Although I do spend a disproportionate amount of time there.
Brian left yesterday morning to go install the timers for his irrigation system up at the property. He had some digging to do and when he called last night, he wasn’t finished yet, so he’ll be home later today.
It was hot yesterday. High nineties. Today is supposed to be hotter. Earlier I started the sprinklers, so the back yard should be good to go for the rest of the day. I’ve got the attic fans on, too, to help keep the place cool. All doors and windows are open to take advantage of the cooler air. As it warms up, I’ll start dropping shades and closing blinds.
One of the attic fans is set to start at 80°, the one over the garage. Tired of listening to it, I finally flipped the switch to turn it off last night at 10:30. It’s 63° outside right now, at 7:30 in the morning.
Yes, I believe we’re going to have a hot one today.
I know I’ve mentioned my hypnotherapy for weight loss before. Well, I’m not losing lots of weight, but I didn’t expect to. I didn’t plan on dieting at all and I’m not. As I said before, I want to change my relationship with food. To eat because I need to, not because I’m bored, sad, happy, depressed, or just because I’m not even thinking about it. I want the weight loss to be slow because I figure I’ve done the fast stuff before, lost the weight, but it came back on. So, if I’m able to move food from the friend category, I think it will help.
You know how you can get pants from the same designer, the same size, but different colors and they fit differently from color to color? I’ve got some like that. The one size fit, so I got multiples of other colors. Well, the other colors, even though the same size, are cut a little smaller. Last week, I was able to get into the next one down and I was so excited! Because I’m not counting calories, points or whatever, I’m just eating better, healthier (no urges for fast food at all) and getting on that bike five days a week. (I know that having something to watch helps there. I just finished the third season of the Sopranos. When I’m done with the Sopranos, I think I’ll start Lost. Right now, I can hardly wait to see if Janice gets her clock cleaned by the Russian and the only time I’ll watch is when I’m on the bike.)
Anyway, I believe the hypnotherapy is working for me. I’ve got more energy, I’m not taking naps, I’m not falling asleep on the sofa at night in front of the television. I’ve been staying up until 11:00 or later, because I’m just not tired. It’s amazing.
So, if you’re interested, I know Priscilla has some CDs you can buy online. The thing is you have to be good about listening to them every day, usually at bedtime and go to sleep to her voice. Now it’s her little voice undoing all those years of my little voice saying “what the hell, you only live once, eat it….eat it….” *lol*
