Authentically Mine

Today is definitely starting off better than any of yesterday was so I am very thankful for that.

Sitting in Starbucks watching the snow fall outside and sipping my FREE non-fat mocha latte I am content for the moment. I know this can change in an instant but I take what I can get when I can get it. I think the Café Latte is my key to keeping some weight on while I am on this diabetes med that keeps me uninterested in food and thus losing weight. A plight many would like to have I realize, but for me it is a real challenge. At 350 calories each but no sugar, it is just what I need. Except for the ding in the “latte factor of money”. At $2.80 cents for a tall I will be spending $12 a week on coffee. BUT then again it is still about the same as Ensure which my doctor recommended which is GROSS.

Not much on tap for today other than a quick trip to Costco to scope out Superbowl chili supplies for next week and pick up some shampoo. Then a quick visit with my grandmother at the nursing home and a jaunt to Target. I figure I can have it all done by 1:00, still get some cleaning done around the house and be totally relaxing by 3:00.

Sometimes it is the simple goals that are the nicest to have.
