a moment to refocusonlife -- Jimmy?

Happy Hump Day once again y'all! It seems I just can't get this blog written each week prior to hump day! But, at least we are on the downswing of the week, right? We are barreling toward the weekend and I, for one, am ready!

20th Reunion. Ugh. 

Speaking of the weekend, last weekend was a travesty for me! Don't get me wrong, the weekend was incredible. I attended my first Bar Mitzvah and had my 20th high school reunion, all on the same day! What do these things have in common? Yep, you guessed it, a Buffet! And not a Jimmy or a Warren one either...a full fledged eat until your guy hurts, beautiful, waller in southern, comfort food buffet. 

Sage Buffet? 

Since I had known both of these Buffet's were coming up, I had made a conscious decision to "throw caution to the wind" and eat some dang food. I looked like a Piece of Work eating my weight at the Buffet. Mark even called me out at the reunion. But, I was Knee Deep in my current plate, so I finished it. When I was done, I may as well have been in Magaritaville because I was drunk on food. Oh, and yes, there were drinks flowing and I distinctly remember someone saying, Why Don't We Get Drunk? Was that you, Mark? 

We didn't, for the record, but come Sunday morning, I was regretting my food and drink choices because the scale called me out in a big way! Is it even possible to gain 4 pounds in one day!?

So, I decided to Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On. Come Monday, things would be different! After a weekend long binge, this week I've been Little Miss Magic! For the week, I'm 505 calories under budget! Hooray me! 

The moral of the story is, we all make mistakes, we all have transgressions, we all act like It's 5 O'clock Somewhere sometimes, but It's My Job (and your job) to not let those blips get the better of us! 

Carry on with your week everyone! Have a wonderful rest of the week, and don't forget to take a moment to refocusonlife!!
