DISAPPOINTMENTS

I am disappointed that I’ve stumbled and did not show yesterday. I left coming to the keyboard late. I did some shopping for my parents in the afternoon. It required some walking. My plantar fasciitis flared. It was slow and painful making my way through the mall. I came home tired and hungry. You know what happens then.

I had to make myself a cuppa, put my feel up and had a snack. My energy and willpower flagged. I lost myself in watching Lewis on Prime Video. British crime shows are great stress relaxers for me. They do eat up a lot of time being 90 minutes long. It was supper time when the show was over. But it was so worth it. I needed that! I felt rested.

We went out for supper. I had been looking so forward to having fish and chips at Pink Cadillac. Having had it, I am disappointed. It wasn’t that bad. It was big enough, unlike the skimpy thin ones I had at Red Lobster a few weeks ago. But it was a bit over fried. It seems like they were better in my memory and in the past. Disappointment aside, it dampened my desire for eating up for awhile and for fish and chips. There seemed to be not just a few weighty customers. The only slim jims were the waiters.

Did I tell you that I plan to lose 10 pounds and keep it off? I guess I should cross out fish and chips on my list. Mmm. Now in my head I’m seeing that banana split floating by to the next table.
