End of semester

Over the past month or so I havent had much of a chance to write any posts but now my exams are finally over and I have more time on my hands again which is great! Although I havent gotten any results back yet I am confident that they will be fine! I worked really hard and I prepared myself for them as best as I possibly could have so no matter what happens,  I can be proud of that.

Although I did get anxious and stressed at times, I think I coped with my exams relatively well. It really helped having my wonderful boyfriend there for support and also keeping a healthy balance by getting some exercise everyday helped me too. At times though I know I got stressed and wasnt great company for my boyfriend to be around, but I am thankful he didnt take it personally and was surprised by just how understanding he was.

Now My exams are over, I am looking forward to doing some extra shifts at work (so i can hopefully save a bit of money as I am very broke at the moment). I am also excited to now have more time to dedicate to growing my herbalife business. Herbalife is something I am so incredibly passionate about and of I can build a career for myself through helping others feel fantastic 24 hours a day, 7 days oer week, then that will be a dream come true.

I am in the midst of starting up a fit club which is super exciting and I cant wait to see what else the future holds! The weather is finally starting to warm up now that summer is approaching as well which is another added bonus! This summer is going to be the first summer in a long time that I have had a really good relationship with food as well as good self confidence so I am really looking forward to it!

Im just about to make myself a herbalife cookies and cream frappe for dessert and then I will probably just snuggle into bed and watch some telly for the rest of the night. It feels so good to do this now after not having had the time for so long! I hope everyone is really well. Please let me know if you have any specific post topic requests or any questions you would like answered.

Less structured eating routine

Since starting a new job at mcdonalds, I have found it quite difficult to continue eating 6 meals everyday. Especially since I am usually gone from home for 6 hours or so, without a chance to eat.

To ensure I keep up my calorie intake, I am increasing the size of my meals as I decrease the number of meals I have. For instance today I only had time for 5 meals, but I increased the size of my first two meals and dessert to make up for it.

Although it seems as though I am forcing in much more food then I actually need at each meal, I know that this is what I need to do to make sure I get enough energy and dont lose weight. I know it is important for me to take this precaution as I still manage to lose weight much easier then other people, even when I dont want to.

What is your experience of this? Do you find that losing weight happens particularly easily after weight restoration happens? Do you have a possible explanation for this?

Finally, I will share with you my food diary for the day, as I know many of my readers enjoy them :)

Today I am working at the supermarket for the day so I thought I would share some photos of me in uniform. Hopefully the day goes quite fast! Have a good day everyone! Xx

Mid week madness

After what feels like another hectic day, I am finally sitting down to relax for the rest of the night. After getting up at 6am, having breakfast and writing a post, I took Tess for a nice long walk. It was a lot cooler this morning when I walked Tess then it has been lately (only 4 degrees celcius) but fortunately the sun was still shining and the day warmed up quite quickly.

I had an ok day at work although ny co-worker wasn't very nice to me (which I am just starting to expect as I think it is simply a part of her personality). I tried not to let it bother me but I couldnt help but get a bit upset. It isnt necessarily what she says but instead the tone she speaks to me in. And I also feel as though I need to be perfect all the time as otherwise she will give me a hard time, which really isnt what I need at the moment, whilst I am trying to overcome my perfectionism.

When I got home, it was nice and warm so I decided to take Tess straight for a walk. I Walked Tess to the supermarket so that I could pop in and see my gorgeous cousin Jemma and chat with her as she had to work once she finished school. It was really nice to see her as always and we planned to do something either Thursday afternoon or this weekend. I am so excited about this weekend as it is the first week off work that I have had in ages and my best friend Jocelyn is coming to stay with me for the weekend.

Jemma and I

When I got back home, I cookef myself special egg fried rice with extra vegetables. It was super delicious as always.  After tea I spent almost an hour trying to tidy up my house a little as it was in a huge mess. I didnt get a chance to do any house work on the weekend as I worked and went out so there were clothes scattered everywhere. I feel nuch better now I have atleast made a start to tidying up my house as I hate mess and wont have quite as much to do on Thursday which is my next day off.

I just got out of the shower and had some watermelon and a bowl of icecream for dessert. The icecream is a 'lolly bag' tub with musk flavour, banana lolly flavour and bubblegum flavour. I highly reccommend this type of icecream as it is super delicious. My favourite of the three flavours was the musk. Now I am planning on just laying on the couch and watching The biggest looser before going to bed. I hope your week is going great! :) xx

Super tired

After working all day whilst feeling incredibly tired, I am so happy to finally be home. I took Tess for a quick walk and then cooked myself a yummy tea of chicken nuggests and vegetables. I have only just started eating chicken nuggets, after not really eating them since I was a kid but I really enjoy them.

Now I plan on just having a shower and then watching telly. I will most likely fall asleep as soon as I lay on the couch as I am so tired. I need to try and get a good nights sleep tonight anyway as I really dont want to be tired for work tomorrow.

I always try and be fully refreshed and ready for work, especially at the bank as it is so important that I keep completely alert and also that my concentration is fully on the job. Otherwise it is too easy to make a mistake which you just cant do when you are dealing with so much money and peoples finances. surprisingly I cope with the responsibility quite well but I would probably be more anxious if I wasnt on anti anxiety medication.

I just have three more days of work now and I have a day off, I cant wait! And then next weekend my best friend is coming up from Hobart to stay for the whole weekend which I am also really excited about!

Back to work

I cant believe the weekend is over already and now I am going back to work for another week. I really feel as though I could do with a day resting after working all weekend but that will just have to wait for Thursday as that is my next day off work. After a good nights sleep last night, I am not really feeling too tired. In fact I am feeling quite energized! I just ate breakfast and when I finish writing this post I am going to get ready and take Tess for a walk.

Breakfast: Toast with Cashew Spread and Vanilla Oats

At the moment I am really enjoying getting outside and taking Tess for nice long walks but I don't feel as though I HAVE to do this which is good. Afterall, it is so easy to get addicted to exercise or to use it as a compensation tool for eating and I really don't want to do anything like that. Ass long as I am exercising purely for enjoyment and health I am happy but I do not think that it is healthy for me to exercise if I don't enjoy it.

I am feeling quite healthy at the moment. My skin is good which I think is a refection of my overall health and my mental health seems to be quite good too. I would like to eventually stop taking my anxiety medication as I don't think I really need it anymore. I think that becoming weight restored has allowed my mind to get much better too and this has allowed me to start thinking more clearly. It really is amazing how much eating more and gaining weight can help you in all aspects of life, including your anxiety levels.

Today I am working at the bank which should be ok. It is only a 7 hour work day which is good as I do find working at the bank quite exhausting. I suppose the reason why I find it quite tiring is because there is always so much to learn and you have to be actively thinking all the time. There is just so much to do and so much to learn but I know that I can only do my best and that I cant stress myself out. Afterall, stressing out isn't going to help me at all, it will just make learning everything more difficult.

I hope that everyone had a fantastic weekend and that your week ahead is fantastic too! Remember you can do anything you set your mind too, as long as you believe in yourself! x

Friday update

I am currently sitting inside at the bank in my lunch break and only have 5 more hours of work to get through this afternoon before I can knock off and go home. I had a toasted sandwhich for lunch as well as an apple and a rapberry and white chocolate flavoured yoghurt. I really enjoyed everything as I was really hungry and I always enjoy food more when I am hungry.

I am working at the supermarket all weekend but dont really mind. I haven't made any other weekend plans so at this stage I think I will just be relaxing at home after work finishes each day and walking Tess. my life really does seem super busy at the moment, compared to before which I am enjoying but I also like to have time just taking it easy and spending time with Tess too.

My lunch break is almost over so I really should start to wrap this post up. I just thought I may as well do a quick update whilst I had the chance about how my day is going. I have a fair bit to do this afternoon at the bank which is a good thing as I find it makes the time go faster. And there is always training to so if ever I run out of other work to do.

My day

After another full on and busy day, I am feeling quite tired and am looking forward to being able to settle down for the night and relax. I don't mind being busy though as I dont like being bored either. I probably would not have coped with being busy once however now that I am looking after myself, I can stay happy and healthy whilst I am busy so it isn't an issue at all. The rain stopped this morning for just long enough for me to take Tess for a nice walk before I went to work. 

I went out for lunch today with a boy that often comes into the bank and it went ok, although I dont really know if we will ever be anymore then friends as I didn't feel as though we had all that much in common. We are two incredibely different people which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but at this stage I dont think we would make a very good couple either. Who knows though, anything is possible!

When I got home I took Tess for another walk beefore getting home and cooking myself some tea. As always (as you can see from the pictures) I went completely overboard with vegetables and I struggled to even fit them all on the plate, even though the plate is huge. I absolutely love vegetabes though and love so many different types that I always end up cooking heaps. Tonight Ihad mashed pumpkin and potato, carrots, broccoli, caulliflower and brussel sprouts. I also had some honey soy Chicken breast tenders with tomato sauce which were delicious too.

I am just about to go for a shower before tidying up my kitchen and the rest of my house and bringing Tess inside for the night. There are a couple of good tv shows on tv tonight so I hope I dont fall asleep whilst I am watching them like I always seem to do. I hope that everyone is having a great week. :)

A busy day

Wednesdays are by far my busiest and most hectic day. It is 6:30 am right now and I know I should be trying to get organised for my day, but I just wanted to write a quick post first. I start work at 8:30 today and still need to get completely ready and take Tess for a walk so I really do need to get a hurry on.  I wont be able to take Tess for our usual long morning walk so perhaps I will just take her to the beach and let her have a run instead.

My day doesnt even end when I finish work tonight at 5:45 as then I have yoga for 2 hours. I am quite looking forward to yoga after missing it last week but it does mean I wont get home until really late which us a bit annoying. I will have to take an extra snack to work to have before yoga as otherwise I would be starving by the time I got home and had tea. I am planning on having soup and fresh bread for tea though so atleast it will be quick and easy to make when I do finally get home. 

I have received lots of emails over the last day or two that I really want to reply to but I dont think I will be abke to today as I am just so busy. But I have the day off work tomorrow so I will be able to reply to them all then :) please, if it ever does take me a while to reply to you dont think that I just cant be bothered or dont want to, it really is only because I haven't had time. i care about you all ALOT and it kills me to not be able to reply straight away when I can see that you need support or advice.

I slept until 6:00 am this morning and was woken by my alarm which is pretty good for me. My sleeping routine is starting to normalize and I suppose that this is all just a part of recovery. I find now that I can fall asleep at a 'normal' time, I can wake up at a 'normal' time and I am not awake for hours throughout the night. It means that I dont seem to have as much time to reply to emails and write posts though as I used to do that when I couldnt sleep however being able to sleep is definitely better!

I am not going to let myself get stressed out about being busy though. I know that there is only so much I can do each day and getting stressed and panicking wont change that. Being busy isnt a reason to be unhappy, it just means that I have a life and that is something to be thankful for!

Just a typical day

Although today really has just been another typical day, it has also been a good day. it feels so great to be enjoying every day so much, even on the days that I am not doing anything particularly exciting. Ever since I became sick, I have realised that being happy is the most important thing in life And whilst I am happy, I feel as though I am truly living and making the most of my life.

I walked Tess again early this morning before getting ready for work. I got a lift to Bicheno with a work colleague where I spent the day working. It wasnt that busy but I still had plenty to do and the day went nice and quickly. I even got a chance to do some studying for my certificate 3 in business which is good too. When I got home from work I made myself a yummy tea. I cooked fish cakes, broccoli, corn, cheese sauce, pumpkin, carrot and peas and it was a delicious meal.

At the moment I am watching a games show thag I really like called Family Feud and I am about to take Tess for a quick walk in the dark before bringing her inside for the night. When i get back I will have a shower, eat dessert (I am thinking maybe hot apple pie with icecream) and settle down for the night. There isnt much on tv so I think I will start a new book that I have borrow from one of my friends. It is a typical country romance novel so I should enjoy it as those are the types of books I enjoyed reading most. 

Time for a break

After a very busy start to the week, I am glad to say that I can finally have a bit of a rest. I drove to Bicheno on both Monday and Tuesday and then worked at the supermarket for the whole day today. After finishing work at 5:45 I went straight to yoga so I didn't get home until almost 8:00 pm. I had soup for tea with buttered fresh bread so that was a really quick and easy meal. I love eating hot soup when it is cols outside and it was also really esy for me to eat with my sore throat.

I am so gllad to have the day off tomorrow and I plan to make the most of it as I will have to work from Friday to the following Thursday without a break. Over the past few days the morning and nights have been freezing cold however the days have been sunny and warm so I really hope that it is nice again tomorrow. I would love to be abe to spend some time outside with Tess and to go for some nice walks.

Besides that I really dont have any other plans. Of course I will need to catch up on some house work as my house need to be tidied, my floor needs to be vacuumed and I need to wash some clothes but besides that I will just be taking it easy and having a rest day. I am actually feeling quite good despite my cold, however I think a rest day is exactly what I need to try and get rid of my cold all together. Fingers crossed I am feeling better before this weekend as it has ended up being quite a busy one.

I hope that everyone else is having a lovely week. Please keep fighting and keep believing. You really can do anything if you believe in yourself!

A big day

Today has been quite a long day but it has also been quite a good day. I got up nice and early as usual, caught up on some blogging, ate breakfast and started getting ready. I took Tess for a nice walk which we both really enjoyed. It wasn't quite as cold this morning as it has been over the last week or so which was a nice change.

I had to drive to Bicheno to work which I was a bit ervous about as it was the first time I had driven along the road that I had my accident on. I could feel myself getting more and more anxious as I got closer and closer to the spot where I actually had my accident but I knew that I just had to be brave and stay calm. Fortunately I got to work in one piece and had a good day at work.

Since getting home tonight, I have picked Amy up because she is staying with me for the night. At the moment we are watching the movie Avatar but we will probably go to bed as soon as it finishes as I am eally tired and we both have to get up quite early in the morning. I have to drive her to her Dance lesson in the morning as mum is working and then I am babysitting my cousins tomorrow night.

I am looking forward to having a proper rest day on Sunday as it has been very hectic these past few weeks and it will be the last day I have off in a while. So I am planning on spending most of the day just resting on the couch as well as doing some study as I have an assesment on Monday morning for my certificate 3 in business. I hope that everyone has a fatastic weekend! :) x

The aftermath of my accident

I was supposed to be working today at the supermarket but didn't know whether I would or not until this morning. Thankfully I didn't actually have trouble sleeping last night like I thought I probably would. Instead I fell sleep as soon as I went to bed and slept right through the night until I woke this morning at about 5:15. 

When I got up, I was also surprised as I wasn't really sore at all. Besides the bruise on my right shoulder from where it hit my door and also the graze on my chin that was made by the seatbelt when I rolled, I practically feel fine. So I decided to get up and get ready to go to work.

Everyone told me that I should have had the day off and just rested however I am happy that I decided to go to work. I would much rather stay busy and just keep moving forward then sit at home by myself and worry about what happened. I know that worrying wont change the past and it will just make me unhappy and anxious.

Something I didn't really enjoy was people coming into the shop all day and asking me if I was ok and asking me what happened. As I was explaining what happened over and over again, it has really started to sink in about just how lucky I am to be alive. I guess this just goes to show that I am a survivor, in more ways then one and that it wasn't my time to go. 

I expect driving again is something that I may find difficult and it will most likely cause me to feel anxious but I know that it is something that I just need to overcome. Afterall, I live 50 kilometers from where I work so I have no choice but to start driving again. I am supposed to be driving to work on Friday which i am feeling a little axious about as I will have to drive straight past the place I hd the accident but I know I will be ok as long as I am careful and allow plenty of extra time for me to get there.

Ready for a brand new week

After sleeping for most of yesterday and then for almost 12 hours last night, I am glad to say that I am feeling healthy and happy and ready to start another week of work. My house seems like a huge mess and it seems ike I have so much to do after woring for 12 days straight and then having a really busy weekend but I know that there is no point worrying about it. I will just have to be patient with myself and slowly get through all of the jobs that need to be done. over the next few days.

I was so worried yesterday that i was going to wake up this morning and still feel sick as I really didn't want to go to work feeling unwell but fortunately this has nt been the case and I am almost feeling completely back to normal. I felt well enough to have a normal sized breakfast anyway which is aa positive thing. I am still feeling a little ashaimed of myself for having so much to drink but I know that I cant change it now. As I said yesterday I know that I just need to learn from my mistakes and not do it again.

It has been incredibely windy all night and my whole unit has just rattled and shook so I am really not looking forward to walking Tess early this morning. I know that I have to take her though because I only took her for thie tiniest walk yesterday and she is full of energy because of this. Hopefully I don't get blown away though ;). I am working at the bank today in Bicheno which is only a 7 hour work day which is good. Hopefully this means I will also have time to get a few other things done here around my house.

I hope that everyone had a great weekend. And that your week ahead is great too! :D

Thankfully it's Friday

I am so glad that it is Friday! It is quite strange as even though I am working all weekend, I still feel relieved that it is the weekend for some reason. I don't know what it is about the weekends but for some reason, they just have the ability to make me really happy. :) I am working at the supermarket all weekend but I dont really mind. Although I am feeling tired tonight after a busy week, I know that I will be fine in the morning as long as I get a good nights sleep tonight. I am sorry that I haven't published any posts today yet. I just haven't seemed to have had the chance. I will try and get some together to post before I go to bed though, provided I can keep my eyes open for long enough. ;)

I ad a really productive day at work today. I oened up tw onew customer accounts and also handles a lot of cash. I am still really enoying my job at the bank which is great. There is still so much to learn but Iam atully enjoying the challenge of it. Ilike the fact that you can always do more and that I will be able to continue to push myself a little further in terms of my career. It isn't like some jobs where you just get 'stuck' in the one position where there is no opportunities to further your career. In saying this however there is not too much pressure for you to advance either. You really can just progress at a pace you are comfortable with which really suits me well.

I am really struggling even to just wite this post as Tess won't leave me alone. She is being extremely clingy tonight and really wants my attention. So she keeps trying to lay on my arms while I am trying to type, getting between me and my tablet and also trying to lick my face. So this post is taking me three times as long to write as it should be. I should really just growl at her or tie her up but it is so hard to be grumpy with her when she is being so affectionate. So even though she is being annoying I am going to put up with it because she is just so gorgeous. It sounds silly but it makes me feel so special when Tess shows so much affection towards me.

I hope that everyone has a fantastic weekend. And make sure you keep fighting as it is oly through truly fighting you will make recovery progress. <3 xx

Friday night babysitting

The thing about babysitting is that it can either be the easiest of hardest job in the world. Luckily, tonight is one of those night that it is the easiest job in the world. Tonight I am looking after a one year old boy and a 6 year old girl. The one year old boy was already asleep in bed before his parents left so all I had to do was occupy the little girl for an hour or so and put her to bed. Now they are both asleep and I have 3 hours or so to occupy myself.

I hope that both of the kids stay asleep. Last time I babysat I was looking after a little girl who was probably only 3 years old and she cried and screamed for her mum until nearly midnight, so tonight has been a much more enjoyable experience, so far anyway.    

I am planning to get some posts written to have for times when I am too busy to write and also perhaps to find some good recovery advice from sites online to share with you all too. If anyone has any suggestions or requests for certain post topics you would like me to write about, please let me know. Sometimes it can be hard to think of new post ideas and I dont want my posts to get to repetitives so any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

I had a good day at work today but am looking forward to a couple of days off over the weekend. I left my dog inside before I came out to babysit tonight so I hope she hasn't done to much damage inside. I thought she would bark too much if I left her outside while I was out so late but I also hope she hasn't got naughty while I am out and chewed anything up or made a mess.

What are your weekend plans? Please remember to comment anything you would like me to write about below :)

                                                                                                 

Good morning

Finally Friday morning is here which means that the weekend is just around the corner. I am feeling happy and positive this morning, even if I do feel a little sick after the breakfast I just ate. For breakfast I had a huge bowl of chocolate oats which was really nice but super rich and filling. I haven't eaten chocolate oats for like 12 months as I had basically forgotten about it until I saw a photo of chocolate oats on another persons blog a few days ago. I think I will have it again in the future however I will just have a smaller portion and have toast as well, so I dont end up feeling this full and uncomfortable.

To make my Chocolate Oats I used 80g of oats, 15g of pure cocoa powder, 50g of sweetner as well as 1 and a half cups of milk. I then cooked it in the microwave until it thickened. It seemed to go really gluggy so I added some cold water to it as well once it had finished cooking which improved its consistency and also cooled it down so I could eat it straight away.   

I slept until 6am this morning, for the secong morning in a row which I hope means that my sleeping pattern is starting to normalise. After years of getting up at 5am or earlier it has been a hard routine to break but I really hope that I can continue sleeping later like this. Atleast then I can manage to stay awake later then 8pm. ;) Tonight after work at the bank I am going to babysit for someone (from 6:30 until 11:30), so I will have to stay awake quite late which I will probably struggle with, especially after a llong day at work today. But luckily I have all of tomorrow to rest and recover as it will be Saturday and I don't have to work this weekend. 

On Sunday I am going to Hobart with my dad ad sister as my sister is competing with her school in the cheerleading championships. Cheerleading is not traditionally a big sport in Australia but it is just starting to get bigger now. My sister is really good at all of the tricks (like forwards and backwards walkovers) so gets to do those throughout the routine. I havent told her as I know she would be devastated but I doubt she will bbe able to do tthose types of tricks in a few years time because she also has ligamentous laxity and dislocating joints like me. She really wants to do gymnastics in high school but I dont think her body wil cope with it at all. Afterall, I couldn't even keep up my competitive swimming which is much less sressful on the body then gymnastics or cheerleading is.

I better start getting ready for work. I still have to iron my uniform which takes me forever as I am really bad at ironing and hate it, walk Tess, cut my lunch and drive to Bicheno. I hope that everybody has a fantastic day. :)

 

Work, Doctors appointment and yoga

Unfortunately I woke up this morning with another skin infection on my face. After taking Tess for an early walk between rain showers, I went to work at the supermarket. I hate working when I have a skin infection as I get so self concious however I know that I cant expect myself to look perfect all the time. Blemishes are just a part of everyday life so i guess in a way these infections are good as they teach me to accept myself for who I truly am no matter what.

I left work this morning to go to the doctor so that I could get some more antibiotics and my doctor also gave me a refferal to go and see a dermatologist, since nothing else seems to work for me. I am excited to be going to a dermatologist as I was starting to feel as though there was no hope that my skin would ever clear up as no matter what I did, I would still get infections. I just prey that the dermatologist has some real answers for me and can help me to get better.

For the first time in as long as I can remember, my doctor didnt weigh me when I got to her doctors office. I suppose she felt as though I was looking so much healthier that she really didnt want to know my exact weight. I went straight from work to Yoga which as always I really enjoyed. The only problem was that my back was especially sore, even before we started and my shoulders were too. The pain wasn't unbarable however so I just pushed through it and still managed to have a good time.

Overall, besides a few hiccups I have had a good day. I hope your day was wonderful :) x

Back to work

It feels strange to be getting up this morning to go to work after working all weekend. I would love a rest day right about now but not really because I feel as though I am exhausted and need it because I feel fantastic, more because there are things I need/want to do but cant as I am working all day everyday.

I had a huge nights sleep last night as I fell asleep at about 8:15 while watching masterchef (which I am not happy about as i really enjoy that show and it is the final week of the show) and slept until 6:00 this morning, which is almost 10 hours! So I guess this is why I am feeling so energized and refreshed this morning.

I need to clean my house so badly but just havent had the time. If I have time I will try and vacuum my whole house before work today and put away all my washing that I managed to get done over the weekend. I also really want to continue watching my Pretty Little Liars dvds as I am completely hooked on them but just havent been able to actually sit down and watch them. I also wish that I could take Tess for some nice long walks but I guess that will just have to wait until my next days off.

I know that everyone probably finds these types of posts super boring but I do feel as though I need to share what I do in My everyday life, even though all that seems to be at the moment is work. Hopefully my life gets more interesting soon so that then I will be able to share some more interesting news with you all.

I have some better posts planned for today (now I just have to find the time to put the together). I am going to do a post about where I am currently at in my recovery as well as a food diary picture post as I haven't done one of those for a while.

I hope everyone has a fantastic day. Does anyone have anything interesting planned? X

quick Update before work

This is going to be a seriously quick update as I am literally due at work in 10 minutes. All I can say is there seriously aren't enough hours in my day at the moment. So I do apologise for my current blogging. But I cant let myself get too stressed about the fact that I am finding it hard to blog as well and often as I would like to. Afterall my blog is upposed to be helping me, not jus making me more stressed.

This morning I got up and had breakfast before getting ready for work and walking Tess on the beach. It was freezing and icy but I still really enjoyed getting out in the fresh air. And now, as I write this post I am trying to quickly eat my morning tea, which was a mandarin, hjam filled lamington and an Up and Go. I really am sorry that this post is so short and rushed, I just wanted to post something before sartring work at the supermarket today. Have a good day everyone :)
