Bad sleep, good news, one goal OWNED!

Another terrible sleep night. Six fitful hours with maybe 2 hours of actual unconsciousness. Felt like total crap all morning, but slightly better in the afternoon after a large glass of Diet Mountain Dew. When I feel exhausted and terrible I get food cravings. For me, food isn't really entertainment or comfort, it's energy so I want bad food when I feel crummy. Anyway, things are under control for the moment.

And in good news, I fit into an old pair of jeans this morning! I bought some other size 4 pants last year, but I was putting on weight so fast at that point I couldn't fit into them by the time I got around to hemming them. These are my comparison-pants. Last year I could barely get them up over my butt and there was no way I could zip them up. For the past few months I could get into them, but didn't want to wear them in public. Today, they are comfy! Go, me! I tried on some pants yesterday and the butt was all baggy and they made me look really thick in the middle so I got depressed and left the store, but I think I've been wearing pants based on how they fit my quads and really I should get them to fit my hips now. With the speedskater genetics (sans speed!) everything is going to be a bit snug in the thighs. My what big legs I have? All the better to KICK you with, m'dear!


The other news is that I finished my 6th bear in my Bear-Per-Month challenge. Which shows I can set goals and finish them, even with zero accountability, lol. Looking back I guess it was simply a matter of perseverence, breaking the goals down into steps, and consistently completing the steps as scheduled. Now they are off to Africa to hopefully bring a little comfort to AIDS orphans.
