Buffy ,'Empty Places'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I would try eating bright yellow, it sounds like it might be effective! I don't know where I'd get some, though.
I had to look up Take 5 - it has pretzels? That sounds amazing. Huh, it's pretty recent, I didn't realize we were still getting new candy bars from Hershey's this century. I mean, of course we are, they aren't going to stop developing new products, but it still somehow surprises me.
That sounds like an excellent use of candy, Maria!

I am drinking coffee with chicory this morning, and wishing I was back in New Orleans with my people.
It snowed on me in the parking lot. Winter is here.

It should be. He's on a 16-hour shift today. The medic is on a 12-hour. And if there's any left, two different folks will be on that same schedule tomorrow.
I ate a ridiculous lunch of all the fried things Monday, and it propelled me back to counting calories. I am down 4 lbs on the year (down 7 since spring when I had gained) and I want to keep on that track. If I get down 15 lbs from where I am now I think I will schedule a consultation about a reduction. It will depend if a 15 lb loss does anything to reduce them.
Yesterday I did well. On track today to do well. Increasing water intake seems to really help.
In Mac news, 2 days of being decent mood wise and mostly compliant, that's it. Last night back to doing no chores, not getting off computer when asked, up past bedtime. Didn't get himself up this morning, no talking to me on way to school.
I've contacted therapist, we are setting up appt.
Can I say "ugh"? I just want to say "ugh."
Ugh.
There, I feel better now.
msbelle, I'm so sorry he's being difficult. You are a fabulous mom--the pinkest even--and I wish that things end up on an even keel sooner rather than later.
Woo hoo, reduction!
Yeah 14-16 apparently just sucks wrt parental relations. Internet is getting turned off at our house at 7:30 until further notice. I'll turn I back on once he is in the shower and his phone is in living room getting charged. I want so badly for him to be responsible, but it is not yet in the cards wrt time, electronics, or money.
