Now what?

I'm two hours into my 4 hour evening without David being here. It's not that I mind being alone. I don't. I spend a lot of time alone and I think maybe that's what the problem is. I forgot he had hockey tonight and was excited thinking of having someone here besides Bayou (who really doesn't say very much, lol). So when I realized he had hockey and would be out for the night I was a bit bummed out. But I've kept busy doing homework and talking to a friend. Now I'm taking a break from the homework and watching NASCAR and blogging. When I finished the homework I almost got up and got some chips though. It wasn't even a planned thing. I just was automatically going to get up and get something but I caught myself and didn't get up and get anything. I'm not hungry so I'm not going to eat. I just wanted to get something just because. I'm so glad I didn't do it. If I had even gotten up I probably would have justified having a snack. Crisis averted.

I haven't had a nap today which is unusual for me so I'm getting tired. I'll stay up until David gets home though which should be around 10pm. He usually unwinds for a while but I think I'll head to bed so I can be up in the morning to go work out. I took some ibuprofen so my legs feel a little bit better. I think I'll take some ibuprofen before I go to the Y for preventative purposes. I printed out some basic stretches and will check with someone in the Y gym before I do them. They look like the ones that Karen was telling me to do. I'll have to modify some of them though. I can't so the ones where I bend my knee back. Too much fat on my legs to do that at this point. That's okay though. I'll do what I am able to do and not more. I don't want to get hurt.

I'm glad I was able to find some basic stretches. Some of the ones I found I think were a bit too advanced and they actually made me laugh. There is no way I could do them. I hurt just thinking about doing them. LOL

It's 8pm and I haven't snacked so I think I'm going to be okay. My food has had plenty of time to digest and I don't feel hungry at all. If I ate now it would be just to do it not because I was hungry and I won't let myself do that. But NASCAR is about to end and I still have about 2 hours until David gets home. Yikes. I better find something to research online or do or I might snack and I don't want that.
