Just another Thursday

I know I have been talking an awful lot about being bored at work, and I am sure that no one really wants to hear it, so feel free to not read this entry if you are, in fact, tired of my complaining.
I was off the past two days because my MIL had some appointments, and I don’t have too many other options for during-the-day care. However, we have recently found out I may have to try and find some.
My MIL has to have surgery at the end of June. This means many things, and creates many questions. First, it means my temping woes will be over as of that date, since I will have no care for Josh at that point. This does NOT bother me, as I am sure you can understand. I am a big fan of belt tightening instead of trying to find Josh somewhere ELSE to go during the day. Going to grandmas is something he is used to, and enjoys. I am not going to throw a big disruption at him a mere few weeks before the biggest disruption of all arrives…. I can’t WAIT for that disruption… I just want to meet my new little guy already, but I digress… The surgery is on MIL lung, and after testing, they are unsure if what they are seeing is a carcinoma. This is ridiculously scary right now. My hubby is a wreck, understandably so. We are all very concerned. What is the surgery going to reveal? How long will her recovery be? What will be the next step? There are so many questions, and MIL is not terribly forthcoming. Of course, it IS her business, however, we want to be available to help her, and we need info to do that.
Anyway, it’s just another notch in the crappy-few-months belt.
So, yes, at the moment, I am at work. I was so concerned about being off the last few days, and I come in and I am still searching for things to do. But, my one saving grace is I am forcing myself to get up and walk. That’s a good thing, and I am not feeling so swollen yet.
I have been very proud of my eating, especially yesterday. Being home can sometimes cause a lot of crappy eating, and I stayed really on track. I also got a ton of housework done, AND I didn’t let Ant and I succumb to fast food after going to rehearsal. I made sure we both ate before hand, and that we went right home and had a snack after. Really, really proud of myself, because Ant even asked if I wanted to stop someplace and I help firm and told him no. I think he was a little disappointed, but he got over it.
I am starving, and I am trying to hold out on lunch so that after lunch seems shorter. Trying to hold on till 1, but I don’t think it’s gonna work… It’s so strange how hunger changes from one day to the next. Eating similar things at similar times, you’d think the body would get used to it and be happy with it, but nooooo…. Ok. I can’t talk myself out of it anymore. I am going to have lunch. Today I brought the makings of my crustless pizza – mozz cheese, homemade sauce and turkey pepperoni. I throw it all together and nuke it. It’s really yum. I get some strange looks, because frankly it sometimes looks like I am eating pepperoni soup, but I don’t care!
I’m off!
