Blue Tuesday

Here is a little accomplishment I am celebrating - I went to Whole Foods last night to pick up a few things. It was late. I had just seen my friend in the hospital and had 1 beer with her husband. I DID NOT succumb to buying a sweet. I seriously considered it - I checked out the cakes and cookies and chocolates, but in the end I said no to myself. The fact is I really didn't want it, I wasn't really interested in having a sweet. I had some sweet earlier in the day - chocolate covered peanuts - so I didn't need more. I am proud of myself that even though I tempted myself by checking out the goodies, in the end I just didn't bother.

So, why blue today - well it is gray in NYC today - I am worried about my friend in the hospital - recovery isn't going to be as easy as we thought. I did a lot of walking this past weekend and I am still sore and tired. I did get a good night's sleep but I wanted to stay home today and do the chores I didn't have a chance to to this past weekend and just catch up a little. It gets me down sometimes being single and having to everything. I know not to be too hard on myself but when I get tired, I tend to feel this more keenly. The tired being combined with my friend in the hospital is bringing me down a little today.
