Annabelle3117's Journal, 25 August 2015

Off to a lazy start this morning. All last year I drove my son to school in the morning because he preferred to spend as much time with me as possible. This morning he chose to ride the bus with his buddies. *sigh* I won't stifle his independence by forcing him to let me drive him lol. Although I am so proud of the little man he is becoming it's always sad letting go, a little bit at a time. Time for another baby! lol

So, once the kids got on the bus I went back to bed for a couple hours. Fudge it, that's what I said lol. I don't think I've gotten more than six solid hours of sleep in about five days so it was rest much needed. I woke up slowly, enjoyed my coffee in peace and quiet. I truly am living the dream here. If only it would warm up outside. Jeez Louise, it's in the sixties... in august!!!

Yesterday I did end up taking the dog for a walk. He (the dog) sure does love the kids being in school, just him and I now. Today I think I will take myself out for a bike ride after lunch. Something low impact on my knee, which is kind of sore today after the high steps of the weekend. Then class tonight. We are reviewing for our IV therapy competency which is tomorrow evening. I'm not really nervous, I have spent a lot of time practicing and I've had an excellent instructor.

I updated my calorie intake for Friday. I forgot all about it until this morning actually. I spent the day prepping for clinicals and running the kiddos to their orientations. That evening my husband took me out for Mexican for dinner so my intake was high. However, after plugging the day in as well as I can it still shows a small deficit. Lots of deficits over the last two weeks. Hoping the scale will have something to show for it Friday since it gave me nothing last week. So many variables in this weight loss game, no guarantees and never a sure thing. We just have to keep on and trust the process.

Make it great, buddies!

I'll trade you temperatures. Texas is brutal in the summer. In the 80s with high humidity at 10:00 at night. Makes outdoor workouts very uncomfortable. Where are you in that it is in the 60s (general part of the globe)? I seriously want to move somewhere cooler.

I love the last thing you wrote - so true. So many variables in the weight loss game and we just need to trust the process.

One thing good about the cooler weather - at least for me - it's easier to lose weight.

Oh it's not usually cool here in August mattstoc! I live in Ohio, and we are supposed to be very hot in the summer and that's how I prefer it. :) What I love about Ohio is that we get the best of every season, hot summers, beautiful fall's, snowy winters and great green springs. I just get irritated when they aren't what they're supposed to be. Thanks for the support everyone :)
