Birthdays

So birthdays and Mother's Day are two of the best days of the year.  Your children seem to try extra hard to not fight and to do thier chores and to be nice to you.  It is wonderful, I know they love me everyother day of the year too but when they put forth that extra effort it makes it all the more special.
On the other hand, when you have children who act the way they do on your birthday every day, you know they have the true love, respect and maturity that makes your heart soar. There is no doubt that they have grown into more than you could have ever expected.
I am so greatful for the children I have they are truely wonderful.....

The Pounds

So I wrote down all my wieghts last week so I could record them when I had time, well now I can't remember where I wrote them.  So I will go from memory.  Monday 152.8, Tuesday 152.4, Wednesday 151.6, Thursday 151.0, Then I didn't weight in on the weekend and Today is was 153.2,  I guess I need to start weighing in on the weekends too.  I did discover though that I can't go completely without carbs, it actually made me crave them worse than I ever had.  So just cutting back helps me more.  Also if I know I'm going to be weighing myself in the morning I eat less.  I still have not been motivated into excercising yet.  I get all ready to go run or walk or do yoga but I just find so many other things that need done instead.  I know I need to be healthier and that should be a top priority for me but I just need to change my mind set for it first.  Just doing it to lose weight or run a half marathon with my sister, daughter and niece just isn't the motivation I can use to propell myself.
