Feeling a little BLAH....

My sister from Ottawa just told me that she won't be able to come for a visit next month. It probably won't be until May. The good news to this is that the whole family will be able to come in May. I haven't seen my sister since I was 17 and, due to circumstances beyond my control, hadn't had ANY contact with her until only 4 months ago. I'm a bit disappointed but it will be better seeing everyone in her family than just parts of it!! My kids are excited to meet her--I never really told them I had a sister because it had been 16-17 years since I'd last heard of her. It's funny how kids just accept things that we adults stress over. It's been a weird but good journey over the last few months getting to know her........again.

It wasn't so bad :[

I weighed myself this morning and I was up 1 lb. No biggie. I'll just have to watch it over the weekend and be more aware of what passes these lips.
This weekend, I'm getting my hair done and then the brakes on my van--it's never ending. My DD has a b-day party to go to which has a theme. Enough with these freakin' theme parties!! These kids are 7 and 8--they don't care what movie character everyone else is supposed to be. I'm looking forward to relaxing by the fire with DH tonight--it's been a LONG week.

WI tomorrow.......

It's Thursday and I weigh myself tomorrow....it's not going to be good. Bakery + debit must be over $10=6 buttertarts that I DID NOT need! Why do we sabotage ourselves???!! The good news is I only had half of one, I didn't like them.
Work is back to normal. The office manager is back and in a bit of a snit--I think she thought the office would fall apart without her. She left early which was actually kind of nice. Everyone seems to be more relaxed when she isn't there. She's a bit of a hypochondriac and we all get sick of listening to it.
My cat has a bladder infection and spent the night lastnight, at the vets. DH picked him up this afternoon, the vet is supposed to call once he gets the bloodwork back just to make sure he's ok. He's 13 years old and the vet seemed concerned about how far this infection had gotten. Poor Fred.

I lost!!! I lost!!

It's Friday and I weighed myself this morning---------I lost 4 lbs!! I'm in shock!! I know it won't always be like that but it definately makes you feel like a million bucks! I'm still a little hungry, more so in the evenings at around 8:30 but I've resisted eating late and obviously it's paid off. I've gotten a lot of support from WW message boards and quite a few laughs! My goal for Feb.14 is to have lost a total of 10 lbs.

We don't have much going on this weekend, it's kind of nice. I've had a week from hell at work and really need to relax.

WOOOOHOOO!! 4 lbs!!!!

Day 3 of WW

I'm not a happy camper right now--I'm hungry. I still have chocolate left over from Christmas that seems to be calling me from it's hiding place. UGH!!! I've told my hubby that I'm trying to lose weight and he makes bacon, eggs and homefries for dinner tonight--which I ate because I'm starving!!! Oh well, atleast I've cut out one coffee in the morning, that should help.
It looks like we'll be getting some visitors next month--my half sister and neice are coming to visit for a few days. It's been a LONG time since we've seen each other--it's a long story--I'm not sure I want to post on it yet. I'm excited but also a little nervous, it's been about 15 years since we last saw each other.

A new start

Well, I'm tired of being over-weight and I stopped the whole weight watcher's thing about a year ago. I'm starting to post again on the WW board so hopefully it will help. I've been belly dancing on Sundays and it's getting to be more of a work out than before. It's nice to do exercise AND enjoy it!!

Happy New Year!!

We had fun last night and I'm not hung over this morning which is a real positive!! We had a few friends over and played poker--my first time--and ended up in bed at 3 am. I'm a little tired right now, I might have a nap later! Back to work tomorrow :(, it's going to be a nightmare since we've been closed since the 22nd. Oh well, what are you going to do?
