Moving Along

The day is moving by quickly, luckily.  Midmorning, I decided to follow up on the success of yesterday’s am snack by indulging in some fruit, in this case, a pear.  Worked wonders for my tummy.

But I was still super hungry by lunchtime.  Today I had the same sandwich as yesterday (1 [...]

Tense…

So today is pretty tense at work.  All I can think about is how badly I want to get to Mike’s house and watch Gossip Girl with him tonight.  All right, enough wining, and on to the food.
Last night, I got some hunger pangs a couple of hours after dinner, so I snacked on an [...]
