Thought I would check in. I honestly don't know what has happened to my willpower. I know I want to lose weight but I haven't wanted it bad enough lately I guess. It has been a crazy past few days. Everyone is sick. Cody is having some serious problems with diverticulitis. At least I hope that is all that is is. He has a swollen place on his side that he has had for months and he has been so sick off & on for awhile now and he FINALLY went to the doctor. Well his colon is swollen and he has an infection. They are giving him antibiotics but the swelling hasn't gone down. When we get the money or insurance with my new job he will have to go in to see a specialist. The girls have the flu I think. They have ran fever for a week now. I caught it yesterday. I went to my first class last night and my eye is matting up and I have aches & fever. I had chills last night I guess from the fever because I woke up freezing and shaking and my temp was 100.3. This will be my last week at work. They have distributed my work load and can let me leave a little earlier than the 2 weeks notice. I hate that I am not on track with my woe but I think once we all get over being sick and things get back to normal I will be able to do better.
