intermittent fasting and sunset #42 of 52

Jul 20, 2023

This diet — low carb combined with intermittent fasting — works. The bad news is, I’m HANGRY. This only eating between 11:00 AM and 7:00 PM sucks. I want food at 10:30 or so… even something low in calories would be just fine. But nope. Ya get nada. 🤐

I like helping people but don’t want to be taken advantage of.

I got a text from someone wanting to borrow $100 bucks. I’m a softie and have a hard time saying “no” — and the promise was to pay me back the very next morning. He said he hated to ask and was in a real bind. Honestly, I thought I would get a text the next day saying it would take longer… blah blah blah.

I’m not a bank and this person isn’t really a close friend. Thing is, I knew this dude would pay me back if he could. Everybody has a tough time sometimes so I took a chance. The next morning by 10:30 AM there was a knock on the door… right on time with repayment and garden veggies.

I would’ve been disappointed and probably felt taken advantage of if not repaid. But it sure did feel good when he did what he said he would do and I knew I helped someone out.

Sunset #42 of 52… I think I’m going to make it, you guys!

UPDATE:

Found this on my porch 2 days later. How cool is that?
