Chocolate Ice Cream
This has been one of those weeks. I got a craving for ice cream and I tried to ignore it. Unfortunately while ignoring the craving that was screaming at me I managed to eat about 10 of those Nabisco 100 calorie cookie packs over the last five days. After eating three of them this evening I finally gave in and walked across the street to Cold Stone Creamery and got a Ghiradeli Chocolate Caramel Dream. I could have saved myself a lot of stress if I had done that on Wednesday. I would have more of those 100 calorie packs left for treats. I've learned, never ignore a craving. It really does cost too much in the way of calories.
I feel less physically tense since I had the ice cream earlier. This is just way too weird. I wonder if this is how drug addicts feel. Does it ever go away or am I just plagued to have cravings that drive me nuts?
Now that I can actually focus I will get some more crochet done. I started out pretty good right after I got laid off then I got depressed. I was up and down more down than up and now I'm behind on what I wanted to get accomplished. I felt guilty just sitting here crocheting. I didn't really do much else. In fact, I even let the guilt of not having to go to work keep me from exercising. I hate being depressed and I hope I am done with it for a while.
So on my crochet list is a ripple baby afghan in white, soft green, and pink. Once that one is done I'll start another one in primary colors. I'm not sure what pattern I will use. I also have a purse and a pillow to make for an exchange. I'm probably going to do an original for the pillow using some novelty yarns. I will probably knit the purse. I don't knit much and it is a good change for my hands. I've been working on a crochet jewelry design I call Petals on a Pad.
So now that I've had my ice cream I think I will get back to the work of life.
