This blog is probably going to be long and rambling…….

This has been a long and stress filled week. So much going on. Some good, some bad and some things I am just not sure about!

I had a great weight loss this week! I lost those 8 lbs. I had put back on with my long fall off track. I am so excited about that! I have started back with my food journal as that is the only way I can really stay on plan!

My stress included my hubby’s colonoscopy. Thank God that turned out fine.

I am still having issues with my youngest son! 19 years old, quit school, won’t work and having g/f trouble all the time. He has a cell phone that we pay for so we can keep in contact, he hardly ever calls and if I call I usually get his voice mail. He then tells me it was dead…..grrrrrr. He keep talking of moving to VA with his Aunt, my youngest sister. I think in a way it would be a good move. I think to get him away from his so called friends and thatĀ  girl is what he needs!

Then my middle son and his g/f of about 2 months come over the other night and announce she is pregnant! He is married and not divorced! He has a childĀ from another woman before his marriage. The mother of this child is a fruit loop! She was letting us see our grandaughter and my son was taking on the weekends and then all of a sudden she stopped. She is trying to say my son punishes his daughter when he has her! His punishment consists of time out! Same thing I use when I have her. She is 4 and believe me she is a very active child use to getting her own way! Her mother complains how hard she is to handle but uses no corrective measures what so ever! I am so tired of her crap! We never got to see her for Christmas! This weekend she is allowing us to come see her at her home! I will have to remind myself to keep my trap shut! I will probably bite my tongue so hard it will have a hole in it! My son is doing paper work today for visitation!

All of this stress has played big time in my life! I have done a lot of self talk and haven’t done to bad…….well except yesterday! I went over by about 200 calories, but I journaled it anyways!

I am so glad today is Friday! It is so boring sitting home! I can’t wait until I can go back to work! I can’t wait until I can excercise! At least on the weekends I have hubby and usually one of my grandkids! This weekend we may have my 9 year old grandson, Cody!

I hope you all had a great week and have an even better weekend!

Big HUGS!

    I’m very proud of you girl for losing that 8 lbs!! Whoo hoo what a job!

    You know i’ve come to the conclusion that kids are put here to drive us nuts. It gets to the point that you say “whatever”. Kind of what i’ve been doing lately. Always drama, always something.
    Hang in there girl..one day at a time with the kids/adults

    Wow, 8 pounds! Awesome! And with so much going on, it’s even more impressive. I’m sorry there is so much drama! It can be so aggravating. At some point you need to step back and realize what is your responsibility and what is not, and that there are some things that you can’t have control over. It can be difficult to do, but it becomes necessary for your mental health!

    Don’t get me started on the visitation issue, ugh. That makes me so angry. I can’t stand when kids are used like weapons. I am glad your son seems to be trying to handle that with visitation paperwork. Sad that it’s even necessary to fight a parent to love a child!
