Yes, I'm still alive.....

It has been forever I know. Update on weight - up two during TOM, back down 2 the week after that. Next weigh in is tomorrow. We kept the Wednesday date but moved the weight loss challenge to an earlier time. If my measurement were correct I ahve lost 11 inches overall since I started this weight loss challange.

I've been having one of those weeks where I want to strangle people. Could be that it is too hot and we lost power the other afternoon through night (ugh!). Could be that it is too close to summer and no extra income in for the next 3 months - nah I'm ok with that. Could be that it is too close to summer and the girls are already driving me batty and they aren't even out of school yet......DING DING DING we have a winner. I think it is this plus the 'I don't think I am eating enough during the day' headaches I have been getting. I've been keeping track of my foods this past week and I figured that even with my snacks I am sometimes only eating about 1200 to 1400 calories a day. I'm pretty sure that is less than it should be which would explain why I feel crappy some days. So I'm trying to figure out how to get that up higher without eating a bunch of crap that isn't good for me. I've been knitting a lot lately to get rid of stress. Hubby has been complaining that I don't spend time with him anymore and all I am doing is reading journals, reading books or knitting. Yup, I tried but the games he wants to play on the comp are ones we have to pay a monthly fee for and we don't have the money to spend for 2 of us to get on there like he wants at the moment. I give up........can I resign as mom/wife??????

So I've reverted to listening to music from the 80's/early 90's - yes the New kids on the block. *Sigh* I loved them and now they are back together. I know I am pathetic but I can't help it. I even have been looking into going to a concert when they hit the Detroit area. And dragging my friends that I went to a concert back in '92 at the Breslin Center in East Lansing with. Gotta love BFF's! Well I need to eat something and get ready for work - my last day until next school year. Tomorrow is my younger 2 girls parties in the afternoon. Both of which I am room mom for their classes and they are both at the same time. Do you see why my stress level is so high right now?? Too much stuff and notenough hands or time for me to think. Which is why I have been doing mindless things like knitting and reading - duh! 2.5 days left of school THANK GOD! Later my Jland friends. :) ~Hugs~Jen~
