Day 5

blytheswideshut — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 11:21:18 +0000

I almost can't bear it. I feel full of energy and restless but tired at the same time. I'm hungry but queasy and billious all together. I've never been good at waiting, but this truly is the hardest wait.

4 days...into the 2WW

blytheswideshut — Sun, 12 Oct 2008 05:19:49 +0000

This is the time of year when I consolodate. I like this time - the weather is good, the days are just the right length, it's mid year but close enough to the end to feel like I'm on the home stretch.
