I did really well this week. I lost 3.4 pounds. I am up to 19.2 now. I was really strict this week and ate alot more fruit.

Today was almost a NSD. We had to get gas for the lawnmower.

I called the dealership to find out if they had a chance to look at my car yet. He told me it would be Monday before he got to look at the car. I guess it will be NSD's all weekend. Hard to spend money when you can't go anywhere. I might have her take me to Food Lion to get more orange juice but that is about it.

I called my ISP this morning to fix our internet. It keeps going out. 52 minutes later they say it is fixed.

My mom is on her way to pick me up to go to the eye doctor. I am going to pack a PB&J to take for lunch in case I get hungry. My mom would probably buy me lunch but it is my weigh in day and I don't want to eat something heavy for lunch.

Everything has been going so smoothly I knew it was too good to be true.

I left work today to go to the UPS store to ship some packages. I usually leave the car running but it was taking so long that I went and turned the car off. When I was finally done I went out and my car wouldn't start. The nice guy at the UPS store kept trying to make it start but it just wasn't getting any power. The cable that connects to the battery is not making a connection. I am really hoping that it is just a connection problem. I had to have it towed(thank goodness for roadside service!) to the dealership in Ellijay because I don't know any mechanics there. Hopefully they won't scalp me to badly. They were cheaper than my regular mechanic when I had the engine replaced. Keeping my fingers crossed.

My mom came and picked me up and brought me home. She asked if I wanted to stop and get some food somewhere. I told her no and told her about my challenge. She went to BK and got her a sandwich and I got nothing. I came home and made spaghetti and garlic bread.

Tomorrow I have to take my mom to the eye doctor in Cleveland tomorrow. They are going to dilate her eyes and she won't be able to drive home. I get to sleep in since her appointment isn't until 2:00.

I have started my totals over for the new month.

PS...my mouse on my computer just quit working! What else can happen today?

I did well yesterday. The only thing I spent money on was to fill up my gas tank. It was only $33, $41.75 less than budgeted for. That money goes back into the budget to help with the shortfall I will have this month.

I called the sheriff yesterday and he was able to serve the renters yesterday. So they have 7 days from yesterday to respond or get out. On the 8th day I can have him removed from the house. So anxious for this to be over.

I brought some pineapple and an apple for a snack today. And I brought a PB&J for lunch. Today won't be a NSD though because I bought cigarettes this morning. Seems I am not quite ready to tackle quitting yet. I also have my car insurance coming out of my checking account today as well as a loan payment that was mailed today.
