I walked with Pebbles today of course like always. Nothing really new there. We walked on post and talked while we walked. The day prior I had been telling Pebbles and Yasmin about Paul McKenna the hypnotist. I showed them a basic acupressure technique he uses or shows other how to use when they are craving something. It has to do with tapping particular points on your body, forehead, under eye, clavicle, wrist and top of hand. You tap each with 5 taps while thinking of the food you want to eat. I think so far it is working well, but it could just be my magic feather.
In the afternoon I picked up Belen and we went to the commissary. I was after milk and had picked up some fresh fruit. After walking around a bit I went to check out, in the self check out. Don't ever do this if you have a baby, a friend whose English is limited and fresh fruit.
Mason seems to be on a nursing strike. He only nurses when he wants to and I'm beginning to wonder if he's taking enough in. Additionally, he likes to pop my left nipple out of his mouth which rather hurts. For the most part he seems quite irritable so maybe he'll finally pop some teeth. I'm guessing on no since he was slobbering when his dad was here, which is 2 months today, he's still slobbering and still no sign of any teeth.
Picked Mark up from football practice today as usual. I pick him up at 6:00 or so. I sure hate it when the coaches dink around and want to talk to the guys after practice. I wonder what's so important that they tell them after EVERY practice? I mean, do the days really change that much?
I made ribs, mixed vegetables and macaroni and cheese and felt like I did ok on eating. I didn't get crazy with the mac n cheese, had a good amount of vegetables and had two ribs. While writing this I had an urge to eat a scone that's sitting in the diaper bag. I did the tap technique and although I'm still thinking about it the urge is not as strong.
I did my nails tonight. I should say I painted them.. I don't get into nails like I used to and I wish I could. I just don't have the time anymore. I'm actually surprised Mason hasn't woken up and demanded to be nursed back to sleep.
Tomorrow is Friday and tomorrow we walk and then we go to lunch. Money has been tight because we're paying off bills so I'm hesitant to go anywhere expensive. It's my choice so maybe I'll pick Elizabeth Pizza. It's close as well. This picking people up and taking them with me (because I have the carseat) is for the birds.
Additionally, today I started my quest to end my cursing. I cursed maybe 3-4 times today. I think that's a good start and I am proud of myself.
I hope to get on the scale tomorrow before I have anything to drink, I keep forgetting.
