Just a little blip

As I am temporarily unemployed, I buy groceries for a week at a time as a way to minimize costs and to be nimble. I would hate to have to move on a full fridge...just a waste of food. This week has lasted a little longer than my rations. The unemployment site was down on Sunday so I had to file on Monday. Normally I would have gotten paid today...but I guess there was some kind of backlog because I won't get paid until tomorrow.

So yesterday and today has been kinda lean eating. Granted I am not starving...I'm just eating a less food and less balanced. I didn't exercise yesterday either. Today I plan to Tae Bo it out...or maybe take a walk because the heat wave has finally broken and it's going to be GORGEOUS all day long.

No worries - God has gotten me through rougher patches than this.
On the upside
- things are looking great on the job front
- I received a check yesterday from a credit card company. It was a refund for overpayment. Translation: I've paid down one of my credit cards! I didn't even realize that I had paid this one off...I thought I had at least $100 left. Since my bank isn't in this state and I'm not going to patronize predatory check cashing places, I'll mail in the deposit today.
- last night I got to see the VH1 Hip Hop Honors...and they were honoring one of my favorite groups of all times: A Tribe Called Quest. As a plus...Common, one of the sexiest mofos performed Tribe songs....AND Tribe ripped it with the closing performance. As an added bonus - Whodini was honored and they performed. Whodini was the first rap group I saw in concert. In fact, it was my first real concert. Made even better because Daddy took us and we had backstage passes...(read more here)

So instead of focusing on the lack of healthy food choices, or lack of money, or being fat or any of the other random negative things I could think about today, I am focusing on God's benevolence in all situations.
