Sugar is the devil!

I have had a long love affair with sugar. It has been going on for years & I have finally had enough. I am tired of the control it has over me. I have decided to go without sugar for 30 days. I'm on day two.

I figured 30 days isn't all that long. But it means no cookies, except maybe these, cake (which I'm not a big fan of anyway), candy (same, not a big fan) and ice cream. No more Grogg lattes from Boston Stoker. I'll just have to settle for Highlander grogg.

I'm feeling pretty confidant right now. We'll see where I'm at in a couple of days. I feel sorry for my family who will have to live with me through withdrawal. I do have my cousin's wedding reception coming up in a couple of weeks. I have decided that I will allow myself one thing if I want it. I'll keep you posted on how I am doing! Wish me luck!

Senioritis

I have it BAD! I am so ready to be done. Only 10 more weeks & one of those is spring break. I keep telling myself I can do anything for 10 weeks. But I don't feel like I can. I have no desire to do homework anymore. I feel scatterbrained & I am forgetting things that I wouldn't usually forget. I am so wrapped up in finishing my internship that I have time for little else.

I told myself that I wouldn't get stressed out about trying to finish two semesters of internship in one. But I am. I want to be done SO badly that I can't stand the thought of not trying hard enough and putting in enough time to finish on time. At the same time I have no desire to do so. Does that make sense?

At this point I am only there for the sole purpose of getting enough hours to finish on time. Trouble is part of those hours must be with clients and right now I am getting very few client hours. The weather has something to do with it. That & I can't control when people will and will not show up for their appointments. At least half the time they don't show. I'm scared that that is what will keep me from finishing. Something I have no control over. I'm slightly okay with having to continue my internship into next semester for a week or two if I need the client hours but I am not okay with much more than that.

Sorry, I don't mean to sound so negative. But I just needed to vent. I just needed to put the words to paper and hopefully give my brain some relief. At least until the next time I start ruminating about it and can't stop. Ha ha! I sound like one of my clients!

Bummed

So our big decision was regarding a house. It had exactly what we needed & the location was pretty good too. Still in our neighborhood but on a better street. The thing was we were going to have to give our house back to the bank in order to move. We weren't thrilled about that but the house was a foreclosure with very little to no work that needed to be done to it and we would have to act fast. So we made an offer and waited. And waited, and waited. We finally got a call Friday that our offer was not accepted. Bummer. Apparently there were several offers. But on the bright side we don't have to deal with the stress of giving back the house. The bad side is we must continue to live squashed into our tiny house with the prospect of it taking MONTHS to sell our house. I know God has something better in store for us but now I have to be patient! Augh!

Decisions Decisions

Aagh! We have a HUGE decision to make over the next day or two. Somewhat life changing. Praying about obviously. But there is so much uncertainty. I'll update when we have an answer. In the mean time any prayers would be greatly appreciated.
