One Month of My New Normal

I’ve been on dayshift for a month now.

The CONS:

I gained 6 pounds.

What You Talkin Bout Willis???

WHAAAAAAAT??

Yeah. Seems as though eating regular meals, 4 o clock snack at work( a wonderful thing that always includes baked goods) and then coming home only to eat whatever fast food CDub has picked up has really done me in.

*cries*

I got on the scale Wednesday morning and just SOBBED. I did immediately get off of said scale and go for a run to my credit.  I HAD too.  I ran three miles before almost passing out in my driveway.  The next day, I decided that enough was enough. I packed my lunch, didn’t go to Starbucks for my Venti White Chocolate Mocha, and ate a sensible breakfast and dinner.  And I avoided 4 o’clock snack like a plague.  I will loose these damn 6 pounds AND a few more. I don’t want to say how many, but I need wiggle room.

Moving on.

The PROS:

Working the dayshift for the last month has also allowed me to be home every evening. I have dinner with my guys.  I get to put my boy to sleep every night.  I sleep in my bed every night.  I’ve started to reorganize my house again.  I’ve been cooking actual meals, not just throw togethers.  I take my boy to the park when I pick him up from daycare instead of rushing him home so I can rush to work. I blog on a schedule.  I take pictures.  I have sex. 🙂

I’ve been happy.

I like it.
