I Need Some Serious Motivation

I woke up this morning and realized how much I have to do.  I walked into the living room and saw the huge mess and nearly ran for my life. 

I still have to pull all the old trim off, paint the walls, tape around the windows, pull some more crap off the walls, and paint the baseboard.  Not to mention the ceiling.  Oy Vay!

The Painting Saga

Oh My!  Did I ever get myself into a bucket of paint here.  I took on the task and looking back, I wish I had not.  I have gotten about halfway done and need to be finished by tomorrow night.  Kathy said she is OK with it not being completely done and understands, but I promised it would be done this weekend.  I just have no where to go with all the furniture and tables and pictures.  Things are in the way and it makes it more difficult to work around it all.  I know, I know!  I am making excuses.

Sigh! It Will Be Here Tomorrow

I was getting itchy about food.  I finally ordered today.  Back on track and losing more.  It was not comfortable not losing over the last few days.  I am anxious to get back to losing.  I was nervous and afraid of putting it back on until I received my food. 

Well, it took some doing, but I made it through ok.  But still, it was not easy.  It was getting more difficult the closer I got to the end of this week.  I guess it was probably from the anxiety of running out of food and having to eat some of the regular food instead.  I hope it doesn't get that way when I go on maintenance when I lose the weight.  I wouldn't want to be full of anxiety.  God knows I am full of a lot of stuff anyway.

I went out last night to spend some time with friends who were performing at a local eatery (yes, that is me in the picture, but I wasn't playing last night).  As I sat there I noticed the food coming out of the kitchen.  Awesome dishes for sure.  But it didn't really phase me too much.  Even with the anxiety I was having it felt good to be able to resist the temptation.
Well, tonight is the night to start painting the living room.  Ugh!  It has to be done.  There is no way out of it.  Well, maybe there is.  I could say that I painted it the exact same color.  Or touched it up.  Or the color is different but with the new light bulbs it looks the same.  Hmmmm.

Picaso Needs To Come To My House

I promised my wife I would paint the living room this weekend while she is gone.  Oops!  I even had to pick out the colors.  Another oops!  So I picked out the colors that seems easiest and what looked like they would go together.  Ask me what the colors are and I will tell you that I have no clue.  Maybe I'll go back and get the actual names of the colors and let you know.
Think I might have set myself up for either failure or husband of the year award.  Oy!!
