For the last 3 days I have been making a effort to eat healthy--for me that's planned snacks, intentional veggies and small meals! No chocolate--No diet lime cola--no in between meal snacking , especially when cooking dinner! So far so good--My fridge even has a fresh supply of lettuce varieties, cut up carrors, fruit and its not going bad.
I have to tell you that today will be tough--Going to a funeral this morning--Dear friend, in fact he built the office unit I'm sitting at right now--Having issues with why God strikes down the good people--I was so sad when this family moved to Florida last year and elated when they returned in September and in the same 45 min was devasted when Scott told me he was diagnosed with ALS. Second one in our congregation in the last 3 years or so. Scott deteriorated quickly and lost his battle on Sunday. Peter is devastated--having a rough time dealing with this. DS1 asked to go to the wake after assuring us that Scott was pain free now and free. (Can't help but think that we did a great job in the accepting death department with the kids.) Why can't I be so accepting. Scott's family is doing OK--his son's Ice Hockey team arrived in force last night, his daughter wants to work at Camp Ma-He-Tu this summer and his wife is looking strong and loving that all have come to honor Scott. It'll be the quiet that will be hard--
Today will be tough in the avoiding the chocolate though--church luncheon after the funeral--we have some great cooks and bakers.--Maybe I'll make it --My DS2 is my current conscience--swimming 4 days a week and he feels good! He has even lost some and looks like his annual check-up may be good--take him back at the same weight or less than last year! So its a family affair--Although nights at the ballfield are looming--
Gotta run--DS2 has a pet sitting job before school and still needs a lunch and I need to get dressed!
