Settling in; No-S; Comments?

January 17th, 2010 at 08:45 pm

I'm starting to get settled in to my new home. Slowly, I am making my room into my own. It is so nice to have space to move around without bumping into furniture. I'd say that this room is at least twice as big as my former room.

I didn't leave quite early enough to make it on time for Sabbath School yesterday. Luckily I wasn't the only one running late. Smile I mentioned to everyone that I needed a couple guys on the 23rd. Then I found out I had made a mistake -- I thought for some reason that the 23rd was a Sunday. Nope, Sunday is the 24th! So, I am going to have to call the truck place and change my reservation to the 24th. Ooops.

After church I stopped by my former landlady's to pick up my textbooks, and also see about getting some other things. She was home I think, but I didn't see her. Apparently she was not very disappointed about my leaving ... she'd already moved my stereo and toaster oven along with some other things right by my room. Oh well.

I went to the animal shelter after that, and spent a bit over two hours. There was this one dog there that I just absolutely fell in love with. It was only 8 months old, and so sweet, and so beautiful. It was adopted before I left! There was also this cat - the kind with the smushed nose - 10 years old. It's owner had died, and that's how it ended up in the shelter. It was gorgeous and so friendly/loving. My heart broke for it. Frown

My worst fear with my cat was something happening to me, and no one willing to take care of it -- part of why I bought life insurance (don't have it anymore though).

On the way home I stopped at Dairy Queen. Smile I love their blizzards.

I'm not sure what's going on, but I didn't receive notice of any replies to my previous post. I only found out I had replies when I came here today to catch up on the blogs. I also haven't been receiving notices of new comments on other people's blogs I've subscribed to.

Anyone else having that problem?

    Yep, I just came back to check ... and saw I had your three comments. Something wonky is going on.

    Thanks!

    What is No-S?

    Hi Kelly,

    No-S is a way of eating that makes so much sense! Smile You can find a good explanation of it at www.nosdiet.com But the short and plain of it: No snacks, sweets or seconds except for (sometimes) on days that begin with S.

    No-s has literally turned this majorly sweet adicted, emotional eater into someone who can bypass the junkfood 5 days a week, even in times of major stress. Like, for example the past two weeks normally would've been junk food territory for me - yet, I did not have any sweets on any day that didn't start with an S. *Major* victory for me.

    The loss is slow, but the concept is essentially eating like you would if you were trying to maintain. In other words, eating in a way you can really live with for the rest of your life. No calorie counting, no fat/carb/protein counting, no guilt! Love, love, love!

    Glad you did'nt have to run into landlady!

    Someday you will have your own place again and you can adopt your own furry friends! It won't be long!

    Wonderful that you are comfortable at your moms!
