After a full night's sleep....

I do feel better than I did yesterday. I was tired and cranky, for sure.

I forgot to mention that I am ONE pound away from reaching the 20 pound mark on weight loss. Depending on the scale, of course... but I'm pretty darn close.

One silver lining - I actually wore a pair of jeans to school yesterday that were 'pre-Olivia' jeans. The last time I fit into them was the week that I found out I was pregnant with Meredith.

Actually, everything I bought over the summer is starting to become too big. I can still wear them, but they give more than I would like... so in my search for a pair of pants, yesterday, I DARED to pull out the old jeans - and they fit!!!!!!!!!

That was my silver lining on a really bad day.

The bathroom drama was made worse, for me, b/c Bryan's cousin Mike is in town and was over to have dinner and watch the football game with him. Each year, Mike comes down and MUST eat at our house 'take out' from Disalvos, Italian rest. It is always the same order - he must get the 'ala vodka' pasta... it has become a tradition.

So, when they were ordering food - I ordered the same. I haven't had pasta in 3 months and thought I deserved to eat some serious carbs. (bad day and all)

Well, during the whole bathroom tile drama... I start serving out the food and realize that Bryan had only ordered one 'ala vodka' order. I'm thinking that this one was mine and couldn't believe that Bryan didn't order one for Mike.

Mike answers that he had had a late lunch and wasn't very hungry. THEN HE TELLS ME THAT HE WOULD JUST SPLIT SOME OF MINE. I was like, 'What makes you think I want to share with you?' but I could never say that, of course. So, I had to swallow hard and just say - sure.

The kicker is... I was so mad about the bathroom being tiled wrong - I wasn't hungry and didn't eat. So, guess what Mike did? He took home the pasta!!!!!! I got ZERO.

This plus the fact that he played with my computer, while I was in the shower, and downloaded some stuff. You would think he would ASK first, but he did not and the stuff he downloaded wasn't compatible with my anesthesia stuff - warning, blinking lights kept flashing.

I was livid! but I was livid for the whole evening so I just gave up and went to bed quietly.

Trying to concentrate on the weight loss... not the evil thoughts I was directing at the men in this house.
