Reboot

[sacredchao]

This month will be one of abstinence (in some ways). I've started the detox diet and so I will have very real restrictions on what I can eat for the next three weeks. No booze, caffeine, wheat, soy or dairy. Nothing from the nightshade family which apparently includes potato, sweet potato, chilli, capsicum and eggplant. After that I'm going to try to keep my intake down and look at what exercise I might be capable of come August. The booze prohibition will lift come August but gently and with care.

I have an interview tomorrow for a permanent position doing what I'm doing now on secondment. I'm a pretty good chance to get this but I'm counting no chickens. I would like it though.

More annoyingly, I lost my purse on Saturday afternoon. The usual round of card replacement and swearing is ongoing. I discovered that it was gone just as I walked out the door on Saturday evening. It was especially annoying as I was feeling good about going out, especially after the particularly good night I had on Friday. Oh well. I'm at least feeling far more comfortable in myself and that can only be a good thing.

I have fancied doing a detox diet of some sort myself. Or just work on a series of disciplined fasts!

Sorry about the purse! I had my pocket picked in Italy--what a nightmare that was, although the number of cards was minimal since I was on vacation and didn't bring them all. We'd had such a great afternoon to have it spoiled by thieves was annoying.

Fingers crossed, prayers upward for the new position. I would think a permanent posting would benefit the psyche greatly.
