Day 13

Ahh Siblings.  You have to love 'em, but you don't have to like 'em.

I spent the evening with my little brother and his fiance.  They are getting married in June, and are planning a nice little reception, followed by a "party" that none of the "old people" are allowed to go to.  Nice dude. That won't upset the family at all.  Anyway, I told him that he should rethink that, and he just said. . ."yeah."  Oooook.  lol

So today, I've been reeaally tested emotionally.  It's really hard to keep my mouth shut sometimes.  But in an effort to "choose my battles," I have chosen to keep certain things to myself.  Not easy.  Sometimes that means tears, sometimes that means calling friends who don't know the situation and simply venting.  Accepting the ways others do things, especially when you are not really sure it's the right thing, is hard.  Sometimes you spend a lot of time waiting for certain things to happen, and they never do, so you have to just accept that too, and move on.

One of the worst things ever:  When someone hurts your feelings . . . and they didn't mean to. What do you say?! Nothing!  Well that's what I do.  What is the point in making them feel bad?  It would only be to make you feel better.  So you just suck it up. . . and once again. . . move on.

Diet: BAD. . .

I had blood drawn today.  I've just been really tired.  We'll see what happens.

I just found out that studies are now showing actual calorie counts were an "average of 18% higher," than listed on the boxes of food.  Even at national food chains.  SWEET!  :-/

I think it's time for bed . . .

Oh. . .the ants.


The crazy things don't stop!

What do you think?  Do you say what you feel, even if you know it may backfire?  Or do you just keep things to yourself, and hope it won't eat you alive?  Please comment . . .

Till then. . .
