I'm Happy Today

That was a quick turn in attitude, she said! Wha happened??

Well, I'm working again thanks to the good folks who keep Michigan records. I put in a rush request to get my birth certificate and thankfully it came today. Of course I had to pay almost $70 to get it but it was totally worth it to get back to work so quickly.

I had my first cheat food dream last night. That's supposed to happen early in the Whole30 process so I'm a little late to the party. The amazing thing is that for years and years I rarely remembered my dreams. But this time I knew I was dreaming and remembered it. I was eating M&M's that tasted like mint chocolate chips. Yum. And I didn't feel a bit guilty about it when I woke up. Probably because I knew I was dreaming. It's getting easier to put meals together, as long as I make sure I have enough food in the house. That's been the biggest thing for me to figure out so far...how much veggies I need to buy so that I don't run out by mid-week. I'm trying to buy a new veggie every week. This week it was Swiss chard. I've cooked it like spinach and used it in salads. It's not bad, just kind of boring.

PT will be done next week, thank god. I'm getting tired of going, although I did learn some great exercises that I'll keep doing. The shoulder is much better but still gets twingy in certain positions. I wouldn't rule out needing surgery at some point down the line to clean things out in there. But I think I've gotten it strong enough at this point and will get it stronger so I can put off surgery until I decide it's time to do it.
