Well, not much of a loss but I'll take it!! .3 lbs down! Yay!

Also Happy Arbor Day! Where I work plants a tree every year. This year the tree is being planted across the street from my office. I actually have a Japanese maple at home I need to get in the ground, going to arm the older children with shovels and make them dig. My job will soley be supervising and making sure the tree is planted at the angle that shows it off from the start of the garden path. ^_^ The red is really dramatic against the green of the woods behind our home. I also have a snowball viburnum to plant as well, so going to really make them work. lol.

So pain today is worse than yesterday. My lower back, right at the spine is sore. I keep getting a bee sting sensation, and my left leg has increased numbness down the back of it, and random pinprick sensations. The cold brick walls in my office feel lovely on my back thought. I usually lean back in my office manager's office when I'm speaking with her. And today It just felt so good. I may pick up my cold pack and bring it to work with me after lunch. I think it will help. Wish I would have remembered it this morning, but you know what they say about hindsight.

Bittersweet moment this morning. My tiny terror is almost 2. And a few days ago I got a call saying they had an opening in daycare she's been wait listed for since she was 3 months old. She will be starting there next week in the 2 yr old room and they will start potty training her from that point on as well. She's been ready for potty training for while now, but her current daycare was not willing to do that. And even though I've been trying at home with her, I only have her 2 full days on the weekend. And only have her for a couple hours in the morning and about 3hrs at night on week days. So my baby is growing up. She's starting to speak in 3-4 word sentences too. Gonna stop myself here...could talk about kids all day..

So goals for today. Be productive. Be positive. Take a moment to enjoy the nice weather before summer really and truly gets here. Be mindful of what I stuff my face with. Have a Great Day Everyone!!
