Okay, it was a better week. I was able to track everything, and I got in a few workouts. I also ate in most night, and packed my own lunches. Controlling most of my own meals always helps keep me on track. It's also better for my budget. I am glad to have lost what I gained. Now, I just need to keep losing. I have faith, and some new recipes to help vary my diet and curb some of my cravings.
School was fine this week, a bit hectic, but good overall. All my classes started new units, and they're moving through them pretty easily so far. I am looking forward to my seniors' classes this Friday since they are making horror films to show in class on Halloween :) I am hopeful that they will turn out well for the most part. And since they're both at the end of the day, it might be a way to keep me and the kids from losing our sanity on a Halloween/Friday/Jeans Day.
On Monday, I went with a few friends to see "Aida" at SBA- they did such a good job! Tuesday, CYA had trivia at Huey's, and while we didn't place, we had a lot of fun. Wednesday, I lead Bible Study since Matt was out of town. Thursday, Sean and I had a fun, festive night in complete with gumbo, pumpkin pie fudge, and "The Nightmare Before Christmas." Friday, we had Kristin's baby shower after school. We had a very nice time, and she got some really cute items for Baby Girl McDouble. That evening, I went to the Wicked Ways Haunted House with Angela a friend of hers who was visiting. It was really good! I have some students in it, and it was so neat to see them doing something like this. After that, we went to Earnestine and Hazel's because Angela wanted to see if it was actually haunted. It seemed to me to be a bit of a dive... and in need of a few repairs...
Yesterday, I went over to Mom's mid-morning to clean and help her get ready for her Oktoberfest party. I stayed for awhile catching up with Mom and making sure as much was ready for the party as possible. Then, I came home to rest for awhile before the party. That evening, I got Kerry, and we went to my Mom's to visit and enjoy all the tasty treats! There was a nice group for dinner. We had plenty of laughs throughout the evening. And everyone loved all of Mom's autumnal decorations! Today, I went to Mass, and then I helped with the Ministry Fair on behalf of CYA. Then, I went to clean Memaw's apartment before finally getting my pumpkin to carve later this week.
Now, I am making sure I'm ready for all of my classes this week while enjoying all the Halloween movies and TV shows :)
