Thank heavens we're not weighing in

I am so glad we're not weighing in this week - I dread to think what the scales would reveal! I seem to have done little more than eat my way through the last couple of weeks; stress has definitely been a factor, and I do have to concede that since Mom FINALLY managed to fly out on Thursday, I have had less desire to devour everything in sight - although I haven't cut down on doing so quite as much as I'd have liked to! It also doesn't help that I'm supposed to be in Honduras right now, except that my dear friend invited me to come, offered to pay half the ticket - then promptly stopped talking to me for 2 months. I did finally get an email from him this week; apparently he has a new GM who is running him ragged and he's very depressed / unhappy. At least he's finally contacted me - but I'm still disappointed to not be in Honduras right now!

The third thing going on with me is a potential new job. I have the 2nd interview on Tuesday - weather permitting - for a position as Quality Evaluator for hospitality; it would mean traveling 95% of the time through Europe in 2-week (sometimes 3-week) blocks. On the one hand, I'm very interested / excited about it - I'd get to use my languages, see lots of different places, earn a lot of frequent flyer miles, see my friends in Europe again, network with a lot of different hotels... On the other hand, it means leaving home & Mom / Eileen & the Davises again. I so enjoy being home & getting to spend all this time with Mom - and being near enough to my sister to actually have a relationship with her, and spending time with my niece & nephews. Going so far away again means giving all of that up again - and I'm not sure I want to do that!

So guess what? I eat... And gain weight... and eat some more. Time to break that cycle, make some decisions and basically put my big girl panties back on!!! Watch this space to see how well that works for me...!!!! :0)
