Day-10 (Early Addition): 1/4 Of The Way Done & It's Friday!

It's Friday @ 3:50 PM and I'm celebrating the weekend with a beer. I'd be heading home but I'm waiting on a call from a Vendor.  I don't feel like working, so I'll blog. 

After surviving Corned Beef and Cabbage last night and the smell of my office manager's lunch today, I know that I'm not going to slip up tonight. BTW - Kyle, my office manger, had a pasta bowl and bread sticks from Pizza Hut. His lunch totaled over 2,000 calories.  Through a wall and closed door, Kyle's lunch still smelled like it was worth every last one of those butter stuffed, salt coated, creamy carb filled bites, I wanted to lick the cardboard box it came in.

When I write at night I've noticed that I find time to reflect before and during my writing. When writing the next morning or in the afternoon it's rushed and I tend to just type what pops into my head. Beth and most people who know me well, would advise that I not type unfiltered; that is probably sound advice and I'll compromise by not getting real deep right now.

It's been a hectic week and I have not consumed any solids in 10 days.  Despite having adequate calories and nutrients, I am always hungry.  Through the chaos of work, Daniel's pneumonia, Lent and being Irish, I still find that I am thinking more of God, our relationship, looking for him around me and asking "why am I doing this?", "where is my path taking me?", "is this what I'm supposed to be doing?". These questions are hard because sometimes I know the answer and I don't always like what they are. Change can be easy but correcting what I don't like does not always seem like the best course of action. So like the busy week requires, I'll wait and hope for clarity tomorrow.

Random Notes: Started the day at 202. As of 4:08 PM I've had 780 Calories, will probably finish about 1600.  Have a great weekend!
