whoop whoop!
Its been a few days since I stepped on a scale, and today I decided to give it a whirl, well I'm down 3-4 more pounds! That makes right at 20lbs gone since march-ish timeframe! Happy dance!
More good news for our household, Harold got a call back about a possible job, they are flying him to Oklahoma next week for training, sounds good, crossing fingers! He is also attending a job fair today and has been following up on other leads. Things are looking up.:)

stepping into the light
Since I'm putting negative things, and negative people behind me, its time to get my head back into the mindset I'd rather be in, time to use my energy in positive things.
In December and January timeframe I had spoke about doing weight loss surgery, well I didn't. Not saying I wont ever, but right now isn't the time, I'm not doing any crash diets, but small gradual changes in food preparation, meal planning, portion sizes, being mindful of what goes into my body. Now its not a huge loss like I would have seen with surgery but since March timeframe I've lost about 17lbs. I'm happy, I'm content knowing I am getting healthier. My next goals are to get more active and to work on my water intake. Small changes seem to work better for me so I'm staying with what works.
My mood has been better with my boys, we still have bad days but were dealing with meltdowns and getting thru them. They are still doing school, though we have been on a 2 week break. I'm met with more willingness and less resistance, I love it!
I'm slowly working on better menu planning, more homemade food, more bulk cooking, purging things from our home and keeping only what we need and use, and finding contentment with simpler things. I feel wonderful and plan to continue. I hope to be paying off debt in a big way soon and living debt free. Life is about more than what you have, wear, or drive, I don't need these things to feel good about myself. Also working on lowering bills, and conserving energy, protecting earth one kilowatt and 1 can recycled at a time. Yes I admit it, I'm a tree hugging hippy, and if you call me that ill take it as a compliment.
Peace-love-and stress less

life goes on
So I've had many trying moments with a certian person in my life, a person I thought was a true friend, a shoulder, a sister. I suppose I was wrong, I suppose unless I put her on a pedastal, and am at her side every time she needs that I'm just not a good enough friend for her to waste her time with. I'm at a place that I'm okay with that, I'm okay with not trying to jump thru hoops, not feeling guilty, not getting emotionally drained, I'm at a point that its okay to have her as an acquaintance and nothing more. It is a relief actually I suppose because I was so emotionally wrapped up in pleasing her and wanting to be friends, I feel a weight lifted and feel a new sense of renewal and a more optimistic outlook on life. I guess its true, life goes on...
Thank you to a very special friend for helping me realize its not worth my energy and my life will be brighter. I'm blessed to have the wonderful beautiful friends in my life. She is a ray of sunshine, and I get to spend 40-60hours a week with her. Blessed beyond measures.
My advice to you today, if there is something or someone in your life holding a negative impact on you.....let it/them go.spread your wings and fly away.
