Kidless...Day 2

Day 2: Pretty much the same as Day 1.

I worked a little over. I had some things that needed to be finished. My instinct said "Nooo! I've got to..." Then reason kicked in and said, "you've got to do what? Nothing." It's done. I'll sleep better tonight.

I made the stewed tomatoes and rice for dinner and thought about today's calorie consumption. I'm thinking perhaps I need to find a month-long camp to send them to!  I'm coming in around 1500, and seriously considering burning some of it by going for a walk. If I can stand the heat. Maybe a short one.

Tomorrow I'm off and I'm looking forward to being productive around here. And I'm seriously contemplating coffee with a girlfriend tomorrow afternoon. Or a Starbucks run by myself. Or if I REALLY get a wild hair, there is always the lake. Right by myself. Hmmm...you just never can tell what will strike me, but come on. I'm going to have to find some trouble to get into!

So it's Day 2 and here is what I'm learning: bachelorettehood is not all that different from single-motherhood, just quieter. The biggest difference is that I'm eating less and cleaning more. And I'm not forced to watch anything starring Selena Gomez.
