Gifts for Girls

It was a busy morning. Emma woke super early before the light of day. I brought her into my room but she didn’t want to sleep. Tried to lull her into watching the lava lamp which she always likes. I was hoping she’d close eyes and return to sleep for an hour but she wouldn’t [...]

Decisions

Back in November I made an appointment with my old shrink Dr. Z. It’s today. I was going to see if he’d put me back on the meds I used to take. I kept thinking that I’m too hyped up and that the benefit of weight loss would outweigh any risks of being on those [...]

Party Today!

Sarah’s party is this afternoon and I just finished getting all my crap in order for it. I can’t find my heated heart massager thing though. Ugh! What is up with my losing shit all the time lately? I still haven’t found one of my friends’ orders. I KNOW it is in a brown bag [...]

Let’s Keep It Like This

Yep, Stanley Steemer was here and gone in an hour. Billy’s probably going to be pissed because I got suckered into the scotchguard so it was $195 instead of just $123. The guy said that the scotchguard keeps the stains from sinking deeply into the carpet and becoming permanent. Heck, what can I say? I [...]

Little Prisoners

I went out today on a mission – get a baby gate for the new wider opening between the living room and the kitchen. Mission accomplished! I found one at Target for more than I really wanted to spend but it is wide enough to cover the opening and tall enough to last for awhile. [...]

Well I’m up three pounds and back at a whopping 184 pounds from last Wednesday. That’s just great, huh? I’m not giving up though. I think part of it is that I’ve been eating too much salt and not exercising like I wanted, too. Billy has been sick and I had a sore throat. Lots [...]

Shopping Fun

It’s a cold day and the weather freaks were calling for snow again but I don’t see anything. I took Emma to preschool without any problems. Thought about going to Target but on a whim decided to drive through a part of town I rarely see because I know my sister lives somewhere in that [...]

Banana Muffins & Fruit Salad

Yeah, maybe that’s not exactly diet food but I did decrease the amount of sugar called for in the muffins and they were made from scratch by me. So how bad could that be? The girls are loving them. I made them mini style and let them eat in the living room because this drafty [...]

Got to Get Out

We were snowed in yesterday and one day of that is enough for me. I’ve fed us all and gotten Cate dress and we’re getting out of here once I get myself ready and Emma.
Cate is such a handful. She just knocked down a baby gate. Little brute. She told me she wanted to [...]

For Better or for Worse

I went back to bed and slept hard. Had a horrible dream though. I don’t know what is up with my dreaming lately. In this one, I found out Billy cheated on me with his friend Ben’s wife, Heather. He admitted it to me after we all had dinner together. I was shocked and then [...]
