The one where she crawls back... tail between her legs..

I know it has been some time. My excuses of being too busy have been replaced with being too depressed.

About a month ago, I was laid off from my job. I, admittedly, have spent that month eating absolutely anything I could get my fingers on. Not good. I weighed myself this morning and all suspicions have been confirmed... I have to shake myself out of this funk!

I have been moping since the layoff. It doesn't help that my unemployment is MIA and I haven't gotten any nibbles on resumes and applications.

I spent the first week cleaning. The second and third week, I watched TV. Last week, I read. This week? This week it's all about getting it right. I started this weekend eating a bit better... not a lot better.. but a bit. Today? I go back to my healthy foods and exercise. Aside from the health and aesthetic benefits, this will help me get out of the depression that has been plaguing me.

That's really what I have for you so far. I'm going to spend this morning mapping some things out. I'm using an iphone (well, ipod) app to track my calories and exercise, and I'm back on the lemon water.

So, if you're still here.. still with me.. I'm back.. with pancakes!
