Busy weekend…….

My weekend was crazy! Two birthday parties, and my baby sister and her her two kids were up from Virginia! I didn’t journal my food, but think I did okay with portion control.

Saturday I was down 5 of the 10 I had put on. I am hoping for the other 5 this week, but if not I know it will be something. Look out onederland here I come!! I am back with a vengence!!

I hope that everyone has an amazing week!!

Big HUGS

Being good to myself……..

It has been awhile since my last blog. The last couple I was really down. I then went on a two week pity party! While I did that I gained back 10 lbs.! I sure didn’t feel very good about that! What did I think I was going to accomplish? I am not quite sure about that! I do know that it is sure a lot easier to put on than to take off!

I have been back on track now since Sunday. I know I feel so much better eating right!

I know I can’t let all the things around me that are out of my control do this to me. Eating right and excercise are something that I can control. I will be in onderland before you know it!

I was so ashamed of what I was doing I didn’t come to Buddyslim like I should have! I know that I need the support of my buddies here as much as I need to give it!

I am not sure how much of the weekend I will get a chance to be on here, but I will be on when I can. My sister is up from Virginia and having a surprise Birthday party for my step-mother tomorrow and then tomorrow night we are having a bon-fire for my middle son’s 25th Birthday.

I hope everyone is having an amazing week and a super weekend!

Big HUGS!!

Where do I begin…….

I am having a hard time making time for me once again! I know it is important for me time in order to reach my goals. Sometimes there are just to many things going on in my life to do that.

My husband’s mother passed away in January but where we live they had to wait until the ground thawed for the burial. Her burial was on Saturday. My husband and kids have been very emotional with this. I have been trying to be there for them. I did not have a good relationship with my mother in law, but it was my husbands mother and my son’s grandmother, so I am doing what I need to do for them.

My 9 year old grandson Cody has a lot of issues that are pulling the family apart. When he was 5 he was very sick. He developed Transverse Myelitis. Not only did it affect him physically it has affected him emotionally. He has a hard time not doing the things he wants to do. He has a lot of behavioural issues that affect the whole family. It is really taking a toll at home with my oldest son and his wife and the other children.  I am trying to be there for them too. I am on Spring Break starting on Friday and I will be having Cody for most of my break. He is usually really good for me when he by himself away from the other children. I think it will do him some good to have some just Cody time!

I have also just found out over the weekend that my youngest son’s g/f is pregnant. He is 20 she is 19 they are both the laziest kids you want to see. Neither of them work and have no motivation. We will see what happens now!

I am trying to take care of me, but right now, I am more going with the flow than anything else, just trying to keep sane!

I hope you are all having a great week!

Biggest HUGS Ever!
