sheepishly popping in

Hi - Yes I am still here... since my last little rant and stomping of feet I went down 1/2 pound.  I will be weighing in on Wednesday - yes I am a die hard... I rant but keep on, keeping on. 
I had a down day today - its that female thing - it always takes the wind out of my sails.  Hopefully tomorrow I will have a day of accomplishments instead of a day on the couch aching from head to foot, blurred vision and ignoring the phone. 
Yesterday I stepped on the scale unofficially and I was down about 4 lbs - I really really hope it shows up like that on the official weigh in. 
I need to find my mojo in everything.  I am behind in paperwork, have done ZERO Christmas gifts, haven't decorated my house yet, haven't written and sent my Christmas letter yet... Yeah I am really a lump on a log right now.  Not depressed... just feeling a little swamped.
I have inspiration I just need the energy to get it done.
One day at a time...
P.S. what would you do if you had someone consistently complaining about something ( a lot of it is legit) but if that person would try to find the good things in day to day... and stop trying to be a perfectionist and wanting everyone else to be perfect around them... yes, I am getting brought down by this.  AND I try to say things gently about it but the person takes things very personally and thinks I am against them too.  *sigh*   I get called 6+ times a day about some complaint or other... to the point where my hubby doesn't wanting me to answer the phone - but I do.
I love them dearly but its very discouraging and I think my listening is becoming an enabler.
