I'm happy to report I'm feeling much better emotionally. Except now both Dad and I have nasty fall colds. I had an interview yesterday and luckily it really didn't hit me until it was over (we were going to go to a movie last night but neither Dad nor me could stand up without swaying around and could barely focus so we postponed it). I prefer being sick around my Mom or Dad versus anyone else so I stayed the night again. Also I work tomorrow and it's just a shorter bus ride from here to work so I might as well stay.
My Dad has decided to really try to loose weight, so we are going to the grocery store so we can make some different foods for him to freeze and reheat throughout the week. He has the tendency to eat the same things or when he doesn't feel like cooking ordering a pizza. I'm determined to make him eat vegetables. This really fulfills the eating disordered foodie in me. I know I will be making him food for freezing even at my apartment.
I signed up for the October fast for Hungry For Change. I won't be able to go past the 11th since that is Canadian Thanksgiving, and I know Dad will want to do something. Even though we never end up eating everything we make, it's more about just the family time. And the cats eating about 80% of the turkey (since I'm a vegan, and Dad just finds it easier to put it on the floor instead of carving and saving it, LOL)
And as I wrote this out I got another call for an interview. The place is much closer to where I live which would be a definite bonus. I will know tomorrow night if I got the job at the first place, so I'm unsure what to do. But whatever, I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.
Wow! Good luck with the interview. :D I am the same way with my boyfriend as you are with your dad; I really want him to eat healthier. My boyfriend is naturally underweight, but I still think it negatively affects his health when he eats a bunch of crap. I've got him taking a multi-vitamin and at least having grapes and apples now, lol. Long way to go though.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the interview! And I hope the other one went well. And I agree with you and the commenter above, my boyfriend eats like crap it's terrible. Anyway good luck with the fast :) Harley x
