{Wasting Breath}

I feel like every single word I say to Dawn is just me talking to a wall. Last Wednesday I made a deal with her to try to improve her behavior both at home and at school. I told her that for starters if she could go until that Friday without getting grounded at home or in trouble at school, she would get ungrounded. After being grounded for getting yet another detention for her behavior at school....

{ #weightwaters Week 7}

Well ladies, a loss is a loss. Even if it's only .4lb. So over all, since I started, I've lost 4lb. -.- I'll take it though. It's not a gain and I didn't just maintain. Which annoys me to no end. I am starting to see changes in my body though. D's sweats are getting too big for me. Not that they've ever really fit, but now they're starting to really hang off of me :) I have a pair of yoga pants...

{ #weightwatchers Week 6}

OK girls I have got to get my eating under control. I'm having a very hard time staying within my points lately and it needs to stop. There for a while I was doing really well. If I went over it was only by a point or 2 but lately I'm using my extra points as a way to snack on unhealthy foods. Its no...

{ #weightwatchers Week 5}

Well guys I got back on track this week and lost!! I was 205.2 (I think) last week and I am currently 204.0 :) I need toremember to stay away from salty foods. That does me in every single time. So no more!! I've also decided to step up my activity. After D goes to bed in the morning I'm going to attempt a couple work out DVDs I've got. I might turn to YouTube for a little Jillian Michaels too. We...

{Now & Then}

Sometimes when I look at where we are now and where we were a few years ago...it makes me want to cry. D has worked some shitty jobs for shitty pay and shitty hours over the last 10 years. We have had some pretty rocky moments in our relationship too. For the longest time we were struggling so much and just couldn't get a break that I honestly thought this was how my life was going to be forever....

{Today Didnt Suck}

This morning started off pretty crappy. I got up semi early and got little ready for school. We were doing good on time for the first time in a long time lol. But then my luck took a nose dive and so did I. Our back porch is covered in snow and ice. Its not super slick but because the snow is covering...

{ #weightwatchers week 4}

Uuuuugh. I had a gain this week you guys. I am so disappointed in myself. I was doing so good and really tracking and staying away from all the shitty food. But then I fell back into old habits and couldn't stop eating the wrong food. I know where I went wrong though and I am fully prepared to really...

{I am so Lazy}

The Christmas tree Gaige put up in the toy room, is still up. Why? Because I'm too lazy to go up there and take it down lol. I had Dawn go up there and take off the ornaments. But the tree itself is still plugged in and up. And when I went up earlier, I realized that "hey the bottom part of the tree is dark". So I think I might just chuck that one and put up another one up there next year. It'd save...
