Friday Random Thoughts

Somehow I've managed to gain 12 pounds over the last couple of months.
It probably has something to do with me eating whatever I want whenever and not logging my food into my food journal.
I'm back to sparkpeople.com - my lifestyle babysitter.  

I've signed up for lots of overtime this next week, and I'll sign up for everything I can until they stop offering it which will be in February probably.  I want to get that tree trimming job paid off and start getting back to a positive savings account balance.

My daughter says she's seriously thinking of moving back home this spring.  
I miss her company so much, but I do have some mixed feelings about this.  
Mostly because it's another "mouth to feed" as she is not self-sufficient yet.  
All alone I can manage, but having another to provide for makes things difficult.  
When she lived with me I had two jobs - I really don't want to go back to that.  
Her living here will mean aquiring another vehicle and insuring it for starters.  I will have the truck paid off in July, so I can give her that and buy another vehicle for myself.  I'd hate to continue having a vehicle payment - but whatever it takes I guess. 
I feel guilty for feeling this way.  I need to have more of a "can do" attitude about this.

I am eating awesomely fresh Collards out of my garden now.  Now that the weather is chilly the winter stuff is starting to take off.  I've picked a few spinach leaves, but they aren't really ready.  I am enjoying all the various baby veggies I've thinned from the rows.  I'm very grateful for the garden.  I couldn't afford to buy this stuff in the grocery store.
