WOW!  I am SLACKING on the blogging.  Shame on me.  We have another snow day here in Arkansas today and this time, it is WELL deserved!  I awoke to 2″ of snow that was not predicted and it literally snowed big, fat flakes ALL DAY long!!  At 5:30 when I was out, there was about 7″.  The snow has stopped as of right now, but another wave of it will come through overnight, about midnight, and go through the morning. 

Apparently I am now a weathergirl! 

My work was closed today and I have mixed feelings about it.  We have been told that a financial institution cannot be closed more than 3 days in a row, however, we were closed this weekend and today.  Now this concerns me because tomorrow will be WAY worse than today was.  The original plan this morning was a 2 hour delay and I was 1/2 way in before I got the call that we were closing for the day.  I feel like we should have just gone in, even for just a few hours, so that we wouldn’t have to worry about tomorrow.  Well, time will tell…

On to HAPPIER things: It has been about 3 weeks now that I have been eating HEALTHY!  Yay me!  I have only “cheated” twice and it was for two meals.  One was french fries at Chilis and the other was Friday when I had some MUCH DESERVED cheese dip and a margarita after work.  Other than that, I’m healthy all the way.  Even today, snowed in, I have stuck to it!!!  I am way excited about, too.  Almost an empowering feeling now.  I am not so stupid to think that I will not slip up again, but I am trying to limit it to one meal a week.  I figure if I drop about 30 pounds, I will be right back where I was when I lost almost a 100 pounds 5 years ago.  I am not doing the same diet.  That one was WAY too strict, but this time, I am just trying to be sensible.  I was super excited today to learn that 31 Frito Chili Cheese chips are 160 calories.  I have been craving them, so I adjusted my eating all day so I could have them with dinner.  GOODNESS they were good!!!  But that is more fat than I have eaten in a while, so I may regret it later, but at least I didn’t go over in calories!!! 

Another healthy for the soul thing I am keeping up with: I am reading the Bible in a year.  Now, I have tried this before but I always slacked off.  But now it is February 8, and I have been at it for over one month!  I started on January 1.  I chose the Max Lucado Grace for the Moment One Year Bible and I really am enjoying it.  I am really going to try to get it done this year!!!

What are you doing for you that involves healthy living?  Watching your foods?  Something for your soul?  Share with me!

Happy wandering!!!
