Thirsty Thursday

Well not really just the only name I came up with. I really wish I was thirsty so I could get all of my water in. Well I haven't posted since Monday's weigh in. I LOST ANOTHER 1.5 LBS!!! Now down 5 LBS!! WOO HOOO!!! I'm getting there I have another 10 lbs to be under 200 and I and making that a celebration day!! Took Braxton to the dr. it feels like a weekly thing. He has a viral infection, so there is nothing I can do for it just wait it out. He has a awful rash ALL over him that looks bad and looks like it would itch sooo bad but she said it don't. But anyway it looks like the weather is fixing to get REALLY ugly here so I will wrap it up and try to get some work done. LATER!

Is it Monday again??

Yes I guess it is, but it is almost over. I have WW tonight, didnt get to go last week Braxton was sick and had to run and get him something for it. Sooo I am sure tonight will be really ugly!! I have kinda fell off the band wagon so I HAVE to get back on. We have set our date for our vacation and it is fastly approching. We are going to Florida(ugh) in May (did I mention I HATE Florida) anyway, Jonathan loves it and I want to try to get some good shots of Braxton on the beach and some new family pics so I guess I will just tuck in my bottom lip and go along. I just hate sand, being in a bathing suit in public, being in the sun for no apparant reason, sweating and just being icky but I guess after I get down there and shop it will make it all better!! :)

Middle of the week- Catch up






Ok, so much has happened since I last blogged I dont even know where to being. Last Fri. at work was such a bad day, I was sooo glad for it to be over and just go home. I got home and we decided to run to Wal Mart and pick up a few things. We got home and got settled in and Braxton went to sleep so we laid him on our bed as we always do and put pillows around him while we do other chores before bed. Jonathan was washing dishes while i was working on Braxtons birthday invites on the computer when I heard a loud thud. I thought the thud was Jonathan in the kitchen and about that time my heart dropped and this loud scream came out!! It was Braxton, he had crawled off of our bed and hit the floor on his back. I had no idea if he had hit his head or what so i freaked out and got dressed and we had our first ER visit. They said he should be fine and just to watch him.

Sat. morning we woke up to snow!! Yeah I know, snow in Mississippi is VERY rare. We went to Granny's and sewed all day and then I went out to eat with mom and Granny while Ms. Betsy watched Braxton, Jonathan was at the deer camp. She said she heard something strange but just assummed it was the heat cutting on about 20 min later she looked towards our front door and there was water running across the floor. The hose going to the ice maker had popped of and water flooded our house luckly it didnt get into any of the bedrooms but Jonathan mopped all night and we had 20 soaking wet towels after it was all said and done.

Sun. something was bothering Braxton and we got 2 hours of sleep all night..


Monday I was out of gas and drove Jonathans truck to work and left my WW's stuff at home so I didnt weigh in which was probably good after the weekend I had I fell off the band wagon. Now just to get back on track and do better.. Now its Wed. and I am just now catching up and catching up on my sleep but it will all work out in the end. Just think it could have been SOOO much worse!!

Thursday! Will it ever end??


I will start off with some GREAT news Braxton took his first steps last night!!! YEAH!! He took 2 steps from me to my mom and then 3 and then FIVE!! Dad wasnt there to see it so when we got home and Braxton was asleep so of course he had to wake him up to see the action!! Anyway he did it for him to he walked to him and Jonathan was SOOO excited!! Now for today!!

Today has been a HORRIBLE day. I just hope it ends soon!! Work has been HELL and everything at work IS HELL!! Just to find another job would be great but then i would probably have something to complain about there too!! O Well you can't always be happy i guess!

Hump Day

So its finally Wednesday!! I have so much to do at work but I just cannot get motivated. Anyway I did good with my exercise yesterday and last night and did good with my food. I walked durning lunch almost a mile and then last night I did my DVD but still didnt finish the whole work out. Its raining today so i guess that is going to scratch the walking at lunch routine but I do have a huge glass of water with me and I am drinking it all by 5:00. I made the WW devil food cake with the diet coke last night and I must say it is WONDERFUL!! It is sooo moist and yummy!! Jonathan and i did sit ups last night after my DVD so he is doing good with his food too. Just not working out but he gets plenty of exercise at work!! Braxton even had some of the WW devils food cake mix and loved it. It worked out great because it didnt have eggs in it so he could eat the raw batter!! This morning its cold and yucky out side so I wish I was at home in bed but I guess having a job is much better!! Later!! Oh yeah and i finally posted my NASTY "before" pictures!! I know you are sooo excited!!

READY, SET, EAT WW STYLE

Ok so I finally started back to Weight Watchers. Last night I went to the first meeting of my new life. I weighed in at 214 which is not as much as I weighed before when I started the first time so that was a plus but its still way over what I want to weigh. Sooo I watch Biggest Looser and I decided if they can do it so can I. Soo if they can get on National TV and show there fat to the world and it makes them loose weight then so can I. So, I got Jonathan to take pictures of me to make myself sick every time I look at them. This morning I didnt eat breakfast (I know really bad) I started at a bad time I don't go to the grocery time Thrus. so there is nothing in the house I want to waste my points on. I have drank 2 glasses of water today which is by far WAY better than what I normally do. For lunch I ate a cup of chili and 5 crackers now to decide on what to scrounge up for supper.

Finally Friday

Well its finally friday again!! WOO HOO!! Didn't think it could get here quick enough! Braxton is on antibotics again to knock out this upper resp. problem and hopefully he will fully recover and the weather will straighten out and we will be done with all this sickness!!

Monday we have a check up with the Ears Nose and Throat Spec. to check on the tubes he put in so wont be at work!! YEAH!! (Do a little dance here)

Anyway not much going on in my world. Trying to decided on wether or not to try out for the design team as ASF!! I think i will wait until I get alittle more scrappin under my belt and can get better at doing my own thing. As of right now i just basically scrap lift but hey its my scrapbook and as long as I am happy who cares!!

Back to the grinding stone

Sooo its a NEW YEAR and I am back to work! Fun Fun!! Anyway we had a good New Years Eve. Went to bed around 2:30 but we had some fun times with friends that was def. needed. Braxtons love the fireworks even though I was too cheap to buy very many so I only spent 20.00 and got 2 fireworks. Yeah they were the big ones but still 2/20.00 is just rediculous!! I now remember why I hate them, they are a rip off but hey it was his first NYE so I had to get at least some he could see and enjoy. Next time I think I will just wait and take him to a Braves game on Fri. night get WAY more than two and its not even 20.00.

We also have another new tooth so that makes 2 now(the bottom) two. He is feeling really puney bless his heart he is just not the same when he is quite and not active but hopefully he will be better tomorrow and back to himself.

I do have pic.'s to post but I left my camera at home so I will have to work on those tomorrow..

NY's resolutions:
1. To only go shopping once a month for anything other than grocerys(2x's a mth)
2. pay off the credit card
3. stick to Weight Watchers this time and become healthy (notice I didn't say diet)
4. To have mommy time at least once a week
5. Save money and prove to my husband I CAN!!
