Happy Valentine's Day!

I got fwowers. :o)  They're too big of a bunch to fit in our vases, so we had to put them in a giant beer mug, lol.

I have been trying to eat fruit rather than chocolate or other sweets lately. It's made a bit easier because blueberries are on sale all over the place, for some reason. Nice ones, too. I need to cut back on sushi, though, for sure. :o(  I started counting today, and I had sushi for lunch, and it put me pretty high up in calories even though it didn't seem like that much. Salmon sashimi is higher than I thought. Who knew? It seems strange, but I guess salmon has fat in it.

I say I "started" counting because I was pretty high up anyway, and then my husband brought home a turtle cheesecake along with the flowers (see? saboteur!), and it's Valentine's Day, so I thought I would celebrate with said cheesecake, and...well. I need to stop sucking.

I've been feeling slightly more motivated lately. Even to leave the house, I feel more motivated. And to work on my course, although I haven't been able to bring myself to do it yet. I still haven't heard from my new shrink or anyone in his office. I hope I'm not left adrift now that my former shrink has gone on mat leave. I guess I could call them if it looks like it's heading that way.

I bought some new jeans, yoga pants, and an exercise top at Costco on the weekend. I wore the jeans today, and they make me feel good. :o) I like that feeling. That helps me feel motivated, too. I'm working up to start doing Richard DVDs on my own again. This time I won't let myself get dependent on anyone doing them with me! I'm a little scared, though--I'm much more out of shape than I was last year, and I found them fairly difficult then. But I did it before, so I can do it again.
