I feel like a Confession Thursday post is particularly appropriate during Lent. Don’t you?
This is me after my First Holy Communion
While I don’t have any confessions that would make the priest drop his bible (today anyways), this is a less-than-pleasant post because I had a visit to the gyno today.
Confession #1: I call it a “vagine” pronounced “vaj-een”, but foreign-ish. Like that particular part of my body is French or something. I dunno. All I know is, I hate vay-jay-jay. It’s not a child’s toy by Mattel, it’s a vagine.
There is so much good baby news going on in the blog-world this week! First
Emily and
Sabrina and then another friend called with baby news too!
It’s in the water. Be careful
Today’s appointment was my annual check-up and I had a good convo with the doc to make sure we were okay on my personal baby timeline (which I’m not sharing in case I change my mind because I’m flighty), birth control and the like.
She said we have time to wait if we wanted or could we go for it right now. I think I have a good idea of when we want to try and I’ll let you know when I am fairly certain I’m not gonna change my mind.
Confession #2: I drink a lot of water and when I was watching 127 hours I actually thought drinking my pee wouldn’t be as bad as drinking most.
Confession #3: I said the F word 2 times in traffic this morning. But I was “good” all day yesterday and have been ever since.
Confession #4: It is over 80 degrees today. This isn’t a confession so much as an opportunity to Thank God
Confession #5: I firmly believe in food rewards, probably always will. Since I couldn’t have a “sweet treat” after my gyno exam I treated myself with an iced tea.
Lunch: Since I was in my mom’s neighborhood for my doctor’s appointment I went to raid her fridge for lunch.
It’s a big fridge. We’re not fat by accident.
She had a good find too! Super hummus from Nasoya. I liked it with chips, but not straight up (normally I can eat hummus like it’s ice cream).
I put together a random bowl of wonderful – broccoli on the bottom, homemade smashed pinto beans with avocado, sweet potato and a piece of fish.
My real food reward came post-lunch. I wanted a Bionico. It’s a Mexican fruit salad with sweet cream and granola on top.
I opted for cottage cheese instead of sweet cream because that totally would have been cheating.
Confession #6: I’m pretty sure this is meant to feed 8 people. Or 1 Monica.
Confession #7: The other day I drank an entire liter of Diet Dr. Pepper in one afternoon. I thought giving up sweets would be the hard part, but diet soda is proving to kill me too
Confession #8: I’m probably half way done with the PB I bought less than 24 hours ago. It’s really random because I don’t normally binge on nut butter. I ate a lot yesterday in general. I blame being tired. I know it’s not because I am dehydrated because you know…(see above)
Confession #9: I had a fun surprise date night planned for
Ben and I tonight, but he guessed what it is so now I want to change it… but I’m too lazy.
Confession #10: 97% of my jokes are not funny. Like when I asked the nurse if she was a vampire because she was trying to take my blood. She didn’t laugh.
They can’t all be winners.
