Thanks, Carrie and Anna!
So, I didn’t make my goals this week, but I tweaked my back super bad on Tuesday, so that’s my excuse. However today we’re on massive housecleaning detail, and I’m definitely breaking a sweat. We’ve scrubbed dishes, cupboard doors, drawers and handles, dining chairs and barstools, swept and are now mopping the floors.
I will try to exercise this next week, and I think I’m a couple weeks from getting my elliptical, finally. That’s very exciting.
I’m thinking about doing a sugar fast again from Halloween to Thanksgiving like I did a number of years before my pregnancy with Clark, in which I would have starved to death without dairy and sugar. That was pretty much all I could keep down.
Anyone want to join me? If some of you are doing it, maybe it’ll strengthen my resolve.
How was your week?

Hey Laura, sorry to hear that you tweaked your back, but I wish you and your family lots of luck with the housecleaning binge! I’m sorry I missed your text the other day; I got it the next morning, but never got a chance to call you back. I’d say next week, but I 1) got a job at a yarn store (more in a sec) and 2) am out of town at a wedding Thursday through Saturday, so…
The yarn store job pretty much happened overnight; I applied Thursday, got a call that evening, had my interview Friday, and then had my first (training) shift from 12 pm to 8 pm today. I’ll be working Monday through Wednesday, 11 am to 8 pm (joy) and I’m not really liking it. The people are OK, but I don’t really feel like I know enough about knitting/yarn/gauge to really “work” there. We’ll see. It’s nice to have a job again.
It’s pouring rain here.

Funny you ask if someone wants to join you in your sugar fast. I was thinking to myself the other day that I wanted to do that this year. I was also thinking how unbelievably hard that would be for me. If I’m not the only one, I bet I could do it. My body so needs to get off sugar for awhile.
