Week 9 - Wednesday - I'm ready for bed!

I had a good morning and most of my afternoon was good, but busy. Right before I left for work it got ugly. WHAT Fun. At least when I got to the gym I had plenty of energy to burn off! I did weights and a little cardio and had a good workout. When I got home I think my whole house was grumpy. I figured since everyone was grumpy I'd go ahead and just put them to work. The kids folded clothes (while grumbling loudly) and put them up while I cleaned the kitchen. I'd been letting them do it, but it needed to be cleaned properly. They seem to forget that wiping off counters and the table are part of the job. I remember my mom fussing about the same things. Then they watched me sort and fold all of the socks (large basket full) while we discussed why people get married and then decide they don't want to stay that way and they could not understand why someone would do that. A hard subject for them to grasp. But I was glad they felt comfortable talking with me about it. Barry was at the store and then went up and seranaded us with his banjo. He is getting really good. I'm so tired right now I don't know if what I'm writing makes sense so ya'll forgive my distracted mind. It is time for a shower and then bed.

Sweet Dreams!

  1. How do you adequately express to someone how much their determination, dedicated efforts and willingness to share has encouraged you? Well you just tell them! Ms. Laura I’m couldn’t be more proud of you if you were my child. 20 pounds or 120 pounds of weight is just a numbers thing, you’ve already made the changes were it counts. You’re shedding the emotional baggage that can accompany carrying extra weight, you’ve released the weight of carrying everything inside and limiting how much you share with others, but more importantly you’ve regain confidence and faith in yourself and your strength. For these things I am truly proud of you. I know what it takes to allow yourself to remain so open and invite everyone on this journey with you, and I don’t take it lightly. Thank you for considering us all worthy to share this awesome, life changing experience with you and your family.

    Beaming With Sincere Delight,
