WORK IT

So I work.  A lot.  Too much.  I am so scared of my husband being laid off again, I won't quit my second job, but I'm really starting to burn out.  For those of you who don't know, my husband was laid off for 14 months, he's been back to work for 2 months, and I pray everyday that it lasts a long time.  I really don't want to go back to a life of fearing that we won't have enough money for heat, electricity, much less to keep our house.  BLAH, BE GONE BAD THOUGHTS!!!
Anyway, about working a lot, I'm just tired, and I want a break.  But, I am thankful for my second job, because it's pretty great, as far as second jobs go...
I've had a good weekend, as far as eating goes, I stayed on track, tracking everything that is.  The dinner I had Friday night, I split up into two meals, I had the rest of it tonight.  Mind you, this is huge, because the old April would've wolfed all of it down in one sitting.  The new April stopped eating eating when she was full.  EUREKA!
Tomorrow, I'm planning on doing a Valentines workout with my Bestie, who I usually spend Valentines with, along with my hubby, because her hubby is in the restaurant business and is always working for holidays.  So we spend them together.
Tomorrow, I will make great choices, I will be active, and I will work, because it brings me a much needed paycheck!

My 5 Thankfuls...
1.  The Grammy's; I'm an awards show whore!
2.  My meditation room, yeah, I got one in my house, SO cool!!
3.  Knowing that treating people the way I want to be treated, is really the best way to be.  Thanks Momma!
4.  Cyndi Lauper.  I dressed as her 3 years in a row for Halloween when I was little, just because I wanted a reason to tear my tights, wear fingerless gloves and dye my hair, when I was 8.
5.  Music.  I sing at the top of my lungs when making dinner, and my husband thinks it's cool : )

So much love to you ladies.  I am Thankful for YOU everyday!!! xoxoxo -Gallant

  4. April you have such an amazing spirit! Don't be fearful of Walt losing his job. Everything is good and it's only going to get better! I do understand though because E was laid off for 2 years and it was really tough.
