Attitude:
Another day of spring cleaning decluttering. Today was the kids' dressers. Another day of patience wearing thin and feeling stressed to the max. If we recall, it was a day just like this that led to the cookie dough binge. Fortunately, midway through the day, I went for my workout at Curves. Took out most of my frustrations out on the circuit, re-evaluated what actually could get done in the time I had to work with the kids at home, came home, took a shower and felt much better prepared to finish up the job. Not all of the kids' rooms were decluttered over spring break, but I'm giving myself a pass. We did do a lot and we can do the rest that needs to be done on the weekends for the nest couple of weeks. As with all things in my life I go gangbusters and bite off more than I can chew, then get frustrated when it doesn't get done the way I was sure I could do it, which lowers my resistance. I need to remember a little bit at a time. This evening EB and I baked the cake for her birthday tomorrow. HHT will come home at lunch tomorrow and put it all together. It's a pirate ship. I did hear some disappointing news today. Due to lack of interest, the 6 week solution at Curves won't start on Saturday. They'll try again for June.

5 things I’m grateful for:

1. working out my frustrations instead of eating
2. sunny day
3. showers
4. leftovers
5. HHT - even after almost 14yrs of marriage, my heart still skips a beat when he's near!

5 things I did right:
1. didn't drown my feelings with food
2. worked out
3. helped the kids declutter their dressers (got rid of 4 garbage bags of clothes, etc to give to Goodwill)
4. blogged
5. wore my shoes
