Bender

Well this summer has been a bender....at least since the 4th of July. Bad food choices, beer, wine, little water, too much sleep, not enough sleep....a basic lack of any boudary regarding health. I am announcing it's over. No more Burger King, evening cocktail, and tirps for ice cream. NO more staying up until midnight reading. No more sleeping in until 8:30. Mama can't take it anymore. My body feels it - my poor face all puffy and full of salt and sugar. My joints all sore from the lack of care. I am 41 and the Bender must end.
Even my brain....Yes, I have been reading a lot. So that is great for the brain. But as far as INFO goes...I am weak. I haven't listened, watched or read news in months. If it's not on the Yahoo home page, I don't know about it. Unless you count The Daily Show.
Starting today I am back on my vitamins. Starting today back to drinking at least 64 ounces of water. Starting today I am back to limited those carbs. Starting today I am up by 6:30 (okay well starting tomorrow on this one) and to sleep by 10:30. I mean I am a gal of boundaries - well at least I operate better when they are in place. So this savage lifestyle I have been living just must end. Even the kids - sleep, no sleep, Popsicles, ice cream. Their poor souls.
Now saying all this, I do have 2 exceptions.
Thursday night we are eating at Maggionos for Juncal's 17th birthday.
And I MUST get one of this Girl Scout cookie Blizzards from DQ I keep hearing about on the radio.
