about getting from point A to point B in the most interesting ways possible

If you're a large woman in America, your whole life is an opportunity to feel self-conscious, embarrassed, resentful and way too big. You can hide in the corner or on the couch, you can go to therapy, or you can put on your lycra bike shorts and get out there and move.

back on the horse permalink

So, I'm back on the horse. Is the horse going the right way? Who knows.

I had a cheerful entry to write today where I rode into work and it was chilly and sunny, where I ate my fruit and felt great, where I sat in the sun to eat my lunch, and I had these moments where I felt like my salad and my soup were just so incredibly delicious.

But this afternoon has been stressful. I've managed to bring the server down several times, which is just one of those things you don't want to do. It would happen, and I'd feel the adrenaline, my throat closing, my blood pressure rising.

Take me back to my Happy Land!

Things have been really good, though, this afternoon excepted. We made the Houston trip without incident, and yes, I gave in to Tex-Mex. I still ate a pile of fruit and salad, and I gained 5 pounds. All in all, I can't be upset.

So now I'm back to eating good, plant-based mostly. I want to get back to feeling good.

Man, I'm sorry for your day. I don't work with computers, servers, etc but my husband does and days like that flippin' traumatize him. He comes home and nearly goes straight to bed. I hope you soon start feeling the benefits of getting back into the fruits and veggies. That part is nice.
