Nerves and the lottery

Okay, I have to admit I'm getting a tiny bit nervous. I'm actually purchasing tickets for this high school reunion and have not made a whole lot of progress... Surely, I'm healthier. Vitamins must do something, right? Surely I've enjoyed blogging... but take today for example. Completely forgot water and vitamins. Did manage a walk... I've got this new system of walking to the liquor store. It sounds a lot worse than it is. I go to purchase my diet coke for the day and a lottery ticket which is my sound, well thought out, strike plan.

I know I should walk for walkings sake, but I really do better with a destination. And there's nothing like a lottery ticket in your pocket to stimulate positive thinking and dream life. I can spend the whole way home thinking of all the good deeds I'll do for others -- naturally I have to take care of my family first.... Sure, there's the beach home and new kitchen and first class air fairs, but then I go right to good deeds for others.

So today after wrestling the weeping baby to pre-school, I ate the cereal, had some left over cake (the one with the frosting), then had a chicken shwarma pita thing, some chocolate, Chinese food dinner, wine and more chocolate. Probably over did a bit, but there were vegetables in the sandwich and the Chinese food, and of course banana in the cereal.

I also forgot the gratitude and positive thinking.. It should be so easy... thank you, thank you... An ALLIi commercial is playing right now... I could try ALLi but I've heard you have unpleasant accidents... And the whole "drugs" thing scare me thing.

Being positive is important... can't let the nerves get the best of me.

I will lose weight
I am losing weight
this is a great diet
I am getting thinner
I am grateful for my thinness
I am grateful for my diet
I am also grateful for the lottery
and thanks in advance for me winning the lottery and spreading my good will towards all.
