I am going to start out with my thankfulness theme with something I’ve been apparently lacking lately.

I have been soooo tired lately that I haven’t been making wise choices. Not only in the food realm, but in many facets of my life. I know that what I need to do is get to bed on time and somehow make my brain stop working. Problem is that I’ve been on the computer too much recently too close to bed and it’s then that I really have problems (yes, I have noticed the correlation. Typically after I’ve been playing one particular Bejeweled Facebook game, I lay in bed and can see what I’ve missed or “play the game” in my head. I try to stop myself, but until I’m actually sleeping, it doesn’t work.

I need to get back in the habit of going to bed EARLY and reading for an hour or so (and it’s not like I don’t have anything to read… I just started Twilight!) That totally helps my mind to relax. Maybe it has something to do with my eyes actually working rather than staring at a screen for hours on end.

This week is going to be different. I’ve been eating like it’s going out of style (even though I definitely know better!) and it has GOT TO STOP. When I wake up tomorrow morning, it is a new day… new adventure… and I have 13 days (I think) to try to recover and get back to goal for the month of August. If I can do that, I might still be able to salvage my goal for the year… to get another lifetime key.
