I can not believe that it's already Saturday! This means I have to go back to work on Monday. That, quit frankly, sucks! I enjoyed being home with my ladies ... and I didn't even spend that much money, I was totally frugle. I know, hard to believe. Ah well, at least I'm off from school until the 18th.
So last night I was home for new years eve, this is a first since ... wow! I think since before I was 21 at least. Even during my pregnancies I was over friends houses or something. I stayed in and tended to my sick R, she's doing great though and the only tough part is taking her antibotics. I wish there was a way to make those taste better. Today for the first day of the new year I was all diligent in my effort to stick with the WW (weight watchers). I joined up a week or so ago, the holidays are tough time to be doing this but hell, I quit smoking cold turkey back in August ... this should be doable! So sure I was great today up until I got to my sisters house. Her and her husband were having an open house type New Years day celebration with nommys and goodies and ... well really anything that comes out of that mans kitchen is "the worlds best ..." feel free to fill in the blank. So there was chili and lasagna and crab dip and harvey wallbanger cake and oh GEESUZ! Heavan in a kitchen, BUT I only went one point over for the day, so realy not that bad if you think a bout it (check me out, justifying this whole thing).
R got sick again. I don't know what it is that's making her throw up, I haven't given her the vicodin since 8 AM. It might be the anti-b. She's not hungry at all, will attempt to eat but wow ... I've not seen her eat so little since she was 4 months old. And her eyes are all drawn and surrounded by pinky tones, but it just make them look that much more green. The kids played hide and seek and I got to chill with the grown ups. This was fabulous because it doesn't happen much. We took off around 5 and the kids slept all the way home. Then we just chilled a bit, I went through M's drawers and got some size 3t's together for a friend of mine, M is growing quite a bit lately. And I feel as though I'm doing a pointless play by play here LOL
Anyway ... there's all these things I want to accomplish during the day (and night) but there's just not enough time. I also find myself putting feelings away that I believe might need to be addressed. Internal feelings about self, about love ... yeah ... about those things.
For another time I think.
Weight Watchers....such a good program. I could so use that right now. I'm not working nights now, so my big goal is to get up early and walk for an hour every morning before the day begins. Congratulations on stopping smoking. That is a HUGE victory in one's life. Wow. And night time nursing school. And two babies to care for, and working.... You are amazing.
ReplyDeleteLOL Amazing?meh ... dunno know bout that ... it's a neccesity :)
ReplyDeleteAnd actually I think you're amazing for what you do ... you have the kids, the home, the husband and the struggles of recovery and addiction in the family. I am amazed with the way you are gentle with yourself and you continue to work your program, WE are amazing!
