What I've Eaten

I am a chocolate covered potato.

Today is the day after Easter, which means that I am eating leftovers...leftover cheesy potatoes and Hershey's chocolate, although not at the same time.  I had reheated cheesy potatoes topped with salsa for lunch and dinner.  I had the chocolate pieces in between.

I will not lie to you and say that I feel good.  I do not.  I feel bloated - probably due to the lack of fiber in my diet.  I will say that I did take Aiden for a two mile walk and plan to get to the YMCA soon.  (Derrick believes I will not make it as I would already be there if I was going.)  I believe there is still hope as I've changed my shoes and just received a text from my neighbor saying she will be going to the Y in thirty minutes!  Thank you Gretchen for saving my slug of a chocolate butt!

So back to the chocolate that I have been consuming for three days.  If only I could have one piece.  I am a chocoholic.  Specifically, a Hershey's addict.  I've been one as long as I can remember.  You see, I can have just one piece of some chocolates.  But something in my brain clicks when the Hershey's chocolate is melting in my mouth.  It's a wonder that I haven't turned into a chocolate bunny by now.

As for me...I'm heading to fitness center at the YMCA.

5 Days Post Haylee

It has been five days.  The grieving process has begun for myself and many around me.  It's a  beast this thing called grief.  It attaches to or attacks each of us differently.  When my mother lost my sister Barb, she named her grief George.  I think I too will have a name for my grief.  I've been thinking about Clarence.  I always loved the character Clarence Odbody.    He was only doing what was right and tried to have a little fun along the way.  He kept things simple.  I like simple.  I won't mind if Clarence hangs around awhile. "Strange, isn't it? Each man's life touches so many other lives, and when he isn't around he leaves an awful hole, doesn't he?

Responsible

Responsible: having an obligation to do something, or having control over or care for someone, as part of one's job or role. I am responsible for many things whether I am at work or at home.  I don't always like it.  Sometimes, I do not want to be responsible.  I want to slack off or not care or just be the opposite of responsible.

Vaccine Day!

Image
Today I was able to get my 1st dose of the Pfizer - Covid 19 vaccine. Our county vaccinated 8,000 teachers in two days! It was very well run. I was in and out in less than 30 minutes including the 15 minute wait afterwards. It's been about five hours since and my arm is a bit sore now. I can't remember the last time I got a vaccine. Probably a tetnus shot. --- Those really hurt. Anyway, I'm glad to do my part to get this pandemic under control. As I look at my calorie tracker for the day: 1750 calories food and 59 oz. water.
