Happy MLK day.

I finally heard about my labs. Of course, the phone call came while I was in the shower this morning 🙄 . They left a message that it was normal, but I called back to get the actual numbers. Since I am paying full price on these labs tests, I want every single number in my hot little hands! I have the copies now as well. I am normal in all categories. Not even low-normal, but normal-normal. I spent a lot of the weekend reading up on the thyroid and I thought for sure with symptoms that I have that there would be the diagnosis of that, but at least blood test wise, it appears fine. A lot of perimenopausal symptoms – yay….not.
No anemia. No diabetes either (yippee!!). So, that now leaves going to the eye doctor and see what they say. That appointment is on Tuesday. Hope *they* have an answer for me. I don’t like walking around with red eyes. They don’t bother me, thank goodness. They just look funny.
Also, for those that didn’t see on Facebook, the photographer that did the photo shoot for the First For Women article posted some of the shoot pics on her blog. You can see them here
Funny how just the way you stand or the outfit you have on can made a difference. I was not comfortable in the gold top, although other people liked it and you can tell. I swear I look heavier in that top even wearing the same pants LOL! The other 2 outfits I loved and it shows! Flared pants are a short curvy woman’s best friend!!
My eats were really not exciting today. I ate well, which felt good to get focused again. I did do some stress eating as I mentioned before, plus football snacks!
Dinner was good, though, and came out with a yummy looking shot.
The chicken is topped with Laughing Cow and hot sauce in an attempt to get warm. Didn’t work for long, though.
John and I decided to brave the cold and go out for wi-fi time. We both have our computers here LOL!
Yeah, I brought my own grapes. This is the new Blonde roast from Starbucks. I will give it a thumbs up. It doesn’t have the charred taste that their other blends have, which is quite nice. Gives it much more depth of flavor.
I hope I can make it to the gym tomorrow. We have snow expected tonight and a messy commute, so will see. Hopefully an answer for my eyes as well.
