So I use to be really active at the gym and had lost about 20lbs then I got pregnant with G. All workouts stopped. I had G and in the process tore/sprain/strained/etc my abs. About 2 months ago I decided to try to slowly workout again. Due to the kids and work I only get to the gym maybe once a week. Sometimes I am lucky and go more. I also started ( Read more... )

So there might be a chance that I get a belt. This has my mind in a whirl especially since its a red belt. Something I never in my life thought I would be offered. The only thing I thought I even had a chance at (and I wasn't holding my breath) was a yellow belt. As most of you know I come from an area that doesn't do a whole lot with fealty. So I ( Read more... )

Ky is 6 today! its hard to believe! Her party went well on Sat. She loved horseback riding on Tuesday. She giggled every time the horse trotted. Today its presents and b-day dinner. She can choose any restaurant or have me cook anything. Thus far she has told me she wants TV dinners - what a strange kid!

1) still haven't talked to RJ's Dad - 1st off he hasn't called RJ in 2 weeks 2) I have been avoiding writing up my list of questions - I have done it in my head a million times but still have not written them down and due to how emotionally charged this is I won't talk to Dave with out having the questions to look at. And yes I know I am avoiding ( Read more... )

I am have lots of anxiety about RJ. The original agreement I had made with his Dad was that RJ would move and live with him starting in 8th grade. Over the last few years I have indicated to him that 9th would be better for RJ academically and maturity wise. And since his Dad didn't take him last xmas. I was came under the false belief that that ( Read more... )

G turned 6 months yesterday. i can't believe how much time has flown by. He can get around a room pretty well now by rolling and has once or twice inched forward by accident doing an army crawl. He sits by himself pretty well until he gets excited or over reaches his balance. He experiments with his voice quite often with screams squeaks, laughs ( Read more... )

has sucked me in. So I am not here as often. I always had a hard time writing here. Feeling like I only should say important things not inane. Ok so maybe I was the only thinking my thoughts were inane, but still. somehow facebook eliminates my anxiety. Also sometimes I wouldn't post here because it was only a sentence or two - which is perfect ( Read more... )

As I sit here and type one handed due to a sleeping baby in my lap, I am thinking about can I make my life more than just surviving everyday and if so how? How do I enrich myself, my life with out taking energy away from my kids? Nor can I sleep less. I need to find something that I want to learn that I can be passionate about, that ideally has a ( Read more... )

Try out an experiment on myself.I am terrible about buy things for myself. This morning is a great example - my Dad sent me a Kohl's card for my b-day. I went this morning and bought stuff for G - nothing for me. So we got some prepaid visa cards as a Thank you for changing gas companies. I decided I have to spend them on frivolous stuff. So far I ( Read more... )
