So from a one day binge I gained nearly 5 pounds. My body is truly a fat storing machine and hates me. I weighed this much last September! I've lost 9 months worth of hard work in one week! If that isn't the definition of a body that hates me, I don't know what is. :-p

But I am not giving up. I didn't get as far as I have by giving up. I just have to get it through my thick skull that I have to behave!

Friday Brad and I drove to the bank so I could deposit the check I got from cashing in my vacation money, then walked along the shoreline in Oakland for 2 hours. It was so hot I could wear shorts and a tank top. After that we went shopping - I badly needed groceries.

Saturday after church we dropped another box of stuff off at Goodwill, then walked once around the lake. I had bugged Brad on Friday about my upcoming move and that he said he would help and so far hadn't. He decided to tackle the mini blinds Saturday afternoon. We determined that the cats wrecked three of the five blinds in the apartment, and what the sizes were. Then we were off to WalMart to buy new blinds, some cleaning supplies, and I also bought some Alli. With the Alli the whole thing came to $120! Yike!

Brad began to install the blinds, but it was getting late and he promised me a cheese plate and a glass of wine at New Zealander to help me de-stress, so we did that. Then we came back and he worked on the mini blinds while I prepared food for today at work, and Boca burgers for dinner last night.

It got to be really late and he had only two blinds done with one more to go, and one that he soaked in the bathtub to clean. I suggested he spend the night. I made us coffee and eggs this morning (all whites for me, one yolk for him).

We had another apartment to look at today but first he drove me to the gym to work out while he walked around the lake and surrounding area. I did upper body - arms, shoulders, and back, and ran for 30 minutes on the treadmill.

I was late getting out and we rushed to look at the apartment. This one was a very large one bedroom, on the edge of a bad area with prostitute hotels a half block away. The apartment was old (not always a bad thing), but it needed a lot of work, work the tenant was expected to do.

After that Brad dropped me off a ways from work so I could walk the rest of the way in, and he dropped off my backpack and computer for me. He said he was going back to my apartment and do more work (like finish the remaining mini blind).

My "best bet" is $725 per month, and I have to pay water (they only cover garbage). The liaison, Colleen, contacted me Saturday afternoon and said I had passed the credit check and that the owner would now be contacting my employer and checking references. I had to explain that my boss was on vacation and that Brad was the interim manager. Brad was with me and silently wrote down his numbers to give to Colleen. The owner will probably call him tomorrow, so I am still in "wait and see" mode.
