It's been wonderful seeing some of the former kids come back to visit school. It's a little sad just because my time is almost up at BBS. However, its so good to see that some are really doing well. So well that they show their appreciation by bringing things to school. Like chocolate cake.
Now normally, when we get this cake from this fabulous parent, my co-workers and I just get a fork and dig in. This time, on that day where you are on the cusp of either saying, "Forget this," or "I can do this," the choice to stay away was a hard decision.
The motivating factor for me is to remember how much better I have been feeling these past couple of days. Although I am really tired, I just feel a little better. Plus I have been eating some fabulous homemade meals so my eating has been great. Add to that the fact that I stayed compliant while out, then you have what you hope to be a turning point.
The challenge is now to face the weekend, because normally I lounge on my couch, watch television, and snack. This time I am trying to stay as busy as possible so that I won't desire a slice a cake.
