Tuesday - Started with counting my blessings

Tuesday, May 08, 2012

As I muddled through my morning of getting up, making the bed, get dressed and go downstairs to feed the cats, dog, fish and my backyard birds...I decided I would sit with my coffee this morning and 1) count my blessings 2) remind myself I am the only one who can change things within my body and mind 3) pray for all my friends and neighbors on our local prayer chain, as well as others I heard about since then. Don't get me wrong - I did not get on my knees (remember I am still nursing a badly scraped knee) but sat on my tush and did the praying at my kitchen table and it took all of 5 minutes. Then I was off to the laundry room, throw a load in, fold a load of towels from the dryer and then off to the computer to check emails, go through Avon notes for the day and get ready to MOVE! Oh and between that, I managed to walk the dog a bit also.

Okay - I looked up and it is 11:45 and since Breakfast was nothing but coffee, I made sure to grab a Progresso low sodium vegetable soup and for 200 cal. ate both portions! (1/2 a can would not have filled me up) and 15 sundried basil crackers (1 svg exactly) Now it is time to mark all my food choices down and it's 12:51 already! I have yet to get out the door, but I DID make contact with clients on line. So not a total Avon loss of time. LOL

It amazes me how fast a day can go! Those 24 hours are my hours of choice each day. Even with the delay to get out the door...I am glad for my accomplishments thus far.

Oh yeah and that one pound loss today too!
