playing catch up

I have thought about posting everyday and it seems like I never to find the time...  It makes me sad, because I hoped to use this blog as a journal and I feel like I NEED to share some of the things that happen everyday.  I love journaling.  I enjoy reading through the thoughts and experiences I've had in the past.  It helps me remember and it helps me gain perspective on how things are different and how some things never change...

Ok, now that that's out of the way, I am commiting to MYSELF that I will do better about posting.  It is all about me, you know!  :-)

Things have been going well.  Weight wise, I am officially under 210.  208.8 to be exact.  So close to onederland I can almost taste it!!  Also, I bought a REAL size 16 dress yesterday!  Sizes are so different I am anywhere from a 14 - 18 pant and about an 18/20 or XL shirt.  I feel great.  :-)

We had a blast last weekend!  We went boating with my Mom's side of the family on Thurday.  I rode a jet ski!  Very fun and VERY scary for me, but I was glad I did it.  We swam and played and had a great time.  Then that night I went to the midnight show of Harry Potter.  I've actually seen it 3 times now!  LOL!  It's great!!  It was all I hoped for!  Saturday and Suday Nick and I went to Cincinatti for the Reds/Cardinals series.  We had a lot of fun.  We walked around downtown a bit and our hotel was nice.

Nick is doing awesome.  He is finally over his stall.  He was stuck at 226 for a few weeks and finally had a 4 pound loss last week, so he's happy!  My Mom looks amazing!  Kathy is doing great with weight watchers!  I am going over to my brother's tonight to help him with a weight loss stategy.  It's good stuff!  I love seeing the people I love get healthy! 

Work is still work.  I am having a great time with school and that's getting me through right now.  I am just hanging in there trying to lay low until things get better.  I still have a job and I am so grateful for that!  :-)

Things are going generally outstanding!
