day 71

15th nov 07
hi Blog! First of all thanks to everybody who comments on the blogs, I really look forward to reading the comments it helps me to feel inspired!!
Having said that its been a day from hell..OH in a not happy mood due to work stuff and for some reason I end up shouldering most of that and wandering round at home trying to make it all right again...and feeling very stressed!! We discussed a bit of this last night at class and about the 'superwoman' messages that feminism gave us in the 70s that we still carry around. So I have to work full time in a difficult job, and look after the children, and the house, and cook and wash and iron etc etc!! Stepford wives is nothing on it!Anyway it is all a bit tense at the moment..so I did my superwoman and made the Christmas cake (now cooling..), cooked fajitas for tea, put the washing in and then threw a temper tantrum....so I didn't do the washing up, the girls did!! ..and I let emotional hunger get to me and ate a piece of chicken that was sitting in the fridge..bugger!
I knew what i was doing, and I did just eat the chicken breast, no skin and no carbs to go with it so at least there was some damage limitation but it was a real 'now look what you made me do' moment!! Never mind, done now and I feel really sick so it serves me right really!! This is NOT how to cope with stress!!
missed my tea time foodpack so am just having a vanilla latte and then will try to get some sleep. Took the dog out a while ago and it was really beautiful on the moor, all the stars were out and it was quite frosty...nice to get a night time walk, must do it more often!
funny day, hope tomorrow is a bit better, but I doubt it somehow! will try to deal with it a bit better though, need to do a thought record I think!!
