today i am thankful...
1. that my baby boy loves to talk on the phone. it's a bit hard being away from my baby but i am rather enjoying myself. one thing that is making it easier is that he called several times yesterday and just jabbered away on the phone. i don't know if he gets so excited because it's me or because it's he just likes phones but i like to think that it's the former.
2. for feeling good. lately i have been horrible about eating dairy. when i do, i feel miserable, bloated, tons of abdominal gas pressure which pushes out my ribs and hurts. it's not fun at all. shawn commented to me the other day that i really am not doing a good job in my avoidance of dairy. yeah, yeah, i know, i know... i do great when i'm at home and have control over what's in my kitchen and pantry - i'm good at restricting myself at the store. i don't have great self control when things are put in front of me. monday was halloween and remi got lots of chocolate, fruitie tootsie rolls, caramel popcorn, etc... good thing he doesn't realize that that candy was his because i've eaten it all and have paid the price by feeling miserable. yuck! and then i got a slice of chocolate cream pie and, rather than throw it away, i brought it home for shawn. he didn't eat it and didn't eat it and didn't eat it... so i had to! it was screaming my name! remi and i shared it and it was good. and then i felt miserable again. you'd think i'd learn. the good news is i've eaten everything that shouldn't be in my home and don't have to worry anymore. i now feel good. no pressure, no bloating, no sick-to-my-stomach. just good.
