Frustration

I couldn't bring myself to blog yesterday as I had another week of 0 pounds gone on the scale. It was pretty heartbreaking, especially since I feel I am being really good with watching calories and working out. So, after the 0 pounds down, I decided to get out a pair of jeans that had gotten too tight to wear. YEA! They fit again. I wore them out to lunch with Jani. And while I wanted to just go overboard on the lunch, I was good and ordered a salad, dressing on the side. It was a pretty small salad and the most fattening thing I think was the dressing, but I used only an ounce.

The talk with Jani was great as always. I am going to build her website for a program she wants to launch. I am excited as I am pretty sure I can use it for my capstone class for my Web Design classes. She is going to work up a sketch for me of what she has in mind and then I'll work up so different design looks in PS. I am excited to have this opportunity, and I think I'll really get into the site as she will be doing all the writing and deciding of what will be on it while I get to focus on the design elements. We're planning to get together again next week to go over some preliminary ideas.

Today was a terribly long day and part of me didn't know at one point of the day to scream or cry. First, I started the day off getting notified that I was drawn to work Labor Day. A full eight hours, so not impressed with that. I know it will be the last holiday I have to ever work in my life so I am trying to focus on that to get me through. Then a bunch of orders were messed up in the Internet error batch I work each day, so I had to through all my energy into fixing that. After I admittedly hung up on a rep over an issue that shouldn't have even been an issue, I have one last bomb dropped on me for the day - they are pushing our new website upgrade early tomorrow morning, 1 am. We got exactly 10 hours of notice. I was so frustrated and hurt and angry that they think so little of us to tell us at the last moment. I know its a team effort, but we are the backbone of getting everything to come together and it is so upsetting for them to not take note of that. So I had knots in my stomach the rest of the day... the last time they did one of these "upgrades" we ended up simply deleting 1000s of emails as we couldn't provide the tech support needed. Nor did we know what was needed. I am dreading tomorrow.

So, I came home tonight in a rotten mood and migraine number four of the week. DH was a sweetheart though and said we should go out to eat. I was all for going out and ordering the biggest plate of greasy fatty guilty food there is, but he suggested we go to Applebee's and that I keep it healthy. So I did and ordered off the WW menu, 350 calorie meal. Then I got him to spoil me just a tish more and we went to DQ, just a small hot fudge sundae though. I looked it up and its only about 250 calories, so I feel I did good for the day, ending up around 1700 calories with a special treat. And my migraine went away too. I feel a little better, but hoping for some sleep tonight. Last night was nothing but tossing and turning. Must have been a foreshadow of the day I had coming to me.
