Good Morning and Happy Father’s Day to all the
wonderful men out there who are, or are considered to be, a father. You play a special role in a child’s
life. I hope you enjoy your special day. I am lucky to have a wonderful father,
grandfather, and father-in-law in my life.
We will celebrate later today with dessert at my grandparent’s house.
I am sorry I didn’t check in with you
yesterday. I am sort of in a bit of a
funk. I think I’ll write more of what
has been going on inside my head later this week. Still sorting out the feelings and in the
meantime trying to stay on
track. After a few meals out and some
less-than-stellar eating, I prepared a healthy meal last night and also
prepared leftovers to bring to work today for my overtime shift. I’m working hard to adjust my attitude.

| I saw two hot air balloons out on Saturday |
Since I was having some “down feelings” on
Friday and just feeling frumpy I knew I needed to get to aWW meeting on
Saturday morning. My hopes were to be
able to see Donna, who works as the receptionist on Saturdays at the meeting by
my house. I woke up at 6am and sent
Kenyon a text, which was just getting off work, to see if he wanted to go to
breakfast. I am fully aware that
negative feelings + eating out = disaster and yet I really wanted to meet for
breakfast. Thankfully Kenyon is an easy
sell so we met at The Original Pancake House for a bite to eat. On a side note, the lady at the restaurant
commented on our matching personalized license plates saying it was “very cute.” Yes, we are one of those couples!
While my thought process, along with some
lingering negative feeling, told me pancakes would make me feel better, the
conscious side of my brain told me that probably wasn’t the best remedy. I know the pancakes at OPH are good so yesterday
I went for the home style potatoes instead with my eggs and bacon. They have the BEST bacon at OPH. Go there…stat!

I was a little late to the WW meeting and was
sad to see there was no Donna to be found.
Since she works every other Saturday, yesterday was not her day to
work. I sat in the back row of the
meeting but I just feel “off” the entire five minutes I was there. So I left. Sigh.
I’ll
tell ya, this funk I am in isn’t pretty.
I had plans to go to the Farmer’s Market to
kill some time and get in a forced walk at the same time. I also wanted to pick up a fresh homemade pie
for our Father’s Day dessert. A nap
sounded sooooo good and I almost skipped my downtown adventures. Thankfully I wised up, got ready for the day,
and headed downtown. I had plans after
to meet my Mom in Nampa.
Downtown was BUSY. I wasn’t aware there were so many things
going on, including Boise Pride. I would
have loved to stay and watch the Pride Parade but I had already made plans with
my Mom. I walked to the Capitol just
before the rally started. It was really
neat to see the steps of the Capitol decked out in rainbow. You don’t see that very often in Idaho.
I swing by Flying M for coffee on my way out of
town. They were also showing their Pride
support with these adorable cookies.
The guy behind the counter had a shirt on that
said “proud to be an IDAHOmo”. Ha. Loved
it!
I met Mom in Nampa for some errands and to try
out the new Paniera Bread. I’ve never
been to one despite all our travels. It
was really good and I’ll be back for sure.
Fresh baked bread = Heaven! Mom
and I split two different sandwiches and really liked both of them.
I’m at work today on overtime, despite the
extra money already being spent.
Doh! I’ve been on a bit of a
spending kick lately. Need to rein that
in.
