Holy Crap! Still Alive!

Two posts in one week, gimme a break!  This week has been moving slowly!  Well, work-wise anyway, the evenings fly by me.

1.  Let me tell you about my biggest fear at the moment.  My biggest fear is that I'll die alone, I'll never lose weight, my selling condo neighbors will sell to party animals, my mom will find my blog.  I'm not kidding!!!  Facebook used to be awesome.  Then my mom joined.  Sh*t.  She comments on EVERYTHING, whether or not it even has to do with your post, status, picture, etc.  Random.  Then I try Twitter.  "mom is now following you on twitter".  Sh*t.  I don't really catch on to Twitter so whatever, I don't tweet, she gets nothing.  Then I find Pinterest.  Loving it, having fun. "Mom is following all of your boards on Pinterest!"  Sh*t.  Now what I have here is a triple sh*t situation.  A sh*t hat trick if you will.  So now my interest in Pinterest has waned. Hehehe - interest in Pinterest, I just heard that in my head. What do I have left?  My blog.  If she finds it, it's getting deleted.  Either that, or I have to secretly email or contact all my followers and tell them where I've moved to.  I have hopefully removed all traces of myself from it.  My last name is not on it.  My real email address for everyday life is not on it . . . ANYMORE.  I made the mistake of accepting an invitation to Google+ and logged in using my normal email address and I go into the profile and I'm about to add people to my stupid circles and I notice that Google, all powerful, taking over the world, Google, added my blog for the world to see.  Thanks but no thanks. I have about  five people in my real life that know about this blog.  I promptly deleted Google+ and then changed my email address associated with the blog.  What the heck is with everything linking to facebook too??  Would you like to log in using facebook?  NO!!!!  Anyhow, Mom, please please please don't find my blog.  No one in my family knows it exists so she shouldn't know to look for it.  Fingers crossed.

2.  I'm hooked on Downton Abbey.  Thanks to Cely at Running off the Reese's.  The folks in the USA can get season one on Netflix but apparently Netflix hates Canadians because it doesn't show up in our menu.  You'll have to wait till Feb 22 when Canada starts showing season one on VisionTV immediately followed by season two or you know, resort to other resources.
Oh my goodness!  No wonder I'm single!  I wear black ALL. THE. TIME.  Sigh.  And I don't look anything like sweet Lady Mary.

3.  You'd think with all the TV I watch that I could get my PVR under 72% full.  Just an observation.

4.  I'm working on a meal plan.  I have to get back into packing lunches and planning meals.  When I'm in the mood to cook, I love it.  When I'm not in the mood to cook, I'm in a drive-thru.  The first time I lost weight on WW, I made sure that a few suppers and a few packed lunches per week were either super easy & quick or pre-made.  Now I'm going to refer to her again . . . Sarah posted about her lunches and that's what got me thinking about how I used to do things and that's when it was working!!    Sarah reminds of who I was when it was all working!  When I was running, when I was cooking, when I was 50 pounds lighter.  Success and motivation are starting to feel closer.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go work on lowering my PVR percentage.  But not before I leave you with some pictures of my niece.  I've had to look at enough baby pictures in my freaking lifetime, so now I'm using my niece as payback.  Doesn't hurt that she's the cutest fricking kid I've ever seen.  And she has my eyes.  And eyelashes.  And this is probably what I look like waking up in the morning too.  But no one is there to take 92 pictures of me in two hours.  Probably a good thing. :)

    1. Hahaha! I so hope she doesn't too!!! But I swear, if she does, I'm hiding it and starting over and contacting people via a comment on their blog or an email if it's listed.

  4. Awwww such cute pictures!!

    This post made me laugh too. I was SOOOO afraid my family would find my blog. I made the mistake of commenting on a family member's blog with my blog email info...so I had to call them and ask them to please delete my comment. They were so understanding and never visited my blog until I invited everyone. Now it's no problem. But there are still people I don't want to see it!!

    1. I hate that moment when you realize what you've done as well. When I saw that blog link right out there on Google+, I had a heart attack. I even googled my name after to make sure nothing shows up!
