Yeah, I know - it's early AM on the 17th as I write. Once again, I missed midnight, and I'll prolly hear about it if Boss ever gets his eyes on my blog. (Along with all the days I missed when we were all so worried about granddad originally, but maybe I can skate on those. Not likely, but a spanky gal just HAS to try!)
Granddad hasn't changed. He's a bit better than he has been, as much as he hates being in the nursing home. It does seem to help him, though I can't help but wonder if it's not the last rally before the end, as so often happens with the elderly or extremely ill. But at least the phone can now be answered by the machine again, meaning all those pesky telemarketers can now talk to the machine if they talk at all. But Granddad hates the nursing home. However, it's better for him than the house with Gramma. She's almost his age, and has very bad rhematoid arthritis, which has twisted her fingers. She just can't take care of him anymore, even with help from the VNA gals. In the home, Granddad gets his meals regular, in forms that he can feed himself. This means he gets to retain some of his dignity, and my Granddad is a VERY dignified person (what else can you expect from a retired Baptist minister?) Sure, he's into Depends, because he can barely move on his own, so he doesn't always get to the bathroom in time, but at least he can be comfortable and be watched 24/7 until the time comes that his body just gives out.
Boss feels so bad for me right now with all I'm going through. We talked recently on the phone about everything, and I couldn't help it - I broke down and bawled, after I promised myself I wasn't going to. Yeah, he noticed. We both wish so much that things would change so we could be together, but right now we don't know how or when. It's so hard to wait, I just want the waiting over with so bad.
We couldn't talk much tonight - poor darling has a sinus headache from the goofy "summer" weather running through here lately, plus all the overtime he's doing this week has him pretty well wiped and here it is only Tuesday night. I worry so much about him sometimes, but things right now just can't be helped. Someday, I can but hope.
At least we are planning a little time together soon if his vacation time comes up like he's expecting it to. It won't mean much time together, but it will mean a few days of love for us to spend together, and lots and lots of spankings for me. *grin* Though I'm not sure whether to say yippee at last! or oh crap at last! Either way, I'm bound to end up with a sore bum and won't that be spankerific?
The click exchanges are taking off - I'm getting around $2.00 a day from that now! Not a living income, but better than nothing. And one of the companies I've bought several of DD's workbooks from asked me if I wanted to be a dealer for them. I'd written them to tell them how much I like their stuff, and they wrote me back and asked. So natch, I said sure, send me info. I'll see if I can pre-sell some stuff and then order it, because there's no way I can come up with $500 for an order plus the shipping PLUS 3 trade references and a bank reference in order to get credit with them. Eeek. But - if I work at it like I have with the click exchanges, it's likely to be a little bit of chump change in my pocket, which is also nice.
It hasn't been that long a day for me, but I'm really tired. Partly what I ate today, and partly the fact that I WALKED about 4 miles today!! What did I eat? Some things that were okay, some that weren't, some that I should have had less of.
I'm going to go back to posting daily as much as I can, if nothing else to post my diet and exercise, and calories, both intake and possible burn. It doesn't look good for today - I definitely need to quit eating so much and exercise more. Today, I burned a few more calories than I took in - whoooooppeeeeeee.
I ate:
1/2 cup dry cocoa puffs cereal for a snack - 60 calories, 5 fat
a small reeses peanut butter cup blizzard (which I was good and didn't finish - only ate 2/3s!) - 393 calories, 144 fat from the 2/3 I ate
3 slices leftover pizza, one vegetarian, two pepperoni and black olive - 539 calories, 160 fat (eeek!)
half a bag of movie theater butter microwave popcorn - 85 calories, 54 fat (no more movie theater butter popcorn!!!!)
Total - 1077 calories (the magic 1100 calorie limit, wooo!!), but 363 calories were from fat, for a fat percentage of about 33.71%. Well above where I should be - which is 30% or less. Bad Cameo, bad girl!! But at least I stayed within my calorie limits. And I burned today (yesterday too, as I walked then, too!!). Masturbating twice burned 30 calories, 8 hours of general sitting around doing a lot of nothing but crocheting, reading, watching TV, and goofing off on here - 712 calories, and 4 miles of walking in an hour's time, a whopping 445 calories! Total burned - 1187 calories. Net loss - a whole 110 calories. I gotta watch more what I eat and keep the walking up. If I can get out once a day, that's a good THIRD of my calorie burn a day that I need to get done! Maybe if I keep taking the time to record every single bite I take, and every single thing I do, I'll see more results. Oh yeah - weight yesterday morning - 196. Definitely gotta work on that, as I know my blood pressure is not good with the extra pounds on me. Burn, baby, burn.
