with a post of the 'ideal pantry'. Mine was ideal last night because I was craving chili and ALMOST walked over to the market to pick up a can. Yeah. Me. Thinking about eating canned processed crap. When did that happen?
But instead, I checked and had all the makings, including chili meat in the freezer. Yum.. good good.
Mindful eating.. it is interesting how it DOES take my stomach about 30 mins to realize 'yeah, Stop it.. we don't want anymore' even though my tongue is saying 'thank you Ma'am.. may I have another?'
I'd had about 12oz of chili (probably about 8oz of it was just the broth .. that's always my favorite part) and wanted 'another spoon or two' but told myself 'go ... shower first... do a couple of things.. see how you feel in a few minutes.' And by golly... the tongue and stomach finally caught up with each other.
Which made that 1/2 cup I had just before bed even more enjoyable. Yum ditty yum.
Road trip this weekend. Destination unknown. Blondie riding shotgun, Mushy stretching out on the back seat. Time to christen my new GPS "TomTom". I may even download the voice of Roger Moore. Wild woman I am.
I packed this morning with the plan that whereever the road takes us will require casual attire ... I basically loaded my 'weekender bag' with whatever came out of the clothes dryer making less for me to hang up. In the scheme of Thelma and Louise.. I'm both. Once I pack the kitchen sink.. I have to go back and wipe down all the countertops.
So everything's packed ... I just have to get thru the next few hours and hope I do some freaking business today ... I was 5 mins late this morning and had a customer banging down the door. Now that I'm here I can hear the wind whistling and am waiting for a tumbleweed to roll in front of me.
I'm not even taking my laptop with me this weekend...and I can't get on FS from my KindleHD ... cannot log in from the web. Not sure WHAT that's about but solving that I guess gives me something to live for, right? In other words.. let me wish you all a wonderful Friday and fantastic weekend. Celebrate today ~ we only get this one once, you know :-)

My rules this weekend:
I think I may start doing this... even keeping some in the car just to get the post mark ... something like 'had a great time here .. glad we came..'
Funny:
SO TRUE!!
