So I've been in a bad mood all day, though I think it's just the PMS talking. Not only did my treadmill workout get ruined by excruciating cramps after 10 minutes (I literally had to try not to cry, it hurt so bad)... but everyone else in the house was in a bad mood too, for completely separate reasons. Altogether it just created a negative atmosphere. Ugh, I think it's the full moon...
So this morning I had oatmeal with skim milk, Splenda, and half a banana. After finishing stripping the walls and spackling, I warmed up half of my leftover seafood pasta and had that with a bowl of salad with ginger dressing, and a peach. Then I had a cup of coffee with regular creamer (I know I know, but it's my favorite, and it's delicious! And I only had a small cup, not a regular mug.) For dinner I went out to the Whitman with my dad and my siblings, where I had a seared ahi tuna salad with arugula, corn, tomato, avocado, and balsamic vinegarette. I ate a little over half of it and took the rest to go. It was huge! After dinner we took Renee to pick out a new guitar for her birthday. When I got home I served my parents dessert-- warmed up peach cobbler and ice cream. Just smelling the chocolate ice cream totally set me off. I took a single scoop of chocolate, put it in a tiny bowl, and ate it as slowly as possible. It was worth it.
Tomorrow I'm going back to Long Island for a week to help my aunt out with promoting her band. She's even gonna pay me! I'm afraid to do any cardio for the next few days, I don't think I can endure cramps like that again. I'm just gonna attend my aunt's strength training exercise class with her and and use the exercise ball in her basement until then.
Hopefully I'll be out of my funk tomorrow and ready to take on my new adventure as a temporary publicist/marketing director/personal assistant. This should definitely be interesting...
Three things I'm thankful for today:
-ibuprofen. I've never had such painful cramps in my life, I hope there's nothing wrong!
-Grace for acting like our collective therapy dog today. She made us all feel better.
-arugula. I wish I had it in my salad every day, it's amazing.
