Day 54
6:00 am - hit snooze
6:15 am - hit snooze
6:30 am - hit snooze
6:45 am - hit snooze
7:00 am - nothing... nothing... nothing...
7:15 am - OH CRAP!
That's how it all began.
"Tumble outta bed and stumble to the kitchen. Pour myself a cup of ambition. Yawnin and stretchin and tryin to come to life. Jump in the shower and the blood starts pumpin. Out on the streets...The traffic starts jumpin. And folks like me on the job from 9 to 5 " - Dolly Parton
These lyrics are from the theme of the movie 9 to 5. My favorite scene in this movie is when Lily Tomlin "accidentally" puts rat poison in her boss' coffee. I could've used some rat poison today. I'm just sayin.
Things were going amazingly well considering my late start to the day. I was getting stuff done at work and I even managed to have a yummy lunch with my husband. It was all down hill from there. Let's just say I worked all afternoon on a project that I said last week we "shouldn't" do only to be told this afternoon that we should've done what I suggested last week. Really? Somebody bring me a Diet Coke and a Snickers! STAT!
No. I didn't succumb to the siren's call of the Snickers bar. I gritted my teeth and left the building as soon as possible. I stopped by the store and restocked on greek yogurt and picked up some fresh chicken for tonight's dinner which is cooking away in the oven right now.
Victory is mine.
Cheers!
Margaret
