I am not feeling good. The whole day I was feeling crappy. I could not tell if it was my ulcer acting up or I had a headache or my sugar was low. I was nauseous, my stomach was upset (of course), had terrible headache, the back of my neck ached, and I was so tired I wanted to curl up in bed and sleep. But I have a three year old who could not be trusted without proper supervision so I stayed up. I took a pill earlier and I think I am feeling a bit better. Hopefully whatever this is will be gone when I wake up tomorrow.

We just got home from the health department for the little man’s appointment. It took us a while to be served but it was fine with us since he had a good time playing with toys in the clinic until two boys snatched a toy from him and he broke down and he had to get out to cool off. Anyway, I noticed that the old timers working were not there. There were younger women doing Admin Jobs and most of them are nice. That does not mean the former workers were not nice though. It is just that one can tell when a person is new to her job because they tend to be overly nice trying to please everybody. It is good for the rest of us too. It makes the wait a bit more bearable.

Have you tasted these sinfully good chocolate bars? It is so good! The husband introduced Mounds to me three weeks ago and my first reaction was of disdain. Why? Because it was filled with grated coconut. I told him of all the things he could get me he had to choose something I have been eating since I was a kid. I mean, why not almonds? It has more class than coconut, lol. I did change my tune once I tasted one though. I thought it was the best thing in the world. I have been buying it since. And today I set a record, I ate six Mounds without thinking of the calories nor the fat and what it will do to my hips or my backside. I just let myself go. It was liberating and it felt good. I might regret the deed in the coming days when the pounds start piling up but it will not stop me from eating more when I get my hands on these delicious mini bars.

The husband made me go to Barnes & Noble today to buy a book for him. It is Suzanne Somers book Knockout. It is an interview with doctors who are curing cancer. She was on Larry King Live last night and the husband happened to watch it and he is curious so he wanted a copy of the book. Boy, it was expensive at B&N and when I checked Walmart and calculated how much more I paid I am not happy about it. Anyway, the book talks about Somer’s own ordeal and tackles some delicate subjects which I think will rile up people in the medical field (if they are not already). I personally do not know what types of cancer will be tackled in the book (perhaps mesothelioma will figure in it) but I hope it is a good read to pay up for the money we spent. I am not sure if I will read it either. I am not fond of medical books, I am a fiction junkie. I would rather curl up in the couch with Dan Brown’s new released book (which is on my list of a must-buy) than read something educational.

The husband always says that I look good in the morning which prompted me to ask him does that mean I look bad during the day, lol. He is crazy. But he has said those words ever since we got married. He said no matter how rough the previous day was when I had my night’s rest I do look better the next day. He even said beautiful. I do not argue with him on that, lol. Why, I do not have to coax it from him Anyway, I do not have nor use the best wrinkle cream to have that effect since as the sister-in-law puts it I am way too young to use any. I do not agree with her calling me too young though. I feel old and I do look old. Besides is nearing thirty too young? I don’t think so either. Anyway, I even forget to scrub my face before going to bed at night. I am so lazy, I know. I hope that even if we are old and gray and I look horrible the husband will still call me beautiful. Even if we both know he is lying.

There is something wrong with me, it is not even Halloween and we still have Thanksgiving to celebrate but I already feel like it is Christmas. It is not that I hear songs in the radio, they do not do that here this early. It is just a feeling. It might be because it is starting to cool off. I always associate it with the best holiday ever I told the husband about it and he said he feels the same. I guess Christmas spirit visited us early this year. Thank goodness our tree is boxed up somewhere in one of the closets so I cannot put it up yet. I will wait a few more weeks.

One of the husband’s friends is into the business of selling juices supposedly good to clean the body of toxins and fats. He was asked to join but he said no. We do not have money to invest on anything plus we do not know that many people to introduce the product to. I might end up gobbling down the liquid if it is good for the stomach. The husband is hesitant to buy me diet pills? Just drink the juices baby and you will have “free” colon cleanse when it is done. If it works, that is. It might, it might not. Who knows. He might not be happy about it. I think the reason he said no was that he was afraid I might sample the goods, lol. Let’s see if it works daddy. That way I can attest to it whenever we introduce it to people. He does not want to take that risk I don’t think. So he said no. We have not heard about it again.

I am itching to go back to brisk walking again. If not to lose weight then at least for my stamina. It is a known fact that when I walk daily I don’t easily get tired and I can do a million things without anybody hearing me complain. It is different when I am not. I already voiced out this complaint to the husband. I told him I need to walk. If it means buying a Baby jogger city select stroller so the little man can go with me then I will do it. He asked me what he will do while the little man and I are out walking and I told him he can go with us. He does not have to keep up with us (there is no way he could anyway), but if he is worried about our safety then he can go with us while we do our walk on the beach. At least if we do it there he can sit in a chair while we walk. He will be able to relax while I do my exercise. I cannot let him watch the little man or he will have to keep up with him which is not a good idea given his condition. The little man has to be strapped in safe and should go with mama.  I hope I can do it soon.
