Ugh! I forgot to turn the alarm clock on last night. I woke up promptly at 6:30 (like I have for years) and had to scramble to be out the door by 7:15. I didn't get to eat breakfast so I am consuming-gasp-a blueberry scone from Starbucks along with my non-fat iced mocha. It comes in somewhere around a cool 700-800 calories. YIKES.

One more day of Starbucks left then my prince charming will once again have the honor of preparing my morning coffee. He makes the best coffee in the universe. And it is comparatively low-cal.

So, I got the keys to the house last night, emptied out storage, got most of my excess crap out of the hotel, and stocked the fridge with bottled water and beer for moving day. I am very excited about moving back into a "normal" sub-division, and a much smaller house. So is my son, it seems. One more day of Homestead Suites and it all becomes a bad memory.....

Will I make it to the gym tonight? Hmmm.

Update: It seems I have another lesson to learn in the healthy living realm. I have been out to eat two or three times this week. I won't be able to bring my lunch on most days because I will be onsite and clients will be taking me out to lunch or I will be eating out during lunch and coming back to the client site. I had Viet Namese today. Now, how many calories are in grilled pork, vermicelli, and shredded lettuce and carrots? I'm not sure, probably not too many, but the sodium content is OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! I am sooooo thirsty right now.

So, I will need to learn how to do this healthfully and gracefully. My slacks are too tight now and they weren't this morning. I feel like I ate a little too much, but not like I used to. I'm not stuffed, but I ate more than I needed. I will have to get this under control. This will be a very difficult skill to master, but I can (and have to) do it. there are plenty of "Road Warriors" out there who maintain a perfectly normal weight. If it can be done (which I know it CAN), I can figure out how to do it.
