Morning Coffee

Good morning, Amanda.

Not a lot of time before I run off to the gym, but enough to drink a cup of coffee and write a paragraph or two. It was so great to talk to you yesterday; you really do seem to be doing well. If you were to ask me to describe it, I would say that besides being more positive, you are also more hopeful, less mired. And it wasn't just what you said, it was how you said it. You're voice was lighter. Like you've gotten out from under some of that negativity/feeling overwhelmed/feeling so tired all the time. I say this to congratulate you and encourage you to keep up the good work. I hope it has that effect.

After the gym I'll talk to D, and then have breakfast. I don't treat myself every Sunday in summer time, but today I think I will. It's cloudier than expected so I'll probably stay in and get to that housecleaning I mentioned--treating myself to a nice breakfast first will make me resent it less and will keep me from mindless snacking. I can't remember the last time I had mimosas but I still haven't decided if they'll be part of my day...All that OJ and me wasn't do well in my bathing suits; it was one of my summer modifications.

Other than that, just looking forward to the Food Network Star finale tonight. In fact, I can't wait!

I hope you have a fun day planned...maybe you'll spend it in Mac heaven?...

Love you,
Barb
