First day at work this week - sorta

Honestly planned on going to work today.  Bad tummy night - ulcers probably too. Lots of pain. Subsided today, so will give it a go tomorrow.

Today was a non-scale victory! My -fit pretty good 36w jeans? I can make a fist and slide between my body and the jeans, at the waist. Fresh from the wash, too! :)

Today's thoughts centered around love and our interpretations thereof.  

"...the enchancement of unsatisfied desire produces results which the humans can be made to mistake for the results of charity. Avail yourself to the ambiguity in the word "love": let them think they have solved by Love problems they have in fact only waived or postponed under the influence of their enchantment. While it lasts you have your chance to forment the problems in secret and render them chronic" - Screwtape Letters - CSLewis.       

Today's menu

Very interesting and sad how people so often excuse-away problems or simply 'hope' problems go away.  Hope will not get you through your heart's pain.   We excuse what we need by calling what we need merely wants; because - after all, that person LOVES me. And "love is all we need!".

Own your needs. Make them your goals.  And never stop running towards them.
