Attention

I did not go see my mom. My nose was dripping madly and I basically did not want to deal with going over there. I feel like a L-O-S-E-R for cancelling on her but I will get over it. Had Chinese food for dinner at my neighbors. I used a small plate and did not over do it. One of the 1st times I did not completely gorge on it so that was good. The bad part is how do you enter that into the bodybugg? LOL!

I have been getting some extra male attention lately and it feels pretty darn good. Especially in light of what has been going on with Dave lately. I was getting a complex that I was no longer an attractive/desirable person. Part of it I believe is my self-confidence is slowly increasing and I am holding my head higher. I think I am more approachable. Back in the depths of despair when I was at my heaviest, I could barely look anybody in the eyes so I think people backed off but now they look at me differently and actually approach me. I am getting better at accepting compliments too. I am making a diligent effort not to reply with a snarky put down of myself. Some habits are hard to break...

Please take a moment this Veterans Day to think about the sacrifices made by the members of the Armed Forces both living and passed. My dad was a  Korean War veteran who was disabled (paraplegic) due to a gunshot wound.  He passed away in 1999 and is buried in the Garden of Honor at the Los Gatos Cemetery near my mom's house. Until next time...
